Honor is wank

So, i feel like the reason that rito hasnt added a progression bar to Honor is because it's 100% random, or the system simply doesnt work, therefore they're slapping a band-aid over a fucking cannonball hole.

Prior to being temp chatbanned, i was honor 3 or so, nearly 4 i'd reckon from the fact i got honored almost every game, and everyone honored so we got progress anyways.

I levelled from 2 to 3 within a day or 2 of people starting to get honor3, but then suddenly EVERYONE was getting honor 3, new or old.

Then, as honor 4s and 5s started rolling in i got chat restricted for chewing out the JG for reasons i'd rather not air here, But then for the past several MONTHS i've been at honor 1. It says it's unlocked, meaning i can continue progressing in the system and i still get keys a lot, but i've been at rock bottom for months and i cant help but wonder why.

I get honored in games a decent amount, though often times these days people wont honor anyone and just skip, so i dont get bonus progression for it.

It's been months. I managed to get to honor 3 in like 2 weeks. Unless the climb from 1 > 2 is higher than 2 > 4 then there's no reason it should be this way.

What are y'alls thoughts on this

There's no honor bar to encourage you to remain honorable.

the only thing i dislike about the honor system is i have no way of showing i am honor level 5 if WASN'T honored last game. (which happens you i get paired with jerks. or when we get other VERY amazing players on my team)

i was there was some banner that showed you were honor 5 but wasn't as shiny as pretty if u didn't get an honor the previous game.

At this point you can tell if someones toxic if they've played a lot of games and they're not honor 5. I kinda like that.

You're probably just excessively toxic. Maybe that one instance of you dropping down to level 1 involved something unforgivable by the system, such as telling someone to kill themselves. idk.

Theres not a simple under-the-hood 'xp bar' kind of thing to honour levels, as it apparently ties into some of their fancy machine learning player behaviour systems, so it's not straightforward for them to tell us our progress even if they wanted to.
