On average, how long after punishment ends can you get rewards again ?

So I exploded in chat yesterday in a game and got my 1st chat restriction. I didn't remember at the time that any kind of punishment would render me ineligible to earn things skins and such from Hextech crafting. According to the info on this, it can last after the punishment has been lifted and it's not linked to any kind of time period. So my question is this and for any other person who has experienced this before, how long did it take you to be eligible once again for rewards ? This is the first time this has happened to me so I don't know what to expect.

Also, for anyone who might curious(I know some people here are gonna be), here's what got me the ban:-

> Game 1 > XelNiya: fuck mid > XelNiya: fuck yall > XelNiya: ecvery fuckin game > XelNiya: bunch of fuckin feeders > XelNiya: im fuckin sick of this shit > XelNiya: it never helps > XelNiya: not wasting my fuckin time > XelNiya: game after game after game of this same fuckin bullshit > XelNiya: fuckin feeder every fuckin game > XelNiya: it never fuckin stops > XelNiya: it didnt help with my last team or the team b4 that > XelNiya: or the team before that > XelNiya: i really dont know what to fuckin do anymore > XelNiya: every ghame
> XelNiya: fuckin feeder > XelNiya: why the fuck cant i ever fyuckin get the good allies > XelNiya: tired of tjois fuckin shit evey fuckin game now > XelNiya: god fuckin damn it > XelNiya: im 0-0-0 > XelNiya: withj the most cs > XelNiya: sigh > XelNiya: fuck this > XelNiya: im waiting for 2 mins to ff > XelNiya: report i dont fuckin care > XelNiya: same shit > XelNiya: why why why > XelNiya: is this shit > XelNiya: fuckin feeders > XelNiya: every fuckin game > XelNiya: im fuckin done > XelNiya: yet i NEVER the one feeding > XelNiya: kat was under my fuckin tower 24/7 > XelNiya: when i do it > XelNiya: their junglers > XelNiya: gank me > XelNiya: when its done to me > XelNiya: i never get fuckin ganks > XelNiya: not blaming the jg > XelNiya: but fuck > XelNiya: this shit is too much > XelNiya: i dont give a fuck > XelNiya: i want out of this game > XelNiya: this aint b5 > XelNiya: aint no carrying this shit > XelNiya: just fuckin ff > XelNiya: explain to me how the fuck i can be afk and still have more cs than my adc nah > XelNiya: fuck this > XelNiya: they dont wanna ff > XelNiya: yall cant even fuckin cs correctly > XelNiya: how the fuck are any of u silver > XelNiya: i will but not with this garbage team > XelNiya: i wanna ff and hope i get a better team that doesnt fuckin feed > XelNiya: i been to silver fuckin 3....this team shouldn;t even be past bronze 3 > XelNiya: come on plz ff > XelNiya: they dont wanna > XelNiya: this aint bronze cuz > XelNiya: well u guys maybe > XelNiya: im not bronze at all > XelNiya: cant believe i was ever as bad as yall > XelNiya: only gnar is good > XelNiya: man fuckj > XelNiya: ff > XelNiya: lets part ways plz > XelNiya: look i dont wanna talk to yall > XelNiya: i just wanna ff > XelNiya: for fuck's sake > XelNiya: amumu stfu and ff > XelNiya: i dont wanna hear u kid > XelNiya: OMG amumu ur b3 ? > XelNiya: wow > XelNiya: fuck me > XelNiya: b3 this is why ur so bad > XelNiya: not on ur life > XelNiya: i smashed that elo ages ago > XelNiya: how the fuck do people even get stuck in bronze > XelNiya: jesus fuckin christ' > XelNiya: im afk and still have the most CS > XelNiya: what a fuckin joke > XelNiya: PLZ END > XelNiya: PLZ > XelNiya: PLZ

Note though, this isn't about whether this was warranted or not. I knew some kind of punishment was possible but I was too infuriated to care. Of course if I had remembered that this would also stop me from getting stuff from Hextech crafting, I'd have said nothing and probably just afk at the fountain or something instead to avoid this punishment. Also, for the record, I don't regret what I said. I meant every word. No one should have to play with avid feeders in their games. However, I DO REGRET SAYING IT. I should not have said anything at all. Think I'm gonna just mute everybody every game now when I solo.

