Wondering when riot will actually investigate an issue rather than just chat restricting based on a bunch of people crying and reporting.

Feel free to share your chat logs, and we'd be happy to explain what exactly is wrong with them. Number of reports are not considered.

Which issue? They're generally pretty good about keeping at least aware of problems.

Let's do some super conservative calculations first:

27 million daily players (true stat), we'll say each of them play 1 single game a day

27,000,000 games daily @ average of 27 minutes a game (true stat) We'll assume that only 5% of games (1/20) have at least 1 report

1,350,000 games @ average of 27 minutes 36,450,000 minutes of gameplay footage (607,500 hours)

Let's say that have people on staff that for 8 hours a day just watch replay footage; 607,500 / 8 = 75,937 employees(yeah, they dont even have 1/10th of that working at riot) required that for 8 hours a day, watch replay footage. ~$6 million dollars a day cost (and tons of resources) just to watch replay footage. 2.19 billion dollars a year to watch replay footage (LOL...)

Super fucking unrealistic. Now lets play with some real numbers to show you just how absolutely insane non-automation would look like;

27 million daily players, we'll assume the average across all players is actually 2 games a day, since some play 1, some play 3, or even more.

54,000,000 games daily & We'll assume that 16.6% (1 out of 6) games have at least 1 report 8,640,000 games @ 27 minutes a game

233,280,000 minutes of gameplay footage (3,888,000 hours) Employees work 8 hour days just watching reported gameplay footage 486,000 employees would be required @ a cost just shy of ~$40 million dollars a day 365 days * $40,000,000 = $14.2 billion a year just to watch replays.

No, just no.

Hmm. I would change the 27,000,000 games daily to 2,700,000 games since each game has 10 players.

EX: Instead of actually looking into a toxic game they just punish people based on how many people report its so disgustingly lazy

Do you have any proof that punishments are based on the number of reports and not the behavior of the one reported?

That's actually the opposite of how it works - in reality, the number of reports factors into the punishment exactly 0%.

wouldn't say 0%. Still need at least ONE report for any punishment to happen

Chermorg3 votes

The exact number of reports factors in 0%. The existence of a report is necessary but still factors in virtually 0% as it's based on behavior :)
