Is Etsy Corporate a Sincere Incompetent or Is Etsy Just Insincere?

I think OPUM had it right.  (OPUM -- Our People's Underworld Movement -- was an imaginary front for conspiracy orgs, made up by an executive editor of National Review back in the 1960s.)  OPUM sold packets of wacky little cards printed with make-you-think humor.  One card read:

A sincere incompetent should be judged competent until proven insincere.

Watching the antics on Etsy these days, my question is not about the company's competence.  It is about Etsy's sincerity.

For months now, international spam bots had been invading the Forums with massive posts of links (some working, some not) to various sites.  Etsy's brilliant forum mods claimed they could not stem the bot invasion, and we needed to keep reporting each post the bots threw in there.  I guess the whiz kidz finally figured out how to block the Forums spam because the bot messages have ceased.  Now the spammers have begun starting Teams of one (bot) member.  At last count, I found over 150 such teams started in the past 2-3 days.  More show up every hour.  Predictably, Etsy's mods now want users to report all those spam Teams...like they can't view the Teams list in order of most recently started and just delete them?  WTF?  Free clue to you, hipsters:  you are being paid to maintain the site by our fees fercryinoutloud so do your jobs already!

Seriously, what type of ecommerce site allows new users to register and form their own groups on day one?  Without having made a purchase or opening a shop?  What qualifications do users with no history of site activity have for starting their own Etsy users' group?

I don't for one minute believe that Etsy's staff cannot change the requirements for forming a Team, and delete the spammer teams without us reporting them.  Which means I don't believe that Etsy's employees are sincerely incompetent.   Not at all.
