Anonymity of Rule Violation Reports

[tfmachad]

@Akumabito:

What Baconsoda is questioning here is not the transparency of the process. While the process isn't open to the public (and any discussion about it is far beyond the point of the thread, I trust you to understand that), the accusation in the form of title and subtitle on the report topic, that many times include the name of the alleged perpetrator and the associated infraction, are.

The accusation can be half the punishment. It is not a prerogative of this community, but there are people who will pass judgement to others solely based on the fact that they've seen their names cited as involved in a marginal activity, regardless of the final sentence. I'm quite sure this isn't too fantastic a concept for you to relate with.

Of course I'd like to think that we (this community) is above that, but perhaps we aren't. Perhaps there are people here that will treat people differently in game because they saw their names in a sanction report. Perhaps they will believe, even before the case has been judged, that the person is indeed a rule breaker. That can hurt people.

I'm not afraid to put a sanction report on anyone openly, because there's nothing to be afraid of.

And what's the reason you'd have to fear pointing your finger at someone? It's not your reputation that you are hurting in the process, it's theirs.

Is this a more tangible explanation of what's being said here?
