Because she could not prove to Blizzard who was behind the harassment, the only thing she could do to escape the situation was to quit the game

If a player chooses to not show certain skin, then no other player should be able to see it.
Hmm, any respectable forum would have banned the offenders. In this case the persons posting their fantasies and the screenshots.
Yes Blizzard can't do anything in such a case, because to them it's all hearsay. The people in her guild were idiots. Even if she posted the screens for attention seeking, I still don't see a problem with "revealing clothes" in a PEGI-12 game. I mean, there is nothing to see there.

Instead of quitting the game, wouldn't have a different choice of ingame attire been the much easier way? After all, yes skimpy stuff exists in low level (even in high level AQ robes etc) but there was always a choice. As long as she wan't a cutting edge raider (fat chance with that personality) it wouldn't have mattered.

Completely agreed on the second part. But IMHO that also goes for the reverse. If a player chooses to display skin, no other player should be able to cover it up.
