The report function has turned into a tool of the trolls, they know riot does not care about them trolling so they use the report function to intentionally tilt teammembers they feel disrespected them until they have something to report, meanwhile, they could be literally running it down 0 - 20 by 15 minutes and all anybody ever says is "Please report this inter" or "Dude what is your problem just play the game?" and suddenly they are now the reportable target.

The report function hasnt helped fix the community, its made it worse and its given more power to the people that already ruined games.

Think about it, what good is the report function? Nobody ever gets banned for gameplay violations only chat violations and theres already a tool to control chat violations ... its called mute

I disagree with your statement here.

I've used the report button a decent amount and while generally, I may not get a result from it every time, I do get a result sometimes. Even though it may not be filtering out the people who are justifiably reportable by punishing all of them, at least some of them are getting punished, and that's what matters.

Also sometimes people just have a bad game, or a bad day, and that turns into toxicity, or inting, or sometimes even leaving, depending on the situation. I'm not saying these actions are warranted, but if they aren't being presented consistently in the game, then the leaverbuster and punishment code is not going to punish.

Also the report function helps some people just by being able to report someone. If they had a bad game with someone committing these offenses, then by reporting that person they might already be on track to feel better after that game. I know sometimes it helps me.

Finally, I'd like to point out that plenty of people get punished for gameplay violations. Going AFK or leaving is a gameplay violation and I know many people have gotten punished for doing so, especially after getting reported.

The report function has many uses and so I think that there is good reason to use it. You may not always get the result you want, but life is rarely like that.

The only good argument you make is that it makes you feel good that you had something you could do, in which case there should be a "Never play with again" button instead, since it would ensure you never play WITH the troll ever again but it wouldnt give trolls the satisfaction of reporting somebody who called them out on their trolling anymore.

I agree with a next play with again button. Some people are just plan terrible to play with and if it means I have to wait longer for games, I'd be happy waiting just to NOT play with that person.

I just want to put out there that the report function has worked for me almost every time I've used it - though to be clear I don't report people for their performance unless it's obvious and blatant.
