Is my chat log truly 14-days ban worthy?

Hey guys (and also Lyte), so I have just been suspended for 14 days due to toxic behavior. In my email, this chat log was sent to me.

Long story short, I am smurfing on this account (which I believe is allowed on Riot's ToS) and I was carrying really hard. Yes, I started carrying and got cocky, but keep in mind this is to my own teammates. I told them I can assure them we will win, because I will carry this game. However one of my teammates Ashe asked me what rank my main is. I told him Plat Division.

Suddenly he started proceeding to trash talk, saying how he will be plat in a few months (he is only level 20ish). I suddenly got defensive, explaining how it took me 4 years to get it through hard work (not the best I know). He then began to say how I am bad and he is good because he is getting 180 CS at 20 min.

Then, if you look at my log, I started trolling him about how he must be diamond if he's so good. Then HE BEGINS TALKING IN ALL CHAT telling the other team how my life is sad playing league for 4 years and still only plat. I then said I go to an Ivy League University and have quite a bit of money, which means my life is quite well, and not sad at all.

He then convinced everyone on the other team that I am showing off my wealth, and everyone began trashtalking me saying "money must be everything to life right? You're sad, truly sad." After the game I think like at least 6 players reported me just for trollz and I immediately got banned. Keep in mind that prior to this game I've played exclusively ARAM and haven't talked much at all (bring those chat logs up too if you don't believe me).

I understand my tone of voice may be condescending or mean, but I don't think what I've said is 14-days ban worthy. From what I've seen, people have been banned when they say stuff like "go kill yourself, youre so noob, fking uninstall" etc. But all I was trying to do was explain why I don't have a sad life. Yes, I agree that showing off is not a good attitude, but I became very defensive when this player decided to trash talk me first.

The most I deserve is a warning for offensive behavior, or even a chat restriction. This is my first offense ever, and I don't see why one game leads to an immediate 14 day ban. I'm not asking to revert this ban, but I just question the "new automated system."

Please review my case and post here about your opinions. Thank you all for reading.

Yes.

You weren't terribly toxic, but you kept going.

And going.

And going.

It adds up. Take the 14 day vacation and try to not insult others regardless of how bad you think they are.

Assuming this is the first offense, yeah, I do think 14-day ban is a little harsh for that. Definitely deserves a warning or maybe a shorter ban, though.

Also remember that chat logs are merely a sample.

Of course, it's not my opinion that matters.

From that log you most definantly did not deserve that punishment.

Also can I haz monies ?

Yes, I certainly wouldn't want to be in a game with someone who gloats and flames like you do.

Negative, yes. Deserving 14 days ban? Not remotely close.

Personally I've seen much worse and the best was 500 games long chat restriction.

Based off of these logs alone, I don't think you deserved a 14-day ban. Here's the thing, though. You weren't punished based solely on that game. Punishments are because of multiple games, not just one. The current system only sends you the chat logs of the most recent game that triggered your punishment, but you most likely showed some sort of negative behavior in multiple games.

Yup, hope this will teach you how to shut the fuck up, stop yapping and criticizing people when no one asked for it.

Nope, not ban-worthy as i see.
