Beyond tired of griefers getting away with murder. It's really getting old Riot.

After about level 4 or so as ADC my morgana support for some reason decides she's going to start autoing minions under turret... and does so after every first hit i make or turret shot. Legitimately screwing me out of every single cs in every single wave... not even getting any of the cs herself.

After the 3rd or 4th wave of this happening I say "morg..." nothing else, JUST THAT. Her response is "sorry". So I think, for a half a second "oh alright, they are chill and they weren't doing it intentionally". Then all of a sudden "but you need to learn some skill and I won't have to". And right up until she started doing this I was actually AHEAD in cs, even while being pushed under turret... So I knew that I was being trolled.

My response is "I can't cs at ALL if you keep hitting every single one on purpose" and her apparent duo, who's been nonstop spamming all chat, mouthing off to the enemy Yi for the past 10 minutes because he's been ganked a few times, says "trist stop bitching already, stfu".

So I say, "whatever just gonna report you both, shrug". "LOL for what? "oh I'll troll you hard now". Morg walks back into lane while im not there... walks past thresh and MF, ults, and attempts to walk into their turret. Then for the rest of the game anytime we're in lane together she uses every single ability she has, not just autoing, to steal every cs possible from me.

Then her and Kayn complain to our team and the enemy team about how bad I am, and I'm "straight up inting" cus I'm 0-5, as if I didn't have a griefer for a support or something. Keeps telling them all to report me for inting, toxic as fuck, yadda yadda.

And meanwhile... I'm probably going to be the one to get punished either for that, or for also asking them to report Kayn/Morgana. And they're either going to get a slap on the wrist if anything, or get away with it completely.

Really fucking tired of griefers like this in this game getting away with absolutely everything. I didn't lose my cool this game, but I have in the past, doing nothing but defending myself, and gotten penalties for it while they get NOTHING. And players like this continue to get nothing. It ruins the gaming experience more than anything else, and it has to fucking stop.

Surprised you didn't get chat restricted for responding to her, instead of just muting and ignoring/reporting like we're 'supposed to do' like good little girls and boys

It really sucks getting people like that and I'm sorry you had to deal with that. People like that are garbage heaps for thinking they can just intentionally ruin others' experiences for their own personal sadistic enjoyment.

#On the topic of seeking justice:

If you wish to seek more direct punishment for those players you can submit a support ticket to Riot Support and they will manually review them. They cannot tell you if they punish the players (privacy reasons) but you can bet that if the players were bad enough that Riot support will handle them accordingly.

http://support.riotgames.com/ . #On the topic of your punishment (or the possibility thereof):

If you didn't do anything wrong then the system will not punish you, and even if it does you can appeal (with Riot Support again). Riot recognizes when players such as yourself were falsely reported, and will usually not allow it to result in any punishment.

Additionally you can take comfort in the fact that multiple reports don't do anything. Any game a player is reported is flagged the same with 1 report as with 9, so they can't increase your likelihood of punishment by lobbying all chat for reports against you (even if it is a complete dick move on their part). this is comforting in another manner because you know that your report is all it takes to flag that game for them to be reviewed and possibly punished.

#On the topic of responding to flamers:

I'm not blaming you here, but you should never have told them you were going to report them. It's never beneficial to respond to trolling. Doing so only feeds their behavior. it works like this:

The player is doing something to try to annoy or hurt you, by responding you give them attention for that. The attention is what is known as the function of the behavior, and it's the motivating force for doing that behavior. If you continue to give them what they want then they will continue to do the behavior even more.

It's better to not respond at all when they say stuff that is clearly trolling (such as that comment about skill) because then they see that they won't get anything for acting like that. Such players will become bored and stop attempting to troll once they realize they can't get anything they want from you by doing it.

Also saying "i'm going to report/report kat." Should not be reportable.

i mean yeah they were trolling you at some point and yeah i hope something happens to them, but as for what she was doing based on your description she was trying to help you get the cs.

In the early game champions often cannot cs caster minions under turret that well without set up. Melee minions will eat two shots and be killable by almost everyone's auto except some mages who just don't have any meaningful ad. Caster minions however tend to be left with 2 autos worth of hp after one turret shot but cannot eat another turret shot without dying. So a good support will auto the casters once before you do so you can get the creeps in one auto after the turret hits them. Now some supports with on-hit affects such as bard or thresh can have some trouble doing this properly but someone like morg should find it easy to do and it can help you. I sympathize with you in that it can mess you up some if you aren't used to it or practice in that situation, it does mess me up some, but based on what I'm hearing from you she was trying to help you in that case and while she trolled the hell out of you after you threatened to report her (which is he being a dick and should be punished) if you come across this situation again maybe either try to work with it or talk to the person and be like, I'm not used to that, can you just let me handle the cs even if I miss a few, I feel like i might miss more with you helping.

Your mistake?

So I say, "whatever just gonna report you both, shrug".

But as has been pointed out already, odd how the automated system didn't just pick on YOU. And let me guess: The trolls were ignored, even after the report, and still keep at it?

Griefing shouldn't be against the rules. Only toxic. Me saying surrender because we are getting blown out is not toxic.

You weren't helping the situation. Something should happen to them, sure, but as a positive player who rarely chats except to make the occasional call, I'll be honest if I was in that game I would have disliked you just as much as the Morg.
