Dear punished players, stop using the following excuses:

in my country, shit-talking is okay there & no one gets hurt listening to it

Well guess what? This isn't Russia. You're in NA, no one gives a shit about how your home country rolls. You want to play our game, you go by OUR rules. Don't pull a "big boy" crap on us.

I have Freedom of Speech, so I should have the rights to talk crap.

This type of thing will never apply here. When you joined League, you agreed to the Terms & Conditions where Riot has the rights to terminate your account should it ever broke the Summoner's Code.

you should have looked at the other guy's chat logs as well.

The punishment you received was done by you only. If you see someone being a toxic douchebag, you mute & report, not join in the fray like an idiot, making yourself nothing different to him.

I have multiple accounts, so I don't give a shit if I got punished on this one.

Yet, you still cared to make a thread about it. Irony much?

I spent thousands of dollars on this account, and they still dare to ban me.

You paid for Riot's merchandise, not a "Ban-Immunity" account status. Paying or not has absolutely nothing to do with your punishment. And don't think that your money was used as a bribe to assist you in avoiding all the reports gone to you thanks to your toxic behavior.

Why am I punished for defending myself?

You defend yourself by mute & reporting him, not talk crap back at him. If you do the latter instead, congratulations, you've made yourself nothing different to the toxic guy.

When I said "u useless trash", it was meant for my teammates who kept on feeding, and when I said "ff @ 20", it was because I got ganked once & my jungler refuse to help me, and when I said "kys", I meant tha- "

NO NO, we don't want to read that. We don't EVER want to read those text between chat logs which are seen as excuses. Only the things you wrote in the chat logs itself are what matters which procced your punishment.

No need to give such long paragraphs of why you wrote those unnecessary words. You either complained & whine at your teammates out of frustration, or wanted to taunt your enemies like "gg ez" for your own fun. That's it.

Report system is broken, and my ban is proof.

Yeah, as if you "never" received those chat restrictions & 14 days suspensions before as your 2nd warning.

Take this solid advice from Kled: "Could you just stop bitchin' for one minute!?"

It would be hella ironic if he was an actual Kled main.

You should probably say that they agreed to the rules that RIOT laid out. RIOT made the rules and they broke the rules.

At least instead of saying this is NA.

BeatzBoyFTW2 votes

I'll probably save that for the FoS excuse. I was saying the NA part was because they think they can do w/e they want like what they did in their hometown, as if they own the place in every place they go. Look at China tourists for example :p

Wait, why am I downvoted for this one?

Assumes everyone lives in NA

Meanwhile in EU everyone curses one another in their own language in a so called attempt of communication and creates a chat so diverse it can be considered part of the Amazon jungle.

I expected to see a reasonable well written post. First sentence is a xenophobic self-aggrandising rant.

Care to elaborate?

Are you saying that it's okay to carry their bad habits to other places, just because it is considered a normal thing in their own country?

Tyto Mors1 votes

depends on what the habits are, but if its something like talking excessive amounts of shit, then sure.

"stop being so sensitive!! everyone talks shit here"

getting tired of hearing this whenever someone gets called out for their shitty attitude, the idea that flaming is not only acceptable but is to be expected in this game is complete cancer.

My favorite one is "my Brother was playing" ok then we Ban you for accountsharing instead

Tyto Mors1 votes

wow, ur a dick. there are a number of good reasons why someone would let there brother play, and some reasons like the brother knowing your passwords and playing without your consent.

PaladinNO1 votes

There is a number of good reasons why someone would let their brother play...

FTFY

Not really. Not when reading through the EULA, which everyone has to press Accept on to even play at all.

Basically, an account belong the one who made, and ONLY that person. And it is that person's responsibility to keep the login information secured, and failure to do so is reason enough for a permanent ban. That means NO account sharing, under any circumstance. Not my words - just rephrasing what the rules say.

Tyto Mors1 votes

guessing you never grew up with an older/younger sibling who also had an interest in games. letting your sibling try the game out on your account before making their own, or simply trying an champ that isnt on free rotation. i know that account sharing goes against the agreement, but come on, something as small as letting your brother play a game or two can't be that fucking bad. if they play a ranked game they'll probably also ruin it for the other 4 players on their team, hes still fucking up the ranking of that account, and probably won't be allowed to play again at all.

PaladinNO1 votes

you never grew up with an older/younger sibling

Fortunately, I didn't.

like the brother knowing your passwords and playing without your consent.

I presume you do, though - and have let said brother play on your account. Only AI games then, I hope.

2 things: Win-key + L Proper passwords

If anyone did manage to guess my password for this game, they can have the account, as they'd then deserve it. Example of the kind of passwords I use (no joke):

?:18lXC^v-3#:&4yqS#d

Tyto Mors1 votes

actually im not, im the smaller and annoying brother. i would never play ranked on any game tho, normals only, but for league, i came from play DotA and HoN, so i knew basics of mobas.

ya, my brothers passwords are nothing like that. generally words and numbers. i know must of them and can cycle through the combinations. i dont even use passwords like that even tho i should. mind sharing with me how i can even save those passwords without it being some easily opened doc.

PaladinNO1 votes

mind sharing with me how i can even save those passwords without it being some easily opened doc.

