  1. ⚠️ Why the “Wall of Shame” was removed:
  2. 1. Public Shaming = Harassment Potential
  3. Even if someone broke rules, publicly humiliating them creates a toxic culture, not accountability.
  4.  
  5. Discord’s own Community Guidelines discourage harassment or targeted shaming — this could risk reports and server strikes.
  6.  
  7. 2. False Accusations Happen
  8. Someone could get posted unfairly due to a misunderstanding or mod error — and once it's public, the damage is done.
  9.  
  10. Screenshots can be doctored. Mistakes go viral fast.
  11.  
  12. 3. You Lose Control of the Tone
  13. Other users may pile on, turning it into bullying or personal attacks.
  14.  
  15. Your mod team has to constantly babysit the tone, which is exhausting.
  16.  
  17. 4. It Damages Our Brand
  18. You’ve built a respectful, community-first space.
  19.  
  20. A "Wall of Shame" undermines professionalism — especially if devs ever check out the server.
  21.  
  22. It can turn away future collabs or sponsors who don’t want to be associated with public humiliation tactics.
