Would punishing people for reporting hackers discourage people from reporting anything?

I would like to not punish people for it but make it known to not do it and discourage it.

Making it an official and written rule in the MOTD would mean punishing people for breaking that rule just like we do with all the other rules in there.

There are other ways of making it known to not do it and discourage people from doing it rather than making it an official rule imo

I think making it an official "rule" would not be worth it and a waste of time trying to enforce it

True true but how would we properly enforce it becuase if we say don’t do it and they do it again then what would we do?

Say to them after the fact. “Please don’t call out a hacker in open chat, please use admin chat. Hackers typically tend to stop using their hacks when someone calls them out” vast majority of people are trying to help and won’t do it again.

If it was added to the MOTD, you would still get people calling out hackers because nobody reads the MOTD.
