What Would the Ideal LFG Platform Look Like?

I don't necessarily think a review system is critical, but if it was decided to include one, SW could use a system similar to what League of Legends does. No negative reviews, but you can give superlatives to other players after a session. So there might be a couple categories like:

For Players:
"Great Roleplayer"
"Superior Strategist"
"Team Leader"

For DMs:
"Great Storyteller"
"Thrilling Combat"
etc

At the end of the session you might give each player a few +1's to hand out that they can give to anyone in any of those categories. Maybe 3 points, plus one that has to go into a DM category. In League of Legends these totals are seen by the developers, but perhaps since these are public facing you would abstract them out to XP and Levels, or points toward ranks like Forum titles. Then people are able to say something nice about the other people in the game, but can't say anything negative. The worst they can do is say nothing, so a "bad egg" would be someone with dozens of games played but still has low ranks in all categories.

I like this idea...limit it to only verified players/GMs for a given game.
