Is it a reportable offence for someone to constantly spam laugh? And I mean on a loop, for most of the game?

Yes, it is very reportable. They are abusing a feature and it's disruptive to the game, so it should be reported.

It's bm, but I wouldn't report it unless he was doing something else, like just trolling or harassing people. I've had these glorious moments where both teams just stop in the middle of a fight to spam emotes for minutes at a time.

Riot encourages Singed players to spam laugh/taunt in the Singed Champion spotlight. I doubt it's punishable when it comes up there.

That said, I heard that muting a player mutes the laughing/taunting/joking of that player's champion too.

Yes, this is still an offense of spamming. It would probably be hard to actually get someone banned in the tribunal for that, but it is a bannable offense

I agree with some of the above stated. It should have a disable after a certain number of spams. Consider pings for example. You can "use up" your pings if you do them too quickly. If they had a similar effect on laugh/joke/taunt/dance then you could do them whenever, but not to the point of being a troll.

If a player is using things like rekt, GG EZ, outplayed, consistently in-game or after a game, it can be a something someone gets reported for. As stated in our Summoner's Code, all players should, "Show humility in victory and grace in defeat." When player says these types of things, it just isn't showing very good sportsmanship.

While using the occasional emote use is perfectly fine. If a player was excessively spamming emotes throughout the match and was consistently trying to create a negative experience for the other players with them, then it can be something that you can report them for.

That is from a member of riot .I asked and Here is my opinion "You can use it. Don't abuse it."

so instead of banning people for using a feature. if its such a big issue why not add a 10 minute disabled sound on a champion if it spams 5 emotes in 30 seconds.

isnt this better for everyone? instead of people getting random emails saying "you are banned for laughing"

There is a spam option in the reporting screen though

Why should you Have to Mute an obvious attempt to annoy other players ?

It is reportable ? Sure it is. Is it bannable ? That depends on the history of the person doing this stuff and how the others reacted. Seems kind of harsh to me to ban this person, however I can see a situation where it is warranted...

Player is chat restricted and doing this because they Can and think it is okay to do because the function is there. Just because Riot puts in place a laugh doesn't make it okay to abuse it.

My 2 cents anyway.
