I'm tired of having death threats directed to myself or other players ingame. I report it every time but I have yet to see a player getting punished for it. It's a criminal offence in real life so i feel a permaban is justified for this sort of behaviour.
For it to be a criminal offense, the threat must be 'specific' and 'immediate'.
They must be able to carry out the threat, and must direct it towards your person in a specific manner. They must say something like, "I got a gun, and I'm coming to your house right now that's on 1222 Mulberry lane!" (or you know that they know where you live).
If they say something like, "I really want to kill you right now!" or "I hope you die in a fire!"
Those are not 'immediate' threats; they are not saying they are going to kill you right now, nor did they specify some kind of time frame.
Obviously the law is flexible, so if you feel that a valid threat has been made and that your life is indeed in danger, then going to the authorities is the best thing you can do.
So why dont u report them to the police?
dude, i feel you. i hate being the one called out just because i try and fail. i feel like that should be a 2 week ban. stuff like that can actually make a person commit suicide. this makes the terrible and gives it such a bad reputation. i feel like we need more good players. the players that are toxic are the reason why this game sucks. we need change. i'll admit, i play alot of teemo, but just because you do, it doesn't make you toxic. what matters is your behaviour. please dont say stuff like ggez, because you know that the enemy team tried their best. please let there be a change.
P.S the honor system isn't really working.
Riot does ban for this. It is not always immediate, because it can take a little while for system to identify the behavior. Threats against other players are not tolerated though.
The reason you may not see the punishments going out is because typically only two players get alerted when a player is punished: the player themselves, and the last person to have reported them.
