We had this "player sheriff" idea so many times, I lost count.

Let me just quickly run down the points why it is bad:

  • Abuse. It will happen no matter how qualified the players.

  • Controling the actions of empowered players to prevent abuse would bind as many, or more resources than the current system would, thus providing no additional benefit, as the same ressources could be used to monitor behaviour directly, without the risk for abuse.

  • There is no feasible system to determine who qualifies for such a role, other than direct applications, the evaluation of which would again bind ressources with no additional benefit.

  • An automated system hands out punishments based on rulesets that apply to everyone equally. Empowered players would hand out punishments based on their opinion. The only way to prevent that would again be, you guessed it, monitoring their actions, thus binding ressources which could much better be used in directly monitoring behaviour.

Thanks for your idea, but it has been voiced and discussed to death 1000 times over before.

no... because 90 percent of the league community are trolls, or idiots.
