The Classic Perma-ban rant. Again.

So yeah, i was permabanned a year ago for apparent toxicity in frequent games. The reason why is because i really cannot comprehend it when teammates flame my ass off without a darn reason, and then dare to report me for it aswell and get me banned ontop of that. A year or such later i wrote a email to Riot explaining the situation and exactly what happend. The Email alone took me about 30+ minutes to write, i wrote it with all honesty and everything that bothered me at the time and my home situation (Speaking of that my mother died around that time so that explains why i was more eager to flame than usual.) And after a day or so i got some automated response written to me. And that just plain offended me because a email that i put so much effort in into writing just got thrown into the bin by Riot basically. My account was worth atleast 700+ Euro's. I don't see how Riot thinks permabanning players is the way to remove them from their community, No, they will just create another account and they will be alot more toxic and eager to flame than before. Permabanning isn't a way to solve anything at all. I agree, what i did was over the top. But i believe that everyone needs to get a second chance on their Main account. League has gotten so boring after that ban, i am limited to very few champs and i don't see the need to play League as much as i used to, i am willing to reform. But now i get the reason why so many people are quitting league, Riot is unreasonable when it comes to such matters and they refuse to come to an agreement and just send you a automated message. I know i'm just taking the piss out of Riot right now, but i think i should just get a second chance. What happend was in the past, i have changed now and i'm alot more mature. I really want another chance on my main so i can play the champions that i bought and saved up for so eagerly, and try out the legendary skins and ultimate skins that i owned.

If any Riot employee happens to read this, please take it into consideration. I would love to explain the entire story again just to you. Well that was all i had to say i guess. Thanks for reading.

There are no second chances. Even pro players that get their main permabanned have to level a new account if they want to keep playing. Look at Jensen, he was one of the most toxic EU players, even banned from competitive due to his actions. He levelled a new account, proved he had reformed, and they allowed him to play competitively. But his main account remains banned. Nobody gets special treatment. A permaban is permanent.

If you got permabanned you must've done a lot. There are multiple tiers of punishment leading up to a permaban, so Riot likely won't have any sympathy for your situation considering you had multiple punishments you could've reformed during and if you didn't reform with those punishments, why would you reform now? Also, I understand you probably had a good amount of champions and skins on your other account, but you can still get those same champions on a new account. Hell, you can buy them with IP and not spend a penny on RP if you really want.

I agree with everyone else. If you get permabanned you must've deserved it. You don't just get permabanned. Maybe you were being more toxic trying to "defend" yourself. Just mute the other players and don't reply and then report them afterwards.

As everyone else has said, you had your second chance way before the permaban. They dont respond to your first punishment with a permaban. There are levels of punishment you go through BEFORE you even reach the severity of a permaban.

I'm sorry you were going through a tough time in life, but that does not excuse ill behavior to anyone, and it's not an excuse to get the ban reversed.

You had plenty of time, chances, and reminders to reform your attitude before getting banned, but you chose to continue down a toxic path. The boards can't help you with this, nor can Riot. Only you can change your attitude should you make a new account and try again.

I wish you luck if you do and hope you learn from your past mistakes to not let this happen again.

Just leave and stop playing.

That's what I did.

Riot is a bunch of dicks. They have very good examples to pull from (just look at Blizz removing chat in the console versions of Overwatch (or make it a pain in the ass to use), or Hearthstone, etc. No chat.

Stop keeping a method that isn't needed to play the game, but can engender toxicity, in the game.

Full on getting rid of chat with the exception of a few emotes and pings would all but completely solve the issue.
