"How much can VIP users get away with?"
Uploaders who have proven themselves trustworthy can "get away with" some things that members who have not can not; but there is no list of specifics (not even a private one). Equally, there are some things VIP users cannot get away with that ordinary members can. Skulls can be (and are) revoked.
"Why isn't VIP users forced to atleast give a basic amount of info about their torrents?"
Nobody is forced to give any info about their torrents. If you believe TPB should force people to do things you are totally missing the point.
Downloaders are free to ignore any torrents for any reason and they should always exercise discretion.

Well, forcing were probably the wrong word, but you got what I was saying.
Drarbg for example is uploading torrents every day that are, according to me atleast, in the wrong category.
Looks like he did the same thing over @ KAT and he like, raged.. and shit.

I get what you're saying. But I (and TPB) disagree with you.
If you don't feel comfortable over downloading any given torrent for any given reason, don't download it. Nobody is forcing you. It is entirely and properly your call.
As for mis-categorisations? Aside from being something completely different to what you started this thread about, you can report those in the Report Torrents forum here as you have done. Moderators usually pick them up anyway (and take the matter up with uploaders who cause excessive amounts of work; that being one thing that can result in revocation of skulls).
TPB is not a kindergarten and doesn't pretend to be one. If it did start being dictatorial about exactly what must be said where and when then that would result in nothing but less torrents, which would be in nobodies best interests.

I guess you are right when it comes to dictating things and so on, in my head I've must have confused dictating with setting up rules.
I will start another thread for miscategorized torrents.
