I chose not to report a blatantly inting player...

They were on the enemy team, saying nothing in chat that was toxic, but they were blatantly inting. Running into vision and standing there dancing, shoving into towers and staying there waiting for us to come and get him while doing nothing to get away or defend himself.

The enemy team begged us to report him. I told them I wouldn't, and I didn't.

Wanna know why?

Because it won't matter. I've reported dozens of inters and feeders this year displaying toxic BEHAVIOR and they are never punished. They go on to ruin more games.
Whenever I ask for that same fucking asshole on my own team to be reported they don't fucking do it. They tell me to "git gud" "ggwp" like it was a fair game.

Well too bad assholes. Enjoy getting that jerk in your next game and the game after! The community doesn't take this shit seriously or hold Riot accountable to enforce their own rules, why should I or anyone give a shit?

"I'm upset that the system isn't performing to my standards so I'm going to actively try to make it worse!"

From Riot's support knowledgebase:

Do not threaten or repeatedly tell a player you will report them. Doing so can encourage players who are already negative to continue their behavior. Whether they know they are being reported or not has no bearing to whether the system will act on them. But most importantly, repeatedly threatening or arguing with a negative player can end up derailing the game for everyone else and then open yourself up to reports and possible disciplinary action as well. Avoid negative thoughts and useless chatting with poor performing teammates! Focus on victory by muting the offending player and then reporting them at the end of the game.

Do not ask other players in the match to report the offending player. It only takes one report for our systems to review a game. Additional reports will not do anything for the offending player; however as mentioned above, it could open yourself up to a report of your own; especially if you are derailing the match by constantly demanding reports of other players.

Look through this board. There's plenty of evidence you're wrong here. And even if you were right, deciding not to report because you feel it won't do anything turns it into a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Number of reports does not matter. All the system looks at is whether the player was reported or not. And calling for a player to be reported can lead to a chat restriction.

"I witnessed a robbery, but it didn't happen to me and I doubt the police will arrest him based off one report from a nobody so I didn't report it".

Don't complain next week when you get robbed then. As the adage says... "if you aren't part of the solution..."

you don't even know what those rules are.

asking for reports is meaningless because 9 reports have the same value as 1 report. when a report is requested, the system checks the game and if the player did nothing wrong, nothing happens. the other 8 do the same thing. they don't add anything

Good thing it doesnt matter one bit whether you reported them or not, because one report does the same as nine reports in the same game.

At least try to report them

I wouldn't say never punished. Riot added a new feature where if someone you reported gets punish for the report you did they tell you when you login.

I also reported a few people before and looking up their OP.GGs they ended up not playing anymore games for days on end around the time I reported them. Including on main accounts that they had a consistent login activity on, so chances are they got banned either a few days or weeks.

Proof ?

Proof ? And asking for reports is bannable because it count as a threat, your report is enough.

You don't need to ask people to report. Report them yourself - extra reports don't do anything.
