I have been recently banned for 14 days for inting with my friends, and I got my honor level to 0. After I got unbanned and played for about 2 days, it said that I unlocked rewards again, even though when I went to my profile it still said that I am level 0. Can someone explain how you level back up from level 0 to 1, from 1 to 2, and if it is easier than leveling up to level 3. Thank you in advance.

I am not a person who flames yet I got banned for saying "Lulu you slut <3" after she said "I like to eat dick". So after the 14 days, YES 14 DAYS for some banter, I started playing again, this time I make sure to just not say anything in the chat. It has been 17 days since I got unbanned and I am still at honor level 0, I asked Riot Support for help and all they said was that I would unlock it soon. Even though I love Riot, I have to say this system is garbage. I have friends who trashtalk all game and are lvl 3, they call others Nazi's and only got punished by not being able to chat for 10 games.[zombie-nunu-tears]

I got banned in the same way, it was one, I repeat, ONE game, it was BLIND PICK and it was with my friend, we just wanted to have some fun, I said someting about reporting him etc. (not for real), and the enemy team (probably all premades) reported me for toxicity... So I got banned for 14 days :-) and I also have friends which are lvl 5, are toxic, flame in every game, spam ping etc. Love this system Riot Games <3 Kappa

That's why you shouldn't spend money on games... Especially this much... There are games that have more relaxed rules and shit but league is like a millenial snowflake designed the ban system

The tribunal worked way better. The playerbase evaluated each case with a vote, and the playerbase understood context which is critical. Tribunal knew when to ban, and when someone was completely in the right.

You are so wrong. Only punishment i have ever got is 14days ban. And i also actually tested it, i made a smurff and said "kys" twice and i got instant 14ban

Got banned for 14 days for saying "you're an ass". 0 prior chat-bans here.

That might have been me who said that

But on serious matter it's garbage to 14 days ban someone for that shit

Something similar happened to me today as well , I was honor level 5 and never really flamed anyone , light banter at most but one match I was a bit late because I was taking a shit , so I told my team "sorry , I was taking a shit" and i got banned for 14 days. Didn't know I could get banned for telling the truth [zombie-nunu-bummed]

Dont like the new system , its pretty trash.

Scheibchenweise2 votes

you just forgot to mention that prior to that you got a 10 games chat restriction ant then another 25 games

ShuryoOkami5 votes

Maybe he didn't you see i also got 14 day suspension for saying "kys"only twice and i never got any other chat restriction or smh like that , next week i had so bad game and i said "you are little f.a.g , my little f.a.g." , and i welcomed the perma ban :D

Kevaman6 votes

Yeah I had a similar thing I've had the chat restrictions 2 years ago then stopped flaming, got angry one game cause i was frustrated that i wasn't climbing and i understand i shouldnt have but got a 14 day ban, there's no way for riot to tell if you have reformed or not , seems like they dont care and its frankly quite sad for people who wanna improve their behaviour

Hey if this is the case I should not have received at 14 day ban I had no warning if this is the case I don’t know what is going on or if you have changes your policy

HC Upsilon16 votes

Riot only caters to the young trolls. If you say anything out of line you get a straight 14 day ban anymore. Then if you email asking them why and try to defend your case they just reply vaguely and ask if there's anymore questions. Then if you ask more questions about anything they don't answer you then clear your ticket. Riot's a joke.

Approximately 3 months now after getting 14 day ban, muting chat and being positive pre/post game/ Still LVL 0 but have been "UNLOCKED" for about 1.5 months now. Getting discouraged as to when I can get LVL 1!

Yesterday, however I received a message saying,"You've been leaving or AFKing in fewer games recently, and your account status has improved. Thank you for making an effort to be a better teammate."

Very odd as I don't afk or leave games at all! I hope this is some sign of the system inching me towards Honor LVL 1 however, as the Honor System is new.

If anyone has ACTUALLY GONE from Honor LVL 0 to Honor LVL 1 PLZ SHARE! Haven't seen anyone post anything about this yet and I've scoured the forums looking for some sort of relief that this is possible!

I remember that i got banned cus i started to flame this cait who would when i engage walk back start to taunt and laugh in chat while i died so yes it was kinda my fault but i am sad that she never got banned.[zombie-nunu-tears]

This new honor system is so trash i got a 14 day ban NO WARNING for asking my team to group and to not die solo. they inted after that still no ban for the inters and feeders but for someone who had honor 5 on one account and honor 4 on my other account both gone they need to fix this new trash system its so garbage and should be fixed or at least have honor levels reset for the new season Not to mention they were beyond toxic with spam pinging and telling me to kill my self and to end my life. good game riot. Edit on my one account it has been about a month still on honor level 0

yeah i got straight 14 day band for telling a guy who was toxic and cussing all game to fuck off i was honor 5 no warning no chat restriction. it doesn't make any sense

Pandemic Punch2 votes

Yep. Sounds about right.

Bulgarian Legend5 votes

okay, i have the same issue. I got a retarded 14 days bann over ONE game of joking around. I am not toxic in general, this is my first ever bann and still got 14 days and back to honor lv 0 .... I was lv 5 honor before the bann. The automated system is just not fair, and even if you argue about your bann with riot support they won't unbann or change it, because they don't care and it's just another day at the job for them....

