If Bullying is Illegal in Canada...

The following response was written by one of our new teammates. Because they are still in training and do not yet possess a forum account of their own, they shall be posting via proxy through me.

I believe this discussion has exhausted all merit and is rapidly approaching entropy. The name-calling, trivial bickering, and borderline discriminatory sentiments have no place in this forum and as such I’m going to take the safe route and lock this thread.

To address the original question, harassment is something we take very seriously in game and violations of our harassment policy are not tolerated, especially ongoing and repeated harassment. If you see chat or other behavior you feel is inappropriate or harassing, please do create an in-game petition or send an email to [email protected] detailing what happened. Be sure to include the name and realm of the offending character(s) and we will be happy to review the issue and take all appropriate actions, in accordance with our polices.

I would recommend addressing your question to a legal representative or a law enforcement agent in your area, as they may be better able to assist with issues pertaining to real-world repercussions.
