Do moderators read questions they delete?

Y!A's FAQ says that a question or answer will be removed if it's reported by one or more "reliable user." If the cirstance is more serious, then the Answers staff may remove a question or answer themselves after reviewing it. However, the majority of the time they're just automatically removed because of the way the Y!A system is designed. It's not the best design because there are waaaaaay too many trolls disguised as "reliable users" who are out to get other users they don't like by wrongfully reporting them.
