Obviously there's no perfect system. But I think the main point of Homebrew's post was that VOPs containing real (and what politicians would call "actionable") information about other posters ought to be hidden, so that board mods, current and future, wouldn't be able to see or use it. Or pass it on to buddies.
I think perhaps all VOP violations should be reviewed by an admin. An Evil Mod could, for example, try to get an enemy jailed by removing a post as a VOP violation when it wasn't really one; maybe just a plain vanilla personal attack. As far as I can tell, VOPs ae relatively rare; probably there aren't more than a handful every day, so reviewing them wouldn't increase the admins' workload.
I don't think there's much question in anyone's mind what a real VOP is: it's information that would make it possible for others to stalk or harass that person in real life. Most who see it won't act on it, but the intention is to frighten and intimidate.
Naturally nothing can be done about the kind of thing that's posted Elswehere, in a place that evidently finds such behavior acceptable. What's mildly reassuring is that the information in question is often entirely incorrect. But it's posted because the poster believes it to be true, and therefore still constitutes a VOP.
