@drewlevin @goodvibesNA When I see the people you talk to, I feel there are often many reasons to perma ban these people... Smurf, multi accounts, int, toxicity... League of Legends looks like one of the most forgiving environment.

@drewlevin @goodvibesNA Why is a master level player allowed to play in silver ? Should I do like this Brazilian player and buy Master level accounts to give the same treatment to high elo players (I will do my best to win of course).

@goodvibesNA Why do you do this shit? Why would I or anyone else think that a chat restriction is appropriate for how frequently and thoroughly your behavior corrodes a game that relies on teamplay?

KC Busio 🇺🇸 on how exercise helps him as a pro: "Scientifically going to the gym is beneficial because a big part of lifting is making sure you're breathing properly and in a higher activation state, and that applies directly on stage." "When you're playing a long league game, if you're not breathing properly, by the end of the game, you're gonna feel exhausted, and that matters a lot in a Bo3 or Bo5" "So, at level one, it helps you with your breathing, which directly helps in League, but also for me, I'm playing League all day, so it's nice to do something else other than League that also gives satisfaction, which is also beneficial for your health. So yeah, overall, it's very helpful and I would recommend it.”

@doc_respawn It is more than well deserved considering the quality of your content! It should be more (and probably will be).

@tommartell @drewlevin @zchalex I understand. I don’t know if I would call it niche. We do not have direct data for North America, China or Korea but we know have some for the European Union. I did not study it enough yet to draw conclusion though at the moment. And I agree all forms of toxicity matter.

Boosting, pings, in game toxicity, etc. are all issues that degrade the experience for many, many players and Riot has historically struggled to address them appropriately, so they are engaging publicly. Death threats and direct harassment are clearly not allowed and are relatively niche issues. I would also expect them to address this mostly in private.

@tommartell @drewlevin @zchalex Also as a French I can sometime be sarcastic which is not the best way to engage online I admit it. I will learn from this and remember next time.

@Prof_Bubu @drewlevin @zchalex It really did not read this way to me (and I imagine Drew as well), but its a good reminder for me to have more grace towards others on the internet and not to jump to the conclusion that other people are being an asshole.

@tommartell @drewlevin @zchalex Then once again I sincerely apologize to Drew and you. I respect what Drew is trying to do toward the community which is not always the sweetest to say the least. I will do better next time I am engaging with Drew (who has provided me some answers in the past).

@tommartell @drewlevin @zchalex By dedication I mean a zero tolerance and permanent ban (including the material) for toxic behaviour which are crimes. It does not seem excessive to me. Why would a company want to keep criminals in its environment? I keep asking Drew because he is a very vocal and present on X.

@tommartell @drewlevin @zchalex Yes I made a comparaison between the situation of this player and toxic criminal behaviour. Because I am amazed by what seems to be the priorities of Riot: banning people for excessive pings, boosting, etc. While I don’t see the same dedication to fight criminal behaviour.

@tommartell @drewlevin @zchalex Riot has an obligation to be transparent (more or less depending of the country) when banning a player (which means to break the contract between Riot and the player). I can provide the references for Canada and the UK if needed. That’s why I talked about the burden of proof.

@tommartell @drewlevin @zchalex @RiotEsports I am really that you think the letter was hostile and accusatory. It talks about a case of death threats and the way the support service answered it. I believe it raises serious issues about toxic criminal behaviour on your platform. Based on concreted and documented cases.

@Prof_Bubu @drewlevin @zchalex @RiotEsports This could largely be a language issue - I just replied to another of your posts with a longer thread explaining why I reacted as I did to your posts. They sound accusatory and hostile, like you are trying to catch Drew in some gotcha. Your letter also comes across like that.

@tommartell @drewlevin @zchalex @RiotEsports The letter I shared with you was a genuine attempt to share some thoughts about the way the support service of Riot treated cases of toxic criminal behaviour (and to get some answers). It is your right to find is stupid, pathetic and anything else you want to call it. Good night.

@Prof_Bubu @drewlevin @zchalex @RiotEsports You really have to get better at mischaracterizing my statements - this is amateur hour. If you are going to use quotation marks, you have to put something I actually said inside them. I called you a "3rd rate ambulance chaser" - you are a terrible lawyer and this is pathetic.
