Does it seriously take over a month to ban an obviously boosted player?

I reported this player while they were being boosted over a month ago, and I just encountered them again post-boost.

Can a Rioter explain to me what's not obvious about this, and why this player hasn't been banned?

Because riot only cares about toxic players

how is this person boosted? I only see positive scores, except for the Soraka game, which was just a bad one? since he plays support, probably auto-filled. (no it's not my account, but I really don't see why this person is boosted)

Are you blind?

76 wins, 9 losses, Platinum V, has not won a ranked game since the boost happened.

Their normal MMR is terrible, so the Irelia game was against Bronze/Silver players, and they went 5-8-1 (yet somehow manage to maintain 90% win rate and average 7 KDA in ranked against Platinum/Diamond players)

so you're saying the boosted ended 2 days ago? you see, the person is plat 1 in flex too, out of 46 games. I admit these win ratios are insane, but still.

You do know how the system works, right? If you're on a massive win spree they put you against higher ranked players while giving you people on loss streaks to test you. Also, 3 of these are ranked, 2 of which they went positive with decent CS.

Riot has access to information that will tell them if any account has been shared between people. Given this, if they decide not to punish this player, it's because the player wasn't boosted, at least not by sharing his account.

Keep in mind duo queue boosting, where two people of different elo queue together, is not prohibited.

Dude I reported a twitch streamer who is a self admitted: Account Sharer Account Buyer Account Booster Account Seller Intentional Feeder

All of this was said in-game, backed up on his twitch account. Riot didn't even give him a chat restriction.

Because, despite what you might think, detecting the difference between a boost and a win streak is surprisingly hard to write code for
