Dear Blizzard. (My apology)

Communication

When participating in communication of any kind (chat, voice communication, group finder), you are responsible for how you express yourself. You may not use language that could be offensive or vulgar to others.

Hate speech and discriminatory language is inappropriate, as is any obscene or disruptive language. Threatening or harassing another player is always unacceptable, regardless of language used. Violating any of these expectations will result in account restrictions. More serious and repeated violations will result in greater restrictions.

While we encourage you to report players that are behaving in a disrespectful manner, falsely reporting another player with the sole intent of restricting their gameplay is also unacceptable and will result in penalties to your account.

A player can be actioned if they are falsely reporting regularly, if they are targeting a specific player all of the time, if the player being reported is not breaking the rules. If your claim that players are targeting the OP for “no reason” is true, they will be handled by Blizzard.

You are making a lot of assumptions about the reports and the account actions. You only know your own reports. You do not know who else is reporting. You do not know what they are reporting. You don’t know how often they are reporting. You don’t know what report is being investigated.

Until this post I didn’t know who this player was. I may have reported them. It would have had nothing to do with them being known or having a Youtube channel. There were streamers and Youtubers who did the recent bug exploit and they got game suspensions for 31 days. There have been streamers and Youtubers that have had their accounts banned. Being known does not exempt you from the rules.
