got my post removed for naming and shaming
advisor said it was fine and doesn't count
just you know kinda saying that maybe the mods and lower downs should have 1 mind? I don't care that the post was removed due to the content not being important but like thats kinda interesting
He just wrote that the name and shame does not apply, because the concern is encapsulated within the name itself. It's an exception, not the rule. Context matters and unfortunately, you aren't giving the full context here. I cannot say whether it's wrong for the 2nd case to be the exception - maybe it is, maybe it's not.
From what the screenshot suggests it seems you named a person in the first post because they did X. But in the 2nd post the person was named because they had a certain summoner name.
It's the difference between the post saying that a summoner Ryder125 (name made out on the spot) was intentionally feeding and a post about a summoner named: "BlackPeopleShouldDie" and how it's offensive.
Of course, again. Can't say whether that was the case, just trying to make sense of the screens.
EDIT: I messed up and initally thought that the post removed and the post that the advisor commented on were two different posts. Now that I reread it: it's just a 50/50 case, where the rule that you shouldn't name people for doing something bad, clashes against the fact that it's the name itself that's the problem. Different mods are just going to look at this case differently.
Sounds like that advisor made a mistake. We should like... make a big deal out of it shouldnt we?
Atleast 1 of 2 things should happen, the thread is taken down and the staff members address it accordingly -> the individual gets a free name change with a warning saying not to do another offensive name.
They probably skipped to 2 because changing your ign means nobody really belongs to the name that is being shamed.
Also naming and shaming, well having someone`s username as being the shameful thing, then there is no reason to uphold that policy because everyone who they come across will look at their name and witch hunt them passively.
Naming and shaming is to protect the individual from being witch hunted via their username, having your username as the problem doesn't prevent that.
I got a post removed for "name and shame" which was literally "I fed really hard in a game and didn't get banned. I was counterjungled by a challenger player and here is his youtube with account name visible and his duo's OPGG which my match is on."
I think Rito is just extremely sensitive to name and shame. For example you weren't allowed to make threads or posts about the 400 win 0 loss Master Yi, 0 win 300 loss Tahm Kench troll and you actually STILL aren't allowed to link that opgg even though Riot Korea renamed his account to try and kill its searchability.
To some extent name and shame is a liability to Riot if its an obvious troll like the 100% winrate Master Yi smurf that legitimately has ruined hundreds of games on one account, it gets the behavior team flamed for not doing their jobs.
