Reportable Summoner Names = Reportable Club Tags

Ko Clover··2 votes·1,822 views

Riot, if you're going to make it so you can report an offensive or inappropriate summoner name, you need to add this feature to club tags, too. "KKK" is offensive, and has no place in League of Legends, the same goes for someone whose summoner name would be ki11.all.%%%z; - they're both inappropriate, but only one is able to be voted out of the game. (see, I can't even type f-g without it being censored)

Those who will quote the First Amendment, I suggest you brush up again on what the First Amendment is, what it means, and what it applies to.

Seriously, Riot, take this club name out of the game. It's really inappropriate and I can't believe you'd consider keeping it.

Please use the Inappropriate Summoner Name report option for Clubs, Club tags, and Team names. If you need to report one outside a match you can use a Support Ticket.

Riot needs to expand upon the options in-game, then. There's no indication you can use it for clubs, tags, and team names.

This has been passed up through the Player Behavior teams already.

I'm glad, but it should not be allowed in the first place.

I know what KKK means but hmm...it could be the "kkk" like "ok" and I use that a lot when I talk to my friend.

Maybe it isn't intentional.

Intentional or not, if Riot is able to make a chat filter to censor offensive words like f-g and the n-word, it should go without saying that KKK should be disallowed.

I wouldn't focus too much on the KKK-thing... There's a reason this thread got locked up: http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/player-behavior-moderation/OVoRxQQ8-the-kkk-clan-tag-is-offensive I also think that thread contains pretty much all the arguments for and against that one could come up with.

On the general topic of offensive club tags: Obviously they should get removed/changed, and I'm fairly certain they are. And what's more, I'm pretty sure there is a filter in place. But just like the chat filter, it's easily circumvented and won't catch every single thing. E.g. I'd guess that "KKK" wouldn't be censored if you said it in-game.

For NA servers specifically this is vital that it be removed/reported.
