    I have no issue with this, but what about interactions that go on outside of the game? More than a small amount of the TMP drama went on in discord or other external methods of comunication and I would even go so far as to say with as calculating as the accused harrasser in that situation comes off (by alleged victim testimony) he would have known what he could and could not get away with saying in an ingame chat.

    The issue with SE accepting external proof of "harrassment" swings all the way back around to the fact that the playerbase can't even agree on what constitutes harrassment. If SE would accept discord text or recordings as evidence of harrassment how long would it be before some random offended person reported another player for saying "sorry friendo, your dps just isn't going to let us beat enrage since you're sitting at 2.5k at level 70. Try to beat up on a dummy some more" and trying to get that person banned?

    A wealth of issues crop up when SE tries to extend their sphere of influence beyond things they know as certifiably true as well. Someome could screenshot a similar looking au ra to my character and make a discord calling themself Moro Murasaki and say some rude things. SE has no way to prove that is me though, how can they punish me for those actions? The answer is they can't and shouldn't.

    I'm all for legitimately abusive people getting in an appropriate amount of trouble for their actions but as good as "yeah ban away, harrassers are evil" might feel to say you have to consider the implications of how such a policy could be implimented.

    Let me be clear - if someone is in ingame chat and there were chat logs of them doing all the things the accused harrasser in the TMP story did I say 100% yes ban away because there is indisputable evidence but without something concrete (and honestly with little more than multiple anecdotes) there is no way a ban is justifiable right now.

    This is sexism! It should be 50/50! How can the men dominate in dying! Women should have equal and unhindered rights to die too!
    Don't forget about deaths in the workplace and suicide rates. Men dominate those as well. Where is the equality?
