Not sure this is one that really needs discussing. If you feel someone is breaking rules you can report them. Admins decide if they are, and respond as necessary. What other purpose would naming/shaming serve?
edit: Besides, my heart doesn't want to get brokicated. |

Not on about breaking rules, but if I feel that someone is an arse why can I not express my feelings?
Let the reader decide if I am right or not.
I am almost as right as Jimmy Fantastic by the way |

It's just easier to make that the default rule rather than dealing with butthurts that arise after playing lizvis.
hmm...
Did I? |

Naming and shaming is probably not good. But I think it is even worse to say "You know who did you know what, and that sucks".
If somebody has a problem, then it is probably better to say upfront, than hinting at it. It is not possible to come up and deny a hint. It is possible to deny a direct accusation as the latter is precise, and detailed.
With that said I understand you can really rule out the latter method, so I don't expect site rule changes. Just saying this rule is not perfect either. |

Naming & shaming is against the rules.
If the person is someone that you just played then post a whining thread immediately and we can work it out from your matches list.
If it is from a match that you were speccing you'll need to be a bit more careful.  |

but why is it not allowed? Because someone you have never met in a country you have never been to doesn't like the way you play a fantasy board game? Boo hoo. Grow a pair.
So why should it be allowed? It may curb some of the excessive things that some coaches do and give more information to new coaches as to what to expect from certain coaches vis a vis tactics/ dialogue/ roleplay etc |

The guy hasn't been seen or heard of for ages now. What are you complaining about? |

Because a lot of people wouldnt be able to turn off the faucet once they turned it on. Also, letting everyone express themselves freely about their opinions of other people doesn't actually help anything, as cathartic as it may be. What it does is give people the green light to shoot their yaps off in anti-social and non constructive ways.
In fact, if you have an issue with someone and want them to know, use PMs and maybe you can get through to them, maybe you can't. Trying to rope in the rest of the community to validate your opinions on how awful an opponent is/was is weak. |

If it's just for your own record, you can create an "arseholes" subgroup in your "friends" list.
I wanted to make some sort of badge system for my Flings' match reports with a smiley representing the rating and a single comment like "Approved by <insert a fantasy fanzine name here>", "Not approved", "Game of the year", etc, but I yet have to draw all the pictures. 
Would that fall into the "shaming" category or not? |

I have a note with coaches who I must remember to depitch and/or foul into oblivion although I've never made good on it because they either went away or I've cared too much about winning for that specific game to make good on it. Also, I have to click like 3 different things to find the note and I'm too lazy at home for that. |
