Played 10 hours straight yesterday

When I was done, I sat there thinking back to the games I've played and can say I didn't enjoy playing any of them. The enjoyment of league is gone, main reason being that there are so many toxicity and trolls in this game. So many that it makes me wonder if Riot even have a team that reviews reports and ban players.

Been playing this game for ~5 years now and have seen all kinds of player, but nothing beats players that plays this game now. They're a whole new level of toxic. I have never seen players that would get mad and flame over 6 cs, it's ridiculous. And trolls would literally waste their 15 min just to ruin the enjoyment of other players by wasting people's time. I get it, there are AFK's, DC, trolls, and I don't even care about losing. It's the 15+ min that I have to waste before I can look for another game to play that pisses me off.

If Riot would seriously do something about these players, this game would be good again. Punishment like chat ban, low priority queue, etc. doesn't solve anything. I know, because in these ~5 years, it's has solved nothing. Separating the player base between good and bad is a viable solution, but Riot refuses to go this route.

If there was a game mode and matchmaking system that queues you with only good behavior players, I would honestly play that over ranked. I don't even like play ranked, but it's the only mode that is competitive and isn't imbalanced like normal blind pick. I think I am honestly done with this game, it's a complete waste of time because there is no system in place that makes this game better.

If you played league for 10 hours and didnt enjoy it i would personally suggest trying other games. That's what i do at least.

Many people suggest playing with friends, and I will have to hop onto that train and suggest it myself. It doesn't solve toxicity, but it sure reduces the amount of toxic players. Additionally, if you're using all chat, you could disable it to save yourself from more potential negativity.

These are plain suggestions, but it's a start.

Either your brain is only making you remember the negative experiences, or you are toxic yourself and causing a lot of the in-game toxicity.

I would most certainly say they never ban people. I get instant feedback reports all the time and just looking through the player behavior boards will tell you that people get banned all the time.

And I can understand Riot not wanting to create of cesspool of players who have bad attitudes. It wouldn't fix the problem, but literally just mask it.

I do agree that toxic players ruin more games than anything else in this game, but I would say that it is better than before they had tribunal and then built this automated system off of the tribunal data. I tried playing back in 2011 and the playerbase was so toxic I couldn't even get through a bot game without having some of the most ridiculous obscenities thrown at me.

But that is just one player's experience.

For some reason I have a hard time believing you! in EUW the flaming used to be 10x as much as it is today. I mean literally 10 times as much if not more, and flamers never got banned, now either people have become friendlier or they actually get banned for flaming so I have to say well done Riot.
