Some do care if they get caught, and some are very attached to their in game identity (see the angst Kunckle goes through when someone takes his name, or Darwoth with is 12 year old name across 50 games).
So yes, outting people would discourage some from doing it in the first place. And its classic, ties in with why originially the EQ devs would not change names and wanted to make sure people could not avoid the reputation they earned for themselves on a server.
The server and the server's guilds should be helping to police the server. But we can't when the identity of rule breakers is protected.
