On moderated boards, the mod sometimes steps in when discussion is getting too heated or people are making personal attacks. Usually, they just have to post a brief reminder like, "Keep it civil" and things calm down.

Occasionally, a thread gets locked down when it's far off topic or people don't heed the friendly reminder.

Very rarely, someone is "sent on vacation" (banned for a while) due to repeated offenses.
