DO REPORTS REALLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE?

Rimram·May 9, 2016·1 votes·522 views

Can anyone really say whether reports make it to an actual person? i have had so many games where it was obvious on what to do and we could win easily as long as we did it, or its actually rather close and we just have to keep our own carry safe, but someone gives up and feeds and trolls... i mean punishing the trolls do help (although they are rarely REALLY banned) but what about yourself and the other 3 people who truly tried hard and ended up losing because of one person? yeah it feels good to know that one day he will be banned but what about the damage done?

it would be really helpful if a rioter could answer the question about whther reports really reach someone. thnx

Have you even seen this sub-board?

If you read the majority of threads in this sub-forum then you'd find out that they do in fact work. Just keep in mind though that a person isn't punished for just one game alone unless it's extremely bad (i.e. death threats, racist comments, etc.).

"yeah it feels good to know that one day he will be banned but what about the damage done?" they won't. I have had people being racist to me because of my name and beliefs but I haven't yet seen any "the player you reported for racism is banned" pop up yet. So called zero tolerance policy. They don't get banned for this and trolling is way less severe than this

The popup only appears if your report was the one that triggered a review of the person in question. It doesn't mean that they weren't punished, it just means that it wasn't your report alone that did it.

Why call it zero tolerance policy huh? Do you understand what this term means

Your attitude isn't helping your case. Prandine politely commented on your situation and isn't deserving of a response like yours. Why are you trying to alienated a person who's trying to work with you?

Also, zero tolerance means that the punishment will be severe, not that Riot won't review the case before punishing. If you're hoping to get a button that allows you to permanent ban other players yourself, then you're going to be disappointed.

Have patience and try to work through your frustration.
