Player told me to kill myself, what should I do?
I was playing a game with a summoner [redacted], and he told me to kill myself in game. I laughed it off and told him "your mom would miss me too much", then after game he added me as a friend and told me to kill myself along with calling me a "subhuman f*ck". Please reference Exhibit A.
p.s. I won't kill myself. Especially not because some troubled stranger online told me so. I just think Riot should rid itself of this player, would make the community a little better (needs a lot of work already).
Exhibit A
For all those saying Riot doesn't care since that person sent me that after I accepted a friend request, let me quote what support said. Whether they do something about it or not I don't really care since it is in their hands now.
I'm sorry to hear that [redacted] was harassing you in chat. Telling others to kill themselves is something we have zero tolerance for and is never acceptable in any situation. With that in mind. I do believe an investigation is warranted here. I will go ahead and look into them for you and will take action on their account based on my findings. Sadly, I won't be able to share any details with you about my investigation, or any actions taken on their account as we do need to respect each player's privacy. However, I do appreciate you bringing it to my attention and sending me that screenshot. In the future, I would highly recommend that you don't add strangers to your friend's list as chances are they are just trying to get a negative reaction out of you or send you spam or phishing links. In order to avoid potential harassment in PMs, I personally only accept friend requests from players if I had a positive interaction with them in game, or I know them IRL. If you have any other questions or have other information for me that I can use for my investigation please feel free to send them my way as I am here to help.
