Everything in this subsection will get downvoted lol

Unless you're one of those "Hah, look at all these dishonourable scumbags trying to pretend they're good people!" people who make shitposts like that for attention. Or a Rioter.

I'll admit there are problems with the banning system. My black friend said "my n###a" to me after I got a pentakill one game, and he immediately got a 14-day suspension afterwards for that one game. It's dumb.

But the second someone dares make a post on here saying, "I got banned for saying 'my n###a' to my friend in a friendly way!!" they'll get downvoted to hell by every single person on here. And that's what I see in this whole subsection! A whole lot of posts being downvoted, with the exception of one "Show us your chatlogs, you dishonourable scum!!!" post that got upvoted.

Y'all must be really, really, really damn cynical if you enjoy surfing this subsection just to see, laugh at and downvote the pain of people who got banned.

What's the alternative, have Riot register black players to determine who is "allowed" to use the n-word?

And yeah, I'm cynical as fuck.

I think everyone should be allowed to use it, so no one has to get put through a suspension over something so trite and petty.

so trite and petty.

Thinking that something isn't a problem because it's not a problem for you is the very definition of unexamined privilege.

It hasn't been a problem for anyone for almost fifty years, now. It's a bad word in the same way "cracker" is a bad word. The only difference is no white people are crying and screaming, "But my ancestors!!!" while calling each other "cracker."

Besides, the fact that cracker can be said while the N-word can't is a black privilege of its own! But since they won't agree to that, I guess it's just one of those unexamined privileges, huh.

Ok sure, but why?

Cuz if everyone said it, no one would complain! If people could manage not crying over indirect words, that'd be pretty nice.

It seems like your post is attempting to rationalize the use of a slur as banter.

Realize that you're still queued with 8 other random people that may not for your reasoning.

Also realize that people readily dismiss baseless claims. So yeah, show us some chat logs.

I like to come here to help people understand why they've been punished and how the system works. Most threads gets downvoted because they are just plain uninteresting. There is nothing constructive that come off of most posts, so people downvote them.

Though I do agree that the downvote button is used just a bit too often, it's not a huge problem. I imagine that most people who are actively on the player behaviour board sorts by new so no posts get buried because of downvotes.

Using the n-word is one of only TWO things I know riot has a zero tolerance policy on. If he said it, he should have known what was coming. You can't just use foul language and not expect anything to happen. The other zero tolerance thing being KYS.

Also gay slurs. Don't forget those.

Normally we ask for the whole logs so we can better direct people, and they're lots of cases that needed to be brought to the communities attention which have been resolved here.("support" singed, 3rd party bans, multiple times riots system did not supply logs) So if you or your friend wants help please do come around.
