You're overestimating the rate of occurrence of actual abuses of power. I'm not gonna pretend it never happens but members tend to see situations that aren't violations of rules or etiquette as situations that are such violations - it happens less often than many of you believe. Regardless, considering you're probably talking about a specific occurrence, my suggestion is to send a help request, which we can label as being solely intended for administrator attention. This will prevent any of us from making judgments that may be affected by bias toward any moderator in question and this will provide users the secure knowledge that the situation has been properly assessed, no matter the result.
