I wonder, how would report bot proceed with this one - will he punish a single player who reported a team, or a team who reported one player together?
To start off with, remove the image, or edit it to omit the other players' screennames - Naming & Shaming is against the Boards Universal Rules.
Second, the IFS will flag all instances of toxicity - the premades will get flagged, and, for threatening reports, you'll likely get flagged, too. Depending on individual circumstances, some of you may get punished, others may not - if the premade is consistently toxic, they'll get punished, and if this is a rare instance of negativity on your part, the IFS will likely not punish you.
Nice and loud for the people in the back - multiple reports from one game does not add priority to that report. The report priority doesn't intensify if 2, 3, 4 etc. people report. It will be your word vs theirs, and it's pretty easy to identify who was in the wrong in the log.
Sigh the other day I was held hostage by a 4man. I wanted neeko support so I hovered. They said pick a real support and banned her. So I hover annie. “Annie is not a support, we said a real support” I still hover annie anyways. “If you don’t pick a real support we’re all going support” enemy team has first pick. Then my mid and adc lock in bard and janna... my jungle hovers lulu and my top hovers tahm. They all took support so I went jinx for damage. They would not stop flaming in all chat and the lulu would just walk up and ult janna on cd, the bard would constantly ult me so I would die and say something like “man if only you were support” “a support wouldn’t have died there” and after the game I reported them all and never got report feedback. It was normals. I don’t understand why people have to be so toxic...
I never said a word for the entire game... well nothing after telling the enemy team the situation at the very start while my team was flaming.
Hi The Darkened !
I edited out the name from your post, as per the Board rule against Name & Shame. Calling out people in the manner you used creates a witch hunt which is not allowed.
If you have a problem with someone in game, then be sure to use the report function at the end of the game, or if someone continues to harass you out of game, then submit a Support Ticket.
If you have any questions about this moderation action, don't hesitate to reach out to the Boards Moderation Team via:
Honestly if I get a 4 man premade that goes all-4-toxic I mysteriously start only splitpushing and stop showing up to any objectives.
I agree that some may respond well to politely letting them know, It is my belief that a raging individual is like an incident of road rage, to follow your driving analogy. Doing anything aggressive or even assertive usually exacerbates the problem (e.g. another person gets involved).
While both are possible ways to address the situations, it comes down to personal preference. My preference is to let the rager (road, lol, etc) tire him or herself out and let the situation pass. Occasionally I will take to your active measures, but usually in a less aggressive manner, as aggression often breeds more aggression.
tl;dr: both ways work better in different situations.
Thanks for the discussion!
