For once and for all: What are the rules on getting a permanently banned account unbanned

The Drifter7··2 votes·403 views

Hey,

I literally just copped a perm for flaming some kids

I know that it's highly unlikely that my account will get unbanned but I would just like to clear up the rules a bit. I'm getting a few mixed messages reading what I think are shitposts, nonconstructive comments, and people who are just plain old stupid

Is it possible for a permanently banned account to be unbanned ^Does the ban HAVE to be errant for it to be revoked, or can a human deem the flame 'within acceptable boundaries'

I'll cop a ban on the chin if I have to, but god damn I miss my Dark Star Thresh already.

Keep the comments section constructive please ;)

Edit: How long does it take to unlock honor level after a chat restriction ban? A buddy of mine wants to know.

yes

here's what you do:

you bury a container of ritual items, including a photograph of the summoner you wish unbanned, graveyard dirt (signifying your toxic demeanor), a black cat bone (signifying your flaming ), and yarrow (signifying the wish to change your evil ways) at the center of a crossroads at midnight on the night before the new season starts and then you wait for about an hour for Phreak to show up in a limo and personally unblock your account all the while moving to the rythm of Despacito while chanting the lyrics in a cultist manner, occasionally raising your hands towards the moon and yelling "Faker! Thy will be done!"

i know it sounds a bit extreme but trust me on this!

it's the only hway!

LOL, funny thing is that I think there are some legitimate witches on here all casting curses on me.

xD

League is a fun game...

Sorry dude but my doctor prohibited me from performing rituals. He says that It "adversely affects the multiverse" whatever that means. Got any other fixes for me though?

i'm sorry. i thought the account was more important to you than any side effect...

Does the ban HAVE to be errant for it to be revoked, or can a human deem the flame 'within acceptable boundaries'

In general, a ban has to be in error to be revoked. On very rare occasions (and with sufficient context and a decent behavior history), a Player Support specialist can downgrade bans (but not entirely remove a deserved ban, to my knowledge). There is not, however, an "acceptable boundary" for flaming.

I'm afraid I don't know the hard answer to this one. Apologies.

There is no hard answer. Punishment levels degrade based on behavior, not on time passed. We've been told the average to go down one step is about three months.

I know that one. The question was regaining the ability to earn honor though, which I dont know. :)

Bans are only revoked if Riot's made a mistake or the IFS has made a mistake.

In your case, your chances of getting your banned revoked are practically zero because you likely: 1. had a ban before, and 2. your behavior was legitimately unwarranted.

Well f*ck.

Thanks for the info tho <3

Nothing djinn said is incorrect. My curiosities as to if it's worth your time to try and get it removed lies in the logs. Were you calling for things like KYS constantly?

Nah the only trigger words I said were -Retard -Inbred -Fuck -Shit -Maybe F*ggot

I also made some unsavory comments about how the player had fetal alcohol poisoning and other harsh things of such.

I didn't make any racial slurs or otherwise discriminatory insults.

Last I checked any variation of F** Is on the list. I could be wrong. I'd also state plainly that retard and inbred are also going net some points in regards to severity. Also saying someone has fetal alcohol poisoning is the same thing as calling them mentally handicapped from what I understand. Now one thing to note last I checked is the words fuck and shit themselves are not quite triggers but rather the context of them. Saying "ah fuck" and "you fuck" are 2 different things. In my honest opinion from what I gathered off what you said your odds of getting unbanned are likely low.
