[Poll] Lowered League of Legends your tolerance against inappropiate behaviour?

Hio guys,

this is mainly a nobrainer question without further explanation. But still...

This is something I've noticed mainly on myself in coherence with World of Warcraft. Before I started to play LoL I mostly ignored everything regarding bad behaviour in chats or otherwise. But after I actively engaged myself within the Tribunal I've noticed that reporting players can be good for a community and without further perceived actions I started to translate that behaviour in other games.

Thus, my question for you, did you noticed such a behaviour on yourself?

Note: Due to the limit of letters in the polls: No. 3 actually reads: I haven't played other games with report-functions before.

Even after this short duration, the results are fairly interesting.

Sadly the issues stems from bad players. If Riot would just ban them from ranked games, you'll see a real decrease in negative attitudes.

No it didn't lower it, I already had NO tolerance for it and would report the moment I saw it. Fortunately this is LoL there are so many prey to report. Nidalee

i never said ranked had more players. I said it's where the action is at.

Maybe for you. many people disagree.

Ranked play tends to be a lot more competitive than Normal play.

Absolutely, but that's not a reason to create barriers to entry, especially when more than half the population chooses not to play the format.

Which is why casual players shouldn't be allowed to play ranked either. But thats another thing.

Elitist much?

This one is more about the trash players that troll in ranked matches, and Riot does nothing to them.

If you are matched with someone, it's for a reason. Just because someone doesn't perform up to your standard doesn't make them "trash". They could have a bad game, a bad matchup or simply get outplayed. After about 40 matches, they have a really good idea of your MMR, so the notion that you're significantly better than them is simply false.

p.s. - before you argue that you didn't say that you are better than the people you get matched with, that's the logical implication of your statement.

So ban the entire NA server from ranked..... its common knowledge even challenged in NA doesn't take the game that seriously just watch some streams. Also toxicity isn't bad players its toxic players. Everyone has a bad game or a bad few games and we have all had toxic players react badly to a bad team score. That isn't going to get better since that toxicity isn't addressed by "ban bad players from ranked"

No, in my opinion they would even increase it. Don't forget a lot of young players play this game. It's often this group that copys the behavior from older players. The only differents is that older players understand their behavior when their punished. While a younger player will just spam all boards that he's unfairly. Everyone else did it right.

Let me give another example: Let's say the population is 10 players. 4/5 of these older players is hacking. The 5 younger players see this and think if they are allowed todo it. Why can't whe. So in the next game 3 of those 5 young players is also hacking. Suddenly you see that only 2 of these young player play the game fair. Since it are kids and they want to join the group the next game 9 of the population is hacking. That last one, is the only one with the brain but he will punished & even social hurt for doing it.

Now let's look to league. Here this situational already happends. The toxic players already made kids toxic & their almost nothing todo to stop it.

Maybe some events like:

  • Having a day where everyone has chat restrictions.
  • Having a day where reports count dubble but you will get a icons depending what you did that day ["didn't report anyone"] and ["didn't got reported]"]. So if you get reported you won't recieve icon B. If you report someone you will not recieve icon A. However if you report someone the tribinal will increase the worth of the report. This will filter only the most extreem reports. This day should also be checked how many reports every player sends. If he abuse it. The reports will not count.
