I liked Ellainaraya from what I saw. Which, admittedly, wasn't a ton.

On Battle- we try to police that stuff as much as we can, but we're never going to catch it all. I'd add that targeting non-mages isn't always verboten depending on the context. That said, there are also many situations where it very much is. Without knowing more about what exactly you saw I can't comment one way or the other.
