Seriously, what more do you expect me (or others) to do?
I've offered every option I can think of, and have even created a section when one of them asked.
If they don't want to come back, they don't want to come back. It's done.
As always on this forum, if you want those people to come back then you are going to have to do the work by coming back yourself and posting in TEA here and maybe they'll see the activity here and eventually they'll tip toe back? :-//

Can it be done at the forum level?
I think I've not seen any Supporters Lounge activity anywhere.
Maybe new member could have a predefined set of excluded parts where for example TEA is ticked out.

Boards can be excluded from membership levels, but not threads AFAIK. That's how the Supporters section works.
I think reporting can also be limited to membership levels, but it's newbies that have been doing the reporting. Even some of the people who have left are amoung the ones who have reported things.

Under 5 posts newbies ? :-//
That doesn't seem right that someone with so little engagement here can cry WOLF to moderators and potentially cause mayhem.
Exactly when does a new member obtain the right to report other members actions that may have been here for years and made 100's if not 1000's of posts ?
From the day they join ?

At the risk of misinterpreting someone else's opinions (which is too close to being a woke SJW!), I suspect (no more) that any issue might be to do with other participants welcoming people back.
Personally I concur with your attitude "If they don't want to come back, they don't want to come back. It's done."

Reporting isn't the key issue. Acting on "troublemaking non-participant newbie's" reports is the problem.
It will always be difficult for moderators to find the right balance, especially "light touch" moderators. Mistakes (with 20:20 hindsight) will be made all round; life goes on. Time to move on.

Oops, sorry, meant to say NOT newbies.
And as I said, I do believe some of the reporters were high standing TEA members.
