And you WON'T see any.
/reports /petitions and the like are practically worthless these days. You can send one and waste hours hoping some Guide(!) might catch sight of one... read it... deem it worthy for bumping up the chain.. and do so all before the clock runs out.
No GM still around that game bothers with them directly. They only respond (maybe) to those Emails Linked to the EQ GM Webpage on Sony's EQ Support site.
Breathe easy.

Not true. I reported some asshole admiting (mostly) to training a raid I was in and rather than petitioning, just swore at him for an hour or so in /shout with the other 30 people.
About 5 hours later a guide asks me what i needed per my /report.

Best defense for harassment is /ignore command.

Did you have the MQ window active? Or did you for some reason choose not to use it.
I keep it active for precisely this reason, so I don't make this kind of mistake.

Ummm, that's why I use Telnet and with the following settings:
FilterMacro=2
UseMQChatWnd=0
Doing anything via the EQ client is asking for trouble. No matter how safe you feel using the MQ2Chat Window always remember you will type it in the wrong window, even if the command doesn't work there it will say something about not understanding it. Then do just what he did with a /report and bam you got suspended.
I guess what folks would like to know is what did Sony say to you and how long are you suspended?

though slightly unrelated I did a faux pau a few weaks ago. If I remember I typed a MQ command with a /g so the entire group saw it. I IMEADIATALLY retyped the message to appear as if I was trying to say somthing. So they saw "target npc nag" and I then typed like "our target gonna be naggy?". No one said anything. I have also seen others do similar mistakes and I knew what happened but did not say anything.
