Huge increase in bans - the idea behind it.

No wonder you didn't get it If you didn't read the whole post, like seriously I'm sorry if reading is troublesome for some of you guys but I'm not forcing you to read it, just if you are not planning to read everything don't answer as you know only a bit of the theory. The complains about long posts are just funny for me xD If reading scares you, don't do it, just don't get involved in discussion.

The increase in bans exists. Nowadays you get banned for "toxicity" actions like "useless jg" and "sell skin" for which you would never get banned for in past or during the tribunal era. Just ask Rito for statistics and lets see they actually started banning for nothing or they didn't.

Anyways there are 2 actions that solve the toxicity problem completely:

1. Remove chat which is obviously useless because pings are more than enough, high elo players prove this to be right as they don't use chat at all. No chat == no toxicity
2. Put all bad players (let's say people with honor 0) on "punishment island" which is a separate queue for toxic players. That way we separate toxic players from non toxic players and both are happy, because non toxic are not forced to use mute option anymore(which they never really use), and toxic player don't care because they got used to toxicity and words like "useless jg" don't really have much effect on them. How do I know this works? Because HotS are using this system and it proves to work just fine.

But those two solutions have a downside. No need to buy RP because those are old accounts with favorite champions and skins already bought. This would be the only reason why Rito is not using any of those two, which are widely spread across other games and work just fine fixing the issue completely. Just think. Why would Rito not go for one of those and instead go for this "recycling" system that pumps back toxic players into the system?

This is a true masterminds plan and this is no big surprise, after all they are a company or even corporation I should say, just like Disney, Google and CocaCola.

The game is designed to be addictive and I don't see people suddenly giving up on LoL because of one account banned. Like seriously have you ever seen someone going like "oh, I got a ban.... lets just give up on game that I've been playing addictevely for last 10 years everyday and instead go play some chess game".

You can't just expect a cigarette addict or a heroin addict to give up on their addiction just like that, because you took their cig pack/heroing gram from them.... they will just get another one and what most important here - pay for it.

Also the whole idea of banning for toxicity is just ridiculous as long as there is a chat. People are not born flamers, each one of us is a potential flamer once we lose control over our nerves. If you want to make toxicity gone from the game remove tool that allows people to be toxic or make all humans not play that game anymore, because as long as there are humans playing the video game, they will feel emotion and emotion will trigger them for going toxic. This is just the simple truth.

You can have 80% toxic people recycled and making new acc going toxic again. You can have potential 20% people quit the game. But you always can have those extra new 20% that were never toxic before but they just happen to be triggered by someone or the recycled toxic.

That's the truth. Noone is born toxic and noone is toxic without a reason, it's usually one guy that starts and then we have a chain reaction where a teammate gets toxic and then other two teammates are getting into discussion and they get toxic too and all of them are new spark for toxicity in their next games.

So now there is my question: Why not removing chat(tool of toxicity) if pings are enough or why not letting toxic players play with other toxic? Why do we have to force them to get a new account and being toxic again, but this time under different nick?

Hope that small bit of text didn't scare you off ;)

Well from what I can remember there used to be a tribunal in past and nowadays we have an automatic system... so yes, its a new system or maybe I'm missing something here and honor system + automatic ban used to be in this game since always.

Also I never said that the system bans you for saying "useless jg" once. My point is that it's ridiculous that it takes something like that into consideration.

It's funny how all of you are butthurted because I dared to say that the system bans for nothing (because "useless jg" is not toxic), but at the same time all of you are missing the point of the whole text.

Why is rito banning for nothing (yes, I still think that counting "sell skin" into toxic behavior should never take place) instead of just removing chat, thus removing toxicity from the game. Pings are more than enough for communication and you need 0 chat for successful game, high elo proves that where there is 0 chat used. Or why is Rito not letting toxic people play with other toxic people only the way its done in other games?

Why instead Rito is choosing to pump in old toxic players into the system and let them play but with new accounts? Two propositions seem to be a better option, they were also tested by other developers and they prove to be a good systems, so why is Rito going for something that doesn't solve the problem?

"Ahhh yeah.... you don't want to spent next 3 years on grinding the blue essence to get your champs? Just buy those sweet RP." That's my bet. I think this is the reason why Rito is not going for the logical solution. After all money seems to be a logical answer for that, they always are.

Let's be honest. The MOBA age is gone and the game is not that fresh anymore. Just see prestigious thingie going on, chromas, weakening orange essence, and this now. I think they try to squeeze most from the game before they will switch for something else.

If my theory is right they will slow down with new champions and let the game slowly fall (like HotS is doing now) and regularly move their focus on the new game.

I've never understood this lunacy. It confuses the living fuck out of me.

So many posts about how Riot's system is shit, and they "only ban people for words," and "never ban trolls or inters," and the "game is dying" and yet they keep pushing that button to queue up for more games. Seriously, some people are in an abusive relationship with this video game and they need to walk away.

Man if you didn't read the thing why are you even answering? Based on your guess what the post is about?

Read is again please. To sum up - the post is a theory on why is Riot banning for nothing instead of doing what other developers do (removing chat or letting toxic play with other toxic). The post is about why Riot pumping toxic players again into system is irrational and the suggestion is that they want money from them.

What would YOU do if Rito would ban you? Would you quit? Or maybe just make a new account?

Why would someone who is addicted to lol quit is just because he got banned? Wouldn't he just make a new account? And if so, what was the point of banning him in first place if he plays the game anyways?

Your example with theater is wrong, this is a better example:

You are a drug addict and you buy your stuff from some fellaz, but one day after you bought the stuff they beat you up and take it away from you. So what you do as the addict? Go up again to them and pay again for the stuff.

That way the dealers forced you to pay twice.

Exactly man! You are a living proof that the theory is right.

You got banned.... but what was the point in first place if you just made a new account? That doesn't make sense.... unless you are tired of grinding blue essence and go for buying RP.

And how to make lots of people buy RP that way? Make lots of people banned. And how to do that? Ban for nothing.

Beautiful in its simplicity.

Why aren't they going for chat removal or separate queue for toxic if they care so much? Why they are allowing toxic players to do the same thing but with new nickname, if it's not for money?

I'm playing since 2012 and I disagree.

It's interesting cuz this forum was not existing 7 years ago. Rito was using different forum back then. It's also interesting cuz I don't remember such number of complains during the tribunal era and old honor system and I'm on lol forums checking out stuff about once a week.
