Community Voting on Bans/Suspensions

I personally think that Riot needs to implement a Community Report Feedback System for reports of "toxicity" in game or "intentionally feeding" etc. A website I grew up using for competitive gaming uses a similar system called the CMRS ( Community Match Resolution System). Offer an incentive for people to review cases (In game reports) to decide whether or not a suspension or ban is justified/necessary. I had an account get suspended for asking people to report a trolling player in promos to Platinum and got suspended for it. Clearly in the chat and in the game replay you can see the player intentionally walking into enemy turrets throwing the game because our jungler didnt gank his lane. Then proceeded to flame and harass our whole team. According to the "Summoners Code" you cant ask to have other players report someone that threw a game, intentionally fed or trolled which I think is absolute bull. But due to my ticket response to an employee I was told to take my opinion to the boards. I think they need a report review feature thats reviewed by players themselves because we as players see more of the BS so to speak that happens in all tiers. Offer an incentive to players who review and decide on reports like "100 reports reviewed=mystery skin box" or something of that nature. Then require the reviewer to look over games chat and portions of game clip.

League of Legends already had this 9 years ago & for several years. It was the Tribunal which would allow anyone to review cases vote on what action should be taken. A majority of the time the Tribunal was flawed banning hundreds/thousands of accounts just because they felt like it. The League of Legends community as a whole was not mature enough for such a system therefor it was removed. The community is in a worse shape now than it was back then so bringing such a feature would be terrible in today's current state with peoples behavior. Personally I'm not saying the current system is flawless because it for sure has tons of them I'm just saying going back to that system would be worse. Eventually Riot gaming may find a better solution but for now the bot/riot team are all we have.

So you want the Tribunal? Which takes a long ass time to issue any sort of punishment and would probably be divides on gameplay issues.

I'm would be fine with a Tribunal for game play if it had an inkling of a chance to be efficient and accurate. Sadly, I don't believe it would be either. Lack efficiency because you would need multiple players to review the game. Lack of accuracy because determining intent isn't easy and sometimes the small things are overlooked.

Bad idea, community bias is a thing and can end up banning innocent players. It's basically the tribunal but with League's current state of toxicity.
