I think they do, from time to time. When needed.

It used to. Apparently the Site Admins have decided it's too much of a bother now.

I have been told they'll make an announcement about game moderation soon. Whatever "soon" may mean...

There used to be a list of banned players that also gave the reason why they got banned.

I'll be waiting with baited breath. The last few announcements regarding Game Moderation were soooooooooooooooo helpful to the situation.

User 380493 has been banned since the new game mod team came into place.

Why do you assume they are doing nothing just because you cannot see what they are doing or have a personnal agenda on who should be banned?

"Justice should not only be done, but should manifestly and undoubtedly be seen to be done."

Edit: A bonus point for anyone who can find the connection between Lord Hewart and chess. A clue - it was to do with a famous murder case in which he overturned the guilty verdict in the subsequent appeal.
