As I log in to [Removed] it reminds me of every other time I have seen this garbage spewed forth, along with the other spam, racial jokes, and every other form of garbage that is not only common, but nowadays expected to be, in general, trade and say

Make the rules stricter if need be, so when people are reported or informed of the rules, the responce isnt a well deserved "Lulz Blizzard wont do anything anyway" . Have a few GM's monitor trade chat for abit on random servers during peak time. People will get the message if a few ban hammers are thrown.

People Must accept the TOS before they can play, but the enforcement is laughable, and everyone knows it is. I arady knew, with other servers down, that there would be plenty of trolls out and about, but it seems that the enforcment is so lacadasial that the people who are very racial are there everytime. With no exception.

Seriously. Enfoce your TOS. its not rocket science

We do enforce our Terms of Use, Enwan. An example of how this system works can be found in the following Support Article.

If you feel that our policies or methods should change in some way I recommend posting in the Suggestion forum. Keep in mind that our goal is to educate our player base, not simply suspend or close their accounts, and we in no means are going to "make examples of people".

If you find chat that you believe violates our Terms of Use we ask that you submit an in-game petition or write to [email protected]. Provide the name of the character, and the realm if this happened in a cross realm instance, the approximate time and if you can a sample of what was said.

I understand the frustration that this behavior can cause, all I can do is ask that you and the others on your realm continue to report any possible violations that you find.
