I used to report AFK'ers but now I won't

As long reporting someone for afk meant they just missed out on honor I thought it was fair enough and went ahead and reported. Now that reporting someone for afk means I will be putting that person at risk of being suspended or banned I can't do it with a clear conscience.

Who am I judge why that person is afk? Maybe he had to go to the bathroom, pick up the phone or get the door. Under those circumstances I don't mind seeing them being reporting for afk and losing their honor. I don't, however, feel that I have the right to tell someone they can't go to the bathroom without their account being suspended.

I can assure you that if someone is going to be suspended, and have other actions taken against their account/character, that they are definitive abusers.

If someone is going to the bathroom 30 times a game, 100 games in a row, they may want to cut down on the cranberry juice.

(Of course, those are numbers I made up. We obviously won't be announcing thresholds, etc.)
