Make users sign a honor code to enable chat

And I don't mean just clicking "I agree" to the summoner code, as anyone can do that and not feel a thing. Although agreeing to the summoner code is also important, I think we need to add something more to prevent trolling raging and griefing

I'm proposing a system where you can choose to enable or disable chat. You don't have to sign anything if you disable chat, but if you click to enable chat, everyday, you have to type "I, (summoner name), promise to not rage, grief or harass other players." Believe it or not, typing that out makes people watch their behavior. There is actually proof that honor codes actually work in preventing bad behavior. Caltech has honor code take-home tests and they seem to be working just fine, at least, there is no news of getting rid of them, so it seems to work.

Also, when reporting people make a similar thing where you have to type out "I promise this is a legit report and not a false report... etc"

I dont usually talk or grief but why would i want to have to sign a forum EVERY DAY? I don't honestly care the flaming isnt to bad usually and if they keep going i mute them. Get tougher skin and dont take every little word a dude on the internet says to heart....

Well, I don't know about you, but I think 15 seconds everyday is worth it to stop a bunch of ragers in chat. 15 seconds is less than 1/3 of the time it takes to get into a queue

Again just mute them, problem solved. that takes one second for you to get over small things people say. if you find "GG EZ" or "Stop feeding" offensive, just mute people lol.Majority of people don't rage, so no need to "punish" everyone and make them use 15 seconds of there day, everyday, to sign the petition. and 15 seconds a day, every day is 5475 seconds, which is 91.25 minutes, andthat is 1.5 hours a year signing a stupid little form. Id rather not waste that much time a year on it : ) Nor does your solution even guarantee the stop of toxicity. people "sign" the "i will not leave" thing and yet people STILL continue to afk from games after signing it

i don't find gg ez or stop feeding offensive. I could care less about that, as I mention in my previous posts

I find "stfu you (expletive) (expletive) (racist slur)" and prolongued harassment offensive and so would most normal humans
