riot . my main account contains all champions and runes and is a very big investment to me and i absolutely want to prevent my main from being perma banned at all costs

it is being unbanned in 2 weeks

when my account is unbanned. i plan to do the following.

riot. is this allowed. can i please have a riot response letting me know if any of this is not allowed. i do not want my main to be banned

  1. i will type light shotcalling ingame without ALLCAPS and without spamming.

i used to use what i will call "ALLCAPS SPAM-SHOTCALLING" and you can probably easily figure out what that is. i used this form of shotcalling because i found it was more effective at getting my team to follow my shotcalling and actually win the game. however i realize riot sees ALLCAPS spam-shotcalling as "toxic". even though i know for a fact that ALLCAPS SPAM-SHOTCALLING increased my winrate and was a very effective tool at winning games.

simply put, it made me win more games, and thats why i did it. my spirit of victory tempted me into using any and all methods i judged as being an effective method of getting people to focus on the game and try harder and actually win.

i personally believe allcaps-spam-shotcalling should not be bannable. and riot should simply advise that people mute someone if they are annoyed by it. however sadly, riot sees it as "toxic and bannable" so i will not use it anymore. even though it is a powerful and effective method of actually "winning the game" (which is why we apparently would want to play a ranked competition)



  1. every time i get toplane in champ select. i will paste these messages to my jungler. i dont spam them quickly. i give my jungler time to read them. but i would like to tell this to my jungler in order to get him to stay out of my lane. because that is my most powerful way of playing

XYZ . jungle friend . are you there ? i have to say something

hi jungle friend . ill make this easy to understand . stay out of my lane . i want zero ganks and zero help

jungle friend . that is my one request . i am asking as nicely as i can . i hope you will be nice to me and do this for me . thank you and godspeed

the reason i want no ganks is not becuase i think i am good . it is because i know i am bad . that should be enough to let you figure out the situation . but if you want me to explain it a little more i can gladly do that for you

(( and if my jungler asks me to explain the situation more. i will paste the following 2 lines ))

this is the "only way" i know how to play league of legends . without this strategy i dont know how to win

if you come to my lane you destroy the only way i know how to play . and i become a lost kitten . you wont like me as a teammate if i am a lost kitten



so riot. those are the 2 things i wish to do when my account is unbanned

riot. please respond. are these 2 things "allowed" by your banning policy ? or is any part of my plan bannable?

if so. what do i have to change to not be banned? i do not want my main account to be banned

If you're not toxic you won't get banned for saying things. Just suggest in chat what you think the team should do and tell your jungler that you play super passive and should focus on other lanes, nothing to worry about.

Here's the general rule of thumb. If you have to wonder whether or not it is a mean thing to say to another human being, don't say it. The person that you're about to type to about how they died 7 times and how they should stop playing, is a real person. Imagine someone else sending you the exact message you're about to send. Imagine someone sending your parents the same message; imagine someone sending it to your closest friends. If it's not a mean thing to say, you'll be fine. Trust me, Riot won't ban you for normal language, just some people don't really know what "normal" language means >.>

riot banned me for "allcaps-spam-shotcalling" which i promise contained no insults and no negative language. it was 100% pure shotcalling. but because it involves allcaps and spam it was bannable

im wondering if my light shotcalling is allowed

and im wondering if my "champ select message" where i ask my jungler to "stay out of my lane" is allowed

riot pls respond. i cannot risk having my main banned. its too large of an investment

I'd knock off both of them unless you want a permaban.

If you want people to take you seriously you should probably start using proper grammar and trying to make your thoughts intelligible. Is english your first language? If it is than you really have no excuse. Your "copy paste" string would make me absolutely dispise you.

Simply say, "Hey xchampion, try and gank bot and mid more, im pretty good up here. If I need you I'll let you know"

Also, admit that you are not always the shot caller, in fact, I'm pretty sure top lane is second to last in team order of shot calling, only above the ADC.

All caps spam is never acceptable, but simply I do not believe that that is the reason you were banned. You have some other toxic tendencies if you got on e of the longer term bans and are facing a permaban soon. Try to focus on those toxic behaviors over all else.

For example, how do you act when the jungle does gank? Do you rage or flame? Do you afk often? What triggers make you have toxic behaviors?

i have no toxic behavior or gameplay

if riot posts that i have any toxic gameplay. i would be absolutely mindblown because i always try to win no matter what in my gameplay

i dont rage at my teammates. i only type shotcalling

im pretty sure i was banned for allcaps-spam-shotcalling , because i would do it almost every game

i would only type shotcalling. but i can see how riot viewed it as spam, even though that "spam" made my winrate much higher and it worked at making me win more games

If you have those lines programmed into a macro where it pastes them at the push of a button then yes, you will be banned.

Otherwise, I don't see anything wrong with exactly the above.

How about if someone doesn't follow your shot calls? What happens then?
Do you simply spam more?

One more thing: while there's nothing "toxic" to me about your chat, it might be viewed differently by someone in-game who is on tilt from their last game.
To win, you need to keep those people calm.

To that end, consider re-wording the "hi jungle friend . ill make this easy to understand . stay out of my lane . i want zero ganks and zero help" and "you wont like me as a teammate if i am a lost kitten" lines so they don't sound like you're playing League while sitting on a cactus. Maybe add that bit you mentioned at the top about "because that is my most powerful way of playing" instead?

Chat macros aren't going to get you banned unless the chat itself is breaking the rules. The 3rd party application rules aren't that strict.

LostFr0st1 votes

That's good to know Nami, thank you for correcting me. I shall add it to memory for future reference^^ If OP contacts player support would they be able to assist him/her in understanding the root of their chat ban? That way they can remedy their behavior in time.

Deep Terror Nami1 votes

He's already had extensive chats with Arbiters and Player Support and nobody can convince him, so no not really.

If you're not doing it in a negative way, then it's fine but as a personal opinion, you shouldn't feel so entitled to effectively boss your teammates around. Try doing the nice thing and make a positive effort by saying things like "Hey, can you guys play defensively" or "Please try and build tanky, we're going to need it late game." along those lines.

Caps locks LOL...like I'm pretty sure the internet knows that anytime something is in Caps it means something rude. No offense but regular type can still convey the message the same way. No one is going to hear your shouts. To be honest if you're still trying to pass the Caps message it just shows you aren't learning your lesson from the first or I guess current ban.
