When you ask the enemy team for reports on another player...

I'm just wondering... Are you people asking for reports because you're toxic and just wanna stir the pot? Is it maybe because the person you want to report is actually innocent so you feel like you must rally up the whole lobby to report him? When I'm playing League and I see someone say "report -this player- for blah blah" I simply choose to report the player asking for reports... (knowing that they probably nagged the player they wanna report) I mean is there any good reason to ask for them? If you don't feel like your report is enough then shouldn't you just stfu before getting a harassment report?

Hello there!

Asking for reports is seen as harassment. If they further continue that they will be hit with chat restrictions.

Asking for a report is reportable.

Reporting people as a toxic player, only brings more attention to yourself.

Back in the days, the system used to work based on number of reports. That system was changed 4 years ago and people still haven't gotten out of that old paradigm.

When did they tell us this information? I don't remember receiving this information and I have been around for a long time.

It changed when the IFS got launched. They didn't update their behavior FAQ page and the only way to get this info ia through red posts on here.

One of the small things that irritate me is the state of education of the behavioral system. It's very lacking and it can certainly use some brush ups.

I can check the old forums after work for the Red posts, but as long as I've played, they have never used multiple reports per game to increase odds of punishment.

I think the change you are referring to was dropping report weight, which increased players' report value based on whether they made a lot of trivial reports, or stuck to actionable problems.

No, I don't think it ever relied on multiple reports. They did have weighted reporting, so the system would take the heaviest report and discard the rest.

I understand your point but what if a person is running down mid, only building tears and giving the enemy team kills. Is it still a bad thing to report and get rid of a toxic player so they can't ruin other peoples gaming experience?
