The community getting worse is also partly because of us.

And by us, I mean the good side of the community. Those people who rarely, if ever, flame, they don't troll and they are not toxic in general. But even those people are contributing to the problem sometimes, indirectly. How? When they use the report system.

Sometimes, you are so fed up and tilted by someone that you "report them for feeding". This is a classic case, where someone had a bad game, didn't play the way you liked and had a bad KDA (something like 3/10/4), so they must have been feeding, right? No, maybe it's just a bad game. Reporting them isn't right, and you should not be doing it.

My whole post only refers to this kind of report; inting. Do not report players just because they had a bad game, because then, Riot is forced to take a different approach to their mechanism with which they identify if people are feeding or not. For example, if every player who had a bad KDA was reported, then the few who actually int will not be punished, because the system can't identify them, except if they get repeatedly reported over a lot of games.

Take the time and understand what inting means, so that the system can be bettered to identify and punish the true inters.

I don’t consider people who report others for feeding without being sure the “good side” of the community

If I’m being honest, people who report halphazardly are even worse than inters themselves.

Inters can only ruin individual matches, whereas false reports can ruin a players entire league experience.

If you report in this fashion than in no way are you the “good” side of anything.

I’m not talking about you obviously, I’m just saying in general, people who do this honestly disgust me

Which is why we need report for unskilled player back. This didn't flag your account but gives the other side a way to blow off steam.

Yes the automated system can't catch trolls because of all the "false reporting" going on.

We need to cut out the false reports so that every report has a little more weight to it.

you're the trash that is causing the community to be bad. Please dont ever make a post ever again. if theyre 3-10-4 theyre feeding. They need to be punished. op.gg them. Their scores whether they win or lose is always negative and KDA of 1.0 or lower. These types of players are constantly being destroyed in their games and require good teammates to carry them. But WHY?? its the problem with matchmaking. How can someone who is legitimately in silver 5-0 in lane destorying someone who is also silver but 0-5??? it just means that 1) either the 5-0 belongs to gold and the other guy is just bad and should stay silver or 2) the 5-0 is normal and 0-5 is just bad and belongs in bronze.

But question is how is it possible that there is such a difference in skill level when they are both silver and in the same game? cuz the 0-5 is boosted by good players on his team and then 5-0 gets trash on his team to make him lose his games even when he can dump his opponent in lane. Thats how unfair the system is. Its even worse than Gambling. Playing baccarat at least allows me to choose which one I think will win, but league the moment I take the gamble to go in Q, I get 9 randoms and its 4/9 chance of having the better players on my team which is less than 50%. Worse than gambling indeed

theres so excuse for a bad game. bad game means ur playing bad like missing ults or missing CS. not positioning right to do the fullest dmg possible that you would have been able to on a good day for yourself.

But it does not mean that bad game = 0-10 in 20 mins. I like to use LCS players as reference but idk why bronzies always make an excuse and say well this isnt LCS so it doesnt apply to me. but here it goes:

LCS players are also human. they have bad days too at the lcs games. but u dont see them just walk down mid and die like you see in solo q games. theres a difference between bad game and just garbage. everyone has bad games, fine. but wtf are you doing dying at lvl 2 when the game just started 3 mins in???? how is that a bad game?? the game just started. bot lane literally just got to lane after leashing for jg and youre already dead in mid lane.. there is no excuse for bad games. just the fact that youre trash.

Example, theres a reason why IWD was so toxic to his former team liquid teammates. cuz theyre so shitt. look at how they always end 4th. so shit. but what can he do. rage at them and then get kicked from team. but guess what. Ends up the TL squad all got removed anyways cuz its true they were shit. replaced them with the current squad 2018 and bam 1st place. If your teammates are trash, everyone has the right to flame them. dont cry over being flamed. in the real world when u work for you boss, you cant cry when u do a bad job and your boss yells at you. suck it up. but white babies only know how to cry. sigh. bad parenting results in cry babies growing up into society

give people the chance to block players and never see them again in games and u will solve a lot of the problems.

I would never report someone for inting unless they literally spend the game being walking into the enemy team without trying to get away.
