Me and my friend often talk stupidly to eachother in game. At the beggining of the game we said some stupid things (at eachother, not aimed at anyone else) and the rest of the game was 'gj's and finishing with a gg wp. At no point was i directly toxic to an individual i didnt know. And shortly after the game ends, I am greeted with a 15 day suspension. I have never been chat restricted in 4 years of playing, and on my first offence its an instant 15 day ban? I would happily accept a chat restriction seeming that i never troll any games and rarely flame, yet on my first offence I am 1 step away from a perma ban. How is this fair? I have had two support members review this and both of them dont explain why it was a 15 day ban, not a chat restriction. Neither of them as well tell me how what I said was ban worthy, and what I said to get banned. I honostly feel that the people who reported me just didnt like me as I wasnt playing well that game, if I said something they did not like at the very start of the game, maybe I should of been told by them or the support team, so I know not to joke with my friend anymore. Does saying a couple of silly things to a friend at the start the game need to result in a 15 day ban as my first notified offence?

Sounds like you were bantering with homophobic or racial slurs and your teammates were offended by it. Hard to say without the logs.

Do you have your chat logs? I suspect you ran afoul of one of Riot's zero-tolerance policies, which earn an immediate 14-day ban.

And yes, saying "silly things" to a friend can be worthy of a harsh punishment if those things are, say, hate speech or encouragements to self harm. That may be fine if you find them funny in private, but it's not acceptable to force three other players to see that content.

hahahaha @ the idiot. the ban you received is well deserved. enjoy no rewards and a solid 2 week vacation. i love the taste of salt, especially when idiocy is involved.

Just for reference next time you want to joke with your friend, keep it to voice comms or private messaging. :P (Hopefully I don't sound too mean).
