A vague "kill yourself"

So last game I didn't have one of my best games as adc, my support played too aggressive and gave them two early kills, where I failed to be able to make up for the lead the enemy had gotten. We ended up losing, the inevitable outcome.

Though in that game, our midlaner started being quite offensive, eventually just roasting the support with "when we're done with this game, you need to reconsider whether it's anything worth for you to be alive."

Like, whoa, that's some rather heavy flame to drop on somebody like that. But isn't that outrightly banable? Since it's saying "go kill yourself", but just in different words?

"kys" type comments are picked up by the system. Something like that wouldn't really be captured by the program, I'm pretty sure. If you report it, it helps some. It's not a perfect system.

Interesting... wait no... the other thing... who cares?

People get angry playing league, mute them, move on.

Looks like a 14 day ban. You should send a ticket to riot support so they can investigate. The report bot probably won't pick up on things like that. I opened a ticket and it took them 5 days to ban an inter that ran it down in my ranked game.

Either a mod or rioter once told me to kys. Received a log in or account change request that didn't come from me and the code was N5KYS. This was right after receiving warnings and a short ban from the boards so I doubt it is a coincidence.

Consider it a badge of honor that my discourse peeved someone from riot off that much.

Good lord, you kids are soft these days.... Press mute and the problem is solved.

It definitely is banable, but the system looks for keywords and if what the person said does not contain those it probably won't get picked up on. If he gets reported often a riot employee will look into his behavior and hit him with the ban hammer though.

There are bunch of kys walkarounds. Actually there is a good short substitute of it, which for some reason still not considered by the system.

While saying "kys" is easily detectable, the system needs to be all Shakespear to understand human metaphors.

Riot will need to create a system that's sentient to understand such a thing.

Although, a report might be worth a shot, but sending a ticket is the best solution since a rioter can see it and investigate it rather than the system.

This one time I was playing with my premade, a Sivir on our team told him to "get a rope". We both reported this however the instant feedback msg didn't pop up :// I'm assuming they didn't even look into it
