Riot you need to read this or your community will fall apart

Riot take a few minutes to read my message and by gods you wont regret it.

It has come to my attention that there have been severely game breaking moments since the dawn of League, but there are just some unjust things in the system and core part and base of the players.

I understand that being a developer and monitoring every single thing is not quite easy, but having undetermined mods and mediocre developers is one of your biggest problem.

There have been constant griefing and gameplay butchering from toxic players and lately bots running on farms and it is NOTICEABLE.

I myself and my girlfriend enjoy some competition, but when people play a match just to ruin the whole run seems like its not even our fault at this point if we start screwing up the game. Yes, there are some unbalanced things, yes there are some things that need to be fixed all the time like bugs and scripts, but mainly, I've noticed that the developers don't give a damn about the negativity from those players and lost hours we, the players put in the game because of negative players that love to get in, either not knowing what the hell they're doing or simply ruining with the ENTIRE matches and avoid helping at ALL. I was on my way to gold and not just one game, not just two games on silver, BUT ABOUT ALMOST EVERY MATCH I PLAYED LOWERED ME TO BRONZE TWO. WITH ALL THE ENTHUSIASM I HAD ABOUT CLIMBING, I JUST DON'T SEE WHY I EVEN WANT TO BOTHER AT THIS POINT.

PEOPLE ARE DRIVING US TO DEMOTING OUR RANK THAT WE POUR HOURS AND HOURS ON SO THESE PEOPLE WHO DON'T GIVE A CRAP ABOUT THE GAME WITH BOTS AND NEGATIVE ATTITUDE DESTROY OUR PROGRESS.

YOU AS GAME DEVELOPERS NEED TO HAVE AT LEAST A TEAM THAT FOCUSES ON THOSE WHO ARE TRULY SCRIPTING AND THE HORRID PLAYERS WHO RUN AROUND RUINING MATCHES UP, BECAUSE LETS FACE IT. NONE OF YOU CHECK THE REPORT FEEDS AT ALL AND THOSE WADS KEEP RUNNING LOOSE.

IF RUNESCAPE, A MEDIOCRE LOOKING GAME WITH THE MOST WEIRDEST COMMUNITY EVER CAN KEEP AN EYE AND WORK ON AN ACTUAL PROGRAMS THAT NEUTRALIZE BOTS AND GRIEFERS, AND ACTUAL MODS HOVERING ON NEGATIVITY IN THEIR OWN GAME IN AN INSTANT, SO CAN YOU. UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR GAMER BASE TO GO DOWN AT ONE POINT, YOU BETTER GET YOUR PRIORITIES TOGETHER. Because let's face it. Worrying about every detail about a champion or little details is not gonna make the whole point of the gameplay any better.

With all due respect, a gamer that cares and cares for the sportsmanlike players.

And pretty much every game, really.

I understand that being a developer and monitoring every single thing is not quite easy, but having undetermined mods and mediocre developers is one of your biggest problem.

It's easy for someone to criticize another person simply because they are unhappy with something. Fact of the matter is, you don't entirely know everything riot is doing and you may not even be able to fully comprehend it.

Programming is tough man, running a company is tough, and managing a community while keeping it interested is also tough.

There have been constant griefing and gameplay butchering from toxic players and lately bots running on farms and it is NOTICEABLE.

Toxic players get caught all the time. You should make an effort to learn how to avoid toxicity, encourage positivity, while also knowing how to report/handle toxic game-play experiences. As for bots, if you are a high silver player then the case may be that these are chat restricted or /all muted peoples who simply don't want to interact in the game. Your thinking that they are bots may be a toxic opinion in of itself. Bad game-play just happens sometimes and you should recognize it instead of branding as of something else or using it to instigate toxicity.

I know this goes to my previous statement, but it seems like you yourself are griefing here. It may be that you are a silver player, and your skill level is silver.

People settle into the rank that shows their skill levels. Going on tilt means you have either reached the point of your own skill level, or you are letting your own emotions ruin the game by interfering with the game-play of others. (Honestly, I believe the latter is more true here)

Believe it or not, riot is able to track things like click habits, mouse motion habits, champion pathing habits, and player habits in-general. It's a very in-depth thing. The reality is that they have people working on detecting the problems you just mentioned, even if you personally believe they aren't. So they are able to detect botters, scripters, and the like. Thing is, they like to postpone bans so that the individual doesn't know which is the program that got them caught.

Anyway, It may be easy for you to throw a tantrum that is different from the actual reality. I only responded because I got a bit of a chuckle from your over-the-top way of speaking.

If you want to climb, then you should work on your own behavior and your own responses to toxicity while also working on your actual game-play. Please know that YOU are actively creating toxicity when you are directly encouraging a negative environment. Work on ways to address toxicity in your games and work on yourself to improve.

Focus on your own self so that you can encourage a more positive environment. Also know that giving positivity may not always lead to receiving positivity from other players, but at least it sets you up to having a much, much better chance of having a pleasant game-play experience...

Not to mention that positivity wins games

In order to drop a tier (Silver to Bronze), you have to be a full 5 divisions below your rank. Looking at your OP.GG profile, it estimates you to be at a Bronze 5 MMR, leading me to believe that it's not everyone else that's the problem, but rather your own play. In your games, you've been placed with and against mid-low Bronze players, with a VERY rare Silver here and there, and even then it's one per game, and they're usually S5.

You aren't dropping tiers because of repeated losses, you're dropping tiers because Riot is trying to match your actual rank to your current MMR. In layman's terms, you are being pushed to the tier you actually belong.

As for bots and scripting players, I've seen very very few in my tenure here. You're blowing it out of proportion.

being bad is not a punishable offense.

Deleting my post by all means is fine by me, but deleting it over bigotry, personal reasons or getting offended is beyond reasoning.

First of all, abusing caps is not helping you get your point across. It does however make it extremely annoying to read what you are saying.

Are you sure you are not just throwing the blame elsewhere so you avoid the actual problems? You know... playing badly and all that good stuff. I have been playing league since S2 and I have maybe seen 3-4 scripters over 2000+ games. Same with bots, I have only encountered like 2 of them.

Also if anything Riot is one of the stricter companies when it comes to player behavior. To the point some of their bans would split the community. Identifying a bot takes time, you don't want to randomly ban a player for being a "bot". The reason why Runescape has it easy is because, well it's easy to figure that something is wrong if a player is online farming 24/7.

Finally toxic players, we all hate them. But you can't do much to stop them from being toxic. Mute them once you identify them as toxic and report them afterwards

I suggest looking at your own mistakes instead of looking for excuses

PS I suggest not playing Jhin since he is not working out for you, plus he is weak in this meta [slayer-jinx-catface]

Just sayin,

I was on my way to gold

You were, at peak 34 lp S5. You have a 32% win rate. Your team isn't the problem, you are. If you don't try to improve your own ability you will never climb.
