Honoring Teammates

Junsui Aoi·2/16/2015, 3:11:47 AM·9 votes·963 views

So I recently had a game (normal, draft), when in champ select I let them know 1) that I was filling and 2) that I was going to be practicing something new. I really wish I had screenshot that because what I got from everyone? Things like:

Its okay, that's what norms are for!

I've mained everything so I can give you pointers

Bots are for learning about champs, norms are for learning to PLAY champs :)

I was simply in love with my team from that point forward. I mean, I've been raged at so many times after telling people that I'm practicing a role (I main support, I really really really need to learn other roles) and to not expect awesomeness. To have a team full of nice people really shows that this community isn't all negative. I think we just focus too much on that.

But before I get side tracked. Here's what my main point it: I think it would be super cool if we could leave a note when we honor someone. Something Riot could see, and at the end of the year they can highlight a few people who go extraordinary notes about how kind/awesome/super they were. Kinda like the note we can leave after reporting someone, only this time for good stuff :)

Peace out ~

Sounds like a neat idea. Or maybe, how we have space provided to write a note when we report someone, when we honor someone give the player about as much space/characters as we can put in our Status message for our friends list, to add a bit of note along with the honor. So when we exit the after battle screen, we see what honors we got, and maybe even which were given from whom, along with possible notes with each honor. The only thing I can think of is somehow trolls imagining a way to exploit this and further harass/abuse people. Such as sending offensive messages in the notes and this being difficult for Riot to track and or follow.

It's kind of like how you mute someone in a game and they realize you have, so they rage at everyone else about you and try to turn them to you. At the end of the game wether you win or lose, you see all players messages in the chat window wether you muted them in game or not. Even if you IMMEDIATELY leave this after game lobby, thus preventing yourself from seeing further abuse (since you can't mute people in lobby's) how often do we have friend invites sent to us from these abusive trolls seeking to IM us and further continue their assault. Like they just literally cannot let it go and one can imagine them slinging things off their desk and a nasty foul cloud of rage smoldering over their heads. That'd be bad. People have a tendency to ruin good things for others (The RaF thing for example)

Honor is going to be a factor in the new Tribunal when it comes out. Lyte mentioned something a couple weeks ago on Reddit about doing something very similar to this.

It would work, I think, basically the same as the Report messages did on the old Tribunal's Reform Cards. I'm hoping they do so, as it'd be a pretty awesome touch.

That would be cool, like the opposite of the report system e.g. dropdown menu, why do you want to honour this person :D
