archelocke: gear archelocke: why are you jungling without smite?? i don't understand archelocke: you're just going to hold poppy back by letting her solo lane...wait until enemy has jungler to jungle... archelocke: and wait until you have smite of all things -.- archelocke: what? archelocke: tbh not sure why you instantly come to the conclusion that i'm a smurf archelocke: sona, it's somebody who makes a second account archelocke: yeah archelocke: i don't max my e...maxing q vs e is completely an opinion archelocke: i start e though archelocke: i guess...i still think what you start is completely a person preference and also depends on who you're up against archelocke: i knew i was up agianst you, so i went with my e first archelocke: wat archelocke: your card just went through my wind wall archelocke: not sure how comfortable i feel with both brand and teemo camping this lane archelocke: not you, but brand. archelocke: eh archelocke: tf archelocke: i don't think you know what you're talking about archelocke: yeah, you seem like one too. no new player farms as well as you archelocke: you're fooling nobody. and yes, sona. archelocke: can somebody besides poppy come help too archelocke: yeah. archelocke: my team put you all in such a major lead oml archelocke: i don't understand why you're angry enough to start throwing insults. you're winning. archelocke: is this game that important to you? archelocke: you act completely angry archelocke: so in a way you said yourself that you're angry archelocke: how did i try to lie to you? archelocke: also, you're lying about NOT being a smurf, but you're fooling nobody in truth archelocke: and yeah, no i didn't archelocke: but you clearly are archelocke: nobody at such a low level plays nearly as well as you...unless you're partied with somebody else, in which case you're basically giving the same effect as smurfing archelocke: yeah, no. archelocke: easy? yeah, i can't argue. you're still on the mechanical level of a silver player. archelocke: not a low level. archelocke: basically it means i can come to the accurate conclusion that you're a liar archelocke: you can't mechanically coach people. that's a fact. people have tried, i have tried. archelocke: i have. the mechanics are extremely different. archelocke: yes, but that is not what twisted fate has archelocke: he has decent mechanics. he plays like a silver player. he should be playing like a new player. playing dota isn't an excuse because dota is an entirely different game. archelocke: ...no, it's not. archelocke: people who played dota made lol, but they are not made by the same people. archelocke: no. archelocke: it's not. it's made by people who played the first dota. archelocke: you're not fooling anybody, tf, end of story. you can call me a liar, but it makes you a hypocrite. archelocke: and teemo, yes, the games are entirely different. archelocke: the goals in each match may be the same and competitive play may see similarities, but other than that they are different. archelocke: i don't think you've played dota tf...another lie to add to the list. archelocke: you'd know the two games were different archelocke: you can stop lying because i won't see it, muted. archelocke: deleted before i could reach my target, RIP archelocke: well shit archelocke: i credit my loss entirely to malphite...went jungle without smite and allowed poppy to fall behind, teemo to get fed, and brand archelocke: to roam archelocke: thanks malphite archelocke: this is why you don't jungle without smite archelocke: btw archelocke: ... archelocke: malphite archelocke: my god archelocke: on top of jungling without smite all of this happens archelocke: haha, i unmuted tf after about ~5 to see him still entirely butthurt. i unmute people to see if they're capable of acting older than 12, but it appears otherwise. archelocke: ... archelocke: dude archelocke: you're so dumb archelocke: xD

I don't understand why it's a reason for a chat restriction. I was extremely calm the entire time, and I didn't resort to insulting him (except for those two remarks at the end)

Quick summary of what happened:

I was playing Yasuo, and I ended up playing against a Twisted Fate. I started E and used it to last "hit" minions, and he called me a smurf. I asked him why that was, he started talking about mechanics, whatever. I will admit that this isn't my first account, but the highest my ELO has reached is gold 1. He seemed like he knew what he was doing mechanically (TF is a pretty easy champ, but still doesn't excuse the fact that he plays better than any new player.) I tell him he's obviously a smurf too because he plays like a silver player, not a low level player. He gives me the excuse that he plays DOTA, so I try to tell him that DOTA and LOL mechanics are quite different. Short story short, I muted him and unmuted him a bit later. Nothing changed.

I will admit that I did a "bad" thing by letting Malphite know what his mistakes were in the middle of the game. Typically you only do this if they're your friend or after a game ends, but I figured it was okay. Regardless, it wasn't toxic so much as expressing my point of view. I called TF "dumb" and said he was "butthurt". He did way worse. I didn't even get a notification that he was punished, but I guess I was punished instead.

I don't entirely understand why this is a good reason for a chat restriction. The chat restriction is no big deal in itself, but this is still confusing and unsettling. Especially since TF wasn't punished.

It's not just this game. You've gotten the chat restriction because you consistently get reported for unsportsmanlike behavior- almost every game. The chat logs are there to show you examples of behavior that are unacceptable in the league community.

You might have thought that arguing all game and calling someone a lying smurf is not unsportsmanlike behavior before (somehow), but the chat log is here to tell you that it is. You should cut out that unsportsmanlike behavior now, because if you don't, the punishments only get worse (a bigger chat restriction, then a 2 week ban, and then a permanent ban).

After reading it didn't look as though much of anything was going wrong. I know you said you were being calm and stuff but honestly, if I was the TF I would see you as assaulting me so that could be one thing. Riot looks at both sides, the attacker, and the receiver. For example if someone started talking crap to you and you started to defend yourself, you wouldn't get banned because you were not provoking the abuse or anything of the sort. But that last part with Malphite and everything probably set the chat restriction. Either way chat restrictions aren't huge deals, you just can't talk to your team and sometimes that's a good thing so you don't get a ban or do something that you regret and may cost you your account.

Because the system doesnt work and has no idea of common sense

This was an undeserved ban, you acted calm and reasoned with the flamer, which you really shouldn't do. Also, be happy you got a chat restriction, some people were known to be banned for less. You also seem like a nice person, I really don't understand how this was a chat ban.

Maybe riot thinks you need to chat less... I sure think that. Stop....talking...so.... much.
