How the Code is broken...

Tepoy··1 votes·681 views

Rito, after years of gaming, and endlessly reminding us of your "Summoner's Code," have you ever asked yourself, "How well have I done upholding my own constitution?" Today, I compile my argument how you, Rito, and a few members of this community sit on your hands after endless complains and reports. These "ELO Boosting" services have grown so large, they now have websites. They become business from how it was for fun and favors back when it started. And yet, you can't seem to bother yourself to find time to solve this, not just continuing crisis, but ever evolving.

  1. "Support Your Team" (RITO) we are part of your team. We, the community made you grow, made you successful. Yet, we feel betrayed as you've done almost nothing in solving this. (BOOSTERS) how do you support your team when you just spoon feed them? You give them a free win that they didn't earn because you've single handedly beat the enemy.

  2. "Drive Constructive Feedback" (RITO) deleting posts about player reports just shows how careless you are about how the community feels. Yes it might violate your rules, but it seems to have been written to protect real violators. Telling us that we might get banned from posting "propaganda" when in reality, it's just a detailed comment you cannot have a comeback. (BOOSTERS) telling us "gg" does not help in anyway. You've made us hate a game with broken system. There will never be anything good that will come out of any game you play to boost.

  3. "Facilitate Civil Discussion" (RITO) deleting a well versed thread isn't, in any way shape or form, civil. Even if it violated a rule. Let us fix it. That is civil. (BOOSTERS) who defend fellow boosters isn't a discussion at all. You're simply telling me, convincingly you might think you are, that it's ok for you boosters to do this. There are records. Which you've sadly completely disregarded.

  4. "Enjoy Yourself, but not at Anyone Else's Expense" (RITO) how would u feel watching a manny pacquiao going against Bigshaw? This is just another form of bullying. What happened to "pick your own size" (BOOSTERS) do you really enjoy picking on newbies? You make us hate you and this system. You're a bully. Had you been bullied, is it just to bully someone else?

  5. "Build Relationships" (RITO) tell us how to build relationship with cheaters? Or maybe you only build relationship with those who u benefit from? (BOOSTERS) you bully us. Period.

  6. "Show Humility in Victory, and Grace in Defeat" (RITO) how when honor is broken? When rules are disregarded. When honesty is a thing of the past? Old values come in a package. Not in bits and pieces. (BOOSTERS) you disgrace the game. You made the fight one sided. Therefore there was no real victor nor loser for it wasn't a real game. Just another boosting job.

  7. "Be Resolute, not Indignant" (RITO) you AFK on us each time someone reports about boosters. (BOOSTERS) you use a game to make money in expense of others' fun. We need no excuse for our anger.

  8. "Leave No Newbie Behind" (RITO) like I said above. You've abandoned us. You only try to make it better for the elites, you've forgotten about us newbies that are being cheated. Constantly. (BOOSTERS) boosting them don't make better players. You've only crippled them.

  9. "Lead By Example" (RITO) should we just ignore boosters, as you've always done? Is this what you've truly meant? (BOOSTERS) should we just use your service to rank up? Forget learning the game and getting better when we can just pay you all to get something we don't deserve?

Rito, It's a shame that you've disgraced great men after using their words and wisdom for selfish desires. Lead by example. Thank you for showing us how to disgrace great men. Thank you for showing us how to ignore dishonesty. Thank you for showing us how to abandon newbies. Thank you for making us indignant. Thank you for breaking the meaning of honor between victors and losers. Thank you for showing us that dishonesty is a way of building relationships. Thank you for taking away the fun that what I thought it was. Thank you for breaking the meaning of civility and constructive. Thank you for all the support you've not given us.

this could have been a good thread if you hadn't focused so heavily on boosters and took a more broad POV

I see boosting as a bigger problem compared to AFKers or Ragers cuz of frustration of unfair gaming. Lags, that's technical which I think they do a decent job in maintaining smooth gameplay. DC falls under such category. I'm in Silver when I constantly encounters boosters. But you're right, I should have looked from a boarder POV.

They ban boosters, and they IP ban. You seeing boosters doesn't mean nothing is done about them.

If you have an issue with someone you think won't be resolved by contributing to their report record (maybe you weren't in a game with them or missed your chance, or the problem needs more immediate action) then you can submit a Support Ticket and provide as much evidence as you can. An allegation without proof doesn't mean much. They are most definitely not sitting on their hands, however. Do you not see all the progress they are doing with reform and punishment systems?

It's true they do ban but it takes a good amount of time you could easily play 20 or more games before being banned for the first three games they're trying to increase response time thou

I would definitely use that link if they ever put a "report a player" form. Which they don't have if u visit the link you've provided. Also, no, I don't have someone specific. This is about boosters in general. Seeing an account goes 28-6 win-lose doesn't exactly convince me of their "reforms and systems". Thank you for your input.

They don't have a specific option for reporting, but they will direct the ticket to the appropriate team to investigate, probably Player Behavior.

If you don't report it, they probably won't know, and that is how they get away with it. Only you can prevent elo boosting. http://www.themetisgroup.com/smokeybear/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/smokey-the-bear-2.jpg

If your only proof is a win streak and getting wrecked, that's no surprise.

Well not a lot. Maybe I'd see one ever 4-6 game? The obvious ones. Like they'd go 14-2 in a game. Then id look at their history, 5.7KDA this season with 85% win rate. Compared to last season they go 2.3KDA 45%KDA. Some are just good like maybe gold or low plat using smurf accounts to help their friend who are in silver.

wow, such a help :/ i hate people like that. elo shows how person plays. so if someone else plays for you- you are lying to yourself. no wonder why some ranked matches are so difficult to handle :/
