Updates to the Prohibited Activities in FINAL FANTASY XIV and Account Penalty Policy

And you can do all of the above without being a jerk. It's a shame that this seems to be a foreign concept to a lot of people, and yet they wonder why they get treated like children sometimes. They shouldn't need to be, but here we are.

Most of the time everyone does that without being a jerk. But, even when you aren't being a jerk, someone can take offense to criticism at all and use that as a justification to abuse reporting out of vindictiveness.

Too many people live in this utopia where they believe only positive and good human interaction is permissible, and tougher or more negative interaction shouldn't be.

No thanks. Welcome to the human experience. You are going to encounter people whom you disagree with, dislike, and speak their mind. If you can't handle that, then your whining shouldn't be catered to.

You have no idea just how relatable this is right now, or even for the last 12 hours.

You do understand that any report is going to be handled by an actual human being who is going to review the case and see if in fact the “jerk” was indeed being a “jerk”, right? It’s not just some nebulous automated process or a “gotcha” scam game.

Yes I'm aware an actual human being will likely handle the case. Until the tickets become too overwhelming and the cost for all the new GMs becomes nonsensical so they move to a more automated AI system. Furthermore, I dont trust people with discretionary power when too many people will abuse that power for ideological and personal reasons.
