I don't care if the Tribunal was backlogged on cases - at least it still worked

The threat of the Tribunal was obviously enough to keep more people in line.

Several years ago I NEVER had this much trouble playing a real game during certain times of days and hours. The game has basically become off limits on friday night or the weekends unless I want to waste half my games being trolled and griefed by kids who fear no punishment.

The game has devolved into a haven for trolls who know how to abuse people while gaming an automated system that only checks for keywords. When I have to avoid playing the game during the times I actually have free, because riot only punishes the people who get mad and lash out at the trolls, maybe it's time to stop playing.

People have even posted about blatant troll teams who do nothing but enter the game with the purpose of being as abusive as possible, doing things like eating them with kench repeatedly, and those purpose built troll teams never face punishment because they remain silent in chat. Only when someone made a youtube video of one that got someone's attention was any action taken.

The only thing the tribunal was good for was perceived visibility, which the current system lacks.

Everything else, the current system does a better job.

Nah, you're mistaken. I get maybe 1-2 people in 100 games, when before it was a 1/4 chance and it was usually on your team. Tribunal didn't work as well as the auto-punishment system they have in place. I was part of the tribunal. You're going to tell me that it worked when it relied on multiple people looking at the report to judge if they were guilty? I think it took like three yes "they are da guiltiness" but they got "5" chances out of the people that reviewed the reports to see if they were guilty.

The system was bad, especially relying on other people in general outside of trained support staff? It's much better that the system is made from the common variables of all the community than the individuals that made up the tiny tribunal. The tiny bit of RP you got was silly at best as the "reward" should have been helping keep people safe in our community. Instead it attracted types that would just slam the gavel on all the reports regardless. It was really common back in the day.

A constantly backlogged punishment system is a great example of one that doesn't work.

It seems riot should link "player behaviour "section to first punishment message somoene receive. So u can see how"threating" it is to break rules,now.

But

If u believe that system now doesnt work, u are free to break rules
