Trolls have over-run the game

Mute Me Im Mean·Apr 24, 2018·5 votes·2,988 views

I see at minimum one troll per game.. I've been writing peoples names down who I know to be inting.. The kind o people that say they are going to feed then

run strait into enemies to die all game. Filled out detailed reports of this kind of behavior, with screenshots and video proof...

Later on I go and check match history to see if these players are still playing games.. and guess what NONE OF THEM BANNED.

I think I've heard enough of the "IT'S ALOT HARDER TO DETECT FEEDERS" excuse from riot and Riot's Cult of mindless supporters..

If you don't start getting a grasp on the players doing this kind of behavior I'm afraid I'm gonna have to dedicate my time to another game where players are

punished for disrupting the community.

I do believe it's the main source of the toxicity of the game. It's not because it's competitive, but because you have countless hours wasted because of trolls. And your right. It's EVERY SINGLE FUCKING GAME. Well, I've not played lol for like 4 months now but lets be fair here... I'm sure not much has changed.

My advise: Just stop playing LoL, play something else worthy of your time.

It's not an excuse, it's an absolute fact.

Well yes, when your company budget for taking care of actually problematic players is next to zero, and much like any other big company infested by workers who are invited for their social ties rather than competence they tend to find excuses or other ways to compensate for losses like selling more skins, sure it's "absolute fact".

Except Rito Games definitely have the resources to commit to such an idea, so no, not really.

Oh, so that's why people whine on this board about being banned every single day... (and this is just for NA).

Yep, they complain about being banned because in many cases it's not only not justified, but they're being singled out when there are more egregious offenses committed by others in the very same game.

You know, the sort of thing that happens when you rely on what is essentially a player vote and a poorly programmed bot to do the work for you. "People" might be fine with a vote, but I'm sure everyone can appreciate the reminder "people" made Trump President.

On the contrary. In the vast majority of cases, it absolutely is justified. People just don't think that calling their teammates names or yelling at them or arguing all game is considered against the rules, when it is, and they'd have known that if they read the summoner's code.

And being "singled out" is a misnomer - they are being punished exclusively for what they put in the chatbox.

This system is really quite simple. Don't flame and you won't get punished for flaming.

Rito Games may say it is so because they'd rather count on the player base of all people and an automated ban bot to do the work for them because they'd rather not commit actual resources to combat actual toxicity, but that doesn't make it so.

They are punished by vote and Rito Games' gross negligence, refusing to own the most prominent problem with their game and attempting to compensate by selling more skins. This game is dead within five years.

Ban is justified sure, but in some cases players get banned for flaming a troll. Now, they deserved to get punished for flaming, but don't you think they would be chilled and positive if there were no trolls in their games? My first ban was because I was toxic towards 2 guys who trolled in my game. Ban was deserved but, what about those 2 trolls? Do you think they got punished for it? No they didn't, one of them was doing that on a regular basis. I strongly believe if Riot did more to protect players from being trolled, there would be much less verbal toxicity.

When was the last time you saw someone on this board whine about being banned for trolling as opposed to something they said in chat? Seems like Riot is fine with any game-ruining trolling you want to do as long as you keep quiet in chat about it.

I do remember at the start of the season trying to see what will happen if I int. I lost all my 10 provision games on my silver 2 account, where I didn't really int, but essentially I was dying over and over again stupidly. Essentially, I was inting. It happened in 10 CONSECUTIVE GAMES, in an attempt to see where I'd be placed. Two things I got out of this:

I got no penalty at all, because in chat, I kept saying "cmon team, we've got this, we can win".
I was silver 2, I lost all my 10 provisionals with horrible KDAs, and I was placed in silver 2. LOL

So, for one, the punishment system is extremely flawed, I should have been penalized on my other account. And, two, what the fuck is wrong with the ranking system. Silver 2 -> silver 2 after losing all provisionals? If I won like 5 of them I'd probably get to Plat or something rofl.

Provisionals are a joke. When i started a smurf i won 9/10 provisional games, and got placed in bronze 2 :D

That's actually pretty amazing to me, because I remember making a second account and doing my placements over and literally winning 7 out of 10 of the matches and still placing Silver 3. So for you to literally lose all of them and place higher than me just does not compute. lol Unless of course you originally ranked significantly higher than Silver to begin with, then I guess it would probably be a major factor in that.

Ok, actually I was kinda mistaken. I was unranked in season 7, and I was Gold 3 in season 6. Does that MMR / division carry on from an entire season of ranked inactivity? It's weird. But still, assuming I was Gold 3 MMR, losing ALL my games and getting placed in S2 is really weird. I can only assume that if I won like 7 or 8 games, I'd get to like Plat 5 at least.

Hahaha make no mistake, I'd rather have Trump than Clinton. I simply used him as an example because the haters for Trump tend to be quite vocal so I figured I'd use an example the bandwagoners can kinda relate to.

Of course, there are other choices I would have made over both, but hey, I'm only one vote feelsbadman.
