Account suspended on no grounds.

So, I've been playing League of Legends for the past 6 and a half years. I've played throughout every season out there, and have a reward for everyone of them. Today , 27th of October 2016, I tried logging into my account only to find it being suspended for 2 weeks. Obviously I was shocked, as I generally don't talk to people in game, so It must have been a mistake, right? Well apparently not.

I received an e-mail, saying that I am suspended for MMRboosting. At first I didn't realize what that means, but after I read the whole email I realized that it's because I've logged in from a different location than my "usual" one. As a punishment not only am I left with 2 days of the season to get to Platinum, but they are also taking away my rewards from all the previous season AND I will not receive any reward for this season.

Let's make it clear, I'm a gold 1, i've been gold 1 for the last 2 months, struggling to get into Plat. I've been in Gold the whole season (except placement but that was quickly changed), you know how it is " have time" ,and before you know it it's September and you have 2 months to get your desired rating. I honestly feel that it's unfair of them to take away my rewards for the previous years, specially my Victorious Janna skin. This skin made me want to get gold rating in Season 2. It was the reason i got into the competitive side of the game. I saw it and thought "i want this", and I got it. 4 Seasons (almost 5 now) ago.

The reasoning of Riot for me using MMR boost is based on the fact that I've logged in from another country. Now I live in Europe, yes I know wtf am I doing in North American servers, but I like it here, I started here, I have a lot of friends from America and Canada that I play with and I've stayed. I travel a lot, very often outside the country, and I don't have a laptop, so I play from somebody else's computer. It has NEVER been an issue. When I go back home, or I visit a friend, or I travel outside the country, I login from their computer, their IP address and their location, but it hasn't been an issue.For 6 and a half years I've never been reported, not once for trolling, spamming, being toxic, unsportsmanlike behavior or negative attitude. I've received Riot's gifts for being a "model summoner" around the Christmas holidays, but all of a sudden I am MMR boosting? Obviously I have yet to receive a reply from Riot, which no-doubt would be little to no reasoning from their part, when I asked for evidence(judging from my past experiences with Support ), but I want to know if anyone else has gone through such a thing. Has anyone else experience such a ban ? What else can I do?

You definitely were boosting and you recently changed your account name.

Curtsy of Op.GG,

http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=Anirie

Lets review. Looks like your most played champions are supports and ADC's. Your Performance on them are no were close to the KDA's and win percentage of NIdalee, Ahri and Leblanc. Firstly, You never play jungle, and Mid. But they happen to be your most successful, It doens't take rocket science to see your account was boosted.

This is your average from the last twenty games.

2.4 / 6.2 / 13.9 Average 2.63:1 KDA (Kill Participation 50%)

Your KP, and KDA for the champions i listed are way above this stat. You boosted your account, got caught and now try to play the I've had this account opened for ever game. Honestly what did you expect to get from posting on the forums? People of your quality I have little to no sympathy for. Enjoy your ban, it is well earned.

Not to menition the people you normally Dou with, aren't in the games were the Leblanc was played. I can't see the other games, because you change your account name. You can attempt to hide the evidence from us, but riot will see everything and knows to justify this ban based of evidence I've listed and some I can't see.

They understand that people play from different locations due to travel (or are using IP changers) and don't ban just based on that, which you can read more about here; https://support.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/articles/204168430-MMR-Boosting-Detection

They'll get to your ticket as soon as they can, and try not to bump it unless you have to with necessary information, because bumping puts it at the back of the queue again. I would recommend providing them with a list of all the places you played from, preferably with specific IP's.

88% winrate on LeBlanc in Season 6, but never played LB once in Season 5? http://24.media.tumblr.com/a10df1f34e51d207011950e4699f2d22/tumblr_n1xp29XGtP1rlb6iho1_400.gif

This does not get you banned for boosting. Boosting is when you allow somebody else to play on your account. The specific machine or location you log in from is pretty much irrelevant.

If you have not shared your account with anybody, you should go through your match history to see if there are any games you don't recognize. Perhaps the account was compromised. Either way, the next step is to submit a support ticket and explain the situation, and then wait for a response.

Sounds like a relative line of bull shit, if I were in that situation...I'd lose my cool. Hey but in two weeks they might fix your ticket and leave you a day or two to complete your conquest. Lol, dicks man. item 3649 item 3070
