Re-posts are going to be inevitable!

I hope we get something really really fast!
I expect too much

Players who are banned just make new accounts anyways, and continue to ruin their experience for new players.

You could make getting into the prison island a lot easier than getting banned, since the players can still play, so if smurf accounts continue their negative behavior, they just get placed right back in there.

I don't get how you can say that toxic players often don't realize how negative their behavior actually is, and then say that 9 positive players might be able to have an impact on that one toxic player. I don't have the kinds of data that you have, of course, but I would expect the genuinely toxic players who don't understand the negativity of their own behavior wouldn't be influenced by positive players at all, because they wouldn't understand how positive their behavior is.

Prison island isn't just a place for jerks to play with jerks, it also comes with longer queues, higher stress, and a higher chance to be placed with trolls who will cause them to lose games. If they want to get out of it rather than just having all their accounts end up in prison together, they'll have to reform their behavior. No one is happy playing with people who have genuinely negative behavior; there might be a few people who view being in prison island as being in 'hardcore' League, where they have to toughen up and be as toxic as ever to protect themselves, but the players who just don't understand what they're doing wrong might see themselves in a whole different light if they keep ending up in prison island.

I would like to suggest that one of the reasons champ select can be so rough is because people feel forced to communicate only the role they think they are best at, and no one talks about what other roles they believe they could validly fill. Why not force people to rank their proficiency in all 5 roles and some how display that in champ select, so that everyone can see them. This way at a glance everyone can see exactly what roles the players each believe they excel in. This would be a good starting point for a team discussion to begin.

I think this is a good starting point in forcing people to communicate with their team mates and trying to work together. That way the whole team can be involved in the conversation about whom should go where each time. For this to work however you must change the champ select lobby to have some sort of icon which can be quickly viewed and recognized by the general public to determine who is good at what role.

My own icon rankings would probably be adc>Jungle>mid>support>top

If they are aware they are on a Prisoner's Island, then surely they must be aware that there is a way out besides creating a new account.

It's a pretty drastic shift to how people currently think about the game, but it is a reflection of how the game mechanics influence behavior. Freelancer is a pretty dope name for a support However, I'm not sure how much people would accept a Freelancer who is rolling around as a double-jungle gold-absorber. It gets back to the issue of whatever you do, the team has to be ok with it too. Since it's not only about your choice, it's about the four other player's desires and expectations.

We've tested many different queue penalties in the history of League of Legends. If you don't have any penalties at all, queue dodge rates skyrocket. Players leave for many diverse reasons:

- perhaps the team composition wasn't optimal
- perhaps the opposing team composition was too strong
- perhaps they didn't get their role
- perhaps they didn't get their champion
- perhaps someone was being toxic
- perhaps someone was AFK
- perhaps the Captain didn't do the drafting the way the team wanted
- perhaps a perceived OP champion was chosen by the enemy team
- perhaps a perceived UP champion was chosen by a teammate

What happens is you have more lobbies that end in a queue dodge than actually enter a game. However, when we introduced stronger penalties, queue dodge rates dropped by 50%. Changing and tweaking queue dodge penalties is an extremely tricky science. On one hand, we want players to be able to have an opt-out mechanism to get out of games that are definitely not going to be fun; however, if we have no penalties at all, the actual time it takes a player to hit "Play" and enter the game after several lobbies increases dramatically past 10 minutes. Micro-managing Champ Select lobbies really isn't that fun, and we don't want to encourage it.

This is really thinking outside the box idea. I am not saying it is good, just that it is different. Solo queue ranked is supposed to measure skill to compare with other players. So how about it be changed so that when you enter lobby, one of the champs in your list is selected for you and you are stuck with it. Then the team spends the time discussing how to strategize with the group rather than fighting about who plays what.

Is it to much to ask that after a long day of college to go into matchmaking and actually play the role I want without having to fight for it.

GREAT IDEAS....we really need to know what roles we're going in B4 we que

maybe give IP bonuses for unpopular roles

Alright, listen these kind of things you need Clairvoyance for, people have no mercy and no sympathy for people who play onlinegames, it's the Internet. This is in games , it's just how it is.almost every one is a ***** when he's faceless, nameless, and with no sense of consciousnesses,

response from the quote

I personally understand that League of legends is a game and a game is meant for entertainment, but league of legends is a highly frustrating game, it's the truth, it's competitive.

there are only 2 ways or several ways a game can go ,

Pure plane fun and enjoyment: games like skyrim, minecraft.
Completive : it's hard it's a race , Meta CS E-sports stress.

IF you want fun do not start up league of legends, if you win fine, good game.
If you lose be it once or twice, you will be depressed and even with it's almost like4chan community.
Even with the tribunal the Toxic behaviour continues. You know why ? because it works at a degree
What is the problem ? the community, who's gonna solve it The community yea good idea let the problem solve the problem. Hell even E-sports gamers Cheated in the finals and some Got even banned due toxic behaviour people with high ello are no different from people who are low or middle ground.
i played more over 2200 LoL games since beta, i like the game. but with the Whole E-sports the game has become a sport

i think it's a good example: sport.

image as kid you start football it's fun with friends for the first months playing for nothing, and then the competitions happen you're getting pumped up, trained. You feel like champ.
Further down the line it's far far far more serious people will shout at you if you make a mistake people will judge you, if you do so, and sometimes you're going to get kicked on the knee, or a ball in your face. and lose some teeth.

this is perfect example of league of legends. it's not a fun game if you lose. it's highly frustrating and quite Frankly starts to make your day Worse. you express your anger, like in sports and then you get send off because the only thing the judge saw was you screaming not what happened before, just your screaming that's why A: the tribunal works at a degree B: get's really really annoying.
Every person with brain will no doubt have concluded that 70% of humanity are tossers, and no i am not saying this because i am mean, you want to prove me wrong then ?

I play vindictus at the point because being a Female with a scythe and killing mobs God of war style in an mmo is so much fun i am Sprouting rainbows.

When a friend asks me to play some League of legends i get even depressed of the memories.

If a game Evokes so much rage so much anger it's not a game any more.

off topic,
the feedback system is a poor design choice.
Ohhhh you lost a game, what's your feedback ! are you serious ? do you really think the community is good enough to give Critical points and honest criticism.
