World of Warcraft has been in decline and a lot of WoW refugees have been arriving here especially with the promotions SE has been putting out.This is going to accomplish the opposite of what they are trying to do. Instead of people working out their differences or simply blacklisting, now you will have an overly sensitive vocal minority reporting everyone every time their feelers get a little hurt. The devs won't be deciding these as it would simply be too much for them so this will be put into the customer service branch and can easily be interpreted(since many of these policies are subjective) to punish anyone that is not lock step with the SJW narrative. Thus people will communicate less, and walk on eggshells, not more. Lastly, this game already
has one of the best communities in gaming, so none of this is really needed and the previous policy was working rather well. Bad move and I hope they will come to their senses, but I doubt it. Already questioning if I should resub.
I believe SE is trying to preserve the community and these rules are to prevent the game from turning toxic like WoW can be.
I understand the reasoning, a simply think this will not accomplish their goal, and its unnecessary, as the FFXIV community does a pretty decent job of stopping toxicity on it's own. At least in my experience.
