Everyone have different sensibilities. What might seem offensive to you might not be to someone else, and vice versa. There is no reason to think that GM will arbitrarily draw a line to say how thick of a skin people should have.

Besides, there is absolutly nothing in these rules or the official lodestone announcement that proves your claim. If anything, they literally just said that they will now get involved, and that it was the biggest change in their policy that they ever made. People have the right to express their concerns about the worst case scenario. You brushing that off so easily achieve absolutly nothing and can even be quite detrimental.

The "better be safe than sorry" approach very much applies here.
By reading the logs. They aren't just going to accept any claim of "I was offended" and automatically punish the accused. That's utterly ridiculous.

Yes, the GMs will have objective criteria by which to judge if something reported actually qualifies as "emotionally distressful".
