Ruling. TM incident.

I know the main focus of Riot Games shouldn't be ruling on eSport teams but I really wish Riot Games are doing the right thing to help the game grow.

With the Tainted Minds incident been popular on Reddit lately. As a casual player and eSport audience. I'm disappointed by the ruling on TM. Will there be a follow up investigation or are Riot Games done with this case?

I'm amused enough to write a post about this. I really wonder if there was an proper investigation of the matter before the ruling?

If unrelated people like me sign a petition for a transparent/throughly investigation. Riot Games bother to respond? Riot Games has been a likeable company so far and I wish all the best for the company. Riot HQ's response on this incident so far has been an disappointment however.

Sorry for gramma errors. ESL student here.

The big problem with this whole incident isn't that rito punished the correct side hard enough, but moreso the fact that they randomly took it upon themselves to be judge/jury/executioner in a case literally involving themselves (with rito-oceania being a key player in this). The overall settlement is a giant cause for concern going forward, as the fact they chose not to get a neutral mediator involved means that unless they somehow have a change of heart, they can theoretically stack the deck against any/all cases concerning them.

seems more to me from what I have read that TM was a poor choice for a owner/sponsor of a team.

also since they no longer have the players or the coaches that were part of their "problem" it seems they tried to clean house to shut up the issue.
