Permanently Banned for being Bronze V

Nils Sjoberg··10 votes·1,658 views

So I am a Bronze V player and I joined redditlfg1 and all day yesterday I was playing enjoying the team rewards but all of a sudden randomly the game disconnects and I got an email saying that my account has been permanently disabled for no reason, if you look at my game history you can see that i get assists, I get kills and I try my hardest not to feed, I had a few bad games but nothing that would constitute to a permanent ban I emailed riot support and they said that I got banned for intentional feeding or griefing which is not the case because I have done neither. and they referred me to this post http://forums.na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=4813730, I have only been playing since this past september and the games I were playing the other players were platinum and gold even one diamond. I do not understand what kind of system bans players just for being bad. Please help I have invested over 1000 hours and 1000$ in a short time in this game please can anyone refer me to someone who isn't an automated riot bot that can help me get my account back ? item 3070 item 3070 image of my game history email I was sentAlso attached a picture of lolking account as you can see I main Vlad and I am not horrible at him

btw just an update I got my account unbanned and I was not intentionally feeding just got reported for other things which did not constitute to a permanent ban anyway thank you for the comments and support and I am very happy to have my account back

You might have a case here, being bad is one thing but it isn't bannable. My suggestion to you, if you do get this overturned, is to start focusing on playing 2-3 champs only for awhile. Try and get proficient with them and come out of games with more kills than deaths a majority of the time.

Looking at that match history, you go negative more often than not, sometimes badly, which probably triggered this punishment.

Good luck.

It doesn't matter how much he dies if it wasn't intentional. Even Faker had a recent game in Solo Que where he went something like 2-12. Dying a lot isn't a reportable offense by itself. If you start walking in 1v5 multiple times with ample vision or go to their nexus turrets and die over and over, that's a different thing entirely.

I find it hard to believe that other Bronze players found his dying so problematic that they reported him for it to the point of it becoming an intentional feeding ban. Are you sure you didn't get mad some of those games and say "ok then I feed" or some nonsense and then start suiciding into the enemies?

The recent games I played the other players weren't bronze lowest was probably silver I never fed on purpose just out-skilled because the other players were all like gold, plat even diamond so I guess I should have just stuck to playing with bronze or unranked friends

Failure to change your behavior is "deliberately making the game harder to win". Whether you understand that or not, whether the player THINKS they're not dying on purpose or not. It's intentional feeding. You are wrong.

Some people can't be godlike lcs pros. Some people just don't have it in them to play games until they are near perfection. Some don't have that time. He isn't "wrong", he's not "deliberately" doing anything. Emile needs practice, that is all. Don't judge people so hard. :p Have a good day!

I'm of the mind that if you die 10+ times in most games you're intentionally feeding and that's not OK. Being bad's one thing, being completely unwilling to change your gameplay or learn to get better is another.

That being said, you might be the exception. Submit a support ticket by clicking support at the top of the page and enter as much information as you did here and be nice. Ask they review your case and explain how short a time you've been playing. It might get overturned, it might not.

That really depends on your role in the game. I generally take a JG or top tank and I expect to die if I don't stomp early because I will try to engage or peel for those that I believe will be able to carry. If the OP is doing the same but on less than optimal tanks it could give the results we are seeing.

As well as a JG I load up lolnexus as the game is loading if I see some one with his KDA I instantly mark them as gank and camp bait. There is no way hes going to have an easy time and I try to tilt players like him and kill them over and over. If hes top gank kill...go down sit in a bush wait for the tp and re-kill. Go back into my jg clear some and as soon as hes walked back up to lane re-gank. If that is what he is facing in B 5 and his JG and or team are not rotating to help (unlikely) then hes pretty much screwed!

Any give game 10 deaths = an item the enemy team wouldn't have cept you died + experience and objectives and cs and lost xp/cs/gold for your team. I've done a lot of math to figure it out and I really think 10 deaths is the cut off. Are there exceptions?? Sure. Is this the general rule? Yeah.

A 1/10/48 Support obviously isn't feeding. A 1/10/2 adc... definitely is feeding.

My Qualm with that many deaths isn't that the player is bad. It's that most of the time, they could have prevented 4 or more of those deaths. They could have stayed at tower, switched lanes, duo'd, forced team fighting by ganking bot 4v2. SOMETHING to change the cycle. But that isn't done. It's doing the same thing over and over expecting different results. It's insanity. I don't care that you died or are behind. but I'm 10/2 and can protect you. For example, IF I ask you to come top and duo with me and let them have mid cause they're so ahead that they're going to roam anyway. And instead of doing that... you run straight into mid, push the fed kat/fizz/killuin3secondsflatchamp while taking tower and minion hits... and then claim it's a real fight... I'm reporting you. And your team should as well. EVEN if you still think that you were doing the right thing and trying your hardest.

Then, you're making a false report and hopefully Riot eventually punishes people frequently making false reports. No one is obligated to listen to you whether you're right or not. Deaths are indeed often preventable and you are right that people can play very badly. However, it is called "INTENTIONAL" feeding not just "feeding", "stupidity", "being very bad", "not listening to me" etc. A player has to ACTUALLY try to die on purpose. Getting caught in similar ways etc. is NOT that.

I'm reporting you. And your team should as well. EVEN if you still think that you were doing the right thing and** trying your hardest.**

You're admitting that you're making a spite report out of anger/annoyance. You might hate having feeders on your team, everyone does, but it's unethical to constantly make false reports on them when it's not intentional. From the sound of it, you probably also type in chat to falsely report that player, likely making them play worse and lowering the chance of them listening to you.

