SOMEONE FEEDING ALMOST EVERY GAME, WHY ARE REPORTS DOING NOTHING?

Crammy Andlemin··1 votes·1,700 views

I feel like almost every single round of the last hundred rounds I’ve played, someone is intentional feeding. Or dying relentlessly while maintaining, “I’m tryin my best.” Regardless of it being intentional or not, feeding is definitely becoming a bigger problem. Why is reporting these people leading to little or no punishment? I can’t imagine I’m the only person reporting these feeders, so how come they are so frequently on my team and continuing to do what they are doing? Could you guys please create harsher punishments for feeders? Or would it possible for you guys at Riot to somehow red flag these people who are getting reported for feeding, then they could join into red flag queues with other feeders, and they could just have fun doing their feeding thing together or whatever the heck they get out of it. Another idea that comes to mind, and this could clear up intentional or unintentional feeding, would be that if someone is frequently reported for feeding, they are FORCED to play out 100 games against Bots (or 20, or 50, or however many). That way, if it was intentional, they won’t be able to mess up other people’s games for at least 100 rounds, and if it really is unintentional feeding, well then these kids will be getting the practice they need to actually play on a level against real people. I know for a fact that playing against bots helps you learn the mechanics of individual characters, and also has helped me to become almost a pro level farmer (have gotten over 200 cs by 20 mins several times, and over 700 in an hr) so anyone who says “bots don’t help,” I don’t care that you think that, because they have in fact helped me. I’m sick of trying to take this game seriously and having someone on my team sabotages me almost every round. I’m sick of having hope for good team mates, and feeling powerless against my lane opponent who has 5 kills when I have 0 deaths. RIOT PLEASE FIND A BETTER WAY TO DEAL WITH FEEDERS! Its gotten to the point where I would literally rather be verbal abused by my entire team and have them playing well, then have a feeder.... Please fix this riot. I can at least mute a verbal abuses, but i can't make a feeder not feed.

Cant tell you the workign mind of the averrage league player but i do agree the report system needs some sort of over haul. ive been getting trolls every single game and i feel like my reports are doing nothing. There has to be a better system for dealing with the scum of this game.

Probably because they also want action to be taken against those who are feeding "regardless of it being intentional or not".

No player should be additionally punished just for playing poorly. Doing poorly in the game is it's own punishment since you end up losing more games than you win the worse you play.

The bigger issue is that feeders punish their teammates. No player should be punished for a teammate playing poorly, but thats currently how it is.

This is a team game. If the team loses, you lose.

And because the teams are completely random, its a huge flaw.

Make friends and queue up together. Flaw resolved.

KVbqbFsC8e2 votes

That doesn't resolve anything. I prefer playing solo and Dynamic que was the worst thing to ever happen to League.

You complained about teams being random. I told you how to get rid of the randomness. You say you prefer playing solo.... so what do you want? For Riot to only put Challenger ranked people on your team, and fill the enemy team with Bronze players?

I didn't complain about teams being random, I said them being random is part of the flaw about the original issue I pointed out.

Try reading the previous few posts.

If the team loses, you lose. You said "my team is random, that's the flaw". So I suggested playing with 4 friends, or making 4 friends, so you don't have to deal with the random team you get.

See the original issue I had. Someone pointed out that players should not be punished for playing poorly. I said likewise, players shouldn't be punished for their teammates playing poorly, and that is the issue. Someone tried to justify that by saying its a team game, but in Solo que (hence, teams being random) you can't control your teams.

Leading to what I originally said. You get punished for teammates playing poorly. You probably don't understand that because you don't play ranked.

DemothHymside2 votes

I don't play ranked in this game because people are raging assholes who tilt at the drop of a hat, become extremely toxic, or troll / throw a winnable game.

I play competitive in Overwatch and Rainbow Six: Siege, both of which are also team games where you also lose if your teammates play terribly. This is why your point is so confusing.

Every team game (team game) generally means that unless you are waaaaay more skilled than everyone, if your team loses, you lose. That's just how it works. Second, unless you make a premade team, you're going to get matched with random people.

So to your points, how do you propose it's fixed? That if your team loses, you should somehow still win without winning? Or getting match made with random people who aren't random?

If you keep getting queued up with people who are butt, chances are quite high that you are also butt.

If someone feeds obviously they need help. Shut up and go gank for them. They are behind and the enemy is pressuring that. Ergo its a team vs 1 player being hung to dry. Be a team member.

You've crafted a draconian system for people who are still practicing. Sure, bots can help but after a point they just won't do much. They don't teach how to jungle, and you can't prepare for the ingenuity of an actual human being. In addition, IP gains are lower on bots. That means that you are forcing people from being able to earn free champs for long periods of time. 100 games?! That's insane. Even 20 games is cruel, forcing players that just need practice against real humans to slog through game after game to be able to actually earn things again.

Just becuase they arnt good at the game dosent mean you should start flaming everyone starts as a noob and at the end of the match the people you played with are complete strangers you dont know who they are but they try theyre best to play great
