Ah, yes, the Christmas spirit.

So I've been playing DotA 2 for a while and decided to get back into 5v5 matches in LoL for a while. I've been having fun, though not doing amazing. I mostly used to play dominion in LoL, but there are too many bots in dominion now :(.

Anyways, as a solo player I get matched up with groups of friends all the time, and it never ends well. I never get help in my lane, and I am always insulted no matter what I do. They all said they wouldn't help me because I fed... I was 4/8/1 at the end of the game, and they were all worse off than me. Our Ezreal was 0/11 for starters.

Anyways, I really wish like in DotA 2 that players were notified if their report of a player did anything (like caused them to be suspended or banned). This type of behavior is just not right. I can understand that players might be frustrated at me for trying to learn a hero I haven't played in a while, or that I am trying to get back into LoL, but still. I hope Riot actually looks at the chat log, because all 4 of them reported me because they are friends, when in fact they are the ones that were very toxic.

Anyways, sorry to complain, I usually never post on the boards, but I just wanted some visibility on this issue. I don't know if this happens at higher MMR or not, but it's pretty bad at lower MMR. The majority of my games have been smooth sailing, though, and quite a few players have been helpful. It's not even the words that phase me, it's just anoyying that 4 friends would rather throw the game by not helping the non-friend on their team simply because they think it would be fun. It's a waste of time.

/rant.

I blocked out their names for obvious reasons, but I really do hope Riot looks into it. I'm not a saint myself, and sometimes I do spam when I get upset, but I would never go this far, or insult someone over the whole course of a game, or purposely not help someone on my team.

When I was in gold 2 I had people like this frequently. Generally plat players. My favorite was the standard 'drink bleach' or 'go slit your wrists'. Unfortunately all you can do is report these people and hope that eventually your reports are seen and action is taken.
