honor increases, and chat bans

The goal of chat bans is to improve player behaviour The goal of honor level is to improve player behaviour.

However, the lockout of honor after a chatban, is counterproductive. Once you lift chat restriction, you should want the player to be even more motivated to improve. potentially to earn honors. redirect their enegy towards the positive.

HOwever, if you then block their ability to self motivate by building honor again.... you have then taken AWAY motivation for them to concentrate on improving. It is counter productive.

Seems reasonable.

My understanding is that the actual honor lock is very brief, though. Is that not the case?

Also, if your honor is locked.. there is no incentive to honor others.

Thats a whole nuther issue. It really shouldnt be necceesary to "open a support ticket" to see honor progression. The current honor display type in your profile sucks. it should be more of a progress bar or something.

I get and give honors every game and was honor 5 last season and im still stuck at level 2 checkpoint 3. The honor system just sucks overall

isn't your motivation at that time NOT to get punished again?

I can totally agree with that. But Riot wont change it, sadly.
