Chat restrictions: How are the game reports re-evaluated? Can I review my reported chat history?

I'm currently on 160 games chat restriction, and have probably finished 300+ in total. Now, since I really want that season reward I've decided to behave well. (Have decided ever since I got 60 games restrict, but I suppose I didn't improve too well?). However, couple days ago, just as I start reducing the fresh number of chat-restricted games, I got like 5 reports in a row. I would admit I exploded in one game, but for the rest 4 I have no clue what I did or say wrong (didn't even "feed" or lose). I asked my duo partner what I said was offensive, he hesitated and replied with "Well you ever heard that if you have nothing nice to say, don't say it?", which is kinda sad. There have also been soooooo many games that my teammates kept saying "this guy so mad so toxic gonna report" and when I asked them what I said wrong they gave me no reply, but reported me anyway. Since these reports mostly came from ranked I think it is safe to assume that people in low platinum just get offended too easily. Fact is my silver account has never been reported and my other platinum account has never been chat restricted untill it fell from p1 to p3 and below. Maybe it was cause of my mentality? Which comes to my question, is it possible to review those chat history that I got reported for? I had been banned before for toxicity and the email notification included the tribunal case review link, which I really much appreciated cause I got to read my own words objectively and recognize what I did wrong, and I didn't get banned or reported since then, untill this year. The new chat restriction system is nice intention and all, but considering my recent reported rate has been so amazingly high I can feel another incoming 160+ games restricted after I finish my current restricted games, and that really worries me. I've read posts regarding to how game reports evaluation refreshes itself everytime one receives new number of chat restrictions, and I'm concerned about how they are re-evaluated cause I really don't want more restriction when I don't deserve them. (If I do though, that's another story, but who's there to judge?)

my bro is on a 262 game chat restrict atm and has pretty much been perma restricted since march/april. it started at 30, 40, 40,75,109, and 262. Riot doesn't care and im sure when they "look it over" its nothing more than a 2s glance and an insta-punish.

I agree with op. My point of view is different though. If I am in a game the only time I say something in chat is if I am trying to promote teamwork ( lets do dragon or group top and push) That is it. The problem is if some troll or rager on your team isnt doing well and you say something like this they get mad at you and something like F$%K you noob we cant do dragon. This makes everyone mad and most people would just ignore him but not me. I respond and let him know that he is being toxic and not helping the team win. Usually I end up muting them and reporting them after the game. But they will ALWAYS report you back. Never fails they will report everyone on the team if they arent sure who it was. So when I get chat restricted and I've never cussed someone out or said racist remarks like I see I can only assume I'm getting restricted for trying to convince these trolls to stop flaming. With out any human interaction involved in these auto bans people are just getting chat restricted and ranked bans left and right because they reported a troll and got reported back. Back in the tribunal players could see that the person that reported me was actually the one flaming and I was just trying to get them to stop and I would get pardoned. Their is no pardon with this auto system. You are automatically guilty as soon as the troll reports you back.

TL:DR getting reported for reporting a flamer gets you chat restricted and ranked ban, its a broken automated system with no human interaction involved. Bring back tribunal
