@Riot, Could you add a Report Spam option on the private messages?

Hi, Keep getting these friend requests and if you accept, they spam instantly (elo boost commercial or whatever it is) something and then they are gone from your friend list. The chat box is still open though, so could you add a Report Spam option in the chat box, so that you guys can somehow get rid of these bots/people doing this?

Just a suggestion.

No need for a report option I'll tell you exactly how I handle these spam messages (and I get quite a few of them).

  1. Go to your profile and in the Summoner Search box type the name that just tried to friend you. Do this before even accepting the friend request.

  2. If the Summoner is a level 1 account with no runes/masteries/etc.. go to your Block List.

  3. Type the Summoner Name into the block list box and block them from ever sending you anymore requests again.

It may not be perfect, but this ensures you will not receive anymore spam messages from these accounts past that first friend request.

What I'm more suggesting is having the Report Spam option so that Riot can get their IP etc, or however it works so they can ban them. Yes, blocking is an option, but doesn't really stop the problem since they will keep doing it with another name etc.

I believe you can ignore them and you will no longer see thier messages
