Seriously no offense to any riot members or employees just he solely getting banned for not getting sightstone and miscommunicating? He isn't tyler1 your making a good player get angry and possibly quit just cause he doesn't get sightstone and he roams as support. One riot member said it is bannable if you don't get sightstone what if he gets face of the mountain? It should NEVER EVER BE. BANNABLE JUST FOR NOT GETTING A SIGHTSTONE. I don't even know the singed played but it just seems wrong please reconsider and unsuspend his account.

Riot already explained why they were banned.

Specifically this comment elaborates on the "ruling." http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/player-behavior-moderation/79aGu3wR-support-singed-isnt-banable-but-thats-not-the-point?comment=006b

Can you link the Riot post explicitly stating the ban was due to not buying sightstone on support?

oSEXYPLATYPUSoNov 17, 20161 votes

watch the video it show the email from RIOT

I have read the email from Riot. Did you? Because nowhere does it say the ban was due to lack of sightstone.

oSEXYPLATYPUSoNov 17, 20161 votes

i never said anything about sight stone

but in the email he got back from the riot employee shown in the video states

" I highly recommend not doing it anymore expect doing it with a group of friends who dont mind that you're playing Singed support to go counter jungle, not build sightstone, and roam"

therefore he was being threaten to be perma banned for not playing meta support and stating roaming, counter jungling and not getting sightstone

Sorry, I was replying quickly as I was loading into an ARAM so I didn't notice you weren't the OP.

Regardless, you're perpetuating taking that statement out of context, just like the OP. If you actually read the whole thing, before that quote it says:

While picking Singed Support isn't inherently bannable, refusing to work with your teammates is. This includes communicating with your teammates what you want to do. You are affecting a lot of players negatively and this is bannable.

This statement tells you the actual reason for the ban: His lack of communication with his team around what he was planning to do was the main problem. The statement talking about sightstone and smite and such is situated as a suggestion: play like that with a full group of friends because communication can't be an issue in that case (they should understand what you're doing from the start). Though in context, it's implied that if he were to actually communicate what his plan was with his team upfront, it also wouldn't be a problem.

If that's not enough, you can read Riot's full length explanation in the link that several other people have already provided here.

but that post from RIOT is after the fact they threaten to perma ban his account for playing the way he wanted... while still winning games and not trolling/feeding being toxic... he did not harm the community or its player base as people have stated and in the same video that this email is quoted shows him posting a paragraph in champ selection informing his team his plan/strategy of the game.

i would much rather play with a player like him win or lose then to ever play with a player like tyler 1 even if he is 20-0 on draven

ZielmannNov 17, 20161 votes

So...you didn't actually bother reading that post at all then. If you want the short version, they confirm that the ban was due to communication, and not the quote everybody takes out of context. They also do concede that it probably isn't permaban worthy, like the specialist had said. And they go on to indicate that the person has been communicating much better since the ban was lifted, so they shouldn't have any problems now anyhow.

oSEXYPLATYPUSoNov 17, 20161 votes

lol but the video shows him in champ select posting his strategy therefore communicating with his team

and RIOT can claim whatever they want... no one but riot knows why he was banned and then lifted

ZielmannNov 17, 20161 votes

It wasn't lifted. The 2 weeks expired. Again with the not actually reading the post...

I hate the current system, it isn't fully viewed correctly by riot, Yes, it helps with many things wrong, scripters, hackers, and even trolls, but to an extent they need to realize that some people actually want to enjoy the game. They have the game down to a 5 role, 3 lane game, and want everyone to follow a have fun gameplay, but some players may actually be onto something, singed support opened up bonuses and negatives just as nearly everything in league has a + and a -, but for some odd reason he is punished for having done something he has done thousands of times now, and he won 53% of his game ,which last I knew, was a decent Win % for the average joe? Wait? What? He has over 50% winrate doing it, and is being flagged for having helps more people win, then lose. It's not even his text/chat or how he acts, just a counter jg early that can come to be useful late, and give him a level 2 lead+ buff in his support role? Sure a whole wave could mean adc is being roughed up for that whole 30 seconds to 1 minute alone, but there is an fair amount of play going on through his role, I'd recheck before punishing someone doing something that is over 50% successful because there are people leaving midgame and rejoining right before end game, some rejoining and leaving through whole game on purpose, and Riot is worried about players having fun in their game by doing something that works? Following this Riot, tons of thousands of people do off builds and side builds, but questionably how does having not having a Sightstone add onto the ban? I've done support roles and haven't build Sightstone..Please answer to how him playing the game his way, have him getting banned. I mean what if there are 4 trolls a solo queue players gets put up with, and they all report him for not cooperating with team and bad gameplay, because they want to? If that happened enough to someone you wouldn't check close enough and hit him with the banhammer more then likely. Just please think a bit more on these cases and how it affects and puts a whole different mindset on the community. Singed item 2049
