For 20 minutes straight, every cooldown of their ping timer. "Yasuo signals enemies are missing" on either your dead body or his or anything really.

Either add a report category for ping abuse, or let players choose between text mute and/or ping mute on a per player basis. Just like text chat can be both helpful to teamwork or abused, so can pings.

There is no reason I shouldn't be able to completely remove communication with this yasuo after he figured out the team all muted him.

Additionally, there could be further ping restrictions in the game. Such as this: every time you hit the max allowable pings, the timer before you can ping again grows quickly until it basically mutes you (current timer -> 1 min -> 5 min -> 15 min)

I have got verbal abused harras, death threats but the only thing that makes me want to afk or actually go afk and give up is when a person spam ping me non stop and there is nothing you can do about it. Having to hear 30 pings and no way to mute it is Riot stupid decision of not letting us mute a certain persons ping.

Honestly wish we could mute pings at some point. -.- I hate when people spam ping cause they make a bad choice and its like LET SPAM YOU TO PROVE MY POINT!

but I also get tired of Emote spamming to.

I know their is a third party app that will just auto spam it but my god.it gets annoying

had a game where I had a Vieger support. all he did was spam his taunt all game got to a point I left bottom lane as ADC cause I was done hearing it.

While I do agree something should be done towards people who abuse this feature there are ways you can prevent it. Ping sound is in the setting and you can change it, also not that it a reportable offense, just make sure you actually state why you are reporting this person.

It needs to change to stop spam, One notification, One sound, one Ping.

8 simultaneous pings, still, one sound, one notification,

Riot, when a person is muted, make it so the pings still pop up, but the chat message for each only appears once, and the sound and visual in-game(So not on the minimap) is invisible

That is more of Riot catering to the 'needs' of spoiled brats. They want you to feel their rage, one way or another. If they let you mute players fully, that would completely shut down raging, spoiled brats from interfering with team communication.

does /mute champion name not mute pings? I'm pretty sure it does. One second though I'll check for sure.

Edit: I was wrong.

Selective ping muting - yes. Further ping restrictions - no.

Side note - I want to be able to reduce the ping size on my minimap, because sometimes when a teammate (not in an abusive way) pings danger on the map, the pings cover the area and I can't see who the enemies are. This is with the minimap on 100% size.

why he wants to make sure that his team knows that enemies are missing.

i see nothing wrong with that.
