who decides who is mmr boosting and whats the criteria? how did i just get slapped with a 2 week ban for signing in on a different computer?

They judge bans off of IP's that vary an extremely far distance but have log-ins of each within minutes/hours that are impossible by the same person.
Nice try though. I've signed into league in multiple places with no issues.
haha busted booster.
-1 but not for boosting, but for being caught. tut tut.
Wait, you can get ban from playing different computers? Wat? But I played sometimes with my own laptop & cybers, but I'm still fine.
point is. have u considered perhaps the system is just not flawless instead of me boosting an account i play maybe 4 times a month? but still. i can see the community is still immature and douchey. glad i quit this.
It's in the terms of service about using the FREE software...read it.
I constantly log on between 2 different places (Home and workplace) without issues, for over a year now.
Can't really sympathize with you.
Even if you play in two cities that are hours apart that won't get you banned. I have played games at my house and my mom's and never had a problem. They look for patterns (or the lack of) and judge based on that.
For example: if you are the only one using your account and you routinely play at each of your parents house you will have an established pattern and not receive a ban.
However, if your account is logged on in multiple places in a short timeframe where the distance is greater than could feasibly be traveled (you can determine rough location from ip) and/or your account is being logged multiple places erratically then it's suspicious and they will investigate.
Also, if your account is being logged by an IP address regularly associated with other accounts that aren't played at your normal IP then they know it is likely not you playing and will again investigate. It's all really easy to track and you shouldn't be surprised if you get a ban for account sharing or boosting. If you weren't you would have contacted support to resolve the issue instead of complaining on the forums.
