Perhaps I was too broad in saying 'entirely public and transparent'. I did not mean to suggest that *reporters* should be made public.
That being said, I don't agree that a moderator post pointing out violations is a form of shaming (if that is what you meant). Additionally, it communicates the point to everyone at once, rather than addressing individuals on a case by case basis. | We should know what is a violation by reading the code of conduct. *Should*? Ok. What about when we don't? It sounds like you are working from an assumption that the CoC is infallible and completely unambiguous. I agree that is something to strive for. We must be allowed to have public discourse regarding it's interpretation. *Especially* when dealing with non-native English speakers.
