Riot Unrightfully banning victims of in-game harassment.

I'm so sick of Riot. I'm so sick of the League community. I'm so sick of everything League.

They have a neat game going for them, but the people backing it make it one of the worst. I've actually heard of multiple cases like my own happening, and I'm fed up with it.

I got banned recently (a 2 WEEK ban mind you, and I have NEVER been banned before this, from April 1-14, so I don't get to play URF at all or buy the icons or Definitely not Udyr that I actually wanted) for behavior issues from a game(get this) where we had a "I'M A PLAT SMURF"(This was gold 2 elo... >___>) Pantheon jungle that, even though EVERYONE ELSE backed out from the enemy invading us at lv 1, gave them FB because he didn't just want to rotate to enemy krugs. This was all fine and dandy, like yeah, it sucked, but no one said anything about it. EXCEPT for the Panth. He immediately raged at us, mainly our bot lane(I was support) for not coming to help him even though everyone KNEW they were invading and had already left. So, to "teach us a lesson because I don't care about what happens to you gold noobs' games," he sits in fountain just raging at us for the rest of the game instead of just recovering from a mistake and playing.

I got banned for this game. ME. Apparently because I'm human, and naturally someone pulling this shit in my ranked promo game would set me off. I called him a child and told him to stop being such an ass and just play. He bitched and raged and called us everything under the sun, including assuming I was a girl just because I bitched back at him??? Yet, I GOT BANNED FOR THIS GAME. I sent in a ticket about my ban and they replied to me saying that was the game that was reviewed and got me banned. Like, really, Riot? You do realize, that if you are playing ranked and EVEN IF you don't say a single word, if you are on the losing team, you have a 90% chance of getting reported just because the community of your game is a bunch of pre-teen spoiled bitches that would never blame themselves for their own mistakes.

Fuck off, Riot. I don't want to be a part of your community anymore. I don't want anyone to be able to look at me and say "he plays League" anymore because it's honestly an insult.

Sincerely, Fed up reasonable human being

Retaliation can often be just as bad as the crime than caused it. You are human, you have the capability to choose whether to lower yourself to their level or not. Make sure you make the right choice.

And see, I get that, but it's not like I flamed him for flaming me. I retaliated because I'm not a submissive person who is just going to take abuse from someone thinking it's okay to treat other human beings like he did. I'm so sick of people on league thinking it's okay to be an ass because they have a monitor and keyboard in front of them. Most importantly of all, it's just a game. If your teammates do mess up, it isn't the end of the world. Players of this game for some reason, even after hundreds of losses, still flame and rage when they begin to lose another game. It's impossible to win EVERY game, and out of those 1,000 wins they have, there are at least 500 losses. Why flame over that 501st loss?

I'm not a toxic person in game except when others are toxic... while yes, I admit I need to learn to mute and just move on for my own enjoyment, but I just can't stand people who think they have the right to treat people the way they do over a freakin' VIDEO GAME. It becomes more than just about my own enjoyment in a video game, its become a problem with the way people treat each other in general. Sorry I'm human, and sorry I'm not a submissive little bitch who is just gonna sit there and take verbal abuse right in the face. If I am going to get "rightfully" banned for standing up for myself, then I have no desire to be a part of this community or play this game. I was raised to be confident and stand up for what I believe in and for my friends and myself, not to just bend over and take it. In Riot's bass ackwards tribunal system, it teaches an unhealthy way to deal with conflict, and I don't want a part of it.

Being submissive is when you don't stand up for yourself or others when it matters. Some random guy on the internet raging at you does not matter. You don't have to fight back against everyone just to save your pride. Sometimes you just have to let people demean you so you can continue on a better path they refuse to walk. Thinking they are worth your time is what actually makes them win, and so ignoring them is not being submissive.

Being ready to defend yourself is good, just make sure you don't cling to that idea so much that you end up wasting your time on it.

Most of the time when some one flames/ trolls me I just quote Rammus ,"Ok." It seems to work really well, especially when you're playing him.
