Who is making decisions at riot?

I am genuinely curious about who is making the player behavior based decisions at riot because I highly doubt they have any qualifications whatsoever in the area. I am getting game after game of people saying they are going to troll at the start of the game and then losing because of it. I can only do so much every game I play. I can’t always play well and I do have bad game but holy shit it hurts physically and emotionally when I try my ass off and play extremely well only to be given a defeat because someone wanted to troll my game. My wall looks like Swiss cheese because I keep punished holes in it every time someone trolls in one of my games because I cannot say anything in game about them at all or I get punished by riot. Something needs to change because this is dumb as fuck.

Can always change game. You play game for fun. If the game is no longer fun, it's time to play something else.

You...again. The only thing in common in all of your games is you. Either you're cursed, or you're doing something to attract negativity.

There is no way to easily detect and punish trolls, due to them being stealthy. It would require an experienced player to review every reported game, watching replays and looking at data in detail.

In short, it would be prohibitively expensive, and the trolls would just get even stealthier until it is impossible to determine if they are having a bad game, just a bad player, or farming krugs during a teamfight on purpose.

i suggest seeking professional help. punching your wall over a game is not healthy

They can permaban you for any reason they want and there's nothing you can do about it.

That's their qualification.

Harvard psychologist grad designed the system I think. Needs to be designed by actual players who know what it’s like to get frustrated when playing with people who are wasting your time.
