Is banning unfair?
People can be perma banned on their 4th offense. Of course, 4 is a lot but consider this from a riot employee about what can be considered an offense.
"Talking about toxicity, I would like to clarify what it stands for, because it's not based only on swearing or curse words or on the zero tolerance policy that we have which includes: racism, homophobia. wishing harm on others, etc, it also means: early GG's, spamming, whining, sarcastic congratulations or sarcasm in general, calling for reports and harassment.
So basically, any distractions with a negative attitude, both your teammates and enemies, will be punished. Rather than flaming, focus on aiding. Rather than complaining, focus on helping others and improve your gameplay in case you cannot reach your teammates. Just focus on the game."
Sarcasm is toxic, yet they say competetive bsing is fine in loading screens. Surely, that's inconsistency and mixed messages.
Also, why is this stuff not commonly accessible in game, how would I know that asking for multiple reports is wrong. It's done so often and when someone says they'll rape my dead mother, shouldn't I want them reported?
Seems to me they're a bit too strict. You don't know how many warnings you have and then BAM! perma banned when someone said they was gonna rape your mother ingame and you get angry.
It's as if we're too sensitive to be humans. Why can't people be %%%%s sometimes. What if I've had an awful day and the comment got to me, £1000s lost cause of shitty rules.
Overall Riot, I think you're unfair.