RIOT specifically says actions "deliberately causing the game to be harder to win" are reportable. When a mid runs into tower and dies 4 times in a row, it's feeding REGARDLESS of whether they THINK it's intentional feeding.

I'm not making ANY spite report. Your taking this entirely wrong and I'm done... people like you never get it. Good luck in the future, you'll need it.

Running into a tower and dying to it 4x in a row is not what you were talking about.

If they run into a tower 4 times or run into the player they just died to 4 times. What's the difference? Running into that player is actually WORSE for the team and it is "Deliberately making the game harder to win". And what I meant by tower is diving 3 to 4 times chasing a kill they know they can't get from past experience.

At this point you seem to be trolling me and I won't be responding more.

Doesn't matter what you're of the mind of kid. If someone is trying it doesn't matter how many times they die they ARE NOT intentionally feeding.

Intentional feed is a very specific behavior.

You run down the lane or into the other team on purpose with the intent of dying in order to grief your own team.

That is THE ONLY THING you ever click that report for.

Little kids can't get this through their brains. So if you're one of those then I expect you to shit post a rebuttal, that I will ignore.

GOOD DAY SIR!

I'm not a little kid. You're very rude.

If you're running into your lane, dying 4-5 times doing the same thing, it's intentional. Whether the player lies about it to them self or others. By definition, it's intentional. Their actions "Deliberately cause the game to be harder to win" which IS reportable. That's RIOT's general rule, not mine. They chose to run into a 1v2 5 times in a row and go 0/5 before the 8 minute mark (like I just had a teemo do), that's intentionally feeding. Literally ran to lane, pushed through minions and into a 1v2 (starting at level 1 when they were level 2 already) and continued doing it every time he went back to lane. It doesn't matter that I was adc and worked my ass off to go 9/2/12, giving him kills to the point that people thought he wasn't that bad. He was intentionally feeding and griefing and I'm good enough in some games to be able to carry that.

You think that a troll can't mask intentional feeding as their lane partner is bad? It's not true. You think they can't mask it as "omg... i can't believe i got killed for the 8th time doing the same thing over and over... what a noob I am..."

See through the bullshit, open your eyes. It's obvious you have a lot to learn about human behavior.

I SAID GOOD DAY!!!

Go read my post again little kid. You're delusional and can't understand the meaning of intentional feeding.

You're not even talking about the same thing anymore kiddo, you changed your argument from someone who is trying to someone who is an actual troll and is truly intentionally feeding but lying in chat and saying that their trying. Those are 2 DIFFERENT THINGS MY BOY!

Good luck in life, you'll need it XD

Tacking on to what RPO said, definitely start watching some videos or popular streamers who may play the champions you're interested in focusing on. It will help a TON.

Thank you all for the feedback, I do watch pros play often and try to learn. My best friend is Gold 1 and I usually play with him. Also I don't ever go in normals and choose a champ that i haven't played in a bot game before just so I don't feed if I do get this rescinded I will play more bot games I guess

sorry to hear this happened to you. have to work on dying less and hoping you get your account back if this is really the case.

Everyone claims they been banned for no reason when infact to get banned you have to have multiple strikes on your account. So i find it hard to think you are innocent.

Blitzidious2 votes

Emile, best thing for me to tell you is that you'll learn the most from your mistakes than searching up a video like "how to git gud". Trial and error, and paying attention to what you are doing wrong, will get you farther than any tutorial or "flawless build". Try to learn a small amount of champions at a time, at most, three. Actively avoid ranked until you are confident in the champions you've learned, and you believe you've seen and improved on your major mistakes. Four things I can tell you, that are possibly the most important tips I can give you, are as follows: Self Control(When and when not to engage, when to just focus on csing, or push an advantage, but not going overboard), Awareness(listening for pings, and immediately checking where teammates are pinging, watching where enemies are on the map, frequently checking if your wards have spotted anyone or if they are down), and lastly, Champion and self boundaries.(What your champion can and cannot do, what you yourself are incapable of, and how you can improve upon these things. Remember this, you can break your boundaries, but not your champions, they always have limits. You don't, as long as you strive to improve.) All of these things are as equally important, and all can be improved upon by paying attention to your mistakes, finding your limits, and expanding them. Though the first part of this long post states otherwise, you should search up videos to find what else you need to improve on, and what you can do to take a step forward in doing so.

Good luck, Summoner. May good games be blessed upon you. Sincerely, Da waffle.

What's rude is falsely making marks against people's accounts that can add up to them being banned and losing the accounts they may have poured 100s or 1000s of dollars into.

Unless you truly suspect it is a troll who wants to lose the game on purpose don't do it.

I think the same exact thing may have happened to my account. I don't intentionally feed but I am sometimes accused of it when I have bad games. I too was bronze V. I still enjoy the game but the game has turned into a report fest where anyone having a bad game will get chain reported by other salty players. Anyway I'm surprised they reversed it, what steps did you take to make that happen? I never even got an email explaining why I was banned.

Nils Sjoberg2 votes

I just emailed support then they stated a reason (automated bot response), then upon further inquiry they transferred my case to a beaviour specialist which took about 3 days for a response but it was actually worth it because it was a real person who reviewed my account and decided if whether anything I did or did not do was worthy of a permanent ban.
