Perma banned for playing off-meta

Well this is fun isn't it

I play a lot of Sona mid, sometimes you can get hard focused and teammates will flame you That's not fun to deal with at all, I must get reported every loss about 2-3 times from my salty teammates even if I am the one doing well on the team

Yes I get angry and respond to these people but this should be nothing that should get me banned, however I have my suspicions that I have been permabanned just for playing off-meta and recieving a ton of reports I have invested over £1000 into this account and have only ever offended twice, it's completely unfair how you can be perma banned for only 2 offenses I have played since season 1 and like I was afraid from getting an** insta-escalated 2 week ban a few months ago FOR SAYING THE FORBIDDEN "F" WORD**

My last game I got to play I had my entire team against me and calling for the enemy to report me, I manage to get banned from it even though I said nothing offensive and yet it appears on the chatlogs as if it is damning evidence for getting perma banned

let this be a lesson to you, if you play non-meta then you are not welcome in this game and you will eventually be banned from getting spam reported

this is completely unfair and I would like a review

https://pastebin.com/KahEsFUF Chatlogs are here, yes I do colorful language so caution Most of this is explaining my predicament hopefully trying to bash some sense into people, it never works

Edit - Alright so after simmering down for a bit I can understand that talking like that isn't acceptable, 2 of 3 of those games were pretty bad on my part, but my point still stands that this is my 2nd offence ever on this account and I shouldn't be perma'd for only 2 offences I will happily take a ban for my behavior and in the future slap /mute all on I cannot interact with people who are out to talk shit on me, because I bite back too hard

you don't get banned for playing off meta. You get banned for flaming them back and being toxic back.

/mute them and move on. Sona mid can be quite strong. Her damage hurts. Just like any mid laner...they can be focused hard...it can happen to anyone. But it's how you're responding that is getting yourself in trouble not your picks.

Well does it say you were banned for playing off meta?

(Probably not)

So what does it say you were banned for?

Were you given chatlogs? If so, post them if you'd like the community to review the game.

It took me 3 seconds of reading your transcript to come to the conclusion: You earned it.

And I have 4 perma banned accounts, and have never talked like that.

TL:DR

I was given 2 week ban for using hate speech and then when i continued to flame and argue teammates Riot did what they said they would do after that punishment tier.

Think hard about what you said. Was it needed, or are you venting and forcing people to deal with it?

I don't know enough about your behavior to know if a perma was justified, but the logs don't seem like you got penalized wrongly. Ranting off to the board isn't going to help your cause either. Take the ban, reflect, or at least pretend to, then try to contact their support nicely, and maybe you'll get your account back. Throwing yet another tantrum on the board will only stack more evidence against you.

Perma isnt the second punishment unless you were using hate speech. Should be two different chat restrictions, then a two week ban before the perma.

Also I don't get the logic of wanting to go an off meta mid laner... and then bitching about the opponent going a meta mid laner... Its like your playing a fighting game, and you tear out your own joystick before the match, then spend the rest of the match bitching your controllers broken... 0.o

I just read your chat logs, and holy hell. I have played thousands of rounds, and this would be in the top 10 for most toxic and offensive language.

You seem to think you did not do much wrong, but your words really are over the top. If I were you I would do some soul searching and make some behavioral changes, its not healthy.

I play ad tf smite heal top. I get salty and get reported and blaimed for every loss regardless if the adc is 0/9/2 somehow it's my fault. I just got a 25 game chat restriction because i was toxic in my games because i have people who think that meta matters and not the fact that they haven't played that champ before. They say to team fight as i was camped in lane and got no ganks. Not just by the jg but mid and bot lane came all the way to top to gank me as well pushing my lane back and allowing my laner to farm which put them ahead of me. Then having died once i get shit saying thats why i don't play tf top even though they all died before me and lost their towers already. The enemy usually knows that I am the most dangerous and focus me from that point on while my team just hurls insults and I'm expected to not respond while they get off scotch free by making me lose rank and get punished?

HOWEVER!!!!

I will say riot is not completely ignorant of these issues. I actually had this account perma banned already and made a promise to do better by the code and they gave me another chance. Maybe if you plea to them and submit a ticket explaining everything you are going to do to improve yourself they will grant you a second chance. I hope to see you in game again.
