Got reported for offensive language 3 games in a row after i muted everybody in the game as soon as it started. Not sure how not saying a word is considered offensive language. This tribunal is broken as fuck!!!
I used to not get reported for verbal abuse/offensive language when i muted everybody and not talk but i guess now riot considers silence as offensive language.
EndlessSorcerer6 votesPeople can report you for whatever they want.
That doesn't mean that the reports are valid or will have any affect on your account.
The warnings are automated and display occasionally after you are reported. It has nothing to do with punishment; it just means people have been reporting you.
Jamaree2 votesHow do you know you got reported?
Fowus2 votesthey probably asked the other team or told him he was getting reported after the game
DrCyanide1 votesIf you've been reported enough you get warnings that pop-up after the game, roughly similar to how Honor pops up after you leave the lobby.
I don't think most people see these, as they haven't been reported enough times to get the pop-up, but it's possible that people who are on the edge of the warning, or who have gotten light punishments in the past but are changing their ways (like the OP), could get the warning after any report.
RUNAAANS HYDRAA2 votesI'd suggest informing your team mates at the beginning of the match, that you prefer to communicate through pings, and won't be available on chat :)

I'd suggest you take off your rose colored glasses and drink a big, steaming mug of "WAKE UP, people are jerks!" Rito's system is FAIL. 
RUNAAANS HYDRAA1 votesI just peeked at your boards profile, and nearly 90% of your comments are hyper-pessimistic and just chock full of steaming heaps of Rito-hatred. I'm glad you at least like this game enough to keep playing it!

I call them like I see them. I'm a bottom-dweller in bronze's basement, if you spent any time there this season, you'd understand. All of you guys in the higher tiers think you have it bad, but you'd be wrong. Also, unlike most of you, I'm a misanthrope, so I don't duo queue to be able to advance. I've been around quite a bit, and have some game experience, yet here I am. Check my lolstarz profile. I'm just at the point where I will break my back helping out when the team is down for the same, but if it's a bunch of yahoos, I can't be bothered to carry them, most times.
nerak232 votesHow does anyone know that the reports you talk of are not for games you played before ? Does anyone know for a fact that the popup comes up after every game you get reported in? Right after you get reported, I mean it could be a meaningless chance.
I have to remind everyone that a person could get reported for something else: say for IE e-mote spamming the whole game and not know what to report it under so goes with verbal...I AM Not accusing you of this OP !!
I have read countless threads on how to annoy people without saying a word. So, when a thread like this comes up and people start the " FU Riot Your Free games sucks !!! even though nothing has happened yet" forgive me if I want something more...
It's possible on this new section that you could get an answer to this question were it worded a bit different or who know as is might get attention also, anyway as the others have given you some good advice I won't add to that part, GL and have fun playing if you can op. :)
Linthe1 votesThere is no tribunal? And getting reported is not the same as getting punished.
TrickShady1 votesI got the warning after every game and I was like wtf I didn't say a word all game. This is so stupid.
Zielmann3 votesThe warning is an automatic quick-feedback tool. If you know the reports were false, then there's nothing to worry about.
ninjaIRL 2 votesFalse reports won't do anything, don't worry about it. That is unless, of course, you are actually guilty of such offenses.
Just chill, false reporters will get diminish effects on their reports. Don't lash out, Riot's system actually looks at evidence along with the reports as long as you don't actually do that offense it's completely harmless to your account.
Habitz1 votesDid you warn them that you're ignoring them? I did this once and got reported by the guy I blocked. He also trolled and got everyone to report me. His logic was all I have to do is unblock him and he'll stop trolling. So apparently everyone felt I was responsible for his behavior.
Azalone1 votesMaybe this wouldn't be a problem if Riot brought back the tribunal. The tribunal has been down all last season and I'm not convinced anything is being done to address the worst of the worst because there's no way of knowing if anyone is working on it. We need the tribunal back and it ought to be a top priority of Riot as they do this preseason stuff.
Anomander1 votesPregame/post game.
TrickShady1 votesI honestly have zero trust in riot so i do believe i will eventually get punished for no reason. This is one of the worst companies that exists in the world.

They send you reform cards with your punishment. The reform card shows the reason you are punished. So you'd have pretty clear proof. If they are so untrustworthy, stop playing, but the rate of false positive is 1/5000. And if you DO get punished, you'll be able to overturn it.
nerak231 votesI can think of another reason where a player might get a report after a game they said nothing in.
I think hard and long if a person deserves a report before giving one often waiting 10-15 mins. after the game is over and everyone is done talking. Then I try to find the right thing to put it under and decide what to say. Meaning that someone I report would most likely get the report I sent in after another game. Food for thought.

Yea, same. I think very hard if I'm being petty because I had a bad game or if they were being needlessly inflammatory, at least in some cases.
kaleb bartlett1 votesIf you really aren't saying anything then you don't have anything to worry about. Any punishments are checked by a human before being enacted (other than leavebuster)
