Permanent Ban Unwarned

I received a notification on client (no e-mail) for a 14 day suspension for toxicity. Okay fine I'll take that I am toxic because people troll. Anyway then 14 days later I try to log in but I have been permanently banned? What kind of bs is this? I'm not here to type a paragraph about how much RIOT doesn't care about their customers, I'm here to complain that I was given a permanent ban when it said 2 weeks. Also I have never ONCE gotten an email about bans? I have been 14 day suspended on one account, then banned, this case, and also a suspension on a third account I had to start fresh because RIOT love to fuck up my life. either I get this mistake solved, or I get the reason why the mistake wasn't a mistake and how they don't email people for account bans.

Post your chat logs here if you think it's unfair.

I read your logs, and I can tell you it looks like a correct ban to me.

and also a suspension on a third account I had to start fresh because RIOT love to fuck up my life.

I'd say don't make another account. A perma-ban is a way of removing players from the community.

So to be clear, you were informed of a 14-day ban, but it was escalated to perma without you ever playing a game after the 14-day?

Could happen as a result of a manual review of your case, if you were deemed to be exceedingly toxic. Use of slurs could have lead to such action. If you got chat logs for your 14-day ban, we might be able to offer insight there.

But dude, if this is your third banned account, the problem isn't that "Riot loves to fuck up your life". You gotta figure out a way to color within the lines.

I've seen this happen before.... what happened was that the automated system gave you a punishment of two weeks.

It also notified a Riot employee who manually reviewed your case. This employee decided to hit you with a perma-ban which is why you've gotten conflicting information. Now I agree that Riot's draconian system is INCREDIBLY bad for the game, for the community and in general, but people don't agree with me so most people will tell you that you got exactly what you deserved.

I don't agree. I believe the draconian system is wrong.

i think that if you are a jerk as a community we have decided we dont want you here, and riot has upheld our wishes. goodluck in your next game.

If riot wants to fix toxicity in league they need to put more emphasis on punishing trolls. I feel you on this one actually. The only games I lose my cool in are ones where intentional feeding happened, or troll picking champions, etc. Trolling is not punished in this game, yet toxicity is. Toxicity happens overwhelmingly because of trolling. They are punishing the reaction, not the root cause.

Make another dog. Don't let a big corporation tell you what you can and can't do!

PS. By the way, just out of curiosity? Did you send warnings to the people you were gonna rage at?

If you didn't get any email then your best bet for more info would be to file a support ticket about it.

Silly question, but since this isn't your first account I'll ask. Are you checking the right email account?

Not finding your email notification is unfortunate. It has nothing whatsoever to do with the fairness of your punishment, which you've recognized you deserved : "Okay fine I'll take that I am toxic".

So yes, your punishment is fair. Try to look through your spam folder, or check on your forum account what email is actually attached to your account. Because the email is sent by a computer program, so it doesn't really make sense to think "they haven't sent it'.
