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!?"

Yet Riot instead employs THIS guy.

Good move, rito

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.

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.

Stay classy NA

"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

There is another one you can add:

I paid a lot of money on this game.

"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

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

Narvuntien10/16/2016, 5:41:13 AM1 votes

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.

Are there really Russians playing on NA server? I made this account with only purpose to post on old forum, and playing with 230 ping back in 2011 wasn't nice at all.

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.

Troll: "Freedom of speech lets me say whatever I want."

Me: "Correct, which gives ME the right to tell you to** SHUT UP**!"

Updated my thread, wasn't expecting this much support from you guys. Thanks for reading [slayer-jinx-catface]

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