I just got off a 2 week ban. Admittedly I had been toxic, and I no longer type in chat unless it's "drag 1 min" or something.

I play bot lane, and I am silver 5 (I suck). I played 4 games tonight, and went 1-3 with 2 of the losses having troll supports. 1 was Leona, announced they were trolling and built 4 dorans rings over the course of the game. The other was a lux who just fed everywhere, and said in chat they were trolling.

My problem is that while Riot seems to want to punish people for curse words, these types of people are ruining the game. If someone curses, you can mute them. If someone trolls, you have to spend a half hour with this person, you absolutely cannot let your anger show in the game, AND you lose. This is ridiculous, and there has to be a way to instaban trolls after 1 troll game.

My suggestion is that Riot monitor a small amount of games. This way, there is a chance that said troll will be instabanned directly after the game. They should announce this in post game chat, so that the other players can feel some sense of justice. Another way would be to encourage people to send support tickets about trolls, then review cases. If someone false reports, ban them instead. As far as manpower is concerned, maybe have those who have earned enough honor points monitor games for skins or rp. I don't know how feasible this is, but I think it's an idea worth addressing.

I really enjoy this game, win or lose, when everyone is trying. Unfortunately, this is enough for me to consider quitting altogether. These trolls absolutely ruin the game, I believe it to be far worse than cursing in chat. Please monitor games, you only have to monitor a small amount; the threat of getting instabanned will be enough to deter these trolls from ruining a game for 4 other people.

I have played this game for three years and if there is a troll there is a troll. I have thousands of games under my belt. That does not take any weight? I have been stuck in bronze because of trolls. Riot says I need to play better but I know I'm good so being stuck in bronze is ridiculous. You will never get out of bronze because of them. I am a senior member now. Come on now Riot if a member with this experience that does not report say

so you want riot to try to force people to try their hardest every game? lol!

people are going to play however they want. there is no way to make everyone do their best every game. nor should there be. everyone has the right to play however they choose. it is just a video game.

Trolling is an issue. Anyone who has played this game know they exist. How can Riot crack down on trolls. I've had so many ideas of how to rid the League of Legends communities of trolls. These ideas take a fair amount of work from Riot. Which means it will cost money to implement a system that tracks toxic players. Kind of the same way they track players that have good teamwork, honorable etc. In all honesty from a business owner stand point. Bad players spend just as much money as good players. So why limit my costumers. Its a dog eat dog world. Just pray before every queue that you don't get a troll. You never know Riot may be working on a system that may actually fix this problem. Something as simple as the honor system could possible work.. Good Luck peeps. I feel your pain.

Riot doesnt care about us they never will I just lost my promos because a lee sin troll didnt sup like he was supposed to and fed then when i had 30 farm told everyone to report me and that i was troll. Riot doesnt care about trolls they'd rather ban and punish people whom use bad words. Woe he said the f word lets punish him. BUt when ever I report a troll for feeding nothing happens to them. Riot will never give a shit about trolls and will never do anything to stop it cause all they care about is the money.

I HATE TROLLS. So i just played 2 games. One a guy takes Pantheon ADC in ranked. Claims " i dont give a F**K im trolling anyway. We dodged. Dont want to play with that attitude. Then another game 3 people get in and play very well , bu after 15 mins they say.." gotcha were trolls and throw the game hard on purpose. laughing the whole time. Its smurf accounts. People should only be able to have one account. then they will care. Or will they?
