Alright I've finally caught up to everything. Here's my two cents, @SGR.
If we were to compare this system to the real world, MD staffs would be the CEO and the scanlation groups would be the company's workers - group leaders are their managers - and readers would obviously be customers. Since there are Karens in the wild who'd "like to see the manager" for a petty dollar, I'd say that my comparison is pretty fair.
I like the part where only the GLs can punish readers, that is fair. A worker have no authority to tell a customer to leave the shop no matter how rude, that right is reserved to the manager and only them.
However, @Teasday is correct - a CEO shouldn't be aware of every single breath that their managers take and, aike in the real world, there are managers who are corrupt and abuse their power. They may shove off a customer because... idk they cut the line or something, an offense but surely not enough to warrant a ban from the shop. Luckily, in the real world, customers can complain to the customer service and workers can report their bad managers to the general manager. Therefore, I would like to propose a MangaDex equivalent of a combination of those two - the "Complain Complier".
If this system were to be implemented, the CC is responsible to watch over all things related to GL authority. Reports of power abuse will be reviewed by CC. They will be positioned directly under "MD staffs" such that a delicate balance between a power structure and autotharian rule will be reached over time as things adapt. As a CC, they are able to independently decide wether a GL really have indeed abused their power or a salty reader gave a false report out of spite; they are also given the right to communicate and directly intervene into the drama to solve the issue by themself before further actions are taken. What are the further actions? As a CC who is below MD staffs, they have no real power: a CC's job is to make the MD staffs' job much easier when it comes to GL authority and that is all. They will report everything that had happen, from the false reports to the direct interventions, the staffs will take it from there. They can suggest certain actions to the staffs as well if they really think it's necessary.
That said I do believe that this Idea has potential, although it still requires refining and polishing.
But what does this have to do with the recent drama and the rule loophole?
