Do reports matter?

It seems like I regularly get toxic/ inting players, and I've kind of learned to accept that if I play LoL I am going to get called the n word for not ganking bot 5 times a minute or the f word for missing a skillshot, or have a teammate gets upset over an accidental ks and runs down mid for 10 mins with 5 zeals and mobis. I'm not shocked or upset that the LoL community is like that, but what I am upset about is the apparent lack of a meaningful report handling system. If I have someone say "f*** u stupid (n)" and I check them on OP.GG 10 minutes later and they re still playing matches, that's kind-of disappointing. If the system is automated I feel like stuff like that would be easy to detect. It makes me feel like RIOT has abandoned policing the community unless it serves them in some way.

Reports do matter. The system isn't perfect, and not all reports trigger immediate action, but reports are what make the system work.

Also note that if a player boots up a game prior to the punishment being activated, they won't receive it until AFTER the game they're in.

I don't know within a single day I got 6/8 notices that a person was punished when I reported.

for me the best way for reports to matter is to not converse with the toxic person because you are very likely to begin sounding toxic as well. that way the flagged game seems more likely to give me a pop up saying they were punished
