To People Who Think Champ Select and Post Game Chat are Safe

I received this reply from Riot support after submitting a ticket against a player who used post game chat to issue verbal abuse against allies.

;To start off, sorry about this whole situation yo. That'd definitely be a FeelsBadMan moment for literally anyone. :/

Now, verbal abuse and harassment is never OK - I'll go ahead and look into it for you and action accordingly. We do want to respect the players' privacy though, so I won't be able to share any action that we may take. If you ever come across players being negative, I'd mute them immediately and focus on your own gameplay.

We also have full visibility of pre-game and post-game chat logs, so if you ever come across players being negative in those spaces, I'd report them at the end of the game still - either in the client or directly to us as that's the best way to get them reviewed and penalized.

Notice it reads, "We also have full visibility of pre-game and post-game chat logs".

It's not safe. It's safer. There's no trigger system for pre/post game lobby, so if you weren't trolling or flamming in game, you'd need a lot of report in order for them to flag your account and have your pre/post game chat checked.

Naw, 1 report is enough to trigger the system to review the game.

Even if they were guilty in that game (including post game logs) , it may / may not punish someone. It is totally dependant on that player's behavioral history.

Whatever you say. I've told people to "kys" multiple times in pre and post chat lobby while saying nothing in game nor doing anything in game that is toxic. Keep believing that there are trigger words in pre/post game chat.

Yea.. but were you reported? Thru may have forgotten.

1 report = 9 reports. I believe the pre and post game chat logs have always been taken into consideration when issuing a chat related punishment. They were just added to the cards recently. Flaming people in pre/post game chat will get you in just as much trouble just as quickly as flaming people in game.

Both pre- and post-game chats has been scanned by IFS for some time now (over a year iirc). The only change is that the chat is now included on the reform card presented to punished users
