I'm not complaining about the skin gifting option in the game but....

I'm concerned about situations like this. Maybe we should make it so that if your reported by anyone on either team you can't be gifted or maybe a skill thresh-hold for gifting. Maybe we should use this discussion to talk about what those skill thresh-holds should be. I was thinking maybe you can't die more than 5 times to qualify. I realize there is a leaver prevention gate but that does not obviously stop people from screwing around anyway to spite others.

It's their money, let them gift who they want.

Because I could be reported for a stupid reason? People get reported all the time for having chat restrictions and therefore not saying anything or for 'unskilled' when they don't do too hot even if they're trying their best.

We've had some really close games where I'll gift an enemy with 8 or more deaths. I laned against a Shen support once as Soraka. He died a lot (because his whole team was feeding) but he was a good sport and he tried his best, made some really cool plays with his ult, and made for an interesting botlane. I'm sure he got reported for going Shen even though he didn't better than most players on his team and I'm pretty sure everyone on his team had more than 5 deaths but I still gifted him a skin for making my game enjoyable.

I understand that, I wonder if tribunals will ever have a replay option? Then we could know for sure if someone was feeding for skins.

Love the series. 9/10 whenever I tune in, what I see is everyone being pretty accepting of the niche picks until the team starts doing poorly then all of a sudden it's scapegoat time. Whine all you want about 'baiting' or whatever, if you play with a legitimate goal of winning and do so with an odd pick that you make sure everyone knows about well in advance so they can dodge if they want to, and then they lose their shit in game on you.... you shouldn't get punished and in fact anyone who let loose with the verbal diarea really should since if it wasn't this game surely they were that close to the edge and would have gone off on someone soon anyways.

I see it like the guy half amusing himself with odd picks and half setting up a sting operation for assholes, or as the title of the youtube series labels them "children".

While this would normally fall under naming and shaming, you've provided evidence to persecute the individual, and I certainly hope that Riot removes them from the game instead of removing your thread...

Which they won't, because they're just as part of the problem as the individuals are.

I provided nothing discoheat did. This was not meant to shame anyone though just an example of bad behavior inadvertently encouraged by this recent feature. Also this is on Youtube now I doubt anyone will even remember or care about the players in the game that misbehaved I never remember them I report and move on.

I dont see a problem with the gifting system, Riot makes money so i doubt they see a problem. They do see a problem with almost everyone in that game, their whole team was toxic as f*ck. Some of the crap that Blitzcrank was saying should get him permabanned...
