Different ping on different accounts

I was banned for.. a long time lets just say that. I got my account back but my pings is anywhere between 34-48 or even 60 at times, when I was forced to play on another account which I kept silver for a long time, it was locked at 32 ping sometimes even 30. How is this possible? I myself have several theories.

  1. My main (this one) has a lottttt of champs and like 20 something skins. More game information on shitty pc = higher ping?

  2. This account is bronze. (I have shitttyyyyyy pc) integrated graphics, athlon x2 5000 and 2g of ram. I have a HUGE upgrade coming late august and silver will be easy to obtain for obvious reasons. It is my fault it is just too frustrating for long term play. In summary of #2, I think riot may give bronze accounts who have been hardstuck for years, higher ping.

((upgrading to ryzen 5 1600, gtx 1060 (3g), and 8gb of ddr4 ram. silver and gold are coming soon for me fosho. 100 fps increase at least))

  1. My account is just over three years old with over 3000 hours played and SEVERE penalties. You can not have an account in a worse state than mine. Trust me. riot may optimize server for players with better behavior or who climb faster. Or who spend more money than I do.

My questions to you: What do you think about this? Is this fixable? or reversible if it is behavior or elo-time ratio? Do you have any experience with this phenomenon? Do you have suggestions? Is it my ram? Or something else? Feel free to say whatever you want. This is just a guideline.

Sorry for going on in number 2. Go easy on this bronze player.

Thank you for your attention

  • (This higher ping is messing up my already extremely limited fps, and I'm worried my main account will still have high ping after I upgrade my pc)

Also..... it is saying point number three is point number 1, but when I go to edit, it says 3. That is a visual bug or something on the forum not a mistake

i don't know about giving higher ping but riot games has already proven they don't care about low elo players and their opinions. if you aren't good at the game or don't spend a lot of time/money playing it riot is of the opinion you should shut up, bend over, and take your dicking. no questions asked. i remember when riot was a small company and was still using someone else's servers. they cared about the community back then. unless it makes front page of reddit or a pro player/famous streamer makes a huge deal about it you can forget about riot changing their game the way the 70 plus percent of the community want them to. what? zoe w does more damage then ahri w? and it gives move speed? and a free summoner spell? and the entire community wishes she had never been created? balanced. heimerdinger fiddlesticks bot lane is making add completely obsolete? better leave that alone for a few patches, just to see how it shakes out, and when we do finally try and fix it, were gonna make fiddle E cost more mana, because mana regen for supports isn't completely broken right now or anything. just troll around and have fun my dude. don't worry about climbing, don't worry about try harding, and if you get an account banned you can buy a brand new one for $35 with a simple google search already leveled to 30 with a positive win rate. if you worry about these things you're just gonna get stressed out and not wanna play the game anymore.
