So I was thinking...

I've been playing league for ages like season 2 ages, and I've never been banned or warned of anything (except when my internet was being rude and booting me). I think I have something like 3500 normal games played and probably about 1000 ranked games played. How many times would I have to get reported to actually have anything done against me? I know that seems like an odd question but I kind of feel like the tribunal system is skewed to favor people with a lot of spare time to play league. I know in general that it's based on the number of games you are reported not the number of reports but if you were new and reported 15 times in 50 games as opposed to someone who was reported 150 in 500 games. I know for a fact I've been reported numerous times (mostly I'm gonna venture I was having a bad game). What would it really take to get me banned?

{quoted}What would it really take to get me banned?

To be banned for 14-days, it would probably take a handful of games of really serious abuse, a single mention of hate speech or derogatory language, a single encouragement for someone to self-harm. A punishment can be earned from a simple toxic streak -- the system largely cares about the ratio of games played to games reported, but it can look at both streaks and totals. Sure, you may have been reported in only 1% of 1000 games...but if that 1% is the last ten games, the system will notice and probably punish you with a restriction for it.

Also, the system can tell if a report is valid, or if a report is infrequent. Infrequent minor toxicity usually doesn't trigger punishments, as Riot does know people have off days. It just depends on what the severity and toxicity of your "off" behavior looks like.
