I know how it might feel when someone is being toxic, though know that mirroring their behaviour isn't exactly the best step to take.
(Not saying that's something what you've done since I lack context in here of course, though I'm just saying this overall for any situation like this)
Some of these toxic players want to upset other players, by mirroring their behaviour you're pretty much playing into their hands.
It's also important to note that the rules still apply, regardless of how other players are acting.
I'm not going to start being rude if someone else is being rude, from what I know, it's expected that everyone should treat everyone with respect.
If someone is being toxic then the best step is to report and ignore it.
The game offers chat filtering and methods to mute players, which could make it easier ignoring these types of players.
The reason why certain posts like this get edited/removed for naming and shaming isn't because EA is trying to protect these types of players.
Players can have duplicate names in this game, which could be problematic in this case.
If someone were to make a post about a toxic player called BigBen12 and it would get a lot of traction, chances are people that saw the post will instantly assume any player with the name BigBen12 is this player, which could result in even more toxicity towards players with such names.
Overall it's also done to prevent witch hunts, as there have been cases in the past where a group of players try to track down such players and harass them, which should also be avoided.
- 3 years ago@XHelperZ Guy told my wife, that he hopes her mom dies..tis a no-brainer to cover it and the more so to say "Yea nah he did all good", whiler other folks say way less offensive things and get ban hammered.

Well of course it ain't right for people to say such things to others and it's completely understandable if you want to react to such things.
Though ignoring in this case would still be the best option as any kind of bad behaviour could be actioned, the context behind it really doesn't matter as it's expected that people follow the rules.
Punishments differ per player and well, that's something the TOS team decides separately per case.
Personally I don't always agree with the decisions made by the TOS team.
But it's important to keep in mind that rules should be followed by both parties, doesn't really matter how another acts.
(I'm sure in some cases there is some leniency, though it's best to just assume zero-tolerance and to just try to avoid as much drama as possible)
Is that really necessary?
I mean, I devote a small portion of my time discussing or helping others, which I wouldn't really consider throwing my life away.
Though, you are here, complaining and insulting people with your time, quite frankly it seems like you're wasting your time to be quite rude, such a shame.
