When you eventually decide to settle down and buy a house Naker, don't forget to ask the local court for a list of all offenders in the suburb you'd like to live in to ensure you don't live on the same street as a criminal.

lol I know plenty of families with young children that do this to check whether there are sexual offenders in the region. Quite a common practice actually, especially in the united states. You can actually look it up online.

I'm sure if you were charged with drunken disorderly behavior and it went on your record you wouldn't want your future employer to know :P

Well you are obligated to tell your employer if you have a criminal record. And they can look it up if they really wanted to.

Do you not think that bullying is a problem? Bullying over the internet is getting more and more problematic, you think this would help?

Well teams that are banned will not be bullyed because they won't be here anymore. And I really don't think bullying would be an issue on BB, perhaps it would but I just don't see it happening really.

If you report a crime or theft to a local police station, they basically say "leave it with us". You can't go back in months later asking if they did anything, that's classified.

I can walk in to the courts on any weekday and walk in to any of the courtrooms and listen to the trial and the punishment. So in that sense all details are available to the public.

There are pros to this suggestion, many in fact. But the cons far outweigh the pros in significance, even though there are less of them.

You say there are lots of pros, but the only con that I can see that you have given is bullying, which I really don't think will be an issue here.

It isn't even a lot of work for GMs to simply post the name of the team and the penalty and why the penalty occured.

If you report that to the BBs, they will see it. If you shout about it publicly, witch hunts ensue, and it creates the incorrect illusion that BBs aren't doing their jobs.

I mean, using that player as a case for a pillory is a horribly invalid argument, and maybe you should have spent the time reporting it to the BBs ;)

We tried to stay clear of comparisons with RL because it's quite ridiculous and because cheating in BB is neither a crime nor an offense. We don't have any rights to know or ask about it. So let's talk about ways to prevent it without resorting to inappropriate arguments please.

It actually shows what's wrong with a pillory, overexagerating a relatively small disturbance.

They are articles not a pillory. It's a different issue.

The argument is that a pillory would tone down cheating. My question is : do you think Rudy would stop saying he wants to return to Europe if his name was put on a pillory list for everyone to see ? Do you see how ridiculous is this question ?

Why there are articles written about those fines is very different from what we are talking about.

Manouche fair comment that they are articles about cheating and its a different issue.....

My question is : do you think Rudy would stop saying he wants to return to Europe if his name was put on a pillory list for everyone to see ? Do you see how ridiculous is this question ?
