Appeals Committee. Disputed situations in tournaments.
It doesn't make sense to transfer real-world laws into the virtual world and think in the same categories.
In reality, a sporting event takes place in the presence of judges. When Mike Tyson bit his opponent in the ring, he was penalized by the referee with a point deduction. If this event had occurred in a tavern, it would have been judged by different judges and would not have been related to boxing.
The specifics of our relationships are that many of us have never even seen each other. Our "sporting matches" take place in front of a computer screen. In most cases, the judges have no way to be present at them.
We can only find out what happens during our/your matches from virtual sources (logs, screenshots, streams...). Therefore, if one of the opponents creates an unsportsmanlike atmosphere during the match, it is not his personal matter, but an integral part of the tournament. And the players will have to answer to the judges. If the tournament organizer makes unethical statements about the participant(s) of the tournament during the stream of the draw, the AC will again have to watch the stream and make a remark to such an organizer for disrespecting the tournament players.
If you argue about music, religion, or politics after the game, the AC is not concerned, and no one will review such complaints.
And if we talk about life in general, respecting each other will not make anyone worse off. We are all different, and that is good, it makes life more interesting. Therefore, it seems strange to read posts from freedom of speech fighters, which implies the freedom to swear at someone who is different from you.
