Does Riot Even Moderate Anymore?

Out of curiosity, honestly.

Every game there are 2+ people flaming and saying some pretty seriously toxic crap, or they end up being sarcastic and feeding while "pretending" to try. (Filling chat with "omg sorry, how do I beat him?") Has RIOT completely taken a backseat to moderation, leaving all the banning up to the instant feedback system? Does typing out a reason even help? I've reported people who openly used racial slurs and homophobic slurs in all chat just to get no notification of disciplinary action. I have tried to report people who intentionally feed, (Its not as hard to prove as you make it out to be.) 0/14/2 is not a "bad game."

There used to be a tribunal where actual people reviewed reports, boy that was nice. For a dev to talk so much about how they hate unsportsmanlike conduct, you sure do very little to prevent unsportsmanlike conduct. And you really don't give us any insight or impact on the matter. Bring back the tribunal, let the COMMUNITY decide what is bannable. NOT some algorithm.

Well there's many threads everyday about people complaining about how they didn't deserve their ban, so i say they do.

gotta wait 10 years for these sloths at dorito HQ to finally catch up with what other games are doing. they have 1 computer at their HQ and it's powered by a hamster so they will probably take at least a few more years for them to realise that removing tribunal for a dog shit y = mx + b algorithm that only bans people for the most extremes of cases was a bad idea. I could probably do a better job moderating this game by handing over my tamagatchi to my pet chimp and have it read over some chat logs. Don't you know dorito spends 20 bucks of its annual revenue on its whole staff? It's on on their FAQ. Half of that 20 bucks goes towards feeding their hamster and the other half is spent at a strip club.
