There's really no reason to be belligerent. Especially when most of the people here were only "correcting" you for your own sake. You seem to be laboring under the impression that we either like or at the very least are apathetic about the bots you called out. We aren't. Would you rather we said nothing and you got slapped with a ban instead?

You seem to understand that the forum guidelines include a zero-harassment policy and that 'naming and shaming' falls under that policy- i.e. it's against "the rules". What we seem to disagree on is if "the rules" are inherently "PC" (at the same time using PC in a manner that conveys negative connotations, which is another matter entirely). The fact of the matter is, this is a public forum for an online game that is played (and paid for) by an extremely large and a wildly diverse group. "The rules" have to be PC in this situation, if for no other reason than SE needs to cover their behind (note that I can't even use the word I would like to here, for the same reason) and make sure that no one, in this diverse group has legitimate grounds on which to base a complaint, let alone an actual lawsuit.

TL;DR- Anonymous people on the internet have tendency to act like children, so SE is forced to treat us like children, and make overly-strict rules to ensure that we all play nice.
