The new report system no longer has the "Not Cooperating with Team" option. Instead, it is just: Negative Attitude Verbal Abuse Leaving the game/AFK Assisting Enemy Team/Intentionally Feeding Hate Speech Cheating Offensive/inappropriate summoner name
What do you guys think about this?
Clown Apocalypse1 votesNever was a not cooperating with team option, although there always should have been. Some people refuse to cooperate to the point that it pretty much becomes assisting the enemy. I believe you confuse it with refusing to communicate with team. Which was pretty much a worthless report really. I've played lots of games and never said a word. And won. I'd imagine pinging just a few times would render that report useless anyways. Negative attitude is also a dubious report at best. If the score is 30-4, regardless of the fantasy scenario people can imagine playing out....me saying this game is over is pretty much an astute observation and not me being negative. On the inverse, someone who is already saying GG when the score is 4-6 is annoying, but muteable. Hate speech and verbal abuse are pretty much the same thing....offenseive language. Afking and assisting the enemy are pretty much the same thing as well.

NO. There should NEVER be a "not cooperating with team" option. Most toxic players, i.e. the ones who actually USE the report system, will just roam around the enemy jungle and get killed over and over, then report their team for "not cooperating".
"Cooperating with team" in the mind of the toxic player = getting the most kills. "Not cooperating with team" applies to any player who didnt get lots of kills, even if that person single-handedly pushed all three lanes, solo killed every dragon, and smashed every turret, inhib and nexus on the map.
Most of the players who are interested in the report system are players who play the game badly and want to blame a teammate. They don't understand the core concept of "cooperation" so there should never be an option for it.

You do realize that one person spam reporting their team for not cooperating < the rest of the team reporting you for being the asshole who keeps running off alone and dying? Do you always just make up shit to disagree with someone? Reporting people for not cooperating should be an option. There's a difference between not ganking someone's lane when they ping and afk farming jungle all game. There's a difference between trying to split push because it's a good time, and constantly trying to backdoor at the end of the game forcing your team to defend 4 vs 5 while you pretty much free farm around the map and they huddle at a turret trying not to get aced.
Some people play well and are STILL uncooperative pricks who end up costing the team the game because they think since they have a bunch of kills their strategy can't be questioned. So yeah...you making up imaginary scenarios where one person did everything in game right and 4 other people just decided to report him for not cooperating sounds at best dumb asf. If 4 people on your team feel like you were zero help during the game, you probably were. The chat logs will also surely show people telling you to repeatedly group and pinging you, and you ignoring them. Newsflash....if your team keeps telling you to group late game and you are running around the map dying over and over and making it a point NOT to group, you're being an uncooperative prick and are one of the reasons low elo games get thrown so often. Some people feel like they have to have a full build for the game to end but end up costing their team the game trying to farm for it. Some are salty they aren't carrying and want the game to drag out so they can improve their score.
Most of the players interested in the report system are the people tired of having games ruined by people who rarely get punished. Why should calling you a useless POS get me banned, yet you making a conscious effort to not help the team and actually being a useless POS isn't? The double standards in this game are amazing. That's why the boards are full of people bitching about the community. The main people complaining about toxicity are the ones who do dumb shit on a regular basis and get flamed for it. Your whole team rarely flames you for being extremely helpful. What your team will flame you for is picking Yi then afk farming for 35 minutes thinking you are about to singlehandedly split push and win the game when the clock hits 40:00. Or being that Nasus that's still farming stacks while you lose turrets and inhibs elsewhere on the map.
I can tell by your tone you are one of those players that frequently gets bitched at for for split pushing all game and not helping. You force your team to fight 4 vs 5 most of the game then come play cleanup on the people they managed to almost kill before they died. Then you make it out to seem like it's their fault for not huddling like scared children under a turret waiting on you to return in all your glory and carry them. People like you are so obsessed with being THE person to carry and win the game, that you don't carry shit, you just end up with a bunch of kills in a loss talking about how bad your teammates were. Which is EXACTLY why being a noncooperative dick for 30 minutes should be reportable.
Oh and fyi....just because I mute the team and can't see what they type doesn't mean I'm no longer biting my tongue. BIting my tongue is watching people do dumb shit for 30 minutes and being forced to sit in silence and not ask them wtf their malfunction is.
Maple Crusader1 votesYou mean "Not communicating with team".
Koraji yo1 votesHonestly I always assumed that was just a bait report option so Riot knows this is just a salty report that's based on emotions, not player behavior issues.
Really I'd be quiet disappointed if something as silly as refusal to communicate was a bannable offense. Afterall, just about every game has 0-3 people who never talk or ping.
LGBTCute2 votesGiven the kind of things people actually say in chat, who the heck wants to communicate with their team in Solo Q anyway?
Riot actively encourages people to use the mute button, and they said several times that "refusal to communicate" was generally a placebo report anyway.