In a word: encryption.

But then I do have a well-fed paranoia towards internet security. As well as being a nerd. We tend to overdo things. Simplest way: use a regular .txt or .doc document, encrypt or password protect it, write down that single password (something not obvious) and keep that note on your person or in a secure place. NO CELLPHONES!! Physically write it down, and KEEP THE NOTE SAFE!

Off-line storage is another way, but I've found having to connect an external HDD every time I want to access something is a bit too much of a hassle. Though a dedicated thumbdrive is an option - they're cheap AF these days. Though be aware that flash- based storage can be unreliable. Shit does happen after all, no matter what a warranty might say - nigh impossible to recover data from flash-memory too - so again, back to the physical note.

Tyto Mors1 votes

do you create a new doc for each password or no? and what do you think about having copy of that doc/docs on an usb flash drive if your someone who doesnt play at the same location.

EDIT: cuz thats my prob

PaladinNO1 votes

One document, with tight security on that single file. Don't wanna overcomplicate it. You'd want a copy of it on a secondary device anyway, for safety purposes - if your primary device fails, you'd lose access to all you have. Best not take that chance.

Personally, I keep said document on my PCs (laptop + desktop), deep inside a folder chain, plus an infrequently updated backup of it on an offline, external HDD.

Tyto Mors1 votes

ahh, kk thanks. good talking to you, have a good day.

There is another one you can add:

I paid a lot of money on this game.

BläckLotus2 votes

you see,when some people bought skins before season 5 and perma banning for flaming wasnt a thing back then,so like i said on my own comment i can sympathise with these people.The new punishment system was introduced in season 5 before that there were no perma bans only infinetely stacking chat restrictions,i remember reaching 4.5k.

PaladinNO4 votes

If anyone ever thought it was okay to flame and behave douchy against others, then it's not the system that is to blame. Even if it is socially accepted around their hometown or whatever, that's no excuse and not try to expand their mindset a bit and think it's perhaps not like that everywhere else.

I have no sympathy for those who verbally ripped the heart out of someone else and got banned for it. And I don't care how much money they spent on the game - if they thought they could buy their way out of a pinch, well...that says something about what their view on the world is.

I have seen people stating "the system punishes everyone" (claiming unfairness), but if that's the case, how come I haven't even gotten a chat restriction? I'd say behaviour comes down to education (the part the parents is responsible for included), age/maturity and what is generally speaking considered socially accepted in their local environment.

If they're lacking in one or more areas, they can consider it a life-lesson if their account gets banned. And if they don't learn after one perma-ban (in my opinion, they should be able to reflect on their behaviour even before it gets to that), then they got no place in this game. Period.

"They were toxic first." "I was only defending myself when I told him to kill himself." "He was worse than me." "Report system is broken, how did they not get banned too then?" "I spend $12,000,000,000, Riot shouldn't ban me because I'm a paying customer."

the freedom of speech is to prevent the goverment from fucking you up when you say something about them

it dosent mean taht you can get away with saying whatever you want on other games with rules

The one that drives me nuts is where they go on about how

Thing that was clearly against the terms of service and offended someone enough to report you Isn't a big deal and people should stop being weak and whiney about it and man up and get over getting swore it/called a racial epaphet/sexuallity insulted/told to kill themseleves.

I am Canadian (born and raised) and was raised with strong ethic and moral values...yet I let my Scottish/Irish heritage blood get the better of me more often than I would care to admit. The amount of people who have no sense of respect for another human being and only limit their brain cells to only consider someone's self-worth to be directly tied to their ability to play a video game, de-humanizing everyone else because they are so grossly addicted, basically makes me want to hurt people.

That...and if you consider anything longer than 4 or 5 words a paragraph and can't be bothered with reading comprehension, it's no surprise the education system has failed on most levels. I honestly believe that the average person nowadays hasn't picked up a single book for the value of self-education since either being forcefully pushed through to pass even though they should have been held back several years or dropping out to live the most lazy, mediocre lifestyle they can get away with using minimal effort to barely squeeze by in day-to-day situations.

And this is why I don't like to grumble about things too often: I'm sure I'm extremely biased and being this judgmental is extremely unhealthy so why should I bother with being annoyed by the "rabble", if you will, if I look down so poorly on those who refuse to even TRY to help themselves?

After all, I've been nailed with two 10-game chat restrictions in the past 6 months (albeit the only punishments I've ever received in 3+ years of playing, but it still looks quite terrible on my record).

So no one is perfect. Far from it.

when you spend 12 years of you life in school and another 4-5 in college reading a countless amount of books you start to grow a dislike for books,it takes some time for someone to grab a book after graduating.

Tyto Mors1 votes

i kinda agree, most educational books i look at make me want to burn them, as well as the books that are assigned in english-ish/french-ish classes. i only read one book in school that i actually enjoyed, but ill still pick up books for my own enjoyment, and thats whats gone in most people, the desire to read for your own entertainment.

What's wrong with saying "ff @ 20"?

BeatzBoyFTW1 votes

Majority of the players uses those words when the situation is not even in dire trouble. Those words already expressed that he wants his team to give up despite his teammates not having the same ideal situation with him.

How about this one, "it's just a game words can't hurt any one." best part is that it is partially true.
