If the pool doesn't pay the correct amount to the correct node, we'll know and we'll shame them. We'll get miners to move to honest pools.

...won't work. We couldn't even get the miners of coinmine to switch when they were >51% because they were getting consistency and low variance (compared to the official which was DOS'ed).

The days of 2-3 pools also seem to be over: http://drk.poolhash.org/poolhash.html

The pie chart is revealing.

Just use hard fork and another system of election/payment that doesn't affect network stability. "Honest pools" won't work. Guaranteed.

They can even offer bigger rewards (the non distributed DRK) to make the miners stay.

Right. Shaming them might actually achieve the reverse effect and make the pool bigger.
If it's only hurting others indirectly, aka the MN users, then as a miner, I would go where the largest block reward is.

We may face a free-rider problem by expecting someone to pay voluntarily for a service, he let the others pay and benefits from it for free. That's why taxes exist.
