Seriously, how many games do you have to ruin before you're actually punished?
Edit: I'm literally bumping my support ticket every time this person plays a game and AFKs in it. Have already done it about 4 times.
Edit2: A month later and they're still going afk in games lmfao. What a great company this is!
Played with some fella a little bit ago. He ran into the enemy jg and died, so he said "I'm done" and went and sat afk in bushes the rest of the match. So I report said player. I also report said player via support ticket so that I had his name and could check back in with him. What a surprise, he is STILL playing ranked games and STILL trolling in them.
My question is how many games does it take trolling to get punished? Because people say they magically punish trolls "eventually". But I'm failing to see it. This is bullshit. People like this are literally the reason this game is toxic. It's so obvious to see. This guy gets in a game and trolls it, and someone most likely "flames" him for it. I know someone did in our game. This troll then reports the player and the player that "flamed" gets punished. This player then goes into his next game and does the same exact fucking thing. Gets someone else punished. Goes into his next game, gets someone else punished. So it looks like there are a lot of "toxic" players when in reality it is literally 1 cancerous player spreading the toxicity. But, here's the kicker, the fucking cancer isn't the one to get punished! Nope, instead they just want to ban all the "flamers". And then the community fucking defends it. "Oh they just had a bad game" and "being bad isn't punishable".
There is a clear difference between having a bad game and trolling to anyone with an IQ above 50. But people just want to social justice warrior it and grab their pitch forks for all the "flamers" while ignoring the actual fucking problem. I've literally had more games with these types of players than I have had without them. I can go through my games and point out these people. And no, not players that had bad games. Not players that "lost lane". I'm not talking about players that pick an off-meta pick like Twitch jg. Because even though Twitch jg is literally useless when we already selected a squishy top and support, and even though he didn't play, he still fucking tried. No, I'm not talking about those players. I'm talking about the trolls. Players that legitimately say they just picked GP support because they got autofilled, and literally leave bot lane at 3 mins to go "roam" top. That's just fucking sad. But then I get a fucking 27 minute dodge penalty for leaving a queue that has a player that outright says, "I'm tilted so I'm trolling" and locks in fucking raka jg. And this community defends him. "Well hurr Raka jg is just off meta durr." The community bitches about "toxicity" but then they will literally defend the causes of it. Until you actually choose to address the causes of toxicity, you won't fix it. Lyte's bullshit over the past 4 years should have made that fairly obvious. It didn't work. It's not working. It's not going to work. There's always going to be the normally neutral players that just get a straw that breaks the camels back and causes them to "flame". But instead of banning the one person causing many neutral players to go toxic, the community will attack the "flamer".
Listen, I'm not excusing people flaming. Those 12 year olds that start raging at first blood and shit need to be banned. Obviously. But, in my experience, those players are exceptionally rare. The vast majority of "toxicity" I see is from someone that is pissed that their time is being wasted by some troll. And, to an extent, that is also inexcuseable. Not arguing that it shouldn't be. But, what I'm saying is that even though it's inexcusable, it's going to happen as long as you don't address the cause of the problem. Yes, I'm salty as fuck because I'm tired of losing games for the sole reason that I got unlucky and got these fucks on my team.

Here is one of the MANY people I've reported that do this shit. I have yet to see 1 person I've reported punished for it. But he will "eventually get punished because they need enough evidence" (as if one game isn't enough evidence?). So the question:
Tl;dr: how many games do you have to troll before you should be punished?
