    What would chat logs prove? Unless you mean the specific battle log.
    Generally GMs take action based on chat logs. For example, if you get bullied by randoms you can ask in chat for them to stop and then use those logs to report them if they don't. Ideally, they would respond and say something incriminating back to you. It's kind of a silly system honestly.

    I accidently pulled aggro on a boss in a 4-man once since 9/10 tanks just rush in and pull immediately and I didn't want to be several GCD behind and just waste more time as a result of waiting but the tank that time was actually waiting. As "payback" he then sprinted towards the next area only to suddenly halt and have me run in and get first aggro on the mobs, letting them kill me and saying "oops lag".

    I didn't really feel bothered by that incident though since he wasn't an elitist player but rather an "offended casual" who probably thought I was an arrogant elitist after my aggro pull on the boss so I just didn't think about it more but I noted how easy it is to manipulate chat logs with innocent coverups. More ill willed players such as those I encountered in the 24-man would probably have known what to say and at the time I felt it best to wait since I don't trust my own temper in those situations.

    They can't really "oops lag" multiple people Rescuing you into things. Especially if you tell them to stop and they continue to do it anyway. They can really only claim a misclick once as well, so it's important to point it out as it happens for the sake of the logs later. Communication is important, so if you just stay silent as they do it there won't be much evidence of it if you decide to report it later.
