I'm going to explain the current system and why "trolls" don't get punished.

First, allow me to fully explain the system for anyone who is confused. With how the system currently is, it takes a certain amount of reports from players to get noticed by the system. Personally, it is why I hate this system because it is possible, while unlikely, but possible to get punished without saying a single thing simply because you hit that point of notice. You however will not get punished by false reports alone again, because how this system works. Yeah, we all get false reports and the system knows that hence why those "trolls" you report don't get banned. It takes a plethora of games to even get a warning, and then even more to even get chat restricted, hence why "trolls" don't get banned as often as you think, now onto the "trolls".

I'm not going to sit here and lie to you and act like trolls don't exist in this game. There are legitmate trolls, chronic afkers, and ragers in this game, however, you need to understand that you don't get one every game, you just don't, that isn't possible, no matter then elo, I have been from every elo except Master and Challenger and can say you get a TRUE troll, afker, or rager one every ten games, if that. What you DO get however is someone who snapped at that one moment and is breaking the rules that once every once in a while. That person who afks, doesn't afk every game. That "troll" who is 0/10/0 doesn't do that every game, that rager doesn't rage every game either, still report them, but you can't expect everyone who does that once to get banned? "But why not, they are breaking the rules, it should be one and done." Ok, so then every player in the game, including you and me would be banned. Don't sit here and lie and act like you have never done something like that yourself. You have trolled, you have afked, you have raged, you have done at least of these things, and that is why you see that person doing it in your one game and not being banned.

Now onto the "trolls who feed". I want you to look through your entire league match history, if you can't, go to your lolking, now tell me, is there a single game where you haven't just fed, just sucked, just got dumpstered, tried to fix your mistake and only made it worst, if the answer is yes, then you now know why that person went 0/10 that one game, if your answer is no, I need you to stop lying. Now, when someone starts feeding, yeah, it is annoying, it is infuriating in fact, but honestly, what will harping about them do? What will saying "report XXX person, feeding" going to accomplish? What is making them feel like shit going to do besides make the next couple of minutes hell? Nothing, what it might make them do is trigger them into actually feeding or afking anyway which only makes the whole experience worst.

TL; DR Not everyone who does badly or afks does it consistently which means that they aren't trolls. Not everyone who feeds is a troll. Realize that we have all fed at sometime and they likely aren't doing it on purpose.

Well... devil's advocate here... someone who rages in one game does not necessarily ever rage in any other games.

Exactly, hence why that person doesn't get banned, and why they also shouldn't. Yeah, raging is bad, but it is human to get pissed.

Nope. One of the things the automated system is looking at is the percentage of games that you offend in.

Maybe, but aren't the automated bans I've been hearing about failing to take that into account?

No, but what is likely happening is that people are lightly raging or breaking the rules on top of false reports that tag them.

Automated band are for text chat. So if the system sees one curse word or what ever keyword that would be on the list it will probably take that into account but not ban just yet. But if they continue basically saying it in all the games they play that day it will probably trigger it as consistent and ban the player if they type that word(s) in all their games.

I have yet to see someone get ban for just saying GGEZ, it's usually much more complicated than that. With that swearing for the most part has been ok in the game. It's the context. The example you gave is ok, and again someone that isn't ban able. Unless you can show us proof. But of the chatlogs I've seen from numerous years coming ok this board most of what you said in this topic is just false.

False reports get thrown out. If you get a lot of false reports more often than not in sure someone looks into your account to see why you are getting falsely reported, but again if they don't find anything that is reportable then the reports don't count for anything. So why you assume that even with false reports you can get ban is just wrong!

yes and no my friend quit a year ago i saw the perma ban email. assuming what he said was true he got a huge number of chat restrictions off false reports and it did change him becuase it became something that wasnt earned and ultimately never ending.

"all it takes is enough false reports and one slip and you are boned. it will continuously get chat restrictions n after the other for even just one slip up...." he kept getting cr after cr no matter how he behaved for two of them he was nice or silent and the number would go up and up so the third oen he said "fuck it" clearly it doesn't matter now.

from what he said it doesn't just punish you but it rapes you tell you just dont want to play any more not only does the number go up in an act to provoke you into proving your self the way the player base treats you your better of making a new account all togather

at work they where geius enough to say we wont let this kid go at the end of the 90 days becuase you donly like him 1 year later now after all the chest puffing and the lets go out back and fight hes still a problem failing to do his job.

i see lyte and i see flamers and i see my work and i see the basic question of has nobody once thought to ask "why".

im not saying flaming is good im saying as you have that if you where doing as you should be and weren't going out of your way to agitate another why would they be flaming you. the answer is

"if every one did as they should while actually helping not acting liek they are helping the world would be a perfect place where we where all fat dumb and lazy with no worries or problems."

when you look at it closely while flaming isnt good its hardly THE problem lyte makes it out to be. that 0/20 is far more of a problem then me or any one else angry with them

The problem with posts like these is that the intended audience doesn't come to the player behavior forums or read the rules. It's only after they get the chat restriction/ban that they come on the forums and rage about how unfair it is.

my friend did two 1v1 against a kid who picked a fgiht he admitted he was toxic alough only mildly cuase of how bad and how much shit the kid talked. he got a automated message both games. ive seen his perma ban message and ive seen him when he is mad.

im surprised he didnt destroy his computer he was just that mad when he decided to be done with lol

"fuck riot" "fuck lyte that stupid bitch" "hell no i wont play mobas" his new favorite lines in regards to mobas after seeing the same bs in hots despite liking blizzard and knowing they are more professional then lyte on this issue of toxicty

if blizzard bans you i promise you it was thoroughly earned sense i did get a 24 hour chat restriction when i lost it over three games

You can, if you premade with people and get reported constantly, you can get punished without saying anything.

I have an issue with my rage as well. I used to rage nearly all the time but thankfully It has improved so now It is normally the 1st game I play where I get salty.
