Fix the Tribunal Already...

As it says here in the Summoner's Code,

Enjoy Yourself, but not at Anyone Else's Expense "Short is the joy that guilty pleasure brings." -Euripides Making games is our business, so it should come as no surprise that we want you to have a lot of fun. We want you to get excited, to have tension-filled moments, and to celebrate your success. This doesn't mean that we're okay with you ruining anybody else's day. Remember, taking a jab at your friend in the middle of the game is a lot different than making a glib remark at a complete stranger. Someone who is unfamiliar with what you consider playful may take your comment as an attack and react unfavorably. If two players on a team start fighting, good communication and teamwork become nearly impossible. Once communication breaks down, the likelihood of victory is drastically diminished. It isn't uncommon for simple, good natured teasing to spiral out of control into a loss, so do yourself a favor and don't run the risk of sabotaging your own success.

I can get banned because some decided machine decided i was too toxic (even though i already had punishments) but a troll can blatantly flip off the Summoner's Code and get away with it? This is unacceptable.

CAN YOU GIVE ME MORE DETAILS? Unfortunately, due to our Privacy Policy, we will not be able to disclose further information regarding Tribunal bans and Leaver Buster suspensions other than what is included in the emails sent to you. If you have not received any emails regarding why you were suspended, and you believe you were suspended for disciplinary reasons, please submit a ticket here and a specialist will address your specific situation.

At least with the Tribunal we got actual PEOPLE to judge us and not just a program (LeaverBuster anyone?). Oh, and that email? Same exact thing, word for word as the last one I got. Giving me zero explanation on why I was banned (outside of "You were banned cause you weren't playing nice with the other kids."). I also hate that when people give you hell you just have to deal with it. As someone who gets very defensive, I feel i should be able to defend myself against someone who is being toxic, but than i just end up with the punishments instead. When the Tribunal was up, at least I got justice because people decided my punishments, not an automated system.

Thanks for reading, i'm already prepared for the downvotes.

I too feel that the tribunal should be fixed, once i was playing a game and the enemy lux was spamming "Report LB AFK" and i responded with "she is not AFK she is mid right now" that was the only thing i said in chat and i got a warning that i was verbally abusing players from the tribunal

Honestly, it's best to only talk sparsely in games or to just.. be nice. Letting a PvP community police itself isn't a good idea, at all. All it takes is a duo queue to give you a warning.

Especially once you start doing ranked, it feels like less and less League of Legends and more and more like Report Simulator 2015

i was told that the tribal was going to be transformed in to a reward system for people that do good and are nice to others
