Allow me to go over my (further) explanation as to why it's broken

1) If someone (somehow) makes it to the tribunal, even by false reports, they'll be punished 99.99% of the time.
2) If someone has THOUSANDS of honor, and makes it to the tribunal, the honor is not taken into account
3) Someone can be hacked and reported, if they make it to the tribunal, the fast change in IPs are not taken into account.
4) People get away with racism in the tribunal
5) I've seen people get PERMANENTLY suspended for calling someone a noob in their tribunal report. (yes, they had past warns, but "noob" isn't a reason to be reported).

That's just the beginning, this list will be added to daily.

Last week, my friend, who has $1120 on his account, plus has brought in over 300 LEGITIMATE refferals, had 1446 total honor, and who almost never broke a single rule got permanently suspended for one report. The report? He said "gg noobs" at the end of a game. All that gone because of that. That's not offensive in the slightest.

1: No, if they make it into the tribunal with only false reports they get pardoned. It's happened before.
2: Honor does not give you a free pass to be dishonorable.
3: I have never seen someone actually get banned by the tribunal if hacked. I have seen someone claim it was a hacker when it wasn't in the past.
4: Those same people will end up in the tribunal again, and will eventually get their punishment.
5: Permabans are reviewed over the entire history of the account.

You then produce the most comical statement I've ever seen. My friend has paid money, and thus should be immune to having their behavior reviewed. Or referrals, or honor.

Post his reform card and we can give you the real reason why he was voted punished in that reform card.

Are people who don't deserve to be banned getting banned?

Tell your friend to post his reform card, I seriously doubt it was for the gg noobs comment.
