so i got a chat restriction and i believe i somewhat deserve it, but what about the people that told me to "find a noose and hang myself" and the person that stole my role in game "jg" because he couldn't call mid fast enough and was left with support. i do deserve the punishment i got but i dont think they should get away with that either. so why didn't i get any report feedback did they not get punished for doing this?
EvilDustMan1 votesIt's possible that game didn't punish them, but if their chat is like that, they WILL get punished.
FizzTheTrickster1 votesThe things i said are true which is why i'm confused because in the past when i report someone for doing something wrong i get feedback sometimes instantly this time nothing. Is it possible that they did nothing to them because it was there 2 bans vs my 1 on each of them?

No. People don't usually get banned for one game. Just because they were toxic this time doesn't mean they are regularly toxic or that the game you played in triggered a punishment.
Think of it like up payload TF2. There's a space between punishments where you can slide back and forth before you actually hit the next punishment tier. A valid report pushes you along that track, but just because YOU hit a punishment this time doesn't mean the other person hit a punishment.
You can't expect two people who are toxic to hit a punishment or the SAME punishment at the same time.
There's a mantra I try to push. 'Mute, report, move on.' Mute them, report them, then move on. They are no longer in your life, stop worrying about them.
FizzTheTrickster1 votesthey told me to noose myself.......... alot more then once if thats not punishable then idk what is i used to think riot was fair but you opened my eyes they dont care about us at all

PlsCheckThisBush1 votesYou'll only receive a notification that your report led to someone being punished if you the LAST person to report them before the punishment was weighed. This is definitely something the system could work on improving. Let's say you instantly reported them after the game and queued up again, while someone else took 5 minutes to write down a report on them and attach screenshots to Imgur (or some other hosting site). If they received the punishment after they were reviewed from the second report, you wouldn't receive the notification - the other person would. Usually the IFS (Instant Feedback System) is pretty good at quickly reviewing someone's chat logs and providing the notification, but sometimes a manual review is necessary. Same thing if they queue up again and are punished after someone from the next game reports them - you'll never know it, and the only way you'll likely be able to have a "tell" is by checking their Match History and seeing that they randomly stopped playing for a period of time, as punishments are relatively confidential unless the player chooses to share.
Also, what EvilDustMan said is true. Muting them and reporting them is about your only line of defense in these situations. If you argue with them and become toxic yourself, you're only at risk of being punished yourself. I like to think of the late comedian George Carlin's quote in these situations:
"Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience."
Kei1431 votesyou'll get a feedback msg if it was the game that punished them. you won't get the msg if they got punished next game.
