Someone just reported me for forfeiting.

Really.. I was 10-3 and I surrendered because our Kayle mid DC'd and all 3 of my deaths were to Annie cuz I lagged the fuck out during our skirmishes.

So what does our GP do? Calls me out for surrendering saying that I was trolling the team and that the entire loss (surrender) was my fault.

Whoa. Sorry that the other 2 people in the game surrendered as well. Why didn't he yell/report (at) them? Seriously..

Thats how it works now, every match requires one person to be made into a "scapegoat", to take ALL the blame so that the other 4 players can go "its all X's fault. I played perfect, we lost because of X, Report them plz" (X = Player chosen as the scapegoat)

People have gotten so stuck in thier "Im the best" world that they are happy to report anyone who doesnt play to thier "challenger" (or even in bronze they Believe they are challenger level). No one wants to admit they had any hand in the loss, its easier to just choose someone else to take all the blame.

I have had games like that where everyone is getting facerolled and yet 1-2 players on the team basically hold everyone else hostage. Had a game where a darius trashtalked and degraded the team, then threatened to report any player who surrendered. And When I brought it up on the forum, I was told "Well It (it = calling for a surrender vote or voting yes on surrender) is a reportable offence because it is regarded as Negative attitude. So it is perfectly acceptable to report players who surrender vote because they have a negative attitude"

So now players have a choice, sit (well not like you can, because that is deemed afk if you are not giving a 3 - 72 game your all as if you actually had a chance) and put up with your team trash talking, the enemy team trash talking...Or Call for a surrender vote and risk being reported for THAT, leading to chat bans, restrictions, bans of all kinds.... .....all because you want to admit you are defeated and want to find a new game. I have already stopped dumping my money in rito, because its all they care about. They couldnt care less if the community rots the game from the inside out.

Well it was only the gankplank that reported me, but he didnt even report the D/C Kayle who left at the 10 minute mark of a RANKED match... He kept saying it too to ensure that I knew that he reported me.

isn't that a bannable offense for harassment?

Indeed. I'm hoping you reported him in turn.

Fortunately, reports aren't necessary to deal with DCs. Also fortunately, false reports like this don't really do much of anything - particularly if you tend towards being a positive or neutral player.

Honestly? I wouldn't worry about it.

He kept begging everyone to not surrender, but once I did, he immediately attacked me. Yes, I did report him, but I don't think he'll ever get punished.

It's just stupid

If it's a behavior he engages in with anything resembling regularity, he'll be punished. It sounds fairly mild (compared to, say, hate speech), so most likely it'd be a chat restriction or series of chat restrictions. But it would certainly be something.

Whether it is or it isnt, I have lost all faith in Riot to do -anything- to curb this. The trolls, the greifers, the bullies. As long as people dump money on them, they cant be bothered to fix any of the problems that plague the community. It is the greifers and the trolls who get to decide who plays and who gets banned. They can report anyone for anything and remove people who arent with them from playing the game by abusing the system.
