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.
