I had a top laner who called everyone on our team the n word in post game chat. I know he got at least 4 reports, two of which were from the enemy team. I decided to take a look at op.gg to see if he was punished and I find that he is playing like usual. I thought this sort of thing was an insta ban? I'm really confused as to why this is allowed.
Aneirin2 votesHe may get an auto chat restriction at first - I think sometimes bans come later on manual review? Don't quote me on that though.
The number of reports doesn't matter, nor who they come from - as long as there's 1 or more reports it'll get processed.
Tony Pajamaz1 votesOne of my friends decided to be edgy and said the same word in post game chat once. He was immediately given a 2 week ban right after the game. It has almost a day and yet nothing has come of it :(
Simba Is The Cub1 votesNot sure what causes it but I've seen players get 25 chat game restriction when saying the n word. However most of the bans regarding racial slurs are 2 weeks temp ban.
Dr Dog1 voteshe should get a insta 14 day ban if riot sticks to their word, your best bet would be a ticket to riot support and dont forget to send in both the replay and the persons summoner name
Best Vi Earth1 votes1 it might triggered a manual review which takes awhile. 2 context
Tony Pajamaz1 votesyou need context for saying the n word?
the definition of the word means ignorant so yes.
Tony Pajamaz1 votesum are u joking?
Best Vi Earth1 voteshuh i guess what i believed in for the longest time was a myth. or merriam-webster could be lying to me. my apologizes ill need to find a better source if there is one.
Tony Pajamaz1 voteshaha no worries.
YerroFever1 votesI'm actually not sure why he wasn't banned shortly thereafter the reports. Typically zero tolerance policy words are picked up if the reports are checked properly by the reporter. So if someone just put griefing and didn't put hate speech, it'll take longer to detect because the IFS isn't reading the chat logs. If you flag it for hate speech, then the IFS is reading chat logs.
To my knowledge, the N word is a zero tolerance policy word, and I think it should stay there. If it indeed has gotten dropped down to a 25 game chat restriction, I would be deeply disappointed with Riot.
