Why not create an "Appeal Center" where one could apply to appeal the ban on the site or some board if a person considers it unreasonable. If the main moderation cannot or does not want to do this (I remind you there are only 3 for the entire site), then volunteers can do this. in any case, the "Appeal Center" is quite a useful thing for the site
The only things I see wrong with this is that volunteers can abuse their power and the mods cannot read what would be probably 10,000+ appeals while also moderating the site and banning other people. It's a good idea, but it can be difficult to execute correctly.
I think the volunteers would be more like trusted users and not random people.
yes, it would be nice to assemble a team of experienced proven speedrunners for this
@Comrade_S
What you are proposing isn't just something easily put together by the site. There are always the possible legal implications to look out for when dealing with volunteers performing unpaid work for profit companies (in this case, Elo). Especially in America, this seems like something to look out for.
That said, the Discord server you made that takes claims... It seems like an act of goodwill but it also causes confusion since it pretends it can take claims from banned users and also claims it can clarify what the reason behind their ban is. How do you even accomplish such a thing if the ban reason is never even made public? Just sounds you are making assumptions since you aren't site staff.
That said, why do you have such an icon next to your name? Trying to impersonate staff?
