nope. also the "report value" is something that does not exist anymore. so false reports are basically no reports

False reports are ignored by the IFS. The IFS is automated, so it's only a little bit of processing time that is wasted, not a humans.

no.

I’m fairly certain that by submitting numerous false reports it puts any future reports you submit further down the waiting list.

This is just my knowledge of the old Tribunal system from many years ago so I could be wrong.

No. It is all automated and Riot doesn't look at the reports unless you prompt them through Riot Support.

I see...apologies for not being informed enough about this.

No apologies are necessary. Riot wants you to believe otherwise. In reality, reports are only successful in detecting keywords like hate speech words. They also have something in place if you AFK too much. For everything else, you have to go the extra mile to bring it to Riot's attention.

This is...pretty inaccurate, given the number of threads we see on just this board containing problematic behavior but no common triggering words.

The IFS isn't flawless, but this is one of the areas it's actually much better at than people seem to give it credit for.

Show me a thread with no trigger words. There are others that aren't hate speech. Like saying "report" repeatedly is another one.

I would have never gotten a ban about a year ago as my first punishment ever if behavior was taken into account.

Sometimes, I wonder why you try so hard to correct forum trolls, knowing that its like whack-a-mole.

But then that's why you're a Herald and I'm just Xurreal.

Yes... and no.

Technically, you can be banned for any reason deemed fit without further notice.

If your reports are flagrant enough, erraneous enough, and toxic enough... I don't see what would stop them from banning an account that frequently submits reports like that.

I think that's why the EULA and Terms of Use are outlined the way they are, to protect their interest in case of something strange like that where someone might just say "I don't see no rules stating I can't do this."


Also, I feel badly for anyone who doesn't take the time to at least skim through the important Legal stuff.
