    The thing is, in this day of discord & social media, many people can easily harass players without ever doing it in-game and incite witch-hunts outside of the jurisdiction Square Enix controls (I've even seen cases of witch-hunts happen in discords against players for various reasons). It was the crux of a huge drama that happened to Arthars where his actions out of game caused targeted harassment & witch-hunting against a single player on the JP datacenter because all his fans knew who reported him, to the point Square made an exception to their 'no outside sources as evidence' clause just to temp ban him to quell the drama storm that occurred.

    Zfz is correct in that its effectively impossible for the GMs to give information about why the report was brought forth outside of the ToS clause it violated and leave the person to speculate. Square quite clearly aims to promote people reporting bad behavior through giving reporters anonymity protection, so the system won't ever be changing, whether we like it or not.

    Hence why some players simply don't speak outside of cliques/closeknit groups, or go speak in discord instead.
