I had a little bit without playing ,so i started playing more and more ,i wanted to reach that lvl 5 honor , im still lvl 4 , i have been behaving great just to get honors , but when i met some of my friends that are all flamers, the told me they are all lvl 5 ,and they behave terribly ,the thing is unless u get banned ,which it happens rarely unless u flame hard ,(like cancer and shit) , u will still reach lvl 5 ,and get those keys, which btw u probaly dont even get more keys ,u just get keys with honor instead of getting them after win ,everyone can go lvl 5 honor ,everyone can reach it , its not even a challenge anymore ,it doesnt even motivate people to behave properly ,i wish at least the old system was back ,i liked watching and collecting number of honors ,now it just shows a random llv that everyone gets

While the honor and ranked systems do suck hard, it's not hard to get an account penalty. I'm constantly on level 1. All the game systems are shit; whether it's honor, match making, reporting, rank, it's all garbo. There are SO many crybaby carebears and they always travel in packs so if you hurt their feelings they mass report you for easy system feedback abuse.

There is both a passive and active component to earning honor. Passive in that it does rise even if you weren't voted as honorable; active in that it rises a bit quicker if you were.
I'm guessing your 'friends' mostly play with each other? If they flame and don't report each other, there would be no reason the system would ban them and, thus, drop from their current honor level.
Not everyone votes honor the same. Yes, there are people who always chose the hypercarry, regardless of what they said in chat. Others pick the support or use some other type of personal criteria for voting. It's entirely possible for a player to have been both honored and reported in the same game.

As for your friends, did you report their behavior or let it slide? If it's the latter, than you're helping them get rewarded for dishonorable behavior.

Seriously stop, nobody liked the old system, it was absolutely useless garbage, anyways you said yourself that you "had a bit without playing" maybe your friends are only toxic in the games when you're with them?

The fact of the matter is that the honor system has improved x10 it also resets every season so that once the season ends you have to work for it again

The other system was a useless pile of "honors" that no one used
