I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
According to Riot Games, asking players to report a toxic player is a form of bullying punishable by a ban so in other words if you ask for the other team to help report a player threatening your mother, you're actually just as bad and bullying someone.

Further, their alternative to asking for an x9 is:

quote:

Take five minutes to add someone and talk to them after game. Perhaps do some customs to help them learn a champion, or how to gank or how to use vision.

It really seems like people making decisions at Riot sometimes never even play their own game. Unless they're playing on their Riot accounts in which case 9 times out of 10 a toxic player will probably suck up if a Rioter gave them that kind of attention.

i just quietly report them and i've gotten two punishment popups in as many days so i guess the system works, occasionally?

this isn't saying that riot's psychology around their punishment system isn't totally hosed but i'm mostly just happy to see that maybe something is happening about it

In all fairness, I'm pretty sure rito is talking about people who try to brute force reports on someone they dont like for some silly reason. Similar to assholes who trade reports with the enemy team.

in a game last week i was doing wolves bc the bot lane wasnt safe to farm, and our master yi got mad at me for doing wolves, so to get revenge he runs into the bot lane and takes a few farm and then dies bc he was past river with no tier 1 turret or vision. he spent the rest of the game asking the enemy team to report me for being a bad adc. thats my story about people asking for reports

Hey pal, I know you spent the last 15 minutes running into the enemy fountain while calling our entire team feeding faggots not fit to lick your taint and that we're the only reason your stuck in this rating and that the jungler should of dedicated his life to camping your lane so you didn't die 1vs1 within 60 seconds of laning starting, but how about we load up a custom together and I'll give you some advice and pointers that I'm 100% sure you'll be open to listening to?

the combination of letting employees be really open about stuff when responding to the community while also have a large number of teams that don't have much internal communication is a deadly one and the finest way to enjoy the League of Legends is to not pay attention to the man behind the curtain because they're a retard

I stopped playing league for a while (overwatch and factorio came out, basically). What's the good tank jungler route these days? Is it still gruul -> blue -> wolves -> red -> gank or has the mets switched back to starting with buffs?

Oh come on, it's really obvious why they do this. 75% of League games basically end with 2-3 morons spamming "Report X."

It gets old really fast, and people who do it are just as toxic to the game as anyone who actually talks poo poo.

The problem is that "report gnar" half the time means "Hey, other team, not sure if you've noticed he hasn't shown up since 5:00 but gnar has been /dancing in fountain shouting slightly misspelled racial slurs the entire game instead of playing, please report him" and the other half means "Hey, other team, gnar went 0/3 in lane and wouldn't help me 1v5 your entire team in your bot jungle for no reason, report this feeding mongoloid homosexual for ruining my hard-carry"

The first should be allowed, the second shouldn't. Riot has forbidden them both because riot is too stupid to tell the difference, and they can't make the first unnecessary because they can't figure out how to make the "AFK player" autoban notice if a player is technically still connected and pressing buttons but only doing so behind their own nexus turrets.

When I die, I hope they say I made the eSports industry a better place than I made millions of dollars.
I don't ever see or deliver requests for reports because there's zero reason to ever talk to the opposing team in a game of league of legends and all chat should be disabled by default.

Riot is probably trying to crack down on it because it's loving obnoxious to have two people on your team flaming each other and threatening to report each other and all the time spent talking about who should be reported is time spent not concentrating on winning the game.

I use all chat when jungling to put enemy carries on tilt. If, say, a mid Zed complains about being camped I ask where his tent is so I can borrow it.

To be fair (and I wanna make this 100% clear I pretty much never use team chat outside of announcing cooldowns, if I think a player is bad I'll just whine to my friends on skype not in game) i have seen teammates who we're doing super lovely and getting mad at me/other teamates go to /all chat more often to "report abuse" than I've seen people in /all chat reporting legit abuse. It's straight up a "I'm going to tattle first' kind of issue and 99% of the time the person whining in allchat about another player is in fact the person who started the fight in the first place. i totally respect a rule against that poo poo because the reality is the other team hasn't seen your team chat and doesn't know the context, they have no legit place in getting involved in your drama.

Why would the enemy team care why they should report someone from your team? Pretty sure it makes no difference if they are reported by 3 people or 6.

Also, most of the time "report x" means "we lost and I have to put the blame on somebody, also I don't know what feeding means"
