If i'm being flagged for "offensive language" twice in the same month

After not being flagged for anything since i started playing years ago something is wrong with the new ban system. There is a difference between using the word F@#K every once and awhile or playfully teasing the other players verses verbally abusing others to the point where Riot needs to step in.

It isn't a coincidence that i suddenly became toxic right as the new ban system came out. I mean i see people argue about getting someone banned or asking everyone to report so and so EVERY SINGLE GAME I PLAY. Riot what you have done is the equivalent to GIVING A GUN TO A TODDLER. The majority of people that do the reporting are childish vindictive people who are more interested in arguing and being right than about working together or trying to win games. The system is being abused more often than not or it is being used for something that is at the very most mildly unsportsmanlike.

Here is an example of how ridiculous the ban system has gotten. It is perfectly reasonable to get banned for saying "ggez" in a game. It is annoying sure and i would never say it but it is in no way over the line. I understand that you just lost a game and someone just gave you a jab in the side with a little banter in the end game lobby. Hell maybe they even said the unforgivable words "GGEZ"!!!!! Your pride is hurt and you want to get back at them so you report them in the hopes of ruining their day with a ban. Congratulations you saved the day internet hero.

I have been harassed and called awful things while playing this game. I have been harassed in ways that could warrent legal action. I have had death threats and i have been PM spammed with dozens of lines of messages about what a worthless piece of shit I am. I realize that the ban system is needed and that it helps some people but i refuse to believe that being a hypersensitive community with no tolerance is the way to go

You always get a message for when somebody reports you. Stop the salt please.
