Here is the appropriate tried and true method of dealing with the issue.

Step 1 - Post your complaint on the Forums and plead your innocence. Complain about Riot's automatic response emails. Then demand that Riot prove your wrongdoing.

Step 2 - Sit back and grab some popcorn as you watch people argue about Riots System and whether or not OP is lying. Occasionally chime in when someone has a comment that you particularly agree with and use it as an opportunity to further complain about Riot.

Step 3 - If your discussion has garnered a big enough following, turn around and bend over as you prepare for the from Lyte.

On a side note, I have seen a lot of posts like these where people complain about injustice and demand that Riot provide proof. Riot has already stated that they will not give away methods of detecting and banning players who misuse the game, so I am not sure why people continue to take that route. Also, I almost never see an instance where Riot was actually wrong, and the few times I have seen it they were quick to remove the ban. Riot is not some evil oppressor waiting ban everyone. They do make some mistakes, but in these circumstances it definitely seems few and far between.

well there are people saying they were banned for elo boosting then you go into their ranked stats and they have a 50% winrate and it's like how were they boosted, and/or how would they be good enough to be a booster? (50% winrate in plat does not qualify you to boost)

They have been wrong. i remember an incident with an Akali player basically arguing with themselves , calling themselves bad, etc, but you are right in that if they do find a wrongfully ban person they are quick to resolve the issue. I mean ill admit they need to have some way to explain (not in full detail) why they were ban. In my opinion it does seem fishy when your only means of explaining is "we just know". But then again if there is one consistent thing i have seen of the recent MMR bans, is that a lot of the people who were ban shared one thing in common and that having someone else on their account. Its in the rules that you arent allowed to share your account with anyone. This is a free game so anyone can make an account to try out the game. if they like it theyll continue to play on their own account, if not then they can deactivate the account, or just not play it anymore. There is zero reasoning as to why anyone should be on your account!

This is why its hard to actually see if people are telling the truth or not. Loads of people lie everyday and this is the same thing. People will lie just because they want their account back, or because they spent money on this game which in their opinion means they can break any rules without any sort of punishment, etc. its just annoying to see especially since majority of the time its on the forum it does nothing but clog it up. just like that whole fiasco with Dunkey. its annoying and repetitive.
