the ban/restriction system needs a fix and fast

i just believe even a little work on it could help greatly, i just ask for upvotes in hopes of them seeing this and decided to work hard on the issue. such as. the fact certain words cause a ban or restriction or even abbreviations can cause it. also the more appropriate reason is for banning someone responding to or from a question with the question as the phrase, such as if osme says stfu and they say who are you telling to stfu ? that would be a ban or restriction on them. also some people have had issues where they defended themselves from online bullying by retaliating and not letting them hurt them more than they have and once again the bully gets away with it and the retaliater gets banned. thier are multiple instances. nothing too bad just soemthing a bot shouldnt have control over. sorry for misspelling or wrong punctuation.

...the fact certain words cause a ban or restriction or even abbreviations can cause it.

The only words that really auto-trigger things are, to my knowledge, hate speech and self-harm encouragements. In the occasional instance where someone gets caught by repeating something and they really do seem to be doing so harmlessly, Riot is pretty good at reversing the punishments where appropriate.

also some people have had issues where they defended themselves from online bullying by retaliating...

Retaliating is not a defense. Muting is a defense. Engaging back with non-toxic language is a defense. Harassing the player with toxicity or by constantly bringing up their toxicity just make the game worse for everyone else, and that is why this behavior is punishable.

so if your child is being bullied at school do u tell your child to just take tell the teacher so he gets suspended for a few days then right back to it ? if so then your logic flawed. or any other child or person at that matter people are human soem cant just walk away becosue they have been trained to stand thier ground and not be walked all over, or is it better to wait for an article about a depressed person comitting suicide in order to do something about this.

Again retaliation solves nothing except making the situation worse for everyone involved. Yes we are human and yes some have an issue with walking away but that's a them problem more than anything. I understand that in real life it's not always easy to walk away but in League of Legends there's a simple tool that prevents (keyword: prevents, not excuse) further verbal harassment: the mute button. If people don't want to use the tools available to them because their ego/pride prevents them from doing so then that's their problem, not ours.

that exact method is failing hundreds of suicide victims and children who just want bullying to end you tell a child thats being hurt at school that and he will look at you like your ignorant which would be the case
