Context: So It's been a rough week for me, someone I knew commited suicide and I haven't seen my GF in two weeks I've been feeling really down lately. But anyway I've stopped being salty and flaming for 3 months now but last game when 2 premades flamed me for no reason and told me I was worthless I just snapped and called one of them bad and the other one a noob (that was really all I said to them) anyway they told me they were going to report me and that I will get banned for sure with 2 reports. Am I going to get banned for this one game of toxicity and if so how long after the report will you ban me as I hope I still get to have my season rewards :/ I'm just really worried I quess because I've been working so hard to reach gold.

Are you banned now? If not, that game didn't ban you and you'll be fine as long as you don't snap again too often. If you haven't previously been punished the first step in cases of mild toxicity would usually be a chat ban anyway.

Also, the number of reports in a game means nothing. The system only cares if you were reported AT ALL, and then it checks the behavior the same way whether you had 1 report or 9.

if you're not banned by now you probably won't be for that game. also 1 report is just as strong as 2 or 9.

Just mute people if you can man, I know sometimes emotions run high if you get tough real life, if some monger starts calling you names just turn them off asap so you don't snap and ruin anything on your account. I've been there before, after my first deployment to Afghanistan I had some emotional issues, took them out in game and got banned (thankfully it was a smurf account) but still it was my fault and regardless of the terrible hardships of life I still paid for it. Don't let tha happen to you :) I play real nice normally and have honor 5 on this account and my plat smurf. But I too have snapped. I'd like to save people from my mistake if I ever can
