Obvious cheating in Twisted Treeline - Why I'm frustrated with Riot in a nutshell.

I dunno how people can not be annoyed at this,

I decide to play some Twisted Treeline and on the enemy team are 3 toxic carries (players that play Katarina, Jax and LeeSin). I was playing Zilean. Our Morgana kills Katarina in a brilliant opening play and teamwork from me and her, Our Jax was AFK for the first 5 minutes of the game and the enemy Katarina starts saying;

"OMG, You so luck" or whatever wierd variation of spelling.

I say "Thats funny, comming from Katarina, a champ built around the idea of luck and cheese"

and she says "OMG, muted and reported" - Nothing unusual there then.

Anyway, we start to win through teamwork and then 10 minutes before the games end my entire connection to the league server goes crazy, my ping jumps up into thousands (which never happens, Virgin Broadband UK - 200mb here) and I get "awaiting for connection".

After having to restart the client, I log back in to find the enemy team has a victory and I get a report notification for Offensive Language and a report for being AFK.

Why are these people allowed to just walk away, to be honest, I was going to report the Katarina for her rude attitude anyway but still, I don't get the option to report them but they can report me.

It is my personal belief that they were hacking because I always keep a regular ping to the LoL servers and there is no other way to explain the sudden drop in connection. So why am I getting bullied from Riot with warnings when I haven't done a single thing wrong.

That's really hard to claim without proof. Ping can spike for a number of reasons, doesn't mean that they were hacking.

So why am I getting bullied from Riot with warnings when I haven't done a single thing wrong.

When you get a popup warning, that just means that your account has been reported more times than usual. If you truly did nothing wrong, you don't have anything to worry about. The players who falsely reported you will have the weight of their reports lessened. It will get better over time.

I do feel like there's a new drophack out there.

I was playing a Yi jungle game not that long ago. Ping had been stable for a few hours of playing. I set up a teleport gank bot lane that wound up securing four kills and a dragon for our team. Shortly after the dragon was announced, my ping jumped past 2k and I couldn't reconnect for 15 minutes. Nothing about my internet changed during that time period, only my ability to connect to the game.
