Why no Solution for this Problem ?

I really get tired from this thing called trolling. I know to climb I should be able to carry my team by myself and play well and I accepted this fact. but however we are playing 4 vs 5 in this case and I can't do anything. I cannot climb and I am losing critical matches because of these guys.

Why no serious punishment for those people (perma ban)? Why this problem is not fixed since the game started (I feel that rate of trollers increased since I started playing this game) ? Why LOL community becomes so toxic??

Trolling is difficult to automatically detect, and there are plenty of people that see trolling where it doesn't exist (had someone in a game I played today say his Mid laner was intentionally feeding, yet that Mid had a better KDA than him...). The difference between trolling and strategy can be subtle too, as demonstrated by every Singed main on the planet. The difference between "trolling" and "trying" can differ based on experience at the game too. If a Bronze player was matched with Diamonds they'd say he's trolling them because of how ignorant of the map he is and what terrible decisions he makes.

When players do have a history of trolling and are manually reviewed they get 2-week bans or permabans, it's just that Riot errs on the side of not automatically banning innocent players.

The good doctor is right, it's more difficult for the system to detect trolling. Currently, the Instant Feedback System functions like a chat-bot. Reports are submitted, and it scans through the chat logs to verify whether they are legitimate or not. But with trolling, there are no verbal cues that can be detected.

Riot has been working on expanding the system to be able to detect trolling, but they are trying to make sure that it doesn't punish people for having bad games, or for simply being inexperienced, so it will take some time for that to be ready.

In the mean time, when people troll you, be sure that you report them for it. Take the time to fill in the additional comments during the report screen. While it does take more reports for them to be manually reviewed than a person being reported for toxicity would need to be punished by the system, it makes it that much more important that you actually take the time to report them. So many times people get frustrated and think "why bother reporting them, they won't get punished anyway?" and then never report them. Of course the person will never be punished if they are never reported. But if enough people report a player for their actions, they _**will **_end up being reviewed and/or punished for it if they are trolling.
