League of Legends Community

I love league of legends. I have played since season 3 and it has always been fun. But, within the last 3 seasons the league of legends community has gone so down hill. By that I mean, the toxicity, the negativity, the aggression is unreal. I would say 4 out of 5 games have 1 to 3 toxic players, especially low elo. I have never ever wanted to stop playing this game before until the last 2 to 3 seasons. I understand that muting them is an option, and that is an option that i generally take, but when they int and rag on everyone else because they let 1 kill go, the whole game is lost. This discussion board is to hope that riot sees it and can maybe do something about it because the current banning system and reporting system is so messed up and broken, it is ridiculous. I just want those people that are ruining games for everyone else on a regular basis banned so that we can get back to the fun loving league that I remember before it got so dang serious and evil. If anyone else has stories, or similar experiences, I would love to hear them because I know that I am not the only one that feels this way. On a little side not, I too have flamed before, we have all done it, I understand that and I too have had bad games as well, but there is a very defined line between too far and just a bad day.

There's plenty of things that can go wrong. Personally attempting to sell league to the ENTIRE game community is opening windows for those toxic individuals, there's also the Dunning-Kruger Effect , which leads often to people looking down on other's for their mistakes. I wish more was taken to improve the concepts of healthy attitude, as well as more being taken to make the competitive game less abusive to the losing side.

Is Riots banning and reporting system good enough?

Yeah it needs work. Bans should not be issued to an extent for anything chat related, and chat moderation should not be strict or exist at all

Some people get their emotions out through writing or typing. Even if it isn't aimed at someone specific, you can still get banned even though someone could just mute you if they're tired of it. Riot needs to ban actual unhealthy things for the game and be a little less strict on chat. If they're super toxic like old t1 or some crap then yeah, they need a ban. But regular players having some bad days or getting called out for inting and explaining that inting means intentional betting banned is not okay.
