Question about Obvious Intentional Feeding

Ulquiorra0123··2 votes·427 views

So I just played 2 games in a row: The first was with one very obvious intentional feeder (literally quit after first death, came back, sold all items and proceeded to walk into the enemy team as many times as possible as long as they weren't afk in fountain). The 2nd was a Garen and Sol duo who just died again and again claiming they were trying but it was very obvious even to a new player that they weren't (walking up to the enemy Veigar and spamming taunt, hello?).

Why are they not banned immediately following the game? They just went out of their way to ruin an hour of my time (as well as 15 other people's) which could have been spent in another game but i said "hey lets play league and hope for the 10% chance at a decent game" (it is actually sad that i get a decent game 1/10 games, that is a matchmaking issue, nothing to do with this post). But yet all 3 accounts just walk into next game like it never happened? I guess I'm all for 2nd chances, but when you ruin someone's game literally just because reasons, you should be punished harshly for it. Something like a 2 day ban from anything but ARAM followed by a permanent ban the next time it happens. I know that sounds really harsh, but you know, if you are going to go out of your way to ruin 9 other people's time, you do not deserve to be in this community. I'm very curious about Riot's view on intentional feeding, because all 3 accounts are still out there playing games, when they just shouldn't be.

I'm currently under a 2-week ban for intentional feeding (first time it ever happened, won't happen again). Mine was obvious too.

If there are enough reports from those matches and it is super obvious that intentional feeding happened, they should get caught and punished in the same way I did, no more than 15 minutes after the game ends.

My "2nd chance" is being allowed to return to the game after 2 weeks, but as punishment, I'm not going to be able to receive key fragments for Hextech Chests until my account is no longer deemed "toxic" by the system (I have no idea how long that will take...). Do you think the punishment needs to be more severe than that?

Yes I actually do think it needs to be more severe. First time should be a 2 day ban, 2nd time is 7 days, 3rd is 14 days. Every time after that is a month. I do not believe in Perma-bans, they are just not good for the game, and only ruin people's hard work. Every single time it is very obvious, I'm not talking the 1-15 new player who happens to face a smurf. I'm talking the nunu who consumes your buff level 1 on your team. I'm talking the top laner who just leaves the game after feeding first blood, or the mid laner who is obviously not trying and just sits mid the entire game without any care for what is happening around them. Hell there should be a system in place that can detect these almost immediately, oh wait apparently there is one but they give them like 6 different opportunities to be a positive team member before doing something about it. I know a friend of mine who intentionally fed in 8 of his 10 promo games to get placed lower, should have been banned immediately following each game, he didnt even get rewards taken away xD

In other words, i do not mind their severity right now, I think it just needs to have less leniency. 100%. It needs to be first time offense is met with a small suspension. It is the only way to put it across to the community that they actually mean what they say in fixing this toxic community.

I hear you, but I don't think you realize what I'm saying.

My first offense -is- a 14 day suspension. Intentional feeding is not tolerated by Riot. I think a second offense turns into a perma-ban, but I'm not sure.
