[Report system] Didn't type a single letter in game and received warning about "Verbal Abuse"

Last game I played, I was in a game with a 4 players' party. At the champion selection, they asked me what did i prefer to play, i typed "adc". Then I was told by the teamate at the first position, he got adc. Then I chose TwistedFate for mid lane. Along the whole game, i didn't typed a single letter. I concentrated on the game play and communicated by pings. "adc" were the only letters i typed in the champion selection. At the end of the game, the oter 4 died, i was the only one left over, i used ult, backdoored and took the enemy nexus. My team won.

At last, at the stats screen, i received warning about "Verbal abuse". LMAO. For me this is a bug, coz how could i get warned about "Verbal abuse" without typing a single letter during the game. Apparently, it was a bad joke by the other 4 guys party together. Well, moods ruined, and kind of angry. I nevered said bad words in game towards other players and never took part in word wars in game, and still got the "verbal abuse" warning. This is not faire at all.

Fix this please.

Did you type anything in the pregame lobby? Postgame? The game before? If you queued up fast you could have a warning show from an earlier game.

Skipped your whole post. a warning is just telling you you have been reported X amount of times and may be flagged to have your logs scanned. If you did nothing wrong then your fine you could have 1k warnings and be fine.

A few things about the warning system.

First, if you receive a warning, all that means is that you've been reported more than usual recently, nothing else. The warning system is completely separate from the actual punishment system, so these warnings don't necessarily mean that you will be punished any time soon.

Now, the system that sends out these warnings does not check to see if any reports are "valid," so it is entirely possible to receive a warning when you have done absolutely nothing wrong.

Lastly, from what I've heard, the warning system is designed to give you warning a few games AFTER the game that actually triggered it, so it's likely that the last game you played wasn't the one that triggered the warning, but rather, one of the ones prior to that.
