I got banned

http://postimg.org/image/hiykgdrzv/ I was just playing a game, everything was going really well, typical calm adc game, and then I started to tilt really hard.

We had an afk for several minutes, I got ganked a lot, watch the replay if you'd like to see the horror that is Guinsoo Irelia, and eventually I got to the point of being 1/7/1

Then, I went to farm in their base when they had super minions, died, and bought an AP build. Game ended 1/10/1.

Immediately, and I mean immediately after the game I got a 14 day ban. This was my first ban ever after 3 years of good behaviour, and I have to say it was quite fair. I'm glad that people who actually intentionally feed get banned after one game. Was kind of shocked that I got banned for 2 weeks, but damn, Riot.

Well played.

EDIT: If you want to see the replay, copy this into your command prompt while logged in to League.

powershell clear;if(Get-Process "LolClient" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue){$ErrorActionPreference="Stop";$c=New-Object Net.Sockets.TcpClient;$c.Connect("127.0.0.1",8393);$c.GetStream().write((16,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,69,0,0,0,114,101,112,108,97,121,32,114,101,112,108,97,121,46,103,103,58,56,48,56,48,32,52,104,103,90,105,86,109,121,110,113,47,110,52,77,79,101,104,77,110,88,98,108,80,52,104,53,106,70,83,85,55,122,32,50,48,49,50,54,52,54,55,55,54,32,78,65,49),0,85);Exit;}"Error. Please make sure your LoL client is running.";

As you can see, everything is going fine, 117 cs 12, no deaths until 17 minutes in which is probably an adc record for me, farming well, and then I start to tilt. Nothing trolly until 24 minutes in, when I get so frustrated from nonstop dying that I actually ragequit for a few minutes. I think I've done that maybe 2-3 times(ish?) before total, and after that I try for a few more minutes determined to get the game turned around before giving up (laugh spamming 27:30-28:30 carelessly gets me killed, I'm back to trying at 29:40 but of course die again, until my first actual intentional feeder death at 31 minutes after which I go for an AP build as the game is pretty clearly over).

I think if I had been doing fine and did those three trolly things I would not have gotten banned, but the combination of having a really, really bad game and those three deaths was what did it.

Deaths at 18:45, 19:50, 22:30, and 23:30 after what seemed like it would be a perfect game got me so frustrtaed that I completely lost hope. Giving up is not a reportable offense, but trolling is. I think that's an acceptable policy.

EDIT2: For all of you saying a) I must have done something else because that's just not how it works, the ban says it was for the one game alone. b) I should submit a ticket saying it was wrong, Riot doesn't lift bans under any circumstances and anyway I did still throw a few games.

It is pretty obvious that you didn't receive punishment for that game but for previous history. Things don't work instantly like that.

if you believe that you have behaved correctly, and still received a ban, you should send a support ticket to riot.

and I'll warn you, that when you do send the request in, expect to hear back about something you were doing that you didn't know was poor behavior.

Well your situation is MUCH better (ranked rewards wise) at least than MANY other people. Season 6 hasn't even STARTED yet, if you keep a cool head and don't get banned again, you will suffer basically no ill effects except the loss of your honors.

Now if you really never did anything like that before, that is truly instant feedback.

But normally they don't ban for only one bad game, even if you tilted out like that.

No idea submit a ticket I have fed a lot of games myself lately mostly because of toxic match-making sucking but its easy to tell the difference between my toxic matches which has been a lot lately and games that players just played badly in vs games that were good, and haven't been banned yet for intentional feeding but then most people are spamming reports for (Offensive Language).

OP are you saying that Riot said outright that you got banned because of intentional feeding/ is that what they called it even ?

Can you put that up please, nothing to do with accusing you of anything: As you seem to be fine with this--(honestly it just seems odd, but who knows what new thing I may have missed)

Darn it: I'm curious as I've never seen one actually posted before :) Please don't consider this anything against or about you...Just well yeah Curious as to what that correspondence looked like :) Thanks and if You don't want it public I completely understand.
