Admitting offenses

Kaligary··4 votes·367 views

I believe if a player admits to an offense like feeding, trolling, greifing, or giving up, it should automatically warrant a ban.

For example; "Sure I'm feeding, but Karma doesn't deserve to win this game ;)"

That alone should be enough to automatically flag the account for suspension. That's not having a bad day. That is ruining 4 peoples chance of moving up, and you admit to it. IF the proof is in the coms, it's time to bring out the ban hammer.

I would agree if sarcasm wasn't a thing.

Shouldn't say it either way. Sarcasm or not, it will still get reported.

am I hearing "no free speech allowed" with "free speech" replaced with Sarcasm...

I hope not...

Wouldn't you technically be able to be toxic. Cuz you know... free speech? Don't be daft, kid.

Questions are hard to have toxicity AND work as real questions that have a goal.

If you'd like to be technical, then slander (which is basically a "he-said, she said OR he-did, she-did" situation) which is in fact AGAINST the T&S of your league account, and the comment of "Don't be daft, kid" with the specific word "kid" could indeed be taken as toxic and reported.

There'd be no point to a report of that scale, true.

Don't get technical if you aren't gonna at least research the technicalities.

It doesn't look the best for your reputation, or to people who aren't of the same thought process.

Not to mention that there's nearly no point to having an automated system which can't detect sarcasm... be able to ban someone instantly if they use key words like "feeding, deserve, win, game" within a set of 5 sentences.

That'd be the way to do it, unless you want riot to slow down production of EVERYTHING to a crawl... just to check for people using those words.

I can imagine the automated banned people showing thier chat logs as: XXBOBtoplaner: "Sorry guys that I was feeding, I don't deserve to win this game with the awesome people like you"

SupportiveHIGHFIVE: " your good bro, you just had a bad game. You deserve to win as much as us bro"

AliveShooterBro: " no worries, you kinda sucked but you brought it back a lot. Good job on that"

By the automated system you would just about need installed,

XXBOBtoplaner and SupportiveHIGHFIVE would be banned.

They weren't inting, trolling, or being sarcastic...

You have to think of practicality in how something is implemented

Riot's current system can't catch everything on it's own

That's why there is a report button at the end of a game and chat logs for in-game

It is so that YOU, the player, the 3rd most important part of what's making the game big...

Can help make league better with every second you spend in it.

(first two things of what is making the game big is the game itself and the company support, everything I say is liable for argument as it's almost entirely my opinion plus speculation from my experience and research as a future game dev).

Stupid idea. Until someone actually do it, no reason to ban anyone. Now whether you believe that person is joking or serious and dodge is up to your own personal risk aversion. I'm glad rito disagree with you.

Nope. If you admit to doing something in coms, and continue to do it, then you deserve to be banned.

But you are talking about using what people said as proof and auto-banned. Not everyone who threaten to int or afk actually go through with it (see the guy who suggested sarcasm as a possibility). The "proof" should be in the actions, not coms.
