Unable to receive loot

The God of Alpha··1 votes·536 views

Hey guys, I've seen several forums regarding this but have yet to get a clear answer.

I main jungle. Long story short a duo joined my game and both rolled smite to troll me. Stole both my buffs while I was Shaco and destroyed my early game entirely. Naturally, I was mad. I didn't cuss, wasn't really toxic, just explained I was angry and that they ruined my early game.

How I even got a 10 game chat restriction is beyond me.

So my two questions are, why does Riot punish the (dare I say) victims of deliberate butt buddy trolling? Of course I'm Angry, no one ques up to lose. That's common sense. I didn't cuss, didn't do anything like that. I wasn't angry or even remotely toxic prior to that, it was their douche bag behavior that was intentional and only to troll me.

Why do you guys reward trolls? So not only was that game ruined, but for me expressing that they ruined the game for me, cost me LP, and just made me even angrier to see I was chat banned.

So now EVEN better news. Now that my chat ban is lifted, I can't receive loot? I'm ineligible to receive loot due to "past bahavior"?

Are you guys kidding me?

So my question is, when will Riot bless me with the ability to earn hextech items again? My chat ban has been up for over a month now.

What they did may be wrong, but responding with negative behavior just adds to the problem. They will be judged for their own behavior whether you decided to tell them off or mute them, but if you decide to mute and ignore them you won't be just another problem to the other teammates.

Where are they being rewarded? Report them and contribute to getting them banned.

It depends on you playing games and showing you've stopped being negative. Higher tier punishments result in longer periods of ineligibility. The requirements are intentionally vague, but keep playing matches and don't retaliate with negative behavior to these players and you'll work it off soon enough. You can read a little more about there here.

Problem is Riot doesn't do anything about trolls who ruin games for people. He has all the right in the world to be mad. They not only wasted his time, but they also ruined his game and they ruined it for 2 other people in that game and every one of them lost LP. Riot doesn't ban people for trolling. And I've always said I'd rather have someone who's toxic in my game but actually helpful than someone who just totally trolls. I think the ban system in general isn't very good. I use to know someone who was the kind of person who'd tell someone to kill themselves every game. He's never been banned once.

That's how I feel about it. I didn't even respond that negatively which is what made me livid when I got a chat ban. Anyone who knows Shaco and saw the game replay would understand why I was so mad, it's always been an ongoing issue that you can troll as long as you aren't speaking.

Appreciate the response. I just wish it wasn't so vague. I'm not a toxic player and I just hate not getting loot for great games I play.

Silent trolls dont get banned, sadly.

Maybe riot will notice how big this issue is becoming, and have real people look at reports again.

only if they made it like the CS:GO overwatch system where real trusted and friendly + active players look over reports and decide who is to be punished and why. the reports would be reviewed by atleast 5 people before a result/punishment is finally given. But sadly, the majority win no matter what Amumu

14 day ban because playing Nunu Support with Smite is "stealing other people's roles"...?
