Had a very similar experience. I've frequently found that kind of problem is a direct result of the community simply growing 'too large'. The only way to moderate is hit everyone even slightly suspected of being out of line with a brick.
Back in ye olden days of forums and boards, even flagrant transgression of rules were typically forgiven and you were dealt with like a human because moderators had time and care for the community and people.