In 2 days if you play ~40 bot games. It detects games in a row without getting reported, nobody will report you only in bot games. In real games, somebody will always report you for nothing, but the system doesnt care, you will get nothing. It worked for me, it will for you. And try to be less toxic, I already improved, but didnt really deserve to chat ban in the first place, but what can you do. GL HF :)

This is what I'm afraid of.

LOL, even in bot games I had people threaten to report me. Guess for what the first time it happened to me.....I didn't save someone a bot killed as if that even mattered. Other times was because I went to a lane someone else wanted. There's no way to avoid reports I'm afraid. This might not bode so well for me.

Well I'm not gonna pretend that my chat restriction wasn't warranted. I normally don't speak much in game but in this case I was on a losing streak where I kept getting feeding teammates. And I'm not talking about your typical feeds. I'm talking about world class feeders here. I'm talking about every lane feeding kills every 30 seconds and this went on for 4 games in a row that night. It drove me fuckin nuts and resulted in that tirade you see in the OP. I'm probably gonna get some more games in a row when I get on tonight where my allies just do nothing but feed. Been happening for almost a week now. I just can't seem to get even games. They are always a stomp with me getting the feeding team. That shit is just beyond bad luck.

Why are people downvoting lol. Its 100% true. Just try it. Of course, if you are so toxic that you get reported in bot games too, you wont make it long before you get permabanned anyway, so why bother with hextech... People cant seem to understand - if you insult even the worst feeding scum, you will get banned and not them; if you respond to flamers, both of you will get banned, not just them. You will get banned soon these days, so stop arguing, stop insulting and just mute and play.

You don't get it. In my case, I couldn't help it. I was getting feeders game after game after game. I should have stopped playing but I didn't so it kinda got to me.

Even if you did start getting hextech loot again, you will still be ineligible for end of season rewards.

If it is like last year anyways.

I asked about this a while back and was assured that I would still get my season rewards as long as the ban wasn't ACTIVE at the end of season.

This is only true for chat restrictions, not suspensions. The suspension has to end before 3 months out.

OP and myself both received chat restrictions, so I was only speaking to those. Good to know though!

Ah well I got a chat restriction so I guess I can get this still then. Sadly, based on early responses I thought I wasn't gonna get it and started dicking around in ranked and dropped back into Bronze. :(

Yea, won't get rewards unless the suspension ended within 3 months of the end off the season. This season will end around mid November so you would have had to been unsuspended by mid August.

I believe I have seen people report that playing around 30-35 games after a 10-game chat restriction made them eligible to earn loot again, and around double that for a 25-game chat restriction. Unfortunately, there really isn't that much transparency when it comes to this, so this is really the best info I can offer.

All I can really say on how to go about this is to show neutral or positive behavior in your games, and if /mute all each game is what it takes to do that, then go ahead and do it.

Hope this helps a little bit. Wish you the best of luck in the future. If you have any other questions feel free to ask, and I will answer to the best of my ability.

I hope that's so in my case. I got a 10 game chat restriction. 35 games is about a couple days to a week of playing.

Problem is, people report for all manner of inane nonsense. You could get reported for missing a crucial skillshot which made one of your allies die.

Reports alone do not cause punishments, though. Reports only trigger a review of your account, and if nothing unacceptable is found, then no punishment is given. You could be reported for anything, but as long as you don't actually do anything wrong, you won't be punished. The system is designed to throw out false reports, and does a pretty decent job at doing so.

Also, while I don't know exactly what the system pays attention too, I'm fairly certain that even simply being reported won't necessarily extend the duration of hextech ineligibility, at least not false reports anyway.

Ah...ok. Really hope you're correct.

On one account, I gave up, it's been more than 3 months, but I don't play it enough....

On my main account where I was stalked and baited into a chat restriction, it took like a week. I don't know if number of games or appeals to reason in my support tickets had anything to do with it or not.

With that said, I can say with absolute certainty that I have no chat history of anything extreme like racial / sexist / or homopobic slurs whatsoever. It's more pschological warfare and... like I'll say I have 'Alice' from Riot sitting in this game with me, but I don't know anyone at riot.

also I get reported for calling out cheaters, they hate that! Technically it's against the TOU, it's a constant battle, since I do get bored playing games full of ip farm bots and other assorted cheats, while even casual cheaters are entertained by just playing.

A lot times, those cheating will start giving out advice or gloating, so its particularly tempting.

Ok it seems I can get stuff again. Don't know how many games I played since my chat restriction but it was a lot. It took a couple days, I guess it's a week at most before you can get rewards after punishment. Thx all for all your replies.
