Link Honor from the client to Boards?

**What I mean is since both the boards and the game are techiniclly connected. Could there be a way to setup something in which a person could earn honors on the boards or reports that can effect their game honor? **

For example, person is extremely rude or aggressive on the boards, then their honor in the game can go down.

While on the other hand, honors (like plays saying good advice or friendly icon) on the boards can help that honor level.

This would promote maybe more community interaction between boards and the game. It also gives players who may rarely play (like a handful of times a month or so), yet use boards a ton to gain honor (for being decent people) which can reflect on the game too. This also goes the other way, person who gets chat restricted or banned in game could maybe lose some freedoms on the boards (if they are rude that is. Let's say they are super aggressive toward other players in game, keeps them from dragging that drama to the boards). But they can still file a ticket to the support. Stops all these "I've been banned falsely" threads, since it forces them to take it directly to Riot. ** There may be better ways of going about this, but it was just a random idea that I thought would be interesting to try or hear feedback on.**

Except for all the spam downvoters and trolls we see on the boards. This would do nothing more than reward popularity. Your posts on boards wouldn't have to be good or nice. All they need to have is be popular via, I have more friends than you, so I get more rewards or... I'm on the winning side of a heated debate on this board so while both of us have been rude beyond what is reasonable, I don't get punished in game cuz... upvoted or whatever and you do.

Now do you see where this idea you have is kinda flawed? How much some people can abuse it? I see what you want, and it's not a bad thing; it just would be too hard to prevent massive abuse I feel. Plenty of players and boards members would use it properly, but still a large number (not percentage, just numerical) would not.
