Someone ought know who did it. Anonymous tips could work. I don't consider it snitching because the bastard(s) is making it worse for everyone just for some thrill or a dumb dare. Honestly, Fuck them.
Anonymous tips are less than worthless.
The first problem is that anyone who is anonymously tipped on is just going to deny it. And now its the word of a named person vs an anonymous tip. That isn't going to fly.
The next problem is that people will quickly learn to weaponize the anonymous tip process to persecute the people they dislike - regardless of whether the target was even involved in the vandalism.
Policies like these are dumb. They don't discourage the bad behavior (the opposite, actually, perpetrators know that the damage they do will impact far more people, which is the entire point of doing it in the first place, so this policy actually works as an incentive to do more vandalism).
“It was Diabolo96, I saw them do it”
There we go, now I don’t even have to pay the 1% fee.
Ever heard of something called an investigation ?
The thing they're refusing to do by forcing everyone to snitch on themselves? Yeah I've heard of it and when you investigate shit you don't gotta rely on people arbitrarily snitching with 0 evidence just to avoid the bull shit. What's next? Someone gets a DUI on campus and they bill everyone for the damage and take away everyone's licenses?
