Report Retaliation?

I recently reported someone for verbal abuse, as they were, well, verbally abusing me unprovoked in game. This led me to think about the possibility of this individual reporting me (falsely) in retaliation should he get a warning or his account be suspended. Is this something that is taken into consideration when reports are reviewed? I know it sounds very childish, but he was pretty nasty to me and I wouldn’t put it past him.

We do a thorough review before action is taken, and those who submit false accusations are subject to suspensions, so I think you’re ok.
