Banning Toxic Players
Why do people think they can get away with getting reported? When we report people, they say things like "It won't do anything" or "Nothing will happen". Why? Reporting people should be affected. Most of these people create the community, and give money to play the game. Which funds Riot. But, these people are getting out of hand. Reporting people with writing in the space below should get banned. Not just a pat on the wrist. People are constantly flaming, going "afk" (not doing anything and walking around in base so they get blue essence or just leaving in general), or trolling and getting away with it. I reported a person today because they had the role of support but they went mid. He (
) came into a draft pick lobby and said "me mid". I (
), being the mid laner, said "no, you're bot", thinking he looked at the wrong champ. He continued to say "me mid" and wouldn't switch to support. So I was forced to play support in order to keep the game somewhat in balanced. During the game, he fed early game and constantly flamed our team and the opposing team by calling champions garbage and by spam pinging on multiple occasions. Pinging once or twice is fine, sometimes spam pinging is okay when you need to do it. But spam pinging to either annoy others or to make someone do something they don't want to do (ie. spam pinging to get a gank multiple times, spam pinging tower or champions on random occasions whenever the jungler is nearby, etc.). Yes I do these things sometimes whenever I get tilted or when I am having a bad day. At the end of the game though, he said "reports don't do anything" and that only 1 report will do something, multiple reports don't do anything. People agreed because it's kind of true. Whenever I report someone once, they get banned or put in LPQ (Low Priority Queue). But when multiple people ban the same person, nothing happens. Maybe once or twice, but these things are very rare. These reports need to do some work because with them doing nothing, toxic people in this community will just get worse.
TL;DR, Reports aren't doing anything and they need to be fixed to actually do something to toxic players because this entire community is made up of toxic people.
