    I found it somewhat funny as well as I'm used to harsh humor, but it really isn't the type of stuff you say to complete strangers. It's humor that you share with friends to bash each other. Not that I've always kept to that rule, but still..

    The punish was more than justified.

    Think about that next time you slip up and cost the team a win, maybe you'll be the one getting banned for having a bad game, or making a simple mistake. Banning people for little mistakes that aren't even malicious is only bad for the community.

    Now, anyone else? No need to jump on me all at once just because you guys are hungry with the power of ban running through you. and for the record, I've never been banned anyway.

    That's why you lack reading comprehension. Failing at Baron due to any reason is not a punishable offence, even if it ultimately caused a lost game. However, giving up, stopping playing and losing on purpose due to that having happened IS a punishable offence, therefore the ban was more than justified assuming what was reported actually happened. If you consider the fact the Eve must have gotten several reports in several games to appear in Tribunal it's easy to check other reported games and draw the conclusion whether it's likely to have been intentional or not.

    Also, if you REALLY don't see anything insulting on racial background in insinuating that it's normal for all Arabian people to wear goat skin and treat beheading as a past-time then I've got nothing more to say to you. Just be careful to not ask any black people you meet if they're done picking cotton for the day, unlike over internet real people might hit back.

    Many f the "intentional" feeders seem like they were merely bad, not trying to feed the enemy team. Is it really against the rules to suck at LoL?

    Nope. And quite a few people don't know the difference between feeding and intentional feeding (which is part of the reason Lyte is going to remove that category for reports).

    Intentional feeders will just run into the enemy headlong and get themselves killed. Over and over and over. Often they wear boots of mobility and a zeal (or two/three). Someone having a bad game will still, generally speaking, have a solid build and half decent CS for their stats.

    What's the obvious reason again? How do you know he's whether he's trolling or new to the game?

    You're given such little information, and yet, you still vote to BAN someone? Ruining their gaming experience (some have used money on it), without actually knowing every major fact? How the hell can you get yourself to do that? Half the time you dont know what's actually going on, because you dont have any in-game footage. Everything's that's wrong with the community is you banhungry asshats spamming punish on the slightest chance, it's pathetic. The only one's you can truly judge is the verbal harassment/offensive language, where they're going nuts on someone. Jesus.

    Are you serious? Do you honestly believe everyone thinks of "throwing the game on purpose" when they say "omg we threw the game", or "omg she threw the game"? I've heard loads of pro players talk of their lost tourney games while using the phrase "we threw the game at X point", do you really believe they did it on purpose?

    "therefore the ban was more than justified assuming what was reported actually happened."

    THIS is the part that bothers me. How can you assume that party1 is telling the truth when it comes to something as severe as banning someone's account? Just tell me, how can you assume they're telling the truth, and not exaggerating?

    Blackroo: you're not voting to have them banned. In fact, the Tribunal does not decide upon any sort of punishment. That's Player Support. Who, incidentally, also have access to a lot more info than the Tribunal.

    Furthermore, you're complaining about a lack of info when there's a snippet of the entire report posted here. Over the course of 4-5 games, it can at times be very easy to see what exactly is going on.

    Still many people mean by throwing a game to "lose a game while being in a advantageous position". I can't imagine a player smiting wraiths with the intent to lose baron. More likely it was "ooooh, free gold, and bonus gold from talented smite, yay!", which is simply poor gameplay.

    There's no such thing as "throwing the game not on purpose" To "throw the game" MEANS to lose on purpose, to give up and lose without fighting, it's in the definition of the expression. You can't throw the game in any other way than on purpose. I assume the expressions are used correctly when interpreting the text I read unless I have explicit reason to believe otherwise.

    Tribunal cases have a lot of info provided, and over the course of several games. Let me just repeat what I have already said, this time making it harder to conveniently ignore:
    If you consider the fact the Eve must have gotten several reports in several games to appear in Tribunal it's easy to check other reported games and draw the conclusion whether it's likely to have been intentional or not.
    Tribunal cases are never from one game. There's plenty of info to draw conclusions from. Also, for this particular case even that little bit of info provided in this thread is not meaningless: the stats looks as if after failing that baron the player in question started intentionally dying to make the loss faster. I don't know whether that was the case or not, but the information in tribunal would likely be more than enough to decide.

    It's impossible to decide whether that was the case looking at the info here alone - the tribunal has much more data though, usually enough to decide. As I said earlier, unless provided with explicit proof I assume the expressions are used correctly when interpreting the text I read.

    You can post the definition of "throwing a game" but everybody knows that it's also used to refer to somebody who just made a terrible mistake that will likely result in a loss (often times in a game that is close or your team is slightly ahead in)

    So while your definition may imply an intention, that's not how it's used in practice. It can be used in cases of intentional throws, or just huge mistakes that will likely cost a game.

    Also, there's no reason to attack people posting their Tribunal experiences, like somebody else said they are only giving you a very small piece of the information that was provided to them through the Tribunal. Most are just trying to find some "humorous" excerpts which may or may not include the worst portions of the report.

    "Everybody knows" is such an ambiguous expression. Here is the first place I've seen people claiming that idiom means something else than it does, up until now I've always seen it used correctly. Also, repeating an error often enough does not make it correct.

    As for attacking tribunal experiences... I'm defending the guys posting them here, and that "somebody else" you mentioned is actually me as well. ;)

    Also most society still wear fur, even though PETA may be against it. and like I said, here isn't the place for this. (also screw you, Bro.)
    I can't believe some people just believe everything their national news channel throw at them, believe bullshit that is written in a magazine or generally on the internet. Wish people would do some research before spouting racist and offensive crap like this.

    Have you EVER been to an Arab country? I have been to almost all Arab countries and countries surrounding them. People don't wear fur in Afghanistan which is said to be the most backward of all Arab countries and you think all Arabs wear fur? Hunting animals is said to be "haram" (illegal) in all Arab countries and they have major religious restrictions on what animals they can consume.

    And there are no public executions. Hanging/beheading happens in specific part in jails and family/people can visit them just like hanging/electrocuting in western countries.

    Don't talk about shit you have no idea about.

    Pretty much this.

    Someone having a bad game doesn't mean they are feeding intentionally. A player can come against a hard counter or face someone vastly more experienced then them. It also depends if it was a normal match or ranked. Low elo or high.

    In order to make a proper judgement you need more info then posted here.

    Besides, this thread is made to have a laugh, dark humor or whatever. Why is the result of the cases bothering so many people who have absolutely no idea what else went threw the game and in the tribunal?

    That's why I'm commenting this piece alone, not the case. Accusing someone of using smite in order to lose baron is, well, fits this thread quite well - very funny.

    Again, you have a definition that is sometimes used in practice, but there are other definitions for "to throw" as well, which don't automatically imply intent. This version of the phrase is USED EXTREMELY OFTEN in the League of Legends community. If you still think it's a completely incorrect use of the word, then call it a "slang term" and we'll call it a day. There are definitions of "throw" or "to throw" that support a lack of intent. For example:

    "To fail to take advantage of"
    "To waste or use in a foolish way"

    My apologies for not distinguishing my second paragraph as it was a general statement, nothing directed at you.

    Do they have an app or something along those lines for the tribunal? Would be pretty cool to be able to participate while on the go.
