the toxic side of the community of league of legends

most of details are on this video , click on "show more" at the video description to see the time when tristana was spamming me with pings or when i remembered to just show all the chat log from the start .

-removed by moderation-

i was trying to play a casual game and got matched as adc .

top laner asked me for my role, i said it was okay and gave him the adc trading for top despite not being very good on it i was still sure i could have some fun trying something , then the supporter banned my champion for no reason , i asked why and got no answer .

"Ofc, a troll" i thought , but it got worse later , that was just champion selection, right after i got in game they started to /all chat the enemy team asking to x9 report me , for "flaming and being toxic "

The enemy team played along saying something negative that i didnt mind to read , i knew it was gonna be a bad game because prob. it was a premade 4 of trolls , but i was still ok with this, until tristana [the adc i traded because he asked me ] started to say i was really bad as an adc, yes, she looked on my op.gg just to simply say it to everybody and call me an idiot , and x4 report me , that is if they didnt manage to x9 report me by convincing the enemy team to do so .

as i started to get a bit worried about getting x9 reported for literally doing nothing wrong, i started to stream mid-game so that people could see what was really happening in my game and how horrible these people were to me .

this is a ridiculous amount of toxity for absolutely no reason , i hope i dont get any kind of punishment for this kind of game because the game itself was already a really bad gaming experience with tristana pinging my lane all the way from her botlane for no reason and all other teammates being toxic to me .

i wonder what happens to the players who get trolled like this , does league of legends punishes the one who got x9 reported or is it the ones who were premade x4 and are trolling a player ?

I had to remove the videos, as we don't allow naming and shaming on the forums.

But yea, as Imperial Pandaa pointed out, if you don't do anything wrong, reports aren't going to do anything to you. If you reported the player in the post-game, that should suffice to have their behavior looked into, otherwise, you can submit a Support ticket.

thank you very much :x im sorry i posted the video with names i didnt know what to do x3 but i feel better now knowing i wont be banned or anything still , that was some real bad gaming experience , i will try the support ticket

btw , it looks like they were not charged a penalty or anything because i was not notified, im pretty sure all that they just did to me was a lot of toxity and i even traded top when he asked me , it was very frustrating and i want them to get some kind of penalty for it too :/ its unfair

You do not get notified of every penalty issued based on your reports. Only some.

The long and short is number of reports in a single game don't matter. 1 report will flag the game to be reviewed by the IFS. If you didn't say anything snarky or flame them back in retaliation, you are fine.

thank you, btw all the chat log can be seen at 7:15 on the video , it took me a while to remember what i should do to record what happened and that was just before i muted everyone , then tristana started spamming pings on me :/

There's not really any need to record. Riot already saves all game data, including things that aren't seen on recordings. So long as you report them after the game, their actions will be reviewed.

having a personal recording is useful for when something particularly egregious happens and rito refuses to do anything. at least you can then post the recording around the internet and possibly get the public on your side. sort of like recording the police.

not on these boards though. can't post videos here, otherwise people will be able to point to the troll-y, soft inting behavior that goes unpunished and rito might be under pressure to actually do something.

No, it's not useful for those things. Riot does not punish people just because "the public" complained enough. They punish players who violate the rules. Period.

Just like how screaming about your neighbor being rude isn't going to get them arrested.
