Report system only works for n word.

By playing couple years of league, I saw people getting banned by continuously throwing and receiving multiple reports which leads on chat ban or higher, using 3rd party system with permanent ban, or being racist on black people with 14 day ban or instant permanent ban. And I was thinking, this report system is bs. Isn't it better for giving game play restriction if the player was purposely grieving multiple times which ruined numbers of players' game, and giving chat restriction + permanent ban on being racist in game?

Isnt it obvious that riot cares about nword only and they dont give a shit on reports if players are throwing or being racist? Multiple times, we can see riot's auto catch/ fast response on n words through community or social media. Even though on game by receiving instant feedback. But where are the other cases? Is racism on other than black is counted as good behavior on riot's standard? By reflecting this game experience, the weights of offenses are (Racism on other than black is ok) < game throwing, cursing in game <<<<<

Gameplay offenses like inting are an instant 14-day, just like the n-word. 14-days are reserved for hate speech and trolling, stuff like that. Chat restricts are for other kinds of toxicity for players who haven't already gotten a punishment. Any racial slurs are an auto-14 day, not just the n-word. The problem is that someone saying a slur is a lot easier to catch than someone trolling unless they're being super obvious about it, so you're more likely to be banned a lot faster for chat.

If you are basing your argument off the the assumption that you get an instant feedback whenever someone gets punished, you are wrong. The feedback loop rarely happens and people are still getting punished.

I've got to be honest, this post is kind of all over the place so I'm just going to list out a few facts about the IFS you may or may not be aware of.

  • You are never guaranteed to receive the IFS notification (instant feedback report.) You can report 9 players in your match and even if they all received a punishment, you still might not get it.

  • Multiple reports don't increase the likelihood of a punishment being given, it only takes one report to trigger a game for automatic review. Anything beyond that is irrelevant.

  • There are multiple stages to the two separate punishment ladders. One is for gameplay (which punishes players with an immediate 14-day suspension followed by a permanent suspension) and the other is for chat (which follows this route: 10 game chat restriction > 25 game chat restriction > 14-day gameplay suspension > permanent ban. Players can jump to an immediate 14-day suspension by using ZT language such as hate speech.)

  • Players aren't punished only for racist behavior. In fact, there are plenty of recorded cases where that claim was proven false right here on the Boards.

  • "Racism towards black people" is not the only racist behavior that is punishable.
