I'm not necessarily opposed to some sort of ranked restriction, but this is the wrong way to go about it. | ||

plus, I don't think lpq is a good idea in general. Even the way it's implemented in Dota has big problems. Either they just go on an alt, or sometimes people just afk it out. | ||

There is really no logical reason to think that because most of the bans are for chat logs and not things that actually affect game play. If anything, the opposite should be the policy considering normals is where people go to relax. Its choices like this which make you wish Blizzard had created LoL instead of a company that seems to always treat symptoms instead of diseases, and makes choices that will impede stated (or implied) goals. Not that Blizzard is infallible, but they did dump the RMAH and make uniques worthwhile. | ||

But I'm not a gigantic Riot conspiracy theorist like most TLers. i just think they used previous stats to say it. the whole people who are ragey in chat lose more games, and chat restricted = less ragey therefore they must have less losses. also you know, people who are chat restricted have been known to jump into co-op vs AI to speed through the restriction much faster. and winrates in co op are far higher than in ranked for almost everyone. | ||

I could start every game by typing the whole of Jimmy Buffet's Cheeseburger in Paradise to start every game, then role play as Jar Jar Binks for the remainder and nothing would be affected. That is, unless my teammates raged(And changed their play as a result) when I typed "meesa be thinkin dragon be spawnin at 15:41". So, no, it's second order at best at changing gameplay.  | ||
