The report system doesn't make ANYONE feel safer and here's why
- It's only good for English speakers. We speak a South-east asian language, and a lot of it is contextual so modern slang just doesn't go through the sensors. We know we're getting threatened but the bots sure as hell don't and don't really care
- We feel hopeless. We never know our reports are going through and even if we report all we want, it feels like screaming into a void and that riot doesn't care.
- Muting DOESN'T WORK. Just mute is stupid because people who are being toxic do it as a PART OF A GREATER PATTERN OF BEHAVIOR. Abusers don't just stop at ONE instance and neither do toxic people and misogynists. When you mute a person on your team it doesn't stop them from being a bigot the next game or continuing to deliberately grief you by spamming your chat or sending mollies your way constantly.
- No one cares about the punishments because they can get on an alt or a smurf anyways. The punishments don't work because people are more than willing to work around them and ruin someone else's game. Ofc we all know of toxic smurfs and literal misogynists who get on alternate accounts just to grief the games of women. This level of misogyny and harassment should be IP bannable imho
- Riot doesn't really care about reports or harassment. These are strong words but it comes from a place of experience. I sent in a ticket that outlined and translated all of the r*pe threats and harassment that our teammate had to endure just because he sounded like a girl and wasn't playing well. It was 14 images long and still riot decided to dump the work load on a bot and callously point out that the report function exists EVEN IF IT DOES NOTHING. How do we even know these people get punished and for how long are they punished for?
Simply put riot doesn't seem to care about the women in this game unless they're gaining traction or have clout. They literally expect more women to play but let guys literally harass and threaten women without punishment.
Hopefully things look up because honestly, women don't deserve to be harassed for literally existing.

For anybody wondering why that funny Message pops up when they try playing comp, it's because of some of the bugs occurring right now. Should be back up shortly.
