14 Day suspension - Worth it? Note: - no arguement throughout the entire game, I never flamed anyone

Whats up, so I had this game, where I was actually surprised I got a 14-day suspension. Now, I have gotten a couple 10 game chat restrictions in the past, but those were deserved as I flamed some people. However, this game (also I recently changed my name to a troll/joke name) I literally never got into a fight. At the beginning, I was joking around with a Xerath (i called him a %%%got as a joke, he said he is etc it got weird ill admit(also i was trying to be ironic by saying suck my dick yea its stupid but he didnt get mad or anything we were joking)) but no toxicity, does this count as hate speech? for the rest of the game, no flame. I think I called someone on the enemy team a stupid bitch cuz I got killed by her. Also, keep in mind, I was not playing for a couple months, so were there some new changes about how easily someone can get banned?

Above, I noted all the parts that might have been why I got banned. Is my name a reason why I got banned also? I mean clearly, its a joke of a name, not serious... but I would change it back if it does do real harm.

Anyway, here is the chat: Game 1 KYSscrubiamgod: me KYSscrubiamgod: xerath %%% confirmed KYSscrubiamgod: suck my dick KYSscrubiamgod: oh wait KYSscrubiamgod: does that make me a %%%got? KYSscrubiamgod: lit KYSscrubiamgod: id take that any day KYSscrubiamgod: coming top riv riv :DDDDD xd <3 rawr KYSscrubiamgod: riven ping next time KYSscrubiamgod: i didnt get a stack KYSscrubiamgod: not worth for me :( KYSscrubiamgod: oh lol KYSscrubiamgod: OH MY LORD AZIR IS FED KYSscrubiamgod: GET LVL 9 THEN WE KILL KYSscrubiamgod: LMFAOOOOOO KYSscrubiamgod: coming to kil garen KYSscrubiamgod: that feddit KYSscrubiamgod: idk lul KYSscrubiamgod: oh sht lul KYSscrubiamgod: are you serious KYSscrubiamgod: that stupid bitch is so annoying KYSscrubiamgod: ez KYSscrubiamgod: my b, thought there was team fight KYSscrubiamgod: gj vyane KYSscrubiamgod: got azirs ult' KYSscrubiamgod: no fight KYSscrubiamgod: wtf KYSscrubiamgod: golden cat coming up boyzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz KYSscrubiamgod: rlly KYSscrubiamgod: excuse me goat KYSscrubiamgod: the LION doin the work here scrub KYSscrubiamgod: yea riven KYSscrubiamgod: gj KYSscrubiamgod: reporting cuz u didnt get a penta KYSscrubiamgod: man ineed to die less KYSscrubiamgod: im so stupid KYSscrubiamgod: im so stupid KYSscrubiamgod: im so stupid KYSscrubiamgod: im so bad KYSscrubiamgod: me?

That...was flaming. Even banter without malicious intent is seen as verbal abuse. You said the "f" word twice. That's an immediate suspension.

Saying the f word (not fuck) is a 0 tolerance policy from Riot.

If you want to say that word around friends, do it in voice com, outside of the in game chat.

Your intention may have just been to make a joke, but due to the nature of text communication, you presented yourself in a way indistinguishable from somebody who would use those words in a hateful and malicious manner.

I'm also surprised Riot hasn't made you change your name. They treat "kys" with the same severity as slurs.

Sory guys, when you were saying "f" word I was thinking fuck. Look, man, I get it. The sad thing is, (I haven't mentioned yet), is that I never say the f-word that much. Rarely IRL, I always cringe inside when it said. In the game, someone called me it, and everyone was just like lul, so I partook in the dark humor and threw it to Xerath etc..., I regretted doing it on the spot, but didn't know who to apologize too... I don't even know who reported me... I feel like it was someone on their team because I think I said "ez" once in all chat after 1 shotting someone.

Again, it still strikes me as surprising that a suspension is thrown out without a warning after using those words. I know IRL they are terrible, and if someone says it, people get pissed off right? Maybe the game, in addition to making it ***, should also have a special warning and say -> Hate speech is strictly prohibited in game chat. I feel if I got that message I would never say it again. I mean let's be honest, no one reads the entire tribunal...

Anyway, thanks for reading and your feedback, I understand now :D.
