Meanwhile the red post is the literal textbook definition of a name and shame thread.

they did it because if they didn't give somewhat of a reason why Tyler1 was banned, it would just be post after post after annoying post about Tyler1....but sadly it's still happening. He deserved the ban and Riot did things correctly. Regardless if he was SLOWLY reforming, he wasn't reforming fast enough and Riot had to finally put their foot down after 18+ accounts of his being permabanned

I agree. He needed to reform a bit faster and I am all for him reforming and becoming productive in the community.

I just hate how Riot won't look at their golden children (Pro LCS players) and punish them if they are being toxic or trollish too. If Riot wants to be fair in their justice then they need to address EVERYONE not just 1 or 2 extremely toxic players, but all of them. Especially players that have streams that just go AFK while still streaming for no reasons at all. Negative attitude, Verbal Abuse, AFK, Intentional Feeding, Hate Speech, Cheating, and Offensive or inappropriate summoner name: those are the report options at the end of a game for a single player. Riot needs to look at ALL of these for EVERYONE (golden children included and well as popular ones). End of story.

Tip for Riot: You want more $$$, then make the community fair and just. The LoL peeps will love you more for it.

Are they actually being toxic in chat, or on their stream? There is a HUGE difference when someone is breaking the rules that Riot has place in their game, and how someone is acting in their own stream. Also note that they could be playing in a full team. If they are "trolling" with their teammates i highly doubt theyll report their own friend. it could have been just the same with Tyler HAD he played with people he knew, but he didnt. he acted like a troll/toxic towards people he didnt know, which isnt right.

Except they have, and they did. One LCS player was banned for toxic behavior a few years ago DURING the tournament, when his team made it to the semifinals.

Here's an idea: they give him a private e-mail like they would do for anyone else, and then Tyler1 can choose whether or not to show it on his stream, like anyone else. socrates is a hypocrite.

In this case, it falls squarely into a case of Tyler being a public figure.

Tyler by no means, hid his behavior. By not only streaming his actions, but also, taking pride in the fact that he had over a dozen and a half accounts banned, and the title of "Most Toxic Player", let alone monetizing his streaming off of those things, he has voluntarily opened himself up to public opinion regarding his actions. Especially, when it comes to displaying behavior, which Riot does not approve of in their game.
