Is modding skins or other harmless things allowed?

Well it's not auto detected if that's what you're asking.

Though, technically if you get reported for using a 3rd party program or something, it will hit you with a ban.

no, only if it's one of the programs that has other features that are against the game rules. If it is a program that just does skins and nothing else then it is perfectly fine.

As i said, the actual skins aren't not allowed, but i don't think they're going through and checking what kind of 3rd party program you're using or files you've changed if you're reported by other players.

But because custom skins are client side, then no one should be reporting you for it anyway.

No. Only if the programs being used are those they have said are against their terms because they use things that give advantages over others will get you banned.

Cause as seen in there "Custom Models & Artwork (Skinning) - Allowed (for now)" so skins are indeed allowed as they give no advantage, the person using it is the only one that sees them anyway.

However, Riot does have a security in-game that will detect the use of Third Party programs and if it is something that comes up as against this rules the person will be banned even if it is something that they were only using the Skin feature from. So it's not all just from Reports.
