I GOT PERMA-BANNED FOR A FIRST OFFENSE.(NOT A BIG OFFENSE)

Reckless African··3 votes·1,340 views

Ok so first things first my account got perma banned for a first offense i just think this part is kinda wrong. Account suspended until Mon Sep 01 18:22:43 UTC 2070. I have never been banned before so if i were to get one i thought it might be a 2 day or 1 week for first offense. I kinda know the reason i got reported, i was playing one for all and we got 5 udyr and i thought this was a bad pick so i said "Udyr is a trash pick terrible idea". I also called one of my team mates shit, but it wasn't personal because we were all shit that game and i said it myself. Well obviously i knew it was annoying for the teammates but i thought it didn't really matter because one for all is just a fun game mode. The Udyr that reported got very angry and we had bit of an argument because he accused me of purposely trolling but i think i was playing fine that game i went even and built standard.

Now i assume my username could be reported for having, but the thing behind my username is that i am african and i am from a country called "Niger", yup it exists. So as a joke with me and my friends i change my name to Reckless Niger because it is ALMOST offensive, but it is NOT offensive because there is no actual offensive word in my username. I am implying that i am a "Reckless" player from "Niger".

So to wrap it up i am asking if could have my ban lifted or even lowered to a reasonable date, because i don't think the punishment should be this severe. Its like giving a guy life in prison for having 2 ounces of marijuana for the first time. Stuff just don't add up.

Please reply soon Sincerely, Reckless Nig item 3070 item 3070

PS, I could change the name if that's the big issue here.

You wouldn't have gotten a permaban over your name or calling something a trash pick. You should receive an email with more information on your ban, and if it was for a chat offense it should include chat logs in the email and also in-client when logging in.

If you don't get an email, make sure to check your spam folder, and that your email is verified with the account by clicking your profile on the top right and going to Settings. If that's all in order or you just need more information, submit a Support Ticket.

To directly address your name, intentionally evoking a racial slur through suggestion is no different from actually saying it. They would've just given you a forced name change for that unless they already had and you kept making something offensive.

Yea i submitted a support ticket. But i didn't get chat logs or a reason for the perma-ban so i'm here confused.

Check your email/spam folder and the game client for the Reform Card (it should be there once you log in). If it's not in either then just file a Support Ticket and wait.

when you buy RP and your bank declines the transaction. you definitely did not get banned for behavior issues because its a 2070 ban. its not related to tribunal, or behavior.

the good thing about these types of bans is that they can be reversed, a 2070 permaban is hardly "perma"

A charge-back ban is a ban for payment issues. Until you pay back the amount of money stated then your account will remained banned for security reasons.

chargeback bans are usually 2106 or 2107, i have never seen a 2070 ban before in my life, so im kinda curious what he got banned for. i hope he lets us know.

This may be due to riot thinking you purchased your account/ third party programs. You just need to email them and see what happens.
