Default group strategy on stars

Before I went to bed tonight, I peeked in on a limit tourney on poker stars to see who some of my competition would be on tomorrows weekly freeroll round 2. I happened to stumble by the tournament right before the bubble and saw a table talking. They were agreeing as a group to slow play to allow the low stack of the tourney to make it through to the prizes. Regardless of your personal opinions on this, I was curious if this sort of thing is against pstars policy. In a normal cash tournament when you're on the bubble it is played hand for hand, on a free one I guess it isn't.

I guess my main question is while the prize pool is in the stages that forty people all get paid the same if a table agrees in the pstars chat to slow play to allow the entire table to move onto the next stage if pstars admin would do something about it, and if the people who do play like this should be reported by a bystander such as myself?

My personal opinion of this is that I don't care (unless I'm a low stack competing for the bubble). If a person can endear the table that much so that everyone will slow play their hands all the better for that person. What are everyone elses opinions on this?
