Tell you what,

You go ahead and curse all you want, and I will report you every time you do.

Cursing in general is not against the ToS. Directing a curse at someone is against the ToS (harassment). You could maybe make the argument that someone just dropping F-bombs over and over could be considered harassment or spam, but if I just got back from a raid and had just beat a boss for the first time, and I spouted in trade "Man beating that boss just now was f*%#ing amazing!" that would not be against the ToS.

No, it is against the ToS. It does not have to be directed at anybody.

At no point does the article state that offensive language must be directed at any particular player.
