Start banning players trolling in ranked because of preseason

It's absolutely ridiculous Riot still hasn't learned that after announcing ranks and rewards have closed, people go crazy trolling in ranked. Every game there's a minimum of 3 people playing new things and griefing, not trying, sometimes even going out of their way to ensure the game is lost. They know they're safe because the instant feedback system is extremely unreliable and easy to get around. As long as they don't afk or flame, they can't get punished.

This is complete garbage, there is no incentive at all to play competitively when the numbers of trolls keeps growing every day. For people like me that's all I want to play. The trolly normal games and ARAM stupidity aren't fun to me. Organized games where people try, are - win or lose. People who queue for ranked and screw around because they don't give a single fuck about winning should get ranked banned until the start of next season plus 2 weeks.

For now I'm done with league, it's literally a waste of the little free time I have right now, there is no improving or fun to be had in ranked right now.

Side note for the kids who complain on reddit about NA being behind the rest of the LoL world: this kind of degenerate behavior is why our teams suck compared to Korea/EU. So much of NA's playerbase is privileged sheltered middle+ class kids living with their parents that use league as an outlet to vent their frustrations as kissless virgins with nothing better to do. I see it in my classes, the niche of pale kids that always talk about it; that's also how my ex-friends who introduced me to the game were, and it's obvious looking at the NA LCS crowds.

I know, I was trying to climb the other day and I got a 1/27 Zed and 1/14 Lux while I was 11/2 trying to carry. I posted a post about this and Riot removed it telling me to use the report system in-game. I did and I waited 2 hours for a notification to tell me they were banned. Nothing. I posted the thread and got done with it, telling Riot about their report system. They removed it telling me to use the in-game report system instead of reporting players on forums. LOL, I explained that I used the report system and got nothing. Maybe use your employees Riot, instead of using bots^^^^^^^^. BTW it was basically a 3v7 but we held up til around 45 minutes. Too bad didn't get Silver 1. Thanks Riot!

Its not that they haven't learned. Its very hard for Riot to give accurate, sustainable punishments, without dwindling the amount in the community. Trolls, make it very difficult for all players to have a good time, yes. However, some people have off games, some have just a bad day. Riot doesn't want to punish people who are just in a bad mood, they want to punish people who are constantly creating a bad community. We all know there are trolls, but we can't do much about that. I know we all have trouble dealing with these jerks, but its not Riot's job to fix people. Just report the person, hope you don't play with them again, and play your next game. Play other modes: Play BOT Games. Play unranked. Play on the PBE. Deal with the trolls on ranked. Play with a bunch of your friends. I know it would be amazing to play a day of league with no trolls.

Unfortunately, there are trolls. It's not Riot's job to fix people. Find a way to deal with them, or get away from them.
