Yeah good point, I guess I was thinking real world vs. Hollywood.

I do agree with your general point that public shaming is not the best tactic to elicit positive behaviour changes, though. I'm not going to tell the mods how to do their job, but my preferred approach is to publicly highlight good behaviour while privately explaining to problem posters exactly why what they're doing isn't acceptable. If they continue to be a problem after multiple warnings, then their accounts get temporarily suspended or banned.

HOw would you publicly highlight good behavoiur?
The private approach for unacceptable behavoiur is what we currently have, no?