AzZiree7 votes

yeah same i was defending myself from this horrible toxic person and i have never had a ban or chat restriction and went from honor 5 to honor 0 and a 2 week ban riot needs to fix this

ryunnos5 votes

Flamers rejoice! There is an answer to all your toxic woes and no it isn't mute all. Find 1 person to always honor you after a game and boom you've beat the system, They claim that honor and different players reports do not affect the report system, however as the system is numerically based using a ratio of games/honors/reports and boasts at least an 11% fail rate, I assure you that having a duo basically means you can say whatever you want. In fact, no one at riot even looks at a report unless a ticket is made. "Hot words" only apply if the ratio is met and chat is submitted for review to the instant feedback system. So just to be safe, keep a duo and avoid racism and references to violence. Then enjoy all the toxicity you can muster!

The punishment system sucks hard, it'll ban you for 14 days for 1 game where you are tilted and go off on someone (ally or enemy) and from what im reading here leave you on honor 0 for a super long time even without future incidents.

Encourages smurfs, absolute trash.

I have gone into a game with my friends and we all decided to give a pentakill to the support in min 3, but apparently I "ruined" the enemy team's experience.

Mysticman894 votes

When you're first punished down to honour level 0 (or 1), your honour level is 'locked', and you can't get any hextech loot and getting honours doesn't help progress you to the next honour level.

If you show signs of reform, after awhile your honour level will become 'unlocked' (which is what happened in your picture), and you can start getting loot again (e.g. hextech chests for S grades), and honours you get will count as progress towards your next honour level again.

Get enough honours and play enough games without further punishment, and you'll eventually get upgraded to honour level 1 (repeat more and level 2, even more and then honour level 3, etc up to honour level 5).

edit: I believe 0->1 is easier than 1->2 is easier than 2->3 and so on.

it has been near a month now since i got unbanned from 14 days ban because i was toxic and i still didn't got any progress even though i've got couple of games i've gotten 3 honors... does that have to do with anything? i mean i think the more honors you get, the more they think you're reforemed, right?Gragas

Hello, is this "I got Banned anonymous" ? You see I'm a gangplank main. So even support I'll go gangplank if we need Physical damage. or we have like 3 mages and 2 tanks sorta deal or something of that nature. So I'll get reported for just being me. I was banned by a pre-made 4man report for just existing but I was smacktalking them back so I understand. That was around maybe 6 or so months ago. I've been honored consistently and had hundreds of games. Approaching level 43 and still level 0 Honor. I get most honoreds, I get high rankings, I don't feed and I'm reported by people calling me the most foul names and using vulgar language just for existing, my item picks, my champ picks, my plays.

Riot. Show us the digits. I demand information. Because I highly Highly highly doubt it actually moves. Why would you ever want to give "free" things to those you people Dub "Toxic" when all you do is look for "Key words" and straight up ban people with no context.

He said "Die" BAN He said "Noob" BAN that sort of thing.

I'm never an instigator and I smack talk contextually. Which was allowed by ToS. I'm harassed daily for my picks and choices and respond with a short Non-racist, Non-sexist, Non-skill level based retort. And I deserve to be permanently level Zero?

ryunnos1 votes

You aren't alone bud. I am still on the 0 train after I asked the other team to report someone for cursing at me. After 3 weeks of email I got almost an answer as to why I was punished. "Not being positive" was the answer I finally got from the 5th support member I spoke to.

Hey there,

Chat restrictions are there to let you know that your chat behavior isn't what we want to see in League of Legends. Look at your chat log under the lens of "is this helping my team? Is it positive?" to understand where we're coming from. To see what sort of behaviors are positive for a Summoner in League of Legends, please take a look at the Summoner's Code:

http://gameinfo.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/game-info/get-started/summoners-code/

If others are being negative, arguing back with them won't stop them. While muting is good, you have to be the bigger person and ignore them. It's not worth risking your account by stooping to someone else's level and arguing back to them.

I'm sure that if you follow the Summoner's Code, you will not be perceived as a negative player and will reform. Unless you have any other questions I'll be closing this out.

The 0rphan Riot Games Player Support Morgana Support

What aggravates me more than anything is the vagueness of their responses. They linked me to the summoners code but didn't quote really anything. When I actually gave them a well thought out response they continued to dance around proving the only thing they care about is saving face.

poms10042 votes

wanting us to be "bigger person" yet lets toxic players run around for free. gg riot.. nice freaking logic.

WildxDude3 votes

What i dont understand is why Riot isnt responding at all. I mean if someone gets downgraded in honor. then plays for good month or 2 with getting honors and no reports i expect to be upgraded again, i don care about loot i would like to get that nice border in loading screen and i think i mean you get an actual punishment you get a 10 game chat restrict e.g., I expect to see some progress in my honor level after a month at max. I mean what is the point i this system if you only get punished and not rewarded at all. 0 feedback

you have to consistently get honored every game with no reports

So on eune, where you can't play a game where you don't get a report, you are permanently locked.

That's it, mute button exists, even for pings now. RIOT should only ban trolls (which they don't), not flamers who have an easy counter.

I got banned on the 24/09/2017 for 14 days, I'm currently waiting for my unban on the 08/10/2017 and I'm not sure if I'll be able to get back to Level 5 honor again before the season ends. I was lightly toxic asking the 'Lee Sin, how many q's can you miss' and I got banned for being toxic... I hope that I can get my Level 5 Honor Back Yasuo

Us Yasuo Mains are not all completely toxic

I played with 3 premade inting trolls and who got chat restriction? The one who got S with 3 0-20-0 inting premades. I did not use toxic words just copied their stats every time they died. So I got 10 games chat restriction for 'toxic' spamming, while they are happily inting in their games. You better don't give a flying crap on this game and start inting, you won't get banned if you don't buy 6 tears.
