Deleted post before it was even read about a pregame reporting system.

Playing ranked is sometimes quite difficult because some do not take it as serious as others, and that is okay. The problem however is when people come into a lobby and make known that they are going to just joke around during the game. It compels players to dodge the queue because you cant tell if that player will take it serious or if you should just take the leaver buster punishment. Its completely frustrating for those of us serious about playing and ranking up, and then you get someone like the example below:

I then posted in game chat that i just copied and pasted directly from the PREGAME lobby. With phrases such as

TIME TO FEED LIKE THERE IS NO TOMORROW IMA AFK AT BASE

The response from riot

"Hey Eruion, We understand that you want to get word out about this player and their in-game behaviors but this is not the correct avenue to get attention on them. Please continue to use our in-game reporting system to put these players through our behavioral systems."

If they had read what I posted they would have understood that I WAS ASKING FOR A WAY TO REPORT THIS PLAYER!

I understand that I should have not just copped and pasted the players name out there for everyone to see, but I was just using that chat as an example. The problem I'm having with this situation is that I was told to use the in game report system FOR A SITUATION THAT YOU CANNOT REPORT IN GAME.

If you must report them in a situation where you weren't able to use post-game reporting, use a Support Ticket under the category I have a question > Game & Features > General Questions.

The mods didn't need to read the content because simply naming a player breaks the boards Universal Rules for "Name & Shame" and wouldn't be allowed to stay up. Censor the names if you have to post the chat, and that way it won't be removed and we can discuss your options.

Yes I understand that I broke the rules on that part, and its ok that they deleted my post. At the time I posted it I was not thinking about the rule i broke and I fully understand and agree with them deleting my post. The problem is with the reply they sent. "Please continue to use our in-game reporting system to put these players through our behavioral systems" There is no in game way to report such a player. Thank you for informing me about the support ticket method though. The thing that makes me mad though is that in a situation like this where the players in pregame are trolling, you are forced to dodge because you know that they will hurt the team with intent. so you just haft to take your punishment for helping out the team and be punished as a result of someone else.

they will never try to fix an issue like this.

morale of the story is trolling is ok "negative" chat is not ok.

so just bank on being stuck with trolls in your ranked game, but hey they might/def will ban some people for using chat though.

i know i was a bit off topic here. i think you had a great post but i dont see anything being done about it.
