PSA About Punishment Messages

You do not ALWAYS get a message if a player you reported is punished.

Stop using the excuse of "i feel like im the only one punished when me and them both flame eachother and report each other.... But i was punished and received no message saying they were too"

Also, Forums do nothing but get player feedback on your punishment. It will not actually do any help in any way except to get one of two things... Rarely both.

  1. To have it explained why you were punished.... Most common.
  2. To be sent to the support website with the correct thing to say to get the best possible chance of getting help. Unlikely, but there have been a few times that there is a person who posted logs that had the POSSABILITY of getting help.

This is a ploy for sympathy which you will not get.

Thank you.

In fairness, the system COULD be better explained. It's an honest point of confusion for many people, and one of the easiest things Riot could fix to help players feel like their reports have weight. I don't want it to pop up an alert EVERY damn time, but a stat somewhere that shows "punishments contributed to" or something might be helpful.

The PSA is definitely useful though.
