Please bring back the tribunal.

Honestly, it was perfectly fine the way it was. I'm not sure what it went down for, but you guys replaced it with some stupid system that gives players 0 insight as to what they did. Furthermore, your support ticket system is a complete joke, as those people don't even read the comments. They just copy and paste the same stupid message in that has nothing to do with the question. It only seems like common sense to tell people what they were banned for. "You have been chat restricted for X games because you said X, Y, and Z". Seems pretty simple to me. According to you guys, you have people review each case anyway, so it wouldn't waste anymore time.

Well, the primary reason it went down was that it stopped building cases properly. Since they had to take it down to fix that issue, they decided to update it at the same time.

It's my understanding that as of now, the primary delay on getting it back up is hangups regarding the world-wide rollout. Specifically, the web tech used in some regions' sites won't support it, so they're trying to fix that.

Personally, I wouldn't mind if they gave up on rolling it world-wide and focused on getting it up in places where the prep's done, to free up resources, but that's just my opinion.

I think they should do something lol. Not sure why it needed updated. Updated to nothing at that lol.

The intention, as I understand it, was to add new tools (such as were tested with the new match history), as well as enabling the Tribunal to act in reverse. Lyte's been talking a lot recently about how there will be cases in the Tribunal that indicate regularly positive behavior, to allow the community to reward those players.

That alone would require a pretty major overhaul of at least two major subsystems.

It does seem like they're pretty close to done, though, and should have it up fairly soon. At least, based on what I've been seeing lately.

I don't know, where there really that many people unhappy with the system that it needed all these new fancy bells and whistles? I sure didn't have a problem with it lol. I don't think anyone would have wanted it down if they knew it was going to take this long and be temporarily replaced with nothing.

It's not about whether players were happy about it. It's about making it more functional. Among other things, the new tools should enable judges to better determine whether a player was intentionally feeding, griefing, or generally demonstrating toxicity in non-verbal ways.

That's not what I'd call "bells and whistles."
