[I can't prove anything here but I have no reason too.)

I got chat restricted 4 months ago, I got it again today. My first one was for asking to report someone who was walking down mid and feeding. Now, I get chat restricted for telling a Chinese troll, to go back to his own region. I'm not saying I shouldnt be chat restricted but im saying these punishments are terrible. Before my first ban I was honor 4 and probably about to be honor 5 then i got banned for asking people to report (i report everyone who ask for reports ever since my banned and those people arent being banned, riot told me, that people who ask for reports are always punished)

I got honor 1, 3 months ago and I was 2/3 checkpoints to honor 2, now im reset back to honor 0. You shouldn't lose your honor unless you are saying shit every match and being toxic as hell. For the last 4 months, I have probably been nice 95% of the time, That is out of a shit ton of matches. It's just crazy that I have to go through another 4 months before im even close to honor 2, I might as well just being a toxic player because I see toxic people almost every game have honor 3/4/5s and they dont seem to be punished. Either fix the punishments or dont give them out at all.

Basically what I am saying is that this system is trash and I see tons of toxic people being toxic, I report them and get no messages of their ban, I can't be 100% nice person all the time in such a toxic community like this. I get a chat restriction after having one 4 months ago for asking for a report and its stupid.

If Riot post what I said in chat, make sure you (riot) post what the troll was saying so it has context.

It doesn't matter your context. If someone calls you a racial slur, you are not then enabled to call them one back free of consequence. That's just not it works since you can just troll people and bait them so you can be as toxic as possible.

That's where you're wrong, friendo.

Specially considering that you're witholding your chat logs, it clearly means you're fully aware of the reason you were punished.

If other people can make it to honor 5, and not be toxic 100% of the time, you can as well, if you set your mind to it.

Hey,

This Board is for serious reports of in game bugs, not for discussing the chat restriction and honor systems. Those kinds of discussions are better suited to the Player Behavior section of the Boards. I am going to lock this thread up so it doesn't get bumped and take up important bug reporting space.

If you guys have any questions about this lock, feel free to come by the Discord.

Thanks

Show logs if you want to prove this is unfair.

Few things here that seem to have escaped your notice.

It doesn't matter what someone else does since 2 wrongs don't make a right and you admitted you deserved the ban.
Riot's punishments are fair and the loss of honor etc is a known punishment for being toxic. IT's their as a deterrent so you won't be toxic. They tried just chat restrictions that didn't work so they escalated it.
It doesn't matter how many reports per game are sent in, it still only counts as 1 reported game. The system isn't going to nail you for 1 game unless your chat is filled with horrible stuff or you're feeding.
The fact you've been punished before means you're on Riots radar then and you had better behave.
Asking for someone else's chat logs is never going to happen and is a bad excuse to not post your own since you know you won't get them. That would violate their account privacy.
You're asking us to trust you and say believe you all the while trying to deflect blame onto someone else who may or may not have done what you said. You're also sitting here insulting those responding to you. For someone who's so innocent you sure do want to blame everyone else for what happened.

Since S1 we've seen countless trolls, racists, flamers etc come to these forums all doing the exact same thing as you are doing. They've all been guilty as sin. The old Tribunal Ban Inquiries forum is littered with posts just like yours. No one here is going to believe you or trust you after what you've posted and we're in no way haters. We've just learned to know better. when we see these types of posts.

Lastly, we also aren't worried about getting banned falsely since while most of us have our moments we know to keep ourselves in check. We don't want to become a negative statistic. If you really need to rebind your chat key to something hard to reach so once game starts you can only use the smart ping system.

I'm a support main as well and I do understand the hate that supports get all too well. More than likely your issue wasn't the 1 game that triggered your punishment but several since when you get a reform card it almost always has the most recent game that was used to punish you in it. What you can do is ask support nicely mind you for all the reform cards that were part of your most recent punishment.

Perhaps there's something you don't remember and this might help jog your memory of what happened. Just remember it doesn't matter what that troll does since oftentimes they want you to respond. If you cross a certain line(s) you're going to get punished. That troll almost always gets punished as well, either sooner or later yet you sadly don't get to see the satisfaction of them getting nailed.

That is unless they come here and post about it and say they were unfairly punished whereas you said you deserve the punishment just not the severity. What usually happens is they inflame the forum until a Rioters comes in and posts the reason they got punished. They turn around and change their tune and say what they did was ok racism, death threats, rape, cancer on family, murder etc.

You've at least made progress in realizing you made mistakes and deserved the punishment and are coming to grips with how hard it's going to be to get back what you lost. However since you've realized you were wrong it'll make it easier going forward hopefully to change your behavior and not respond to trolls or someone just having that bad day we all have.

Like I said rebind your chat key and don't say you're on a chat restriction, just say in champ select you don't talk much and instead like to use smart pings. If someone starts flaming you ignore them or mute them but don't say it in chat. simply go about your own business and play your role. You can also earn all that honor back by playing more games but remembering to take plenty of breaks, especially if you get on a losing streak or are getting frustrated.

Do what I do and curse at your monitor, although avoid hitting your desk as that gets painful and breaking mouse/keyboard gets expensive. Just keep your head down to the grindstone so to speak and don't respond and you'll be back up there before season is over.
