No matter how you call it, it lists mostly (if not entirely) spammers, so if it was actually humiliating to them, I'd say "good"!

Problem is, a lot of them might be bots, and those who aren't don't care and they probably won't ever see it - they came, they spammed, they left. So unless a regular forum user lands on it, it doesn't really act as a deterrent.

More like a reminder that somebody is actually keeping things in order, because that often stays behind the scenes and people rarely appreciate what they don't see - that's why I haven't voiced any displeasure anyway.
