Got tempbanned for two words.

While it's just a 14 day suspension and I can deal with it, I think it's quite stupid that I got temp banned for literally two words (Words from Player Support), even though I was getting flamed all game by my bot lane, I only said these two words because my ms was hitting 3000-7000 and she kept flaming me.

I've never been toxic before on this account, not to mention my reform card (or whatever) is literally just one game, I didn't even receive a chat restriction or a warning saying I'm toxic, I just got a straight up temp ban, I think you should at least warn players before you out right temp ban them.

You used both ableist and racist slurs against people. That is immature locker room talk that does not belong in League, or even in any sort of mature discourse that occurs in real life. The fact that you thought that was acceptable, and are mad that you're being punished for it, shows you are not reformed and do not deserve the ban lifted.

While these words may seem fun, cool, or whatever to you, you must remember that there are actual people in this world with autism spectrum disorders. Many of them are highly functioning enough to participate in society as the rest of us, but many of them are unable to function at a level that doesn't draw attention to themselves. These people are labelled many things from weird to loser to retarded, but the fact is they just have a disorder that they can't control. The fact that you're going beyond these words with normally negative connotations to use the word "autist" as an insult to someone shows that you couldn't give a flying fuck about anyone else's feelings other than your own.

The fact you go on to use a word that is considered offensive even by many black people is also wrong. Even black people who consider its use acceptable generally agree that it's only acceptable in limited casual social situations between two good friends. It is not a word to be thrown about lightly, especially given the fact that that word was used for over 200 years as a manner of literally relegating an entire race to a lower class of society, even to the point of animals..

Bottom line: You shouldn't need a warning that this behavior is not just utterly unacceptable, but incredibly immature, and lastly despicable for any member of society. Much less someone playing an online competitive game with absolute strangers.

lol.

The fact your only response to a comment outlining why your behavior is unacceptable is "lol" shows both that you don't consider it wrong (still, even after having it explained as to a 5 year old), nor do you have any intent of reforming.

I would be careful with your comments here as there have been cases where Rioters perusing the boards have found it fit to extend someone's ban to a permanent ban due to their lack of remorse, lack of intent to reform, and all around bad attitude.

You came to the boards looking for feedback. You are getting feedback, and responding to it by claiming everyone else except you is wrong. Maybe instead take the feedback and try and improve.

Or just get permanently banned next time. I don't particularly care.

Also, I don't mind being permabanned, stops me from spending money, I spent $80 on this new account lol, if they ban me, they lose a customer and somebody who actually is helpful (If you look at my past game chat logs, I've helped multiple people and invited new players to add me so that I can help), but because one bad game I got temp banned, without warning and without receiving a chat restriction.

SjB7wq5vm51 votes

Not my only account either, I could care less, but if I do get permabanned, I'ma just go onto another MOBA or game, doesn't matter to me.

Exactly what riot and we want, don't think you can get any pressure on riot with that sentences. If you are perma banned, they don't want you in their game.

Which is what they want. They don't want your money.

SjB7wq5vm51 votes

This is already over. No need to comment.

SjB7wq5vm51 votes

lol. You're making way too big of a deal about it, it's the internet, people will use words however which way they want, no matter how impactful it is, did I actually insult anyone with autism? No, did I purposely say %%%%% because I thought it would offend everyone that's black in the whole entire world? No.

It's two words, lighten up buttercup, I wonder if you write paragraphs upon paragraphs everytime you see someone being toxic in your game.

Chermorg3 votes

No, actually, I type "/mute @(champname)" and play on in bliss without getting banned :)

But if you want to keep getting banned, keep being rude to people here. As I state above, don't be surprised to find a Rioter swing by and upgrade you to a permanent ban with your attitude and lack of reform.

SjB7wq5vm51 votes

If I get permabanned for two words and an attitude OVER two words, than I should probably just quit anyways.

