Automatic Demotion

I've seen this way too often in rank play where Blue Team is doing well and then someone makes one mistake and one player ends up going afk and game just spirals into one hell of a game loss, or in Red Team where there is a complete toxic player and they just get reported, maybe get a warning for their "first offense".

I honestly think that besides getting banned in the future (where they'll just create a new account anyway) that there should be an on-going repercussion for inappropriate behavior --- maybe an auto demotion of some sort. For their first offense they get demoted one rank (ie: plat 1 to plat 2, plat 2 to 3, etc), and as re-occurring offense would be an actual league rank demotion (ie: from plat to gold, gold to silver, etc).

Maybe have a time-out punishment on que time.. half hr, or an hour.. maybe longer.

IF youre going to implement a system like that then they better fix their tribunal and not ban for petty shit like "guys plz stop feeding" or "noob ahahaha" . For w.e reason riot thinks these are offensive phrases. I would love to meet the person banning me in real life and see what kind of verbal abuse he actually finds offensive when he isn't hiding behind an LCD monitor

Banning at a level like plat can be detrimental and can cause someone to just leave league of legends. People dont just land in plat. It takes alot of time to acquire a good number of runes, champions, masteries and actually be able to play ranked games and climb that high. First offense demotion is just stupid, a chat restriction is enough, I would never play a ranked game during a chat restriction because of how frustrating it gets to communicate your thoughts.
