Why did Riot not let me know about people getting punished? Are they actually doing anything for me?

In the past I've reported people and even sent in tickets about games with feeders with actual video evidence as well, right. But the problem here is that I don't feel like Riot are actually doing anything most times with me anyway, I feel like the player is just getting away with their behaviour. I've seen people get notifications before when their report works, but everytime I report someone, I never get any notification, NOTHING. I mean, it's been months on some of my previous reports, so it can't be the time window. Like It just really disapoints me that people get away with feeding and don't get punished. (Properly because their report system is based on quantity, not quality.)

The notification only happens if they get autobanned right after your report. Rest assured, people get banned for being jerks. Not for being bad players, though.

Am assuming the "autoban" notification typically happens right after the game right? But since the game has been and gone now, does that mean the "autoban" notification wont happen now and I will never know what truely happens to that player?

Yeah, basically. You can look them up on lolking or whatever if you remember their names, but honestly.. it's not really worth it, just report and move on.

It can take a few minutes, but if it doesn't happen in a few minutes then you never be notified about that player being punished.

Honestly, the notification should be pretty rare. Very few players get bans, and you've got to be in the last game that player played before being banned.

It means your report still went through, and will count against them when they accumulate enough reports to trigger a punishment, but that particular game was not the last straw.

Also, if you send in a ticket with evidence, they're not allowed to tell you about any actions they take against the player as a result of your ticket.

I think you have a misunderstanding of the system that tells you the people who got punished when you report them. That is not meant to give you feedback on every report. It is just a periodic reminder that it does work. On top of that they only can popup in very specific scenarios where you are the final report that led to their punishment when punishments are generally based on more than 1 game. It sounds like a lot of the reports you are talking about are for trolling such as intentional feeding which often require manual reviews. Since the feedback messages are part of the instant feedback system you will never get an alert about a punishment that was the result of said manual review.

Look around this section of the boards, people are punished for bad behavior all the time. You just won't know the overwhelming majority of the time.

You are not special. You're not a beautiful and unique snowflake. You're the same decaying organic matter as everything else. We're all part of the same compost heap.

Dude it's not that I think am special, I just expected some form of consalation with the 7 reports I've put in so far that's all, I even sent in video evidence but I don't think they watched it.

When u say "feeders" do u mean someone running to turret and just letting it kill him, or someone going 0:10 in lane against better player? Feeding is not against rules.

ÈsdeathAug 6, 20161 votes

No like running into lane saying stuff like "fuck this" "silver elo" etc and dying.

There's a picture as well of one of his intentional deaths, got back to lane and just ran in. :/
