Our Community Is Hated

The title says everything, so many people are super rude and troll in this game... It's atrocious. What are we going to do about it other than ban and punish people?

I personally believe of lot of this hate for the community comes from players that blow one or two bad games out of proportion. I experience a significant amount more fun games with cool people than bad ones.

the community as a whole punishes and reports people who complain about trolls more so then the actual trolls themselves in fact i seen where the enemy team enjoys the trolling so much they report every1 but the troll and it resulted in one of them being chat restricted

the tribunal system doesnt work as intended and is highly abused

Totally agree with you. It's not safe to even complain or make any sort of comment in a game or you will be reported... All the while you are losing bot lane because your support went full AP brand, is farming your minions, and refuses to help you when the enemy engages on you. By the time your team looks at your score they go "wtf stop feeding, so bad." or "Why are you complaining about brand... you are terrible." It's so bass ackwards it's not even funny.

Honestly honor system is overused EVEN NOW, I've seen many players getting honored simply because they won the game, while they weren't actually teamwork or helpful, sometimes even rude. And that's under the circumstance which honors doesn't really give benefits. The most valuable honor right now, I'd say is honorable opponent. Anyway, I can image people intentionally making fake honors if it actually gives prize or any other benefits.

That being said, I like your attitude of thinking more of positive side than negative side.

Thank you. All I want is for people to be motivated to be positive rather than punished for being negative.

It's basic psychology, if you punish someone for a behavior, they will still act the same, but try to avoid getting caught. Only after several punishments will the person generally change their behavior and even then it is not genuine change and they may easily revert back to their old ways. However, if you reward someone for a behavior, they will continue to behave that way in order to receive the reward. Positive reinforcement is THE BEST way to change behavior, period.

Honestly, even if the honor system gets abused, I would rather players abuse the honor system and have more positive games because of it, than have things the way they are now.

people are super rude

Clearly you haven't been in many online gaming communities.

League of Legends is very friendly and quaint in comparison.
