Does Riot still let you know when a player you reported has been banned?

I remember once when I reported a player for being really toxic, not long after, he/she was reviewed and I was sent a notification saying that the player has been dealt with blah blah. Since then I've encountered toxic players 50-100 times worse than that person, reported and have never seen that notification again. Are these players getting off scott free? I can think back to about 2-3 days ago when I was in a ranked game when two players had their clan name as IH8BP (I hate Black People) and when I read it I asked them why and then they asked if I was black. I said yes and then they proceeded to calling me a coon, ni**er, monkey, dirty, etc. Ofcourse I reported them both with detailed descriptions but I haven't heard anything about it since then.

Only if your report was from the match that triggered a review from the system and resulted in the punishment. If they get punished in the next game, or are punished from a manual review you won't get the notification.

You only get that notification if the game you reported them for was the final straw that got them restricted. Your reports are helping, you just don't get a pop-up because the players in question are getting punished at least one game after the one in which you encountered them.

You're only notified if your report was the one that got them punished. If you need to be reported X times to be punished, only the person who submits the Xth report will be notified the player was banned.

I can confirm that they still do. I received a message about a month ago stating that a player I had reported had been punished and thanking me for taking my time to report etc. its good to know our reports arent just going nowhere
