Active Player Tribunal System to help regulate trolling in games.

My league days are essentially over. Member Berries of Season 2, 3, and 4 12 hour grind sessions will forever be fond and frustrating memories for me. Even though I no longer play the game like I used too, I still love it. I would still like to be involved in helping the game become even better than it already is.

Now, the main reason I stopped playing is due to the amount of trolling and toxicity I encounter in the majority of my games. These games are a time investment. When someone is blatantly wasting my time and there is nothing I can do about it I get incredibly frustrated, sometimes become toxic back, which creates a positive feedback loop of negativity and trolling that permeates throughout the community.

I propose a tribunal player queue judgement system. Let us, the players, decide the consequences of trolling, toxic, or inting players. First you would queue up to be randomly slotted into a chat room. This would create an active player tribunal council where a group of 10-20 active (active means has played a game in the last month) players can queue up to watch a random game where a player was reported for various offenses. Before the game you are shown the reports and then watch the whole game or quick jump to the problems. You then talk about what you saw, vote on the desired punishment, then send the report back to Riot for them to hand down the final verdict. Once finished, you may queue up again and view another game.

This could be beneficial to the community in many ways.

1. Trolling players, especially in ranked, absolutely infuriate me to the point where it ruins my night. I assume you have had similar encounters and if you haven't, you aren't playing the same game. I would love to be the person who keeps those people from infesting my favorite game.

2. Low risk of illogical or unwarranted bans. The tribunal system will be based on the tier you are in. If you are Silver, you will be watching Silver games. If you ban good players instead of the ones that actually need or deserve to be banned then you are only toxifying your own environment.

3. Great way to learn bad or unwanted behavior in game but also as a learning tool for better overall league play. I used to not watch league. After I started I became a much better player. This would not only be a way for the community to be apart of cleaning up its immediate environment but a way to make it more educated, which is always a good thing.

4. Keep old wrinkly balls like me interested in the game.

5. Relieve some pressure off Riots shoulders so it can concentrate on the game. League is the most complex game I have ever played. Keeping that interesting while policing it has to be a huge burden on a company. Let us neighborhood watch that shit for ya.

As an additional incentive there could be a small 20-30 lp reward for each game you reach a verdict in. This would also be a way for non grind-fest players like me to gain in-game runes/champions/skins they don't feel like grinding to get. Also, if you watch/judge a certain number of games (100,200, 500,1000) you get an icon, ward skin, or a league judge robe and mallet. (cheesy but hey, I would rock that kappa)

Let me know what you think!
