So here's the thought process for that and the reasons it ended up in both Freedom's and AG's proposals. Stiff punishments for petitions that get escalated to GMs means that guilds are far more likely to solve our quarrels through guild to guild mediation. We could go petition by petition and most or all of those would have been resolved before it ever reached a GM.

We would love to see Riot get on board with this.

I raided from 2012 to 2018 on this server off and on. Stiffer penalties has never made guilds work together. It always does the opposite. The stiffer the penalties get the more petitions guilds put in as a tactic to reduce competition.

Or do much harsher penalties. Like a 1 week / 2 week full out raid suspension and loot deletion. People will be on their best behavior then.
The penalties obviously aren't harsh enough. There's been a raid guild suspension on average every 1.5 months for the last 5 years. Even with 30+ day suspensions.

You have to identify the rotten apples, permaban them and rinse and repeat when they show back up. They aren't paying customers (nor are any of us) and yet they end up making it a non-paying job for the server GMs to put up with their toxic behaviour. Good riddance.

Talking about American Football? That yellow flag is thrown around like a used condom every other play from what I have seen.

Challenge flag is red. You get 2 and if you win both, a 3rd. Dunno after that.
