Most recs (here I refer to long term losing or -ev players) are actually trying to make the best plays possible and those that are so bad they don't care do not know about the nuances of poker site policies and there effects on the workings of the game and player pools/player types.
Forums are very susceptible to sybil attacks and must be wary of them. It is why it is a call to the admin and (known human/existing/real) players rather than the mods.
I gave examples and there are countless more. The template is very prevalent and has been over the years.
