Does describing the report helps?

Sometimes, I explain about the report on a really negative person who was saying racial slurs, calling people mental issues, saying gg we lost because that player miss 1 skillshot. I was wondering do our report with description does increase the chance to give them warning, chat limits or banning chance. Just wondering if describing it helps.

Since the romoval of the tribunal I honestly don't think it matters. Other players used to read the reports, chat logs, and build orders but now it is fully automated. A computer doesn't care about what one person has to say about another, it just counts reports.

Their system automatically looks for negative patterns of behaviour... but those patterns do occasionally have to be manually taught to the system.

So the big thing where descriptions come in handy is when somebody is reported constantly, but without exhibiting any patterns that can currently be detected. That's when a Rioter can look at the case and see whether this person was being a douche in a very original way, or whether they just had an unlucky streak of receiving false reports. Now let's say one of the reports says "He constantly typed extreme slurs backwards to avoid detecion", now the manual reviewer knows what to look for and that obviously speeds up things a lot. At the same time, if nobody every described it, it could be that the employee misses the actual meaning behind statements like "reggin" and "toggaf" and they get off scot free.

Short version: If you're confident the automated system can handle it, it's not necessary. But it can't hurt, and it definitely helps for manual reviews.

If it is bannable, and there are enough reports on them, they will be banned regardless. The description helps the support team to know what to look for, and maybe for intentional feeding since that is kind of hard to prove I guess. But they should be banned regardless, it helps the Riot Support team but besides that they should find racist stuff regardless.

Yes adding even 1 line of relevant text helps with reports.

the system can't determine every case correctly, when that or perma ban occurs a riot employee supposedly steps in and reviews the case

Simply saying that the person was toxic in pre or post game lobby saves them time, but other than that they read enough to determine the punishment

No, it doesn't work like that. The description is to help identify the problem if there is any confusion. If a guy is spending the entire game typing insults to his team, there is not any mystery about why you are reporting them and putting something in the description does not increase the "chance" of the report (that's really terrible word for what you want here).

Not sure although I have to say when I usually put the exact quote of the person telling the other person to kill themselves I get the ban confirmation extremely quickly.
