Using a false category of report is considered false reporting

If someone is AFK, report them for AFK.

If you choose to report them for verbal abuse instead even though they didn't say anything in chat because you think verbal abuse gets them punished faster, it's not right. Just report them for AFK. You can question the system and wonder why the AFK report takes a longer time to get a punishment, but you shouldn't change the category of the report. It's not your call and while you may disagree with Riot (I think AFKs aren't dealt with quickly enough as well), just report them for AFK and post on the forums asking for more action against intentionally AFK players.

According to Riot, you can only be "toxic" if you play toxic Dr. Mundo.

And "trolling" only acceptable with Trundle.

I just don't report for anything except verbal abuse/offensive language.

AFK? Report won't matter.. Intentional feeding? Report won't matter.

AFK after flaming the team? Reported for verbal abuse/offensive language. Intentionally feeding while using toxic language toward the team? Reported for verbal abuse/offensive language.

Reports DO matter, just look at these boards for proof of the many people who come here crying when they get suspended/banned.

Sure, buddy. Sure.

You could also look at all the people that come here complaining about games where people feed ridiculously and nothing happens.

It may not happen the instant you get out of the game, but i'm sure those people do get hit, because if they do it in one game, they will do it in more.
