Allow people to Purchase level 30 accounts.

DBS Ronovon··10 votes·9,083 views

No one like spending time with bots in 3v3 Twisted Treeline to level up an account to play ranked.

People also don't like to have to resort to botting to save time.

Smurfs are not free.

Then how about this? It's a crazy idea, but bare with me.

What if...you DON'T play on a smurf account.

Yes you can. Sorry but smurfs are not welcome and allowing people to buy accounts would make the entire banning process completely pointless

Smurfs being welcome or not, they do exist, so whats the point of saying this? The banning process is completely pointless, unless you want Riot to have the ability to steal your money.

It's pointless if you have no fears of seeing $1000 worth of money spent on your account getting stripped away thanks to your toxicity.

Why would you want people to lose thousands of dollars on their accounts? All that means is the developers can take thousands of dollars from people, and that is ripe for massive abuse. No other business works this way, and if it were actually taken to court, they would be put in their place and told "No" they don't have the right to take people's money for dumb shit like "toxicity".

It's not like the $1000 is refundable if you still have your account, plus, what's actually stupid is why would Riot be banning those who're respectable customers that spends RP on a daily basis? It goes to show that they actually value player's wishes to have League being a non-toxic environment over money.

This is why your statement is just pure bs, "abuse" my ass.

Because Riot is a bunch of individuals who may be flawed, and businesses often treat customers like trash, even good businesses. Riot does, and the players do too.

Pretty sure those type of "customers" are those who keeps vandalizing the supermarket & continuously talks shit to other customers, and ignores any warnings the security guards & manager has told them. No one gets punished for "no reason".

They are always free to submit a ticket to Riot Support to check for their ban validity. True that there are chances of getting a false ban, but if you have chat logs which contains you saying stuffs like "go die in a hole nig", "pls kys", and etc, you're just wasting your time.

Every time a champion died on the screen, when you get a kill, you're not allowed to talk about it, but you can kill other players in the game? How is this bannable? The game is about killing everything and everyone, but saying die to someone is against the rules? Hmm.... ever think how stupid that is?

Dude, if you ran out of stuffs to "burn" me or "prove me wrong", you can just stay quiet. You looked really pathetic from continuously going down that type of road.

I don't have to answer this sort of nonsense, cz it seems you've reached a pinnacle point where talking logics to you just goes through your ears.

You have terms of service that you have to respect when you create an account anywhere, if you don't follow, ur ban is fair no matter how much money you wasted on it

Why not? Sincere question, but really, why not having multiple accounts?

If you get perma banned, then play a different game, because people obviously don't want you playing this one, which is why the old account was banned in the first place.

Smurfs are bad for the game and result in people complaining about matchmaking... Easier ways to create smurf would result in more people smurfung, rendering bans even weaker than they are, make aram more horrible and random Gamemodes a shitfest of dodges...

thx. no.

I don't think it would be any different. None of the measures in place to stop anything in this game is making the game better. Look at the state of the game as is. It sucks, and these attempts to make our lives suck in League are not making it good. The punishments don't improve it, MMR doesn't improve it, perma bans don't improve it. There is no proof any of this improves any of the game at all, and people are leaving league in droves.

People BOT, don't you get it? People making bots isn't going to decrease, so smurfs won't either, so now what?

if they allowed that then every new player and there mums would spend $5 on lvl 30 account and go into there ranked provisionals and fck up the game for everyone

Riot doesnt like the idea of smurfs. Its pretty much impossible to fight them, so they dont forbid them. Doesnt mean they cant just not support them.

because so many others including my self already have and are more attached to the one account i have because of the hours i put into it. how is it fair to have someone pay pocket change to have a account leveled instantly when a lot of people again self included have spent that time on our accounts. there is no reason for this change you demand.

Chalze1 votes

Ok technically you are allowed to purchase Level 30 accounts, at least from my knowledge (maybe they've changed now).

Under very specific circumstances. And you basically have to meet both. 1 - You are a certified pro player 2 - You want to buy that account in another server.

From there onwards, Riot can offer you an account either free or with payment (I'm not sure about whether it's free or not) around a few divisions or so below your main on your main server.

So if you're asking this, I'm very sure you don't qualify for either so it's a no go.

It should be the same for everyone. How are you sure of anything about me? You don't know me.

Chalze2 votes

This should absolutely not be the same for everyone. Reasons? Everyone else has already said them. How am I sure of anything about me? I'm not absolutely sure. I'm very sure. There's a reason why I used that word 'very' rather than 'absolutely'. How am I very sure that you're not a pro player? Well pro players know this as soon as they get put in a certified team, they're made aware of it by Riot themselves (at least back then, not sure about now) and since you made this thread you obviously don't know it. Could you actually be a pro player? Maybe Could you potentially have skipped over that portion of Riot's rules for pro players? Maybe Could this all be wrong and no accounts are purchasable ever anymore? Maybe I never said anything I said was set in stone.

Its cause riots wants u to buy xp boost so they can make money .. while u lvl up.. or u do it the hard way... it makes no sense that u start from lvl 1 then u have no flash(cause a new person wont get it LOL) then u grind like months to lvl 30.. then u need to buy 16 champs with rp cause BE Is so slow to get

What are you arguing? This all sucks and is not fun, so why again should I or anyone else agree with the way it is? Who are you appealing to? Riot? ME?

RogueWill1 votes

He is arguing the price. At $5 is not profitable for Riot, since it makes more out of XP boost sells. And at profitable price, you just wouldn't pay it since you will rather keep buying cheap black market ones. Price probably would have to be around $35-$50 for a level 30 account

How is the game not profitable at $5, when the game is free. You are saying that guaranteed money is less profitable than optional boosts that no one pays for.

RogueWill1 votes

People buy them. Just because you don't doesn't mean people don't buy XP boost. Is about the same price to get a black market account than it is to level it up on short notice with boosts.

Do you actually know anyone who bought one? I don't. People only use money on skins bud.

RogueWill1 votes

Yeah...several people as a matter of facts. Is mostly smurfs who use it to level them up fast (those who don't but an account from the black market grind with XP boost)

BeatzBoyFTW1 votes

Or maybe it's because you won't stop telling your team to "open mid", "report ADC", "ggez", etc. & you got earned yourself a free permaban.

Despìca Bìll1 votes

On a personal level, I don't want anything that makes smurfing easier. Can you imagine how many shitheads would use it just to evade the tiny bit of bite that the reporting system actually has?

On a business level, it makes no sense for Riot to sell accounts cheaply enough that anyone would want them. Free-to-play games that don't rely on microtransactions can exist because YOU are the product...you provide the most compelling part of their content; actual human players. To compensate for the loss of time you'd be putting into the game, they'd have to charge way more for accounts than anyone would pay.

BeatzBoyFTW2 votes

Pure League newbies already being able to start playing rank, alongside those who've actually learned League by honestly leveling up since Level 1, and when the honest Level 30s knows what's top/jungle/mid/adc/support, on the other hand, they're stuck with League newbies who still builds AD Ryze and puts 1 Rank on each abilities each time they level up.

You didn't even thought this through, didn't you....
