Problem is, there really is no way to enforce any of these guidelines.
If only Riot could actually pay attention to this forum...

Even if they did, there is no guarantee that they would enforce the rules we came up with.

Moderating a forum like this is/would be a full-time job. There ARE forum moderators that sneak around and enforce ToS violations and the like. I know for a fact that certain members of the community have been looked at or banned for behavior that violates the ToS of the forums.

However, moderating RP based on guidelines set by the community is something outside Riot's direct scope, thus, it's unlikely they would want to expend manpower to moderate something based upon that. This means, effectively, that in order to have some semblance of order, we would first have to create the rules and regulations of the forum, which would be a tremendous undertaking in and of itself and cause a lot of in-fighting, then, we would have to have a way to contact Reds/Forum Moderators to inform them of someone breaking rules we have set in place, as long as they coincide with the forum ToS.

Such things could be trolling, intentionally causing disruptions, flaming, overtly sexual or graphic descriptions of mature acts, etc.

I'm not saying creating a list of guidelines and rules couldn't be done. Hell, I'd thought about doing it myself several times, but the thing stopping most individuals of taking that step is the inability for us to enforce any rules we may decide upon as a community, except, perhaps, to downvote the offending party into oblivion, which really doesn't solve anything.

So... What's wrong with anarchy? Not trying to offend anyone here, just asking.

Okay on a serious note, Sometimes you only need to look inside a mirror to know who is responsible.

Anarchy is a myth. Order always comes from it.

Yep, one way or another.

"Chaos is found in greatest abundance wherever order is being sought. It always defeats order, because it is better organized."

I love this quote.

So you, once again, propose to leave it as is? This is exactly the sort of attitude that we've been discussing in this thread. We are trying to work out a plan, a course of action we should take, and you are not helping.

Actually I just saw people talking about Order versus Chaos and decided to put in one of my favourite quotes. You don't directly have to assume I'm saying 'All your attempts at Order are futile'. If quotes were always taken seriously I would be leaving behind a trail of corpses for how often I've said 'Silence! I KILL you!' in the past.

As for the other thing, if you can work out a good plan, then fine, I will participate. However I don't dislike the current system enough to go and try to think up a solution myself, since it would probably have to be very complicated and very big, and I'm not known for thinking up good big plans. I'll leave that to people more likely not to make a giant mess of it.
