Wasn't this already settled in your other thread? You deserved your punishment. But to answer your request, this particular game you were asking for reports, which is considered harassment. More than enough for a strike in the system.

I like how this is just game 3, I'm going to assume you have game one and two chatlogs but are refusing to show it for obvious reasons!

RIPeace: report zed pls RIPeace: super toxic all game long RIPeace: u are so salt RIPeace: gg reported

Also, as mentioned by sarutobi, this is just game 3. As it happens, I remember you submitted all 3 games yesterday and had far more egregious violations in those. (because yes, let's agree this chatlog isn't quite so bad, but it is in violation of the rules). Don't report beg... Just ignore and report.

I never realized that asking for somebody to be reported was punishable. The point of doing so, more than actually trying to get multiple reports, is to let the person know they are doing something so unacceptable that you think it warrants multiple reports. Asking for reports is a behaviour that achieves a specific goal without being derogatory or mean to the other player. Under what reasoning does it constitute harrassment, which by its nature should refer to behaviour of a repetitive nature, for example a series of messages? Any single action or message by itself cannot be harrassment, right?

It is considered harassment because some people like to use the threat of a report to try to bully people into doing what they want. There is no benefit in calling for reports since one report is as good as nine reports are by the system (i.e. all it takes is just one report to flag the game for review).

I get how it would be punishable if it was used in an "do this or that or else" context, however if you really just want to let somebody to know that their behaviour is unacceptable. If you simply tell them they won't take it seriously enough for them to start even considering that their behaviour is wrong. As far as I know the only thing nowdays that gets actually punished is toxicity in chat, so any change in other behaviour can only come if people know they are being reported for their offenses.

As far as the term "harrassment" goes I still think it's inappropriate even if we assume that the action itself is not acceptable behaviour within the game. My argument for this is outlined in my previous message.
