I say "in 2020" because I know at one point in time you couldn't, but thought maybe at some point they made it so you could. I got a chat restriction and have taken a permanent vow of silence in-game so just wondered if pre-game post-game matter, if I need to do vow of silence in those too lol.
Edit: I put reported but meant banned / chat restriction
Yes, the IFS logs pre- and post-game chat, and that is reflected in chat logs if you misbehave in those respective chats, too.
I can't remember exactly, but I know a few years back (2017? 2018?) it was stated that pre- and post-game chat are logged by the IFS, but not reflected in the reform card, and then sometime later that same year (around the middle of the year, IIRC) the IFS was updated to properly display pre- and post-game chat in the reform cards.
So, long and short of it is, yeah, you can get punished if you break the rules in pre-game or post-game lobbies.
Yes, it's been that way for years.

Only if the game starts, if you dodge you can say whatever you want without consequence cause it can't be reported.
Ok, thx. I knew they logged it and I even had times in the past couple of years where I saw it on the log, but never actually got in trouble for that specifically so...well as a programmer the first thought I had was: Did they add it to the log just for a placebo effect to scare people into thinking it matters, or are they actually including it in the analysis? Sounds pretty dumb though because it would be really easy to just include it, but I have seen Riot take a lot of coding shortcuts which led to buggy outcomes so ya never know with them.
