Maybe this is new information to everyone besides me and I'm just slow, so ignore me if that's the case.
Back in 2019 I received a GM warning for spamming the slap emote in Limsa (I, a new player at the time, didn't realise emotes also spammed the chat) - or of course, I assumed that's why I got a warning, as the GM never gave any details.
This is a common complaint I've heard against the GMs in this game, that they'll punish you but not tell you why. So I got to wondering, could GDPR requests be used here? Well, I made a GDPR request, and the answer is yes!
I was sent the full chat logs for the event I was warned for (yes, it was the Limsa slapping), containing only the things I put in chat as they can't give me other players personal data.
If you're an EU citizen and you'd like to learn more about a warning you received, just send a ticket to SE support. For those interested, here are the logs I received back (now knowing that this spammed chat, that must've been damn annoying, my apologies to everyone affected).
