Beating myself up

I've always had a temper. Been chat restricted and two week banned multiple times. My most recent two week ban was a few weeks ago, and due to Hurricane Irma I had to evacuate. I just got back yesterday and played for the first time in awhile tonight.

Did my damn hardest not to let lose my temper, and compared to my previous games, I held it in. I usually go off on people screaming at them in all caps, but I didn't do any of that.

I trash talked.

For two games, all I did was trash talk. I let loose a "fuck off" or two but I tried to hold my tongue and I did for the most part. I told myself in my second game I have to hold myself or they will perma ban me.

They did anyway. Two games, after coming back from a two week ban, and I get perma banned.

All the money I spent. The time and tears it took to grind my way into Silver. To get 10 gemstones for Hextech Annie. The memories I shared with my bf who got me into league in college.

All gone.

Most people will say that people who get perma'd deserve it. When I lose my temper I probably do deserve it. But I was holding it in and trash talked. Got banned anyway.

I sent a ticket but with Riot's strict rules I know it won't be of any help. Just trying to write out my feelings I guess.

Some people will say "just make another account and reform yourself."

I have two other accounts. Just doesn't feel the same, they aren't my original one. I haven't spent much money or time into them.

Sigh. This hurts, Riot. You never punish people this fast, at least for me. Two games! On my first night back playing.

That's not fair. I plead for another chance.

While I wait I'm going to go cry in my misery.

If you do get unbanned, unbind all your keys except the ones you need to play the game (summs, abilities, items, etc.) That way you can let your rage loose and your team won't really be offended by "rewqwewqeeeqerwerqerq" :^)

Trash talking is equally against the rules as flaming, the only way it really escalates is if you go into personal insults/hate speech like asking for suicide or using racism ect. It's all considered toxic chat and if your "reformed" chat was trash talking people when every other game you were an explosive bomb of flame that isn't any better.

Riot looks at this at a game by game basis, they basically describe player influence as positive, negative, or neutral. Most players do all 3 in some games but to get permabanned just from behavior you have to be negative in excessive amounts of games and have been banned several times. Most players aren't getting banned for flipouts because the games they don't flip out in they're either polite and constructive or saying little to nothing. Basically its fine if you have to explode once in a while, it could escalate into a temp ban if you do it a lot, but typically it won't have consequences. But your behavior pattern isn't negative once in a while and neutral most of the time, the way you're describing it is that you're going from heavily negative to less negative and the end result is you're still being a jerkass in most games and breaking the Summoner's Code.

I don't have your logs or anything so IDK how warranted the ban is but the automated system usually takes its time before banning anyone and you're likely to get temporary bans first, you should've had some warning
