Rank Restriction

detØx··1 votes·986 views

So I got mad during my placements and yelled and someone. They reported me and I got chat restricted for 55 games. Fine, I deserve that. But in addition they restricted my Ranked games until I WIN 33 Draft games. On average that means I have to play 66 Draft games before I can play ranked again.

I've decided to quit LOL and play Heroes of the Storm. For those of you that remain in LoL I suggest you be a little more understanding during the Tribunal.

Well... uh... while I appreciate your decision, I think you should know that the Tribunal's down, and has been for months.

Other players' understanding (or lack thereof) of your situation had nothing to do with your restrictions, simply because no other players had a hand in it, outside of the reports. Those restrictions were handed down by Riot based on judgments issued by Rioters.

I don't want to invalidate your frustration with it, just direct it to where it should be.

Anyway, good luck with HotS!

Lol, have fun in HotS. It's not a bad game, but it's nothing like LoL. You're not quitting LoL for HotS, don't kid yourself.

You know what's stupid about all of this... I'm a decent player who never afk's. I take the game seriously and focus on winning the game. I was banned for yelling at someone so take my chat away. I NEVER did anything to screw up a game for others... The punishment doesn't fit the crime.

To be fair, you didn't get banned for one instance of anything. It takes being reported in 12-25% of your games just to have a case built.

So it's fairly safe to say you bothered a pretty decent number of people.

And - this being purely my opinion - yelling at people kind of does screw games up for people.

Then remove my chat, problem solved. I agree I deserve that. It doesn't matter, I know they won't change their decision, but I think it's unfair to remove ranked games to discipline someone who yells at people. Ranked Restriction should be saved for people who AFK or lose on purpose during ranked matches. Chat Restriction should be used for people who yell at other people.

Am I the only person that thinks the TYPE of punishment doesn't fit the TYPE of crime here?

Would you want to have your ranked games removed because you flamed someone?

Do YOU ever your lose temper or are you all saints?

I don't think it matters whether the type of punishment is specifically appropriate to the type of "crime," here. I think they set a goal - convince you to improve your behavior - and tried to fit the punishment to that goal. Obviously, playing Ranked is important to you, so it seems to succeeded in that, at least.

Whether it'll fulfill their goal or not remains to be seen.

And yes, I lose my temper. Fairly often, actually. But you weren't restricted for losing your temper. You were restricted for what you did when you lost your temper. I avoid that by not typing in chat when I'm pissed off. I prefer to yell at my monitor (it likes the abuse).
