Riot is encouraging nonsense reporting, it needs to stop.

Riot you are aimlessly banning and restricting people in a very automated fashion. I've had 3 games in a row now where I've muted everyone from the start, not said a single word, and at least 1 person is raging in the lobby to report me. Are you insane? Riot, you CREATED this environment, because they know your system is automated. It needs to stop, now. If I see so much as a pop-up warning because of this nonsense, I will dispute all charges, and I encourage everyone else to do the same. I am not going to risk my money on a game where a batch of ragers can report you because you play Urgot, or for whatever ridiculous reason, and actually get away with it. Fair warning Riot, your business depends on money, do not screw with your customers, stop encouraging this report-happy environment.

It sounds like people are mad at you because you refuse to communicate with them. Did you even tell them you muted them all? If they are sitting there telling you things (like "I'm leaving mid can you cover me? Wait in this bush for them to pass.") and you don't respond or act contrary to what they say, you will definitely get "Refusing to Communicate" reports.

Maybe you should reserve your Mute function for trolls, and tell your team when you mute them?

This has happened to me before -- where someone got so aggravated that they reported me for verbal abuse when I never said anything abusive. The pop up window is automated, but I don't think it means much. Someone still has to look at the chat log and determine whether or not you crossed a line.

Getting that warning doesn't mean you'll face any punishment. Also, if you don't break the rules, whether it's automated or not, you won't be punished. Almost everyone who claimed to have never done any wrong after being punished had been shown to be wrong whether through their posts or when Lyte would post their logs.

I get reported all the time, but still no punishment.
