Unsportsmanlike players

Why doesn't unsportsmanlike players get punished? They are breaking the Summoners Code with all their trashtalking against other players...

Just had a game where the enemy Varus and Lee Sin spammed ''EZ Game'' all game long and how bad me and my team was and then they tell everyone to report me for ''being trash'' at the game...

I reported them both but i honestly doubt that they will ever get punished since the system is automatic and doesn't care when someone spams EZ or call other players trash, they will probably continue to behave like this and ruin the game for others!

Riot Games please bring back the Tribunal for christ sake, your report and punishment system is terrible.

The system cares about spamming "ez" and calling players trash. It just doesn't necessarily hit them immediately, as they could normally behave fine, or only be 50% of the way to a punishment.

Isn't this kind of system easily abused? I mean the player could be like this for 1 day and then wait a few weeks and do the same thing again and not get punished, or am i wrong?

Good behavior CAN restore your account standing, definitely. But, frankly, people do have bad days. While the player who spams EZ for a game and calls a teammate trash once every few weeks is frustrating for that game, it's far better than the one who does it every other game.

In instances like your example here they could avoid punishment, certainly. But it's a factor of frequency AND severity, so if they're REALLY toxic every one in a while they'll still get hit. It's very minor toxicity that's shown fairly rarely that gets by, and that's largely intentional, as we all get frustrated from time to time and Riot knows that.

Lol that's like the only shit that actually does get punished. You should be more concerned with the trolls and shit. Trash talkers are easily muted and detected and punished all the damn time.
