Do real people issue bans/suspensions or just bots?

I have to ask, considering my last game the entire team trolled and picked on me, and then said they were all going to report me, in which i did absolutely nothing wrong, and then logged into the game just now to see I have a 14 day suspension. So I ask, are real people actually reading the chat logs, or is it some bot that just bans based on number of people that report?

The vast majority of bans are completely automated. Things are only manually reviewed when an account gets a ton of reports without being punished, or a front page Reddit thread. If you got a 14 day ban, and you haven't been chat restricted yet, you were either intentionally feeding or you used one of the "zero tolerance" phrases.
