Not sure what doxxing is and if it should be a red line. But what we are talking about here is completely different situation. I don’t think that there should be red lines about strategy, manipulation or stupid threats (game related). A racist statement is never game related in diplomacy. So, should there be lines in what concerns what you say, game related, in a diplomacy game?

(Paraphrased) A heads up to bordering countries: If I lose [Country B] wins a solo, and I will cooperate with them. So no attacks; I will delete units to advantage [Country B]. This is obviously poor form at the least, but do people think it crosses the line or is this acceptable?
