Dear League of Legends Community, Riot Games and anyone who is listening, I humbly ask you to please take your time in this case..

I acknowledge that my behavior in the past is not who I am now. I take full responsibility for my past action. I understand the reason for my account being permanently banned and that is was Riot just following their policies, guidelines and rules. I respect everything that Riot has to offer, everyone working for Riot and the League of Legends community.

I love League of Legends despite any negative behavior that has been seen, read and felt the hurt; I will continue to play because I want to try to change the negative people while continuing to improve myself towards self-actualization. I know who I am; I am an inspiring leader, a teacher, a mentor and a wonderful support player, though I continue to learn new aspects of League of Legend, which is awesome.

I have been playing for almost 10 years now; after seeing the permanently ban on my account, I had a meltdown, rapid heart and felt as though I mentally died.. I fell into a deep depression. That did not stop me from playing as I know my mistakes were a collective negative behavior from all sorts of outputs; friends who I've play with for those years, jealously, resentment, not being as "lucky" as I was.. anything that would give them the reason to have my hard work be thrown away. I love League of Legends, I love Riot Games and have decided to continue playing in hope that one day someone will understand me.

I am not the same person I was, getting my account banned cause me to fall into a deep depression, though I may come off as resilient; playing League of Legends give me Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Anytime I play on my new account; I recall the gifts said friends had gifted me in the past and feel the utter most sadness toward my friends. I play with some "friends" who I know has reported me countless times despite me never reporting because I love friends and I never want them banned. Anytime I play with these friends now, I am always afraid that the slightest mistake I do, for example; not placing a ward, not ganking or ganking incorrectly, not roaming, or roaming to help and lose experience.. in the end they'll push and push me to trigger me, yes my friends who I've played with for the past 10 years do this and continue this very day on my new account. I really do LOVE League of Legends despite having these friends that I continue to play with. I will continue to play with them because I have faith that they'll change and reform.

My goal is to reach Honor Level 5 and reach Gold and continue to play as much to prove that I am reforming. I have decide to play League of Legends and be on Riots side as I should have to begin with and not the side of these friends. I have changed as I have been reporting unhealthy behaviors, I am doing my best to only report those who are violating Riot Games protocols. It is tough change, but I will do everything to prove I am reforming.

It has been a few months since the account for permanently banned; I still log-in to the account, sad I know, but I love that account and have put so much hard work and invest to much time. I love promoting what every champion is capable of doing, this gets me reported as I die too often by getting caught and my team lets it happen, usually my friends would wait for me to die to go in after and then report me for dying. I have witnessed so many different behaviors and have started to report properly and respectfully.

I have read that permanently bans are 99.9% irreversible; I ask that with time as much time needed I can prove to you that I can be that 00.1%. I genuinely an honest man, loving nature, a friend to all and welcome new members with open arms and an open mind. I humbly ask you to please continue to review my games, take your time as I know there are many unfortunate people who are trying to get their own account back. Please take you time on this case, I am making the League of Legends community better and will continue, I have lost so much so please take you time.

I have consider working with Team Riot as I love League of Legends and love reforming the community; I am interested in working with Riot and will be one of the best candidates. I love playing every champion despite favoring some champions over others and I can help Riot Games understand why the favoritism. Please take your time, let me continue to reform and prove that the past behaviors were triggered behaviors from said friends.

My goal was to unlock everything on my account because I want my future child to pick up where I left off with everything being unlocked and not be restricted, have the joy of freedom of choice. That goal is and will always be a goal because who wouldn't love playing League of Legends with everything unlocked.

I thank you form the depths of my heart for taking the time in reading this case, I humbly request to please take your time in reevaluating this case. Thank you for inventing such an awesome game to play with remarkable coding. Riot Games and League of Legends always keeps me impressed and it always feels new every game.

Please take your time, I hope that one day I could log-in to my account and reignite that flame I lost, I will follow every aspect of Riot Games procedures and rules; punish only those who need to be punished fairly through Riot Games rules.

Thank you Riot Games, League of Legends Community and anyone who take the time to understand, I love you all and have a blessed life. <3

Jesus Christ, the drama. Unfortunately, you are never, ever getting this account back. Ever. There are no exceptions to correctly-placed permanent bans.

The unfortunate problem here is, reports DO get sifted through. I've been stuck in matches with enough salty "omg you missed your skillshot/aren't prefect, REPORT!" types to be able to say that I'd have been permabanned YEARS ago if RIOT didn't take the time to sort the B.S. reports from the legitimate grievances. There's likely nothing you can say that will convince them to unban you in light of the information they've already seen in terms of your actual in-game behaviors. Also I think you may have meant something else entirely when you put in the bit about PTSD; you were under no physical obligation to play, nor were you physically unable to get away from the game. Your life was at NO POINT in danger from playing League (oh god could you see the reckless endangerment and other assorted lawsuits there would be if that were possible?), unless you PUT it in danger, and even then, the PTSD would kinda be your own fault.

Furthermore, you claim to take responsibility for your actions (while asking to have the consequences of them removed I might add, which is kind of the opposite of taking responsibility), yet you mention multiple times in your OP that you think your behaviors were the result of others messing with you, several of which you say were good friends that would constantly egg you on. The whole thing about behavior is that it is YOUR JOB SPECIFICALLY to choose how you behave regardless of the circumstances. You chose to keep acting out, and to keep playing with the people who most frequently set you off/reported you. Furthermore multiple studies have tried to tie depression to video game use over the years, the closest link they have as of yet (to my knowledge) is that it can WORSEN depression in folks who already have it, but it does not CAUSE depression, whether you overplay or suddenly stop (such as one would upon being banned).

I REALLY hope I'm misunderstanding something here, because frankly "I promise I'll be good!" Is all that seems legit about OP, and that's FAR from enough reason to unban someone who's actually been found guilty-against-all-odds by RIOT and deemed enough of a malcontent to be told that you're not allowed to come back.

P.S. While I can understand wanting to pass your account on to your child, I don't know if that's even technically allowed, given how most online games treat instances of account-sharing; you should probably ask first just to make sure they don't find out later and ban the kid you gave the account to for "stealing" it.
