Do I deserve a 14-day ban?

Hello, I was playing a game with my friend that I have known since I was in 3rd grade and knowing him we joke with each other a lot. I was playing Twitch ADC and he was playing Orianna mid. I was joking around with him and said some racist stuff about him being South American. I also had some debate with my Zyra support on if Zyra was a good pick or not. Some cuss words were thrown around as usual and I did use the occasional n-word but only to my friend. My question is, if someone says toxic stuff to a friend in team chat, if the friend is fine with it, should there be a huge penalty such as 14-day ban? Here are some examples of things I only said to my friend. "I will feed you shity monkey brains you South American %%%got dick licker", "Uninstall", "ggwp n*****". I understand that this can be perceived as toxic and racist but my question is, since I was not saying it to anyone random, rather to someone who knows me well, should I at least get chat restricted, not 14-day banned? Because my understanding is, if I said the same exact thing in a private message, should I still get punished? Does it only matter since it is in team chat? What do you think about this? Thank you, TSM Hummus

Don't say those things in a public channel. Say them out of game.

It's normal, expected, and good that you got a 14 day ban for saying those things. Don't do it again.

Yes you deserve the 14-day ban. The chat doesn't belong to just you two. Just because the target of your "jokes" is okay with it doesn't mean the other people on your team being forced to read it in team chat is okay with it. You are in a public space of 5 people, not 2.

Assuming your friend does not report you, you can say whatever you want and be as racist as you want in PRIVATE chat and no one would care. There no is bot that auto scan every single chat. No report = no punishment.

You get 14-day, skipping the chat restriction, because of the racism nature of your "jokes" (which you admitted to)

"haha I was just pranking my friend. I threatened him with a knife at school but I wasn't serious xDDD"

Why do people have this mentality?

You could have just said that stuff in like skype or discord and even text him. Saying racist stuff in any game is wrong to do. People can get banned even if they don't use swear words or racist words. So the chance I'm guessing raises when words like that are used.

Thank you all for the clarification. My question now is, do you believe that the reason I got 14-days automatically instead of chat restriction even though I did not int or do anything gameplay wise was because of what? I thought that you get a chat restriction first time and then after some other offenses you get 14-day banned. I was also honor level 4 and have never been reported before. I understand that I deserve some sort of punishment but why do you think no chat restriction?

is discord/teamspeak/skype not a good way to insult each other?

why do you have to do it in the chat?
