I feel this is an excellent cause, and if I were better at writing, I would attempt some sort of inspirational speech about how I try to be kind and give everyone a chance to redeem themselves, in-game and out. Sadly, I'm only mediocre at best, and am now regretting posting even this.
If you would accept me, I would gladly join you.

Hey, Im new here and all, but I seriously like the idea. The main reason I quit mobas prematurely is that the community is rotten. I would like to be a part of this movement.
For anyone in doubts about this groups effectiveness, I believe that its not a tool to stop trolling, but a tool to help the victims. Many new people either quit or become trolls themselves to level the playing field, but if there would be PGU members in the game, with a simple backup for the victim and an encouragement to keep playing, the new player would see that the community isn't as rotten as it first seems. In short, this group would push the new and normal players to be kind, instead of jerks and a**holes.
In short short: Join the light side

In terms of naming the organization, I was thinking "The Temperance Guild" might be a good fit. It conveys everything I think you're aiming for, be it office, moderation, or community, without having too forceful of a connotation (e.g. "Conduct Enforcers, Troll Patrol," etc.) It also fits the atmosphere of the game itself, sounding a bit archaic without becoming too over-the-top, like "The Gentlemen's League" or something along those lines.
The tag [TG] would look prety nice next to our in-game names, and we'd work through reputation alone. It would be akin to the "cool kids" back in high school; they could never actually force you to act a certain way, but you'd always find yourself subconsciously drawn to their mannerisms in order to emulate and therefore be (somewhat? hopefully?) accepted by them.
Just my two cents.
