Default embarassment vs humilation

Embarassment results when a mod pulls your pic and you realize you messed up. Humiliation would result if the mods were then to include a PUBLIC response to the effect that they're tired of pulling your pics and think you've always been a rather stupid, moronic, worthless poster (regardless of whether or not it was actually true).

In otherwords, humiliation is a lot more serious. For that reason and the fact that it often results in deep seated anger against the perpetrator (the humiliator), more caution is advised when posting (as can be seen from the responses to this post).
