It's nice to know they did that on the EU realms at least. >.<
I played on the main NA RP server (at least by population standards) for many, many years and not a single instance of harassment, unless there were threats involved, were handled just from what I saw among friends/guilds. Reporting names didn't do much either unless it was super lewd or offensive and people used /shout channels for all kinds of annoying things, especially when a guild would be trying to use a zone for a big RP event. Most times the GM's simply said "put them on ignore".
It's just really hard to enforce much when you have so many players on a server, especially when not everyone who plays there is a roleplayer. I had only about 10% RPers in my guild and the rest of it was there for raiding, though I strictly enforced the "don't be an asshole on the server" rule with my folks. So you just never really know. Policing things like this really isn't a top priority unless again there are threats involved and it's really unfortunate.
I personally wouldn't move now if they did start tagging servers as RP Servers. After just getting a house and the nightmare that comes with that all over again, it's not worth it to me. I've also made a good amount of connections with players who are not RPers and I know they wouldn't move so, I'm pretty much content to stay put.
