Enraged

It's great being trapped in a 30 minute long game while being pelted by toxic teammates and enemies both on chat and in discord. It's fun being targeted and flamed. I left a game for the first time today and it was the most freeing feeling i've ever felt. It really shouldn't be. A league game shouldn't become a prison.

I know that when I log in next some stupid punishment awaits because I, for once and for the first time, got fed up and decided to free myself. The best part is that I know when I report a player nothing happens. I don't even know why I waste my time.

So yeah that's all I wanted to say. I don't care if you flame me in the comments below. I'm used to it by now. This community sucks.

Humanity sucks in general. Get used to it. Good people are very few and far between now. But oh boy they would sure try to tell you otherwise!

Well, I sort of share your views on the community at large (I've dealt with my fair share of toxic players on either side), and I'm sorry that you feel like the match(es) are more imprisonment than game. I'm also sorry that you had to deal with such a barrage of toxicity from all angles, too.

If it's any consolation, I imagine that your punishment will be a fairly light one. If you don't have a track record of leaving games (you mention this being your first time doing so, so I can only assume that's the case), you don't get any huge penalties off the bat. Probably a warning and a 20~minute LeaverBuster timer or something of the sort, but, outside that, you should be fine.

As for reporting a player and nothing happening - you don't really have any proof of that. Sure, maybe it just so happens that who you report doesn't get punished, but that's likely because they either had a bad game or made one, non-habitual slip-up. It happens, and the IFS is generally accommodating of that.

But, to say "nothing happens" is a little narrow-minded and pessimistic. Players who do flame, even if they don't immediately get sacked with a punishment, their accounts get flagged for further notice. Their toxicity can add up to a punishment if they have a habit of it, and there are even some cases where players immediately get a chat restriction because of a more-toxic-than-average match on their part.

I hope most of what I said helps you feel a little better, and maybe changes your perspective on the punishment system a little. And, once again, I lament your recent poor experience. Have a good day/night, Cycera.

Mute, drop discord, premade. Problem solved.