This, this is the problem i have with internet gaming. Behind the shield of anonymity, people lose all sense of manners. Just because you do not know them personally does not give you the right to behave like an ignorant toddler.

SjB7wq5vm51 votes

I have manners, but I think for one bad game under heat and stress, I should be given a warning and chat restriction, I'm a nice guy, I've helped people in the past, new players and people with questions, I just want to be given a different punishment because I don't deserve a ban in my opinion.

Lyndris4 votes

I disagree, if someone starts hassling me about being (affliction removed) i am kicking them out of my house or getting someone else to handle them. I've been playing since s3 never had a single chat restriction. So, to sum up, find other ways of venting.

SjB7wq5vm51 votes

That's you, people treat things differently, I was under heat, stressed, and it was a bad game, I never received warning or a chat restriction saying "Everyone has a bad game" like it normally should, two words got me banned and I think it's quite stupid honestly because people who are way more toxic get warnings, but I don't? For two words?

Lyndris4 votes

I have a feeling you aren't being entirely truthful, but that doesn't matter. Riot rarely repeals bans, anyway, So i think I am just going to drop it.

SjB7wq5vm51 votes

Not being entirely truthful? Look at the prntscr above, it's literally two words and it says that I was punished for those two words.

Lyndris2 votes

I've never been toxic before on this account

Is what i was referring to. But it does not really matter, riot has a zero tolerance towards hate speech. So i am dropping it, ta-ta.

Escheton5 votes

Yes, racial slurs fall under hate speech. And they have a 0 tolerence thing going for that. And calling people autists isn't exactly mild either. Say other words.

I get that when you don't say much you want the little things you do say in defense to have impact. Just...don't go for negative impact like that.

If people flame you while you have massive ms and can't help it. Just breath and think 'fuck em, they just venting" and play on.

%%%%% is hardly a racial slur, it's debatable HEAVILY, they treat it that way, but most people don't see it that way.

Not to mention out of the several years I've played this, I've always received a chat restriction or warning from a report or something, but I literally received nothing but this smack in the face, I could say other words, but it was literally TWO WORDS, when other people go on full paragraphs of extreme toxicity and get away with it, when I don't.

I should get a chat restriction, not a ban, this is not suspension or ban worthy, in comparison to the community and to those that actually get punished, this is hardly anything, I think it's stupid not to at least warn a player that they're being toxic, not to mention chat restrictions ARE a thing for toxicity in chat, before the ban hammer is put down.

I think your view of "most people" is heavily influenced by your close personal social circle. While the term has been reclaimed to some extend and is even a term of endearment in some circles. It does not change what the word means and signifies. And as such how everyone else (most people) view use of the term outside close personal spaces. This game is a public forum. With strict guidelines. Don't forget that.

SjB7wq5vm51 votes

Either way, I don't think I should have been hit with a ban hammer just by two words, when I could have received a chat restriction for something chat related.

Marshbouy3 votes

Violate the rules, you get banned.

SjB7wq5vm51 votes

With two words? Even though multiple more say MUCH MORE, and are much more toxic than I was, and get away with it? That's unfair, I also want to say that I never even received a warning nor a chat restriction on this account, I think I should receive at least a warning before being hit with the ban hammer.

BigBellBrute2 votes

Given the two words, you should be thanking your lucky stars you weren't permabanned and that it is just temporary. But given your behavior on this thread, maybe they will make it a permaban. If they do good riddance.

Jo0o2 votes

Bans for hate speech are standard. It's common knowledge. You shouldn't have done that.

... I'm not really sure why this thread is two pages, that's really all there is to that.

UnboundHades1 votes

basically with my experience riot only cares to ban people for words they personally dont like while if someone is toxic as hell but it doesnt offend riot then they dont give a fuck

SjB7wq5vm51 votes

I wouldn't of minded being punished, but not this way, I would have rather wanted a chat restriction for something CHAT related, not to mention it being TWO WORDS.

SjB7wq5vm51 votes

Well, whatever, I'll just accept my punishment.
