Riots ignorance to its toxic player base has made my favorite game turn into my most hated and most frustrating game I have. The game is so good, but the players... the players Riot continues to let ruin the game. Its just like how Dunkey put it, the game brings out the worst in people. The competitive game play is unforgiving and there are far too many unsportsmanlike people out there. Riot will only punish/ban the smallest fraction of the toxic players. As much as anyone would like to argue Riot is hard at work there are still awful behaviors with every game I play. Until Riot becomes a force to be reckoned with toxic players, players gets away with just enough toxicity to ruin every other game played.

All newcomers to this game, Get out while you can. Much more fun and relaxing games out there.

riot expects too much of their playerbase.

you have a duo intentionally feeding and the game is 100 percent over because of it?

"keep playing for an extra 20 minutes because 2 people can say no to the ff and it becomes invalid "

"dont flame or get angry that you're going to lose league points from the games decision to bring a whole team down due to 2 people trolling"

"dont say "report this guy" because thats toxic and THATS what ruins the game"

"the 3 of you sit together in a circle and hold hands as if its kindergarten"

what if im not that kind of person?

what if im playing to win and i dont like that 2 people want to ruin my game?

why cant i leave?

why do i have to be forced to play a game thats 100 percnt unwinnable for an extra 20 minutes?

does riot know how their game works?

when you're behind, it is NOT fun.

there is NO fun in getting destroyed.

It isn't toxic players who get banned. It is toxic players who lose games. If a toxic player is winning and mocking everybody on the other side and saying ez every game they don't lose, unless they are being hugely racist and abusive, they won't get enough reports for a penalty. However if a player is having a bad game, and is the chosen bully target of every moron on their team, gets tilted and responds to the people spouting blame and abuse at them, it is that player who takes the fall which gets punished mostly. Especially if it happens consecutively and they use bad language in their retaliation. Best bet is to mute them and keep your mouth shut unless it is contributing to the game, because the system doesn't care who is really being toxic, it cares about who is being reported for it. But from what I understand at least you can't get punished for not being toxic. It's just the wrong kind of toxic people who get punished sadly rather than the worst of them who start the mess to begin with.

The community is still shit in 2018 because of the Sale of League to an asian company. They put in place an automated ban system, so toxic players report anyone who speaks up for the team. Hence causing justified defenders, and team players to be banned; and the trolls to roam freely. League will never improve until reports are monitored by real people, who aren't asian commericalists. Big asian companies push games to make them money, and let the communities drive them into the ground. I agree with the O.P. The game is great, but the players are the lowest form of sewer scum. The fact the League is still one of the top 5 games, is complete bullshit, and goes to show how ratings are terrible. The community alone should prevent it from ever being top again. They only look at the masses that play it, not the quality of the gameplay itself. It is truly sad that it hasn't been improved in 2018. Hell riot games still doesn't even care if our accounts are hacked. Still no account security, anyone can just reset an account password. Proves how stupid they are, and how poorly they're handling the games future.

I totally agree. just as an example: today there were 2 premades trashtalking me and because in their opinion i played bad. it started with them calling me drunk, but it got worse. I stood up to them and told them to knock off flaming people. they said they werent flaming and stuff. I think some people dont even realise how toxic they are and this is an serious issue. as long as riot doesnt start punishing these players who keep trashtalking every game, nothing will change.

Riot does'nt give a damn about you players enjoying the game, they just want money and the cash. They will ban the toxic players who flame the trolls and trashtalkers. If you go 0/10 in ranked game, riot would'nt care, because they only use bots to track down the players who flame the trolls, clearly explains you can get a maximum of 4 skilled players who probably spent so much money on that stupid game banned. This leads to the skilled players become toxic instead, and make bad decisions, the same troll are creating these toxic players over and over.

I mean, toxic players do get punished. But in most cases toxic players also get extra chances to try and reform. Even with the IFS it is a hard thing to take out all toxicity in a game, if it was easy almost no games would have toxicity.

At least that is what we would hope. There will always be someone somewhere trying to make things worse for others. To top it off, how do you determine if someone is being toxic? There are some black and white case, but there are also cases when it is hard to determine intent.

Is the community bad? Yes, some of it. Is all the community bad? No.
