Stop punishing language for retaliating against feeding, AFK TRolls

DeviantJester·12/8/2016, 2:33:11 AM·3 votes·1,307 views

Basically, a poll for the community to express to Riot their desire to punish or not punish players who react to the hours spent wasting their hard earned money and time trying to rank up only to get trolled by feeders and AFkr's. Which we all know usually occurs as soon as you hit your series. Maybe the voice of the community will be loud and proud against good players being banned or punished for a words that a system has a filter in place for....

I kind of hope this thread actually gets a lot of votes to see the majority consensus.

What does flaming do against trolls and afkers?

Whats the point of being toxic to someone trolling, like seriously, what do you plan on solving by doing this? Just finish the game, report, and start another.

The amount of complaining in this community is worse than that of the trollers.

Just curious, but what does yelling at the feeders/trolls actually do? Do they stop what they're doing?

Biased poll is biased. I mean, it's kinda funny, because the exact origin of the problem is people not being able to see the difference between "language", "expressing their reaction" and flaming others. Neither "expressing your reaction" nor "language" are inhernetly bannable (with the exception of slurs). Harassing others is bannable.

Either way, the whole reason Riot is so strict against retaliation is because the majority actually agrees with it. This has been evident since the player-driven Tribunal and was afaik confirmed in randomized polling by Riot, as neither Tribunal users nor Forum goers are really capable of accurately representing the playerbase as a whole. I mean, sure it's sensible to go with a forum poll to judge whether or not people would now vote differently. But if you make that poll as biased as this one you are turning what is already a not very representative poll into a completely irrelevant one.

laner goes 0-1-0, me : "s'okay...you can recover..." 0-2-0 : "place some wards maybe? don't go all in if you're low hp?"
0-3-0 : "omg, take the bacon out of your pocket...you're attracting the ganks" 0-4-0 : "BBQ SAUCE IS NOT A BUFF & IT ATTRACTS JUNGLERS!" 0-5-0 : "....you're just out to **ck our promos and yours too, aren't ya?"

Reporting the trolls...maybe it helps, but...

Actually I'm doubtful it helps at all.

I'm almost certain the trolls are trying to create river of tears by Xmas.

what's the point of a chat filter if you are going to censor players regardless?
