It's been great that Riot games has had someone like Lin (an experimental psychologist) to think about issues of community and abuse. And I appreciate that Lin has been previously been so forthcoming about their experiences and findings.
But the much trumpeted League of Legends Tribunal has been down "for maintenance" for months, even before this article was published, with much discussion by the community of how it was broken. On this, Riot and Lin have said nothing.
