[Suggestion] Polling for sub-community ethics.

Closer to the time of live launch, or at a point where platform traffic is more dense, I would suggest the creation of a series of stickies for each sub-community wherein summoners may "vote" on certain aspects of what they want in that specific community.

Among things that should be decided on a by-community basis are:

  1. What votes mean in that community
  2. Brevity of posts
  3. What makes a post merited within the community

After a term of votes, the description of the communities should be amended to include the results such that there is clearly defined expectations for each sub-community on the platform.

In theory there should be a natural evolution in each sub-community. If the systems are placed and maintained correctly, the sub-communities should develop their own identities through normal use!

The reason polling is tricky is that it's possible for people not a part of that particular community to vote, and if the community evolves it's very hard to change what the poll set at the beginning. Besides, it could potentially create an aura of exclusivity and elitism in the communities which might not necessarily be a good thing.
