Hi, I was recently suspended for 14 days due to rude and negative attitude/comments.

I definitely deserve a punishment as I was indeed extremely toxic with racial slurs and even using "kys". But there was no malicious intent behind these words, I was never angry or upset at people. To me it was all a joke, I was unaware of how I was affecting other people. This was the first ever punishment on my account of 5 years. I am not trying to get my punishment lifted with this. I'm very sorry for my actions.

I just wanted to voice that I feel skipping levels of punishment isn't a good way to escalate things in an attempt to help players change their behaviour. I believe players should always receive the in-game chat restriction first before any kind of suspension is given.

Thank you for your time.

Could you please post your chat logs? That might help us understand and explain why you got an escalated ban.

It was a joke...... Nobody can read sarcasm, if you type it assume it is taken 100% as a literal comment

Telling someone to kys kinda skips the whole we need you to stop talking bit.....

While for you, you say there was no malicious intent and that it was in jest, for many people, it is not a joke when they say these sorts of things. They come into games, and actively spread significant amounts of racism, homophobia and other forms of hate speech. Having a strict policy is one way that Riot can protect the rest of the players from being forced to play with people like that. The millions of players who have no problems following the Code of Conduct shouldn't be forced to endure games with racist individuals spewing venom. And unfortunately, Riot, and the other people in your games, have no way of differentiating jokes from bigotry.
