1-2 people for not paying for runs (only if I have screenshots though)
Several people for being genuinely filthy in local
Odd person for offensive character names (that weren't funny)
Bots if I'm fast enough

I've only ever reported Bots and leechers. Nothing else annoys me enough to make me bothered about anything else.

In the past I've reported gold sellers, obvious bots (the Mo/Me's called Askskjjdjfhha Dsjfjjhfah etc in huge conga lines following set patterns around outposts and getting stuck on the exit signpost), leechers in AB, people involved in racist insult exchanges when arguing about pointless crap in cities, people talking in graphic detail about the sex acts they'd like to perform on sundry players and NPCs, people impersonating ANet employees, people with blatantly offensive names, people spamming trade in local, scammers... yeah you name it I've reported it. Go me.

Nowadays I can't be bothered. If your parents didn't teach you how to behave, I'm not wasting my time trying to educate you, on top of which I refuse to use a function that can be abused to get someone autobanned without human investigation. I'd rather just play the game and have fun.

1 guy for scamming.
2 or 3 guys for inappropriate name.
an uncountable number for leeching or botting in pvp. (and i don't mean just using the ingame /report function. before that i used to screenshot and send to support)

I was playing some BYOB GvG. There was an elitist PvP'er there, he requested that i run heals, as the other monk was prot.
During the game, he decides to leeroy into the opposing team, no word on vent. He dies. He then says "learn 2 prot nubzor" (note he asked me to go heal, and guardian would not have saved his ass).
Following the match he spewed abuse at me, accusing me of having as many things as he could find by google searching "mental illness" and "retardation".
He got a 72hr ban.
After the ban he figures it was me (all the abuse was in private). Starts his google searches again. Another ban, i belive it was longer this time, unsure of exact amount.

for leachers, i send to support, /report doesnt do anything. I make sure i have multiple screenshots (to prove its not a slow loader/one off/"Oh, crap, i actualy got a match")

I've reported a few names which were offensive in Dutch, but obviously got passed the filter during name creation. Names that would get you a ban on the spot if made in English.

One of those people even made a thread about his name getting banned on Guru.

I only report people who:
- try to scam me (with screenshots if needed)
- try to sell/buy GW accounts in the GToB
- have really offensive names (political or racist. I can stand a little clever pottymouth in names)
- start swearing at me after I point out they're spamming in the wrong channel, or doing something else that's considered rude.
- start swearing for no reason at all.

But all in all, that's not a whole lot fortunately. I rarely really have to report someone. But then I play with my alliance mostly.

and the countless amounts of kids who open their crap-traps spewing idiotic phrases that make the average newbie go "wtf?".

i've reported people for scamming me at the end of runs.
I've reported morons who don't know how to act in public.
I've reported kids who spam-draw on the map with everyone's favorite male appendix.
I've reported spam in chat in partys, too.

But that's about it. None of which got perma bans as far as I know.

I don't remember names, and I wouldn't care to list them here anyway, but I've reported two people in four years of playing. One for violent and threatening language, and the other for violent racist remarks. Both got banned.

Anyone else?

As long as no one mentions any names everything will be fine.
I report bots and leechers in JQ, FA, AB, etc.

Beyond that, I don't really care. People can argue with me, say what they want, be as loud or obnoxious as they please. I enjoy a good fight and I get an even better laugh out of it 99% of the time. The other 1% of the time I can shut off chat, hit ignore, or just go elsewhere because I'm usually doing something anyway. It doesn't bother me a bit.

I've reported people but only very rarely. Mostly it's for bad language, especially at Balthazar's Temple, but it takes more than an occassional f-bomb to set me off. You have to really be rude/racist/nasty to get my attention. I mean, you wouldn't stand on a street corner and yell rude/nasty/racists comments in public (I guess you would if you had a mental illness), so don't do it in local/public chat... it's just a complete lack of manners and it truly puts the guilty party in a poor light. Bad language doesn't make people look cool, it makes them look moronic and uneducated. Funny how people lose their manners when they're anonymous.

P.S. I REALLY want to report leechers in AB but I'm afraid to.

I don't follow up on who I report, which are usually leechers/bots.

I report all the time and NEVER get hexed. Ever since the system was upgraded I almost feel like the game keeps a record of how many successful people you report and then doesn't' penalize you after if you get less than 1/3. Even with less than 1/3 I don't get hexed, but I only do report real leechers/bots.

some guy in ra once.
He was running an mm with dark bond. So i just said Minion masters dont work too well in pvp because of the lack of available corpses and them dying after every round.
I then got Pm'ed for about 10 minutes telling me to shut the f--k up because he is a well respected man who owns his own accounancy and that i need to stop cumming in a sock and need to hang myself and rid the world of me.
^ MY personal favourite.

Again Ra our whole team reported one warrior 3 times each in one game
first for verbal abuse as he was racist throughout to our team. Then for spamming as he shouts ni---s non stop on team chat. Then just for fun we did verbal abuse again.

If whoever reported Crystal story for verbal abuse reads this. That was some funny s-it

I usually don't report people unless they violently start to insult me/harass me with whispers. And when I do report people, I do it via the GW website, which actually gets people banned.

I've reported people that curse when they have lost thinking that'll make them win. I think mostly people that behave like they are 10 years old.

Twice for nasty racist slurs.
Twice for gold sellers who pm'ed me (no idea how they got my IGN).

I haven't used the /report feature. Those reports were submitted on the website. I don't know what the outcome was, but NCSoft did reply that they had reviewed the logs and unspecified action was taken.

I don't like the holier-than-thou report function, but I don't like racist slurs as well. There wes this guy in AB called SIEG HEIL FUHRER, people wanted to report, but I proposed to lolspike him every chance we got. I think he died about 30 times in 1 match. Much more fun then reporting imho ^^

I liek abuse, I turn local on when I monk in RA (I can't play monk worth ****) it's free entertainment.

I've reported a few inappropriate names. Say what you will, but seeing people run around with names stating hatred of various groups of people does detract from my enjoyment of the game...

Besides, I figure someone with a name like "Jewz Suk" or "Teen Raper" is only looking for attention, so I give it!

I can guarantee you that someone with an in game name such as that would never walk around with a t-shirt saying the same thing. It's amazing what anonymity will do for someone's inhibitions. And I agree, those names are for attention only, so they deserve all they get.

Used the report feature once. On a guy leeching in AB. For the 3rd round in a row.
I was unlucky enough to see him 3 times in a row, standing like a statue 2 steps from the starting point.

I don't care about language as that is what the language filter is for. Also what "un-check [pointless] chat channel" is for.

I probably haven't had local channel on in ~2 years.

I reported a few scammers back in the day. No idea what happened. But I really don't care about it anymore.

Too many prudes out there: especially the ones that have had many of characters' names forcibly changed via banning :P

I've only reported a few people for leeching in RA/AB/ect.

Language doesn't bother me enough to report, I shrug it off. If someone flames or insults me (especially in a pm) I just do the same back to them, I like to mess with them. After all, they wouldn't report me.

I've tried to report gold sellers (especially the ones that auto pm you) but they always leave the district to quickly and I'm too lazy to go to the site.

and lol@ people reporting for bad builds. As long as its not intentional laming, its not really a reportable offense. Thats nearly as bad as flaming a noob with a bad build.

Replace "Unreal Tournament 2004" with "Guild Wars" (or really, with *), and further proof.
