Let's say you have a serious paid for topic going, and two people start chit-chatting in it.
It's not your fault there is off-topic chat
You have no way to prevent them from posting.
Even if you report their posts, all it will do is get your entire topic removed.

Mods should respond to individual posts when a report comes up.
I know modding every post that gets reported like this would take forever so, Allow more people to report posts instead of getting the invalid posts specified or post already reported message. Having it so each person could report a post once, would make it clear to the mods which posts just need to be completely removed...

At least add a feature to moderate the paid for topics (red, bold, italic title) in a slightly better manner, there is nothing more frustrating than having a topic be closed because someone was just looking for +1's

Not sure what you are meaning here.

Mods can remove whole topics if the whole thing needs be, or they can invalidate a single post and make the content non-viewable.

Well perhaps the mod should start using that more...
I did not know they had that ability, because it seems like they never use it.
They tend to just lock an entire topic.

On Paid topics they should be a little more choosey with locking the whole topic vs. simply deleting the posts that happen to be causing the infraction, because the author tends to get punished the most...

If it's not clear, I apologize.

Might also be worthless.. I've just seen a lot of people complaining about other people getting their paid topics locked lately.
Perhaps it's just a mod who prefers locking the whole thing...

Oh locking and deleting are different. ^_^
Moderators will only lock a thread if it is really "lock worthy"
They dont just lock it for a random few spam posts.

If the paid topic is locked for a reason you think is unjust or a mistake was made, PM a moderator to discuss.
But i have to imagine that most of the time, they dont make mistakes as often as you make it sound like they do.

I've seen "Inappropriate Post Content" in threads where specific posts will be deleted and the thread stays put.

I believe this is already implemented, at least, in part.

Edit: Here is an example of what I'm talking about. Specific posts get deleted, however, the thread is kept alive.
