Hi everyone,
I just wanted to thank the Riot team for doing whatever they did to increase the amount of reports that result in punishment. Just reading through this board and the uptick in popups I've received after reporting toxic players recently has been a nice change. I hope that after a few months of this we'll see the community improve and eliminate toxicity for good.

Shadowynn1 votesI hope this too but if you check op.gg, there are still vast amount of trolls/inters/ragers that go unpunished for months.
CrimsonDawn771 votesyeah, I reported someone for trolling me all game (literally kench spitting me into enemy towers), and checked every few weeks to see if they got banned. It took over two months before I saw 2 weeks of inactivity (presumably a ban, since they played every day almost). That's two more months for the person to troll others, not to mention that ban might not have even been from my report.
MadMad Sickness1 votesI think, the more we press ourselves to be the change we want to see then that gives other people the opportunity to see the change and respond. Riot already has a system in-place that gives players the opportunity to police their own community.
I think what is happening is more people are having faith that their reports matter. Anyway, I'm with you in that I also hope that it continues so that it can eventually leave a dent on toxicity.
Each person who plays this game needs to realize that they effectively create their experience because they are apart of the community.

You're a dick for saying this. Riot took away our power over the community when they took away the Tribunal; your reports are literally worthless. Robots review everything and punish players without human input; filing a report only means you'll get an alert to make you feel good if you get some frustrated player punished.
Dunrich1 votesI agree that it seems to have got a bit better, but I'm not really saying Riot deserve a pat on the back necessarily. This stuff is much easier to catch, and I just got out of a game where a guy called me the "n" word twice. The Jungler refused to take jungler role and said he was gonna feed...just a all around $h1t show. I think riot needs to give us more feedback as to what happened. They said they were going to, and I've reported over probably 50 people, and I've got back maybe like 4-5 reports saying somebody was punished. They still don't seem to realize how much money they're losing by allowing these toxic people to play. A lot of mature, or normal people stop playing because of this community.
KVbqbFsC8e1 votesNothing at all has changed, theres just more people playing Ranked to hit their goals at the end of the Season. Toxicity always increases as the Season is coming to an end.
RektPwndGG LULZ1 votesI guess one thing I'd like to see improved is the intentional feeding / losing on purpose detection. Maybe look at activity during fights/engagements, if a player that's not the JG is in the JG during fights, increase their score. If the player is standing near the fight but not actively damaging or fighting, increase the score. if they're just autoing and not using abilities, increase the score. I'm not sure if things like this are already taken into consideration, but if not they should be.
I'd also like to see some sort of requirement of having spent RP before a player can go to ranked. maybe $5-10 worth of RP purchased. Just so there's a credit card verified on the account. It would be a useful way to keep the smurf/troll accounts out of ranked or at least to a minimum. No gift RP counts either, require from a credit card, on the account, tied to a name.
themachamp1 votesit's not an uptick in toxic player removal. It's just an uptick in people being baited in by the trolls, int feeders, etc. Even riot admitted( in an earlier board post) that their system is trash at catching inting/passive afking/ stealing someone assn role....etc.
The toxicity has just been moved from verbal....to non verbal.

This in a nutshell. I've recently been given a 25 game chat restrict AND been called a shitty person by Riot support for a: Informing my team about a bot b: Calling out a player using intentional feeding tactics (gold resetting every death) and c: Calling someone an asshole for yelling 'Report <me>', but forgetting and quoting the word 'report' (the triggering offense, of course).
Effectively, Riot only cares about having a 'kid friendly' chat log. They've already got the 20-something market, and they're trying to get past the 'concerned parent' blockade at this point; more than likely, someone at Riot thought they could fill the void of Club Penguin for 'most oppressive censorship bot'.
