Change of Dishonoring System - Quality of Life Change

22 Caliber Rifle··1 votes·1,715 views

I already know people are going to downvote this thread because that's the community in a nutshell but hear me out on this. With the implementation of the Honor system in late 2017 and it been properly introduced with Season 8, we all know how hard it is to reach honor 5 before the end of the season. Semi off topic but my account has recently been given a 14-day suspension without any reason atm even though I have submitted a support ticket around 2 days ago. The point I should make is that it took me 8 - 9 months to reach this through intense grinding sessions as suggested by my level XD to find out that saying one toxic thing in one session causes me to be suspended :|

When players are banned, they immediately start from Dishonored which is sometimes bull shit and is also acceptable depending on the player's situation and behavior in game.** I believe that the system should instead drop you one tier instead of making you start all over again such as honor 5 to honor 4**. This would be a quality of life change because people understand how hard it is to reach honor 5 and if they drop one tier, they are more likely to continue playing league of legends then quit permanently due to been put in Dishonored.

This system would keep players in the game and teach players about being toxic in the game leads to honor drops instead of immediately putting them bellow honor 1 and pissing them off more. The punishment could become more severe over time where shown through Riots summoners code where over time you can be permanently banned from the league. Example idea:

Punishments: 14-day suspension - 1 - 2 Honor drops 2nd offense - 3 honor drops 3rd offense - Dishonored 4th offense - Banned

This can be changed based on the type of situation given to the Riot team.

I could see an argument for this on your first chat restrictions for minor offenses. Once you get to the point where you're looking at 14-day bans, however, you either have a history of problematic behavior or have been using zero tolerance phrases like hate speech or encouraging self harm, and I'm TOTALLY fine with that causing a loss of all honor.

I've never been given chat restriction before but I logged on 2 days ago to find that I have been suspended XD and yet to get a proper response from the Riot support team. You would think that customer service was a priority. It kinda sucks that I will have to grind to honor 5 super fast before the end of the season so I don't look like a bad player who is supposedly toxic

Anyway while i'm here. How long does it take for Riot support team to review my ticket?

Given the size of League's player base -- especially during a period of both Worlds and a special game mode, along with special missions and promotional items that can increase the support load -- this is still within the expected response time.

How long ago did you start though? because based on the timeframe it still took you 6 - 7 months achieve honor 5 which is absurd. If you include being dishonered that would be another month.

Don't be dishonorable then ?

My problem with the honor system is when you drop in honors due to a minor punishment and it makes it close to impossible to go back up, i got chat restricted for the first time in my 4 years of playing the game a while ago and got dropped to honor 1 from honor 4 2nd checkpoint... 5 months later and i just barely reached honor 3 with no checkpoints. if at least it showed the progress you could at least look forward to it but it is very slow and extremely punishing for cases like mine that i happened to flame a jungle Alistar that did everything in his power to make my ranked as miserable as possible after i was in a 3 game losing streak and was already frustrated... not trying to justify my acts but just saying it is way too punishing honor-wise.

Irrelevant and not constructive mate, he's stating his point which he is right about.
