Given that WoW seems to have completely failed in enforcing that, I severely doubt SE would be able to. I'd rather stay on a server with my friends where I can speak freely if wanted.
That said, they were a lot better about it in Vanilla/TBC. After that Activision came in, and rip caring about roleplayers.
Speaking freely? Dude. DUDE. C'mon. Don't you think we had some places to trashtalk OOC in public? Of course we do. Mostly trade district with the Market Boards were n1 spot, and later we got the Meme Roof. But that was all out of direct sight of RPers and didn't interfere with their roleplay. And if people were passing trough the trade district IC, no one would kick up a stink and go "Ew gross RPers." either. It was nice.
But the harassment thing? We sort of have this on Balmung aren't don't we? GM's aren't overly impressed with non-RPers harassing the shit out of RPers. Blizzard just added a clause specially for RPers, whereas I imagine with SE it just falls under "Don't harass people for enjoying x".
(I also honestly think you were trying to quote the /s and /yell thing and not so much the harassment clause, but I can't imagine you vouching for "LETS HARASS PEOPLE I DONT LIKE RPING LEL".)
