Curious to get the status of reporting "GG EZ"

So, I know that with the way the system works, people who file superfluous reports have the weights of their reports de-valued. I've heard mixed things about GG EZ; while I consider it rude and unsportsmanlike (and I report people who say it under the 'unsportsmanlike' tag) I don't know if this is considered frivolous by the system or not.

Does reporting somebody for GG EZ hold weight? Does the report have merit if I do so? Or does it just de-value my reports? I think saying GG EZ makes you a dick, but if it's going to diminish the value of my reports for other people who do WORSE things, then I won't report for it any longer.

Not alone. It is unsportmanlike but there needs to be more than just that

Riot has stated previously that saying "GG EZ" is valid for a report.

"In saying this, looking at the data, "GGEZ" is considered a negative term, and is reportable. Players generally agree that the phrase is rarely used in a positive context, and is a pretty sour way to end a match." - Riot Lyte
