Mood.
As for this thread: all I can say is that nobody's going to get any better from the attitude(s) on display here. Challenging the community to show their worst against DTR is not something I would recommend, because no matter how large DTR is compared to the overall server population, I don't think that's going to be a fight you can win. But you've kind of already crossed that bridge, from the looks of it.

There's no wiggle room for a rule-based approach, either, or people will start getting sanctioned and banned left and right. Mostly groups of new players or indies. I don't even know how banning people for playing the game within their right as given by the rules would be justified.

Community Rules
General Conduct:
1.0 - Don't be a dick. It's a game, try to keep it fun for everyone playing it. Behavior that falls within the technical letter of the rules but not the spirit won't be tolerated.
I think PvP etiquette can in fact sink to such depths that it starts violating this rule. In fact, I'm afraid it already has. I think instead of further escalating things, we should do some introspection, and try to all do better in the future. Everyone makes mistakes, but let's not start making them intentionally.
