To those who say riot does punish trolls

I've had a lot of arguments with people who claim riot punishes trolling and not saying mean words to people. Optimistic people swear up and down that riot will review vods and punish people who griefed obviously in their games, and I've mentioned that if riot wanted to find trolls there literally entire youtube series where you can find clips of people griefing and nothing ever happens to them. Well to further point out examples of how pointless riots anti-griefing system is, if you watch TF blades latest vid he gets a yasuo who rages at someone... feeds... goes afk, comes back and feeds some more. End of game TF blade says he can tell from match history the account was boosted or changed hands and reports the guy, and says in ticket he's sending vod. (IDK if he ever did or not, but you can see the game on youtube)

Anyways, this player has since that game, played 37 more games. Several of them with similar, very suspect scores. Now I get that there's a problem with establishing a standard of reasonable expectation in this game, since a ton of its playerbases playstyle is indistinguishable from trolling. But if a clear cut case of flaming, afking and inting all in one game, with a streamer recording and broadcasting it, isn't getting punished... then wtf is? Just that poor sap that gets fed up with the ragequitting yasuo's and eventually snaps and goes off on him get the punishments it would seem.

They do both. Its isnt a one or the other thing. Of course its 1000s of times harder to find evidence to ban someone for trolling.

And feeding is subjective a guy i used to argue about this on the forums with said he was trolled in nearly 100% of his games because he considered 0/2 intentionally feeding.

However riot doesnt belive in punishing for simply being shit at the game. So even 0/10 isnt enough to get you banned. As its 100% possible you could just be bad at the game.

i get that its harder to detect but you can shove evidence in their face and they wont do anything about it, thats what gets annoying

Riot doesnt pay attention to these posts so what good is it talking about it?
