Are you entirely sure this was s-- harassments? A lot of people say suck a blank as a way to tell you to shut up or leave them alone. Also
What do you mean “trespass”? Do you want blizzard to find and kidnap people who say mean things online?

Does that topic say anything like that? NO. It does not. Trespassing is sending someone a legal notice that they are permanently barred from using their services and if they are discovered to use the service again. That they will be served a court notice for encroachment.
As for what was said. NO, I can’t provide screen captures of the conversation or the context because of how disgusting and lewd the conversation was directed at me. No, I did not instigate a fight in chat.
Yeah, people have always wondered why things like “gg ez” are automatically filtered, yet racial slurs aren’t.
Wish they’d update this stuff.

Yeah but filtering racial slurs is gamercide

Today’s kids won’t survive MW2 lobby for 3 sec. If you found the guy annoying just mute him in both voice chat and text chat, the options are sitting right there, what more do you want?

Get off your high horse. Seriously, you are disrespecting the victims of Blizz. You start off by talking about Blizz’s sexual harassment which is indeed just as vile and disgusting as you describe BUT then you go and apply to the entire OW playerbase? You are just delusional at this point. You know, I just had someone in a game say “good little s*** anna”. Is this gross, disgusting, vile, and wrong? Absolutely. But is it sexual harassment? No. You see, you can’t sexually harass FICTIONAL CHARTERS. Please don’t disrespect the REAL WOMEN who were horribly abused by applying their plight to fictional characters.

I hope the US courts are ready to deal with 75% of Overwatch’s playerbase, lmao 
Sorry OP, but this is just a very unrealistic expectation.

They most certainly are. The default settings for the profanity filter includes racial slurs as well. If you see them it’s because you disabled it.

Only English ones, not other languages. Instead the profanity filter censors stuff that are just normal words in other languages.
While I think hardware permabanning a person forever for typing something rude is a little extreme,
I do think they could at least auto-change these kinda slurs/words into something different, like they do when you try to type gg ez and it auto-changes into reinhardt phrases

The current head of blizzard sells boosts in WoW despite the negative of what it does to the game. That should tell you enough about how much they care to stop any bad behavior within their company or games.

That is really great to know such “kind” folks really do exist in this game and what our community is really about . 
If that is where we are headed. We signed our own expiration date for this game and It just goes to show why we do NOT have Overwatch 2 out. Why would anyone in their right state of mind give toxic folks anything wonderful to enjoy anymore, if all we do is “this”.
Disgusting.
Let’s hope the authorities work to the best of their ability to find out what’s been happening at Blizzard for these past several years.
