Why am I receiving chat restrictions when other people are not?

MexicanLyncher·Oct 6, 2016·1 votes·557 views

I just received a chat restriction which is fair because I guess I deserved it. My question is why are the people who troll and cuss me not receiving them as well? If you cuss at me and troll the entire game and I decide to cuss back at you than we both deserve a damn chat restriction. Pretty damn unfair how my reports are being blatantly ignored by Riot while these people can ruin others games and not get a single lick of trouble.

Now I have to wait another millennium to get enough essences to unlock mastery 6 for my morgana. Just more unfair bullshit brought to me from this game...

well, for one you don't know if someone else got punished, as you only get punishment notifications if the game you reported them in was the game that punished them, and not while the case is building against them.

They could have gotten punished next game and you'll never know.

That being said, Riot is looking to improve the behavioral system's visibility, but we won't get to see the new features until after the new client is up and running smoothly.

I don't believe that's true.

The game sends a notification to you when someone gets punished saying something along the lines of " summoner continued to display bad behavior and is now being punished" Which means they were also reported in another game after mine. If someone cusses me out the entire game and trolls... that should be an instant punishment and should not take multiple games for that to take effect like it does for me.
I've had people in next games specifically tell me about an individual who I just so happened to have been recently played with and was clearly not chat restricted because he trolled/cussed them out too.

There seems to be very little faith in the penal system in this game. When you start a match and people blatantly engage a 1v3 fight then use both of their spells and still die, then cuss you out for not helping them as they continue to repeat this process not listening to logic at all. You get annoyed a say somethings and end up getting reported and losing a game all because these people don't give a shit if they win or lose.

I just wish I could play troll/toxic free individuals who don't intentionally bait people into reports. It's a bit fuc*ed if you ask me.

it actually says "Due to their recent actions a player you reported has been punished by the tribunal".

The only time you'll see that message is that when you reported them in that game. If they were punished by the system, and then you'll see that message within 15 minutes of the game ending. No other time.

Of course, you are free to believe what you wish, its the internet afterall.

**Bottom line is, the features that improve visibility won't be here until the new client is done. **

Bottom line- If someone starts off the game calling me and the other teammate a NIGG*R and I tell him to "stfu" he should get instant restriction. I report and this message does not pop up at all. Accept the fact that I am 100 percent correct and you have no idea what you are talking about. I'm getting very annoyed with the illogical nonsense from this penal system riot has developed .

Has anybody mentioned OP's name yet?

I mean, if I'm manually reviewing somebody's behavior for toxicity, it's tough to give the benefit of the doubt to somebody called "MexicanLyncher".

I am sure there is a Louis CK line here somewhere about minding your own troubles.

MexicanLyncherOct 6, 20161 votes

Right, so it's fair for me to get treated like shit and wanting to know why these people are also not getting punished? your logic is on point.

MexicanLyncherOct 6, 20161 votes

yeah, let's downvote his comment but not discuss the reasoning behind why toxic players are not getting punished. Intelligent group of people here I see. Thank you all for your insight. lmao

Toxic players do get punished as is evident with you. Your concern is that you're worried other players who deserve punishment aren't receiving punishment.

While they may have been toxic in your game, as long as they aren't displaying consistent or extreme toxicity, they likely won't be punished.

The system is designed to punish those who exhibit extreme or consistent toxic behavior only and pardon those who had a bad day or tilted a bit.

Your concern is answered with your case though, if they do indeed deserve a punishment, they will receive one as you have.

MexicanLyncherOct 6, 20161 votes

So what you are saying is you can be extremely toxic in one game and a saint in the next and not get punished? thanks for the info! I'll be sure to adapt to the "correct " play style of league, which is extremely toxic one game and a complete joy the next...... Good to know this is a well adapted system. designed to not produce any productive results.

KüramaOct 6, 20164 votes

Nope. If you exhibit extreme toxicity in one game you can receive a punishment you can also receive punishments for mild-moderate levels of toxicity over a short period of time.

Being toxic in one game, then being a saint in another then reverting to toxic in the following game will land you punishments and punishment tiers can escalate into account closure.

Even if you skip a few games or even a lot before you start exhibiting toxic behavior, you'll still be punished.

What I'm stating is, somebody who usually isn't toxic but had a bad day and was toxic in one game but reverts to their usual positive or neutral behavior afterwards would not be penalized.

I advise you to reform your behavior to avoid further punishments because you won't evade the system by being a saint in a few games in between your toxic ones. Even if you're a saint in some games, it doesn't excuse your toxic behavior in others and the system will detect your toxicity and punish you for it.

Breaking the rules, is breaking the rules. Irregardless of how often you are a positive player. If you violate the summoners code then you deserve to punished. Your logic is flawed along with your argument.

KüramaOct 6, 20163 votes

The system is designed to punish players who exhibit extreme and/or continuous toxic behavior. Like I stated, the system takes into consideration of those who had bad days. This doesn't excuse them from their behavior and if they continue to exhibit this behavior they will be punished.

This practice is pretty much adopted around the globe. You receive a few chances at first but if you continue to exhibit inappropriate behavior, punishments will follow. In some cases here and in life, no chances are given due to how extreme the circumstance may be.

ZezockaryOct 6, 20162 votes

No, what he is saying is that if you occasionally have bad days you won't get punished, but if you show negative behavior over a period of time, as you are suggesting now that people get away with, then you will get punished.

The system works, as the above people said you will only get notified if you reported them in the game that got them restricted/suspended/banned. I also heard somewhere that it had to be the last report out of the bunch if multiple people are reporting them but I could be wrong on that. Either way, its the system that tells you that someone got punished that needs serious work, which it will get.

You seem to believe that for whatever reason the system targets you with a higher priority than other people doing the same thing. In order for that to be the case Riot would have had to code it specifically with your username in mind, which I guarantee they did not do. That would be counter-productive to creating a stable report system, and cost them extra resources on top of it.
