Not Being Able to Report Outside of Game is a Mistake!

I don't know about anyone else, but I personally feel that it is a irresponsible move on Riots part to not allow reporting outside of the post game system.

Most trolls and toxic players begin in the Pre-Game lobby. There should be an option to majority vote kick a player due to toxic/troll in chat and requeue or pull the missing person from queue. I know that they want to keep the load/wait times down, but it is a bit ridiculous in ranked that you are forced to either play handicapped with a troll you know is trying to tank the game or lose LP.

Let people kick the bad apple or allow a reporting mechanism pregame or out of game. You have the chat logs.... Why punish players up front for trolls instead of trying to develop a way to protect them?

Example: 2 queues in a row... Pic of first queue chat: https://photos.google.com/photo/AF1QipMCHEYw23tu4r7k4535fU_WDNUQyemfqAN42LzA Pic of second queue chat, same guy trolling: https://photos.google.com/photo/AF1QipM7jpJrWS2c1ngTuy_U-0P2r8X28p9F1EfYHQcb

I want to hear what people think. Do you believe that allowing players to vote to kick a player pre-game lobby for toxic behavior should be a thing or have an out of game reporting system?

Thanks guys.

You can always send in reports through a support ticket. It's a bit more of a hassle than the post-game version but it's still an option.

you could stop being a snitch and put on your big boy pants. as long as there is auto fill this was going to be a problem. Allowing people to be kicked would not solve anything people would want to be kicked if they got auto filled in to support.

League community mostly does the tattling side.

How exactly would this be handled? Like would it be a majority rule? Would it be like how surrender is and basically give duo's the upper hand? I think the main reason why we dont have a report option in Champ Select is because Riot knows people will abuse it especially in Rank. If all you needed to do to requeue was to basically false report someone just because you had a bad matchup, or maybe you think your teammates arent going to win. I mean how would they validate the report. im sure it would take awhile especially if they have to go through loads of report tickets. So what do you do to people who abuse it? Will you be able to catch them in time?

As for reporting outside of the match seems a bit pushing it. This could lead Streamers, or big time people to basically witch hunt and have people false reporting especially if they never played with them.
