Reported someone for being racist in post game lobby

I am just very curious as to why this individual didn't receive a punishment after I reported him for racism. He clearly said the N word post game which has 0 tolerance on the rift. I did not get a notification saying that that player was punished like I normally would when a player is penalized. I do believe I made an accurate report as well. Idk why this player wasn't punished for saying the N word TWICE.

You don't always don't get a notification when someone is penalized and it isn't really instant when they do get penalized. Just know you did something good for the community by reporting it.

The guy got at least a 14-day ban, I can all but guarantee it.

From what I know, even if you don't get reported, using that word (or other racial slurs) will still get you banned.

The notification system is not to be taken as reliable for this usage as it is not there for the purpose of allowing you to monitor the status of other player's accounts.

He didn't spam, that's it.

Riot doesn't actually give a damn personally about reports, it's nothing but bots handling it, which is why so many trolls infest the game.

Probably either his first time doing that, so he has some leniency still, or it just hasnt gone through the system yet for whatever reason. I dont believe it when people say its zero tolerance so you will always get banned when someone reports it. I once called someone a %%% (gay slur) and ive never recieved any punishment... granted i may not have been reported I guess. But either way, if you have a history of good behavior, I dont think Riot throws the banhammer down on you for one instance, unless its super egregious. And i dont consider saying the N word twice in post game lobby super egregious, unless someone was like hey im black, and his response was say ngr twice, like hes calling him it.

check his account about a day after, if hes played since then send in a support ticket to force a manual review and they should get banned 100%, ive done this a lot
