Blatant Racism [Picture Evidence]

o Recovery o·Dec 27, 2016·1 votes·892 views

Most of us play league for fun.....I'm used to trash talking.....I'm used to some hate but this is getting a little disgusting. Their whole group was like this, too, but it was passable....considering how toxic the League Community is....then there's this Blitzcrank and Trynd. It was so very hard to NOT post their whole names.

Like I'm all for a little fun shit-talking. There's good ways to do it where everyone comes away friends, the kind that makes games enjoyable and you form a solid friendly rivalry, and then there's the talk most respectable people completely avoid because they're.....you know...respectable people.

The sad part of all of this is that even if Riot actually pays attention to the reports we submitted on these accounts, if what they're saying is true and they're smurfs.....they basically get away scott-free. So what if some throw-away smurfs get banned? "We're just gonna make more...use the other ones we have....use our mains even..."

They're trolls. Mute and report them. Letting that shit sink in is what they want, and you can do yourself a favor by not acknowledging it. You'll enjoy the game a lot more that way.

Reports don't work. May as well just open a ticket with Riot support.

You're banned, presumably due to reports.

RcGjWO640wDec 27, 20161 votes

Pesumably because only Bronze players' reports actually do anything and if you're silver or higher, you may as well not bother trying.

Jo0oDec 27, 20161 votes

Well, that's some ironclad logic. I stand corrected.

RcGjWO640wDec 27, 20161 votes

It sure is. Never once have seen the report system work. And all Bronzies do is report people for feeding.

Yep, reports don't work at all....

They don't work unless it's literally 1v9. you either have to flood the system or people will never be caught.

RandomoniumDec 27, 20161 votes

You really have no idea how the system works do you? Number of reports DOES NOT MATTER. That's why asking for reports is pointless. A single report flags the game for review.

No it doesn't. Lol? Are you sure you're playing the same game, because that's definitely not how it works.

RandomoniumDec 27, 20161 votes

I'm playing the same game, you're just ignorant on how the system works. I'll let Deep Terror Nami answer any questions you have since she's the resident expert and has all the awesome Rioter quotes ready to go.

No game is actually "reviewed" by anyone. It's basically just counts hit many times a players said, "Fuck" and bans them based on that.

He doesn't mean manual review. The Instant Feedback System does it, and he is right that multiple reports don't really help; all reports do is flag the match for review.

It also does not simply "count how many times" a player said a keyword/phrase;

[{quoted}](name=Riot Tantram,realm=NA,application-id=ZGEFLEUQ,discussion-id=MIBGEN1J,comment-id=0005,timestamp=2016-11-04T18:27:06.672+0000)

This is not how the system works. It is not a keyword based system. It also isn't that black and white. It is a machine learning system that learns from the community what is acceptable and what is unacceptable. It doesn't just say, 'they said a word on a list, they get punished.'

Oh, even better. It's a "machine learning" system who's learned everything that it knows from report trolls. Nice. Isn't this exactly what happened when Microsoft released their AI you could tweet too and people managed to get it to tweet an anti-Semitic post?

You don't have to be a rocket scientist to understand just how easily a system like that can be broken.

Some people say provocative things - the worst thing you can do is give them any kind of attention at all.

Ignore them or /mute. There is a filter that picks up stuff like that if they get reported, hence why they're on smurfs - their mains were banned, and they're salty about it so they go to low level games and do this.

Nothing new, just report and move on.

Honestly, people BM all the time. You think this is crazy? People say worse stuff like this on the public transport (I take the NYC subway to work) and even on the streets. Sticks and stones . . . if they aren't legit trolling your game by griefing / feeding / afking etc. dont make a big deal out of it. There is a "mute" button for a reason.

I dont think it's 'crazy', I come from NY and I'm fully aware of things people say in public. I'm also aware Riot should not be permitting this kind of behavior and letting it slide, no questions asked is to allow the community to be continue to be toxic. I make use of the mute button far too often, and I report offenses reportable, but I believe Riot should be making an actual effort into stopping this kind of behavior, since that is the goal of a system they have in place. If they dont care they should remove it.
