Appeal ban for 2 weeks - abusive chat

You and it seems nearly anyone who is reported for anything believes the same thing. That stems mostly from not understanding how the entire process works, which is nearly invisible from the outside, so I get how it all continues to spread.

No, but you may wish to avoid sending people whispers calling them garbage over and over again.

Not exactly. I can definitely see the chat from others, which you mostly ignored, but it seems this started with you.

While our Code of Conduct prohibits that use of inappropriate language, toxicity in games has also become a severe problem in online games and our policies do extend to that as well.

That would be more for our Game Developers to decide but something like that is unlikely to ever happen. Due to privacy laws around the world there is no way we would be able to provide chat logs to other users.

It isn’t though. Over the years we have worked to use what automated systems and processes we can to make things easier overall, taking advantage of machine learning and other such options but it continues to be false that “it’s all automated these days”.

Especially in your case. The reporting system takes the reported logs and compiles them in a report for review. From there it is determined if the reported chat violates policy. IN your case though, this was entirely a manual review. The Game Master ran chat logs manually to verify complaints.

If you believe an error was made you’ll want to submit an appeal, that is the only means to have this reviewed.
