After streamer Voyboy complained about the increasing toxicity in League of Legends, Riot Games took specific actions to enhance the effectiveness of the reporting system. However, the results are still unclear; all we see is Riot Games banning quite a number of players for “absurd” reasons. Previously, we encountered cases where players were banned for suggesting teammates build magic resistance items, and now, even praising teammates for playing well has led to severe bans.
My friend seems to be too toxic for Riot, so he must have had his account locked for 14 days.
Was he banned just for being too kind?
I once encountered someone who spammed “ff” continuously just because of a few failed ganks, but then the whole team played well and I ended up carrying the game, while that spammer got a few solo kills on the opponents. At that time, I praised them for playing well, but all I got back were comments like “Don’t say nice things to me anymore, it makes me really annoyed.” I don’t understand what has happened to the community when compliments have become negative feedback?
That’s right, a lot of people have a very poor gaming spirit; too many think they are playing well and get demoralized when the game starts to go poorly.
“Eliminate them with kindness; they must be banned, we cannot allow players like that to exist,” this could very well be Riot’s approach.
I wouldn’t believe it, but after witnessing the terrible support from Riot recently, I believe that such things can actually happen.
Maybe Riot knows your desktop wallpaper is too ugly, so they decided to lock his account.
That’s true, I would choose to permanently ban him too.
After nearly 10 years of development, League of Legends has built an incredibly large and thriving community. The downside of such a large community is the increase in toxic players while gaming. Gradually, League of Legends matches have become filled with vulgar language and insults, and as is often the case, when you show kindness in such a “toxic” environment, you also provoke your teammates and other players, even leading to reports.
However, just because you report someone doesn’t mean that player will get banned. If Riot Games allows the current situation to continue, the few good-natured players in League of Legends will gradually disappear. As a result, their game will slowly turn into a place for endless arguments and continuous “keyboard bashing.”
