Does Verbal Abuse Reporting Even Do Anything?

#1 - April 24, 2014, 8:24 a.m.

I am asking because in last 3 days I have reported about 5 Abbadon/Gunnar players who I have killed(either solo or in group) and afterwards got whispered by them. Whispers that usually started with f*kitten , dumba*s etc… And this is just for 3 past days, got plenty of these in sPvP too, and my block list is swelling with people, actually it is 3 times larger than my friends list.
So, does Anet ever take any steps toward verbal abusing people? Or is this option just for show? Is all what I’d like to know.

All in game reports are read and acted upon, we have GM’s that literally just sit there and watch “velocity reports” (named as such due to the speed of the reports being made). As you might guess there are generally a significant amount of these reports happening at any given moment and due to this we cannot respond to them.

Obviously we need to investigate all claims that come in and then action them if we have proof (chat logs etc.), there is a strict disciplinary structure that is followed and players that are found to be breaking this code of conduct are dealt with accordingly.

I hope this answers your question
