Right so I should turn a blind eye to any form of harassment just because it didn't happen to me. Sounds like a wonderful healthy way to maintain a friendly community.

By the way it is my business if I'm in the group where the harassment happened. I have little choice but watch it happen. I have to endure the dungeon progress slowing down or coming to a standstill because of it. I have to wait for someone else to join the group if someone leaves over it. Or I could leave if watching it bothered me enough, in which case I do feel personally offended by it.

Two weeks ago I left a group because two players were harassing a sprout tank. I advised him to report them and I left because I couldn't stand being in their company anymore. I go to dungeons to kill things and get loot. Not to watch people be horrible to a sprout and troll him. This was not me being offended on the sprout's behalf. I was offended because I went in to get some xp and what I got was two people being bullies making the experience unpleasant.

But apparently I'm not allowed to find something unpleasant because I wasn't the primary target. Hmm.
