Player Behavior - Naming & Shaming Sticky

Would it be possible to get a stickied reminder near the top of PB with a reminder of the no naming & shaming rule? Sooooo many (removed) posts over the last few days. Just think it would help clean things up a bit.

We've tried stickied threads of rules before, and, sadly, the people who most need to read them are the people least inclined to read them. It ends up being a waste of real estate.

Sadly, I'm not sure if a pinned thread reminding players of the Naming & Shaming rule would really help. We've already got two pinned threads detailing rules and general guidelines for Player Behavior, as well as the Boards Universal Rules in boldface and with a scroll icon on the left, just a little ways under the "Create a Discussion" button, so if people aren't bothering to read all of that, I'm doubtful that a third reminder that players aren't allowed to name & shame would really do anything.

If they're not willing to bother to read the rules in the first place, making more threads to explain the rules probably wouldn't get very far.

Does the no naming and shaming rule apply to people that literally streamed their own misbehavior for all of Twitch (the website, not the champion) to see?

Because that would be kind of odd, IMO.

The only purpose of sticky threads is for veterans to point them out after the fact and say "look, you broke the rules." No one reads. You think I'm kidding, but I'm not.
