This Honor System is Absurd

Okay... Soooooo........ I messed up. I counter-flamed a flamer and got chat banned. It happened twice, actually. I'm so used to telling people who call me a nazi and threaten to hunt down my family and do obscene things to and at them to go **** themselves that it just happened.

Now, since you don't need any four letter words to call someone a racial slur I guess I was in the wrong there.

I'm honorable in general, supportive, encouraging, I'm grown and I believe in the power of teamwork. I got all of the special honor summoner icons when the system switched over. But now i'm stuck at Honor lvl 0, and apparently all it takes is some d-bag to report me because I won lane to keep me there. I'm also told that the system is automated. This seems..... bad. Lazy and broken and bad and I hate it.

I hate it Rito. It's lazy and blind and bad and I don't know if I mentioned this but I hate it. I know I earned my chat bans, I flamed and was immature and crappy and that isn't okay. But to be hard-stuck by an automated system forever after? Come on. I've been called things during today's games that would make Satan uncomfortable. If they remember to scramble their curse words that's okay then?

I want out of lvl 0. [zombie-brand-mindblown]

You can get your account back into good standing. You are not hard-stuck at honor 0.

all it takes is some d-bag to report me

This has nothing to do with anyone else.

I know I earned my chat bans, I flamed and was immature and crappy and that isn't okay.

This is more what you need to focus on. There's a litany of external factors that can throw you off during any game. But it's you that controls what you say and do in the game. You are the only constant in your in-game behavior. This chat restriction is about working on you, and nothing else.

Okay. Just now. Played a game where every member of my team went negative immediately. I was the only one winning my lane, so I started roaming to try to help out. TP'd bot, behind over extended enemy duo, pinged for help, engaged. Killed by duo, no help from bot. Whatever, this kind of thing happens, I basically resigned myself to losing right then and there.

I said "Where were you guys? We can do this". The support says "Shut the **** up", and then goes on a flaming tirade. I do what i'm supposed to, immediately hit /ignore all, and try to do my best. Try to split push, move pressure to me, avoid teamfights (score was like 8/24 at this point). We lose, of course, no other player on my team gets another kill for the remainder of the match.

At the end, in the lobby, support says "Please report (champion I was playing) for inting and throwing the game, worst player ever (blah blah blah flame flame sour grapes toxic childish BS)". So guess what. I'll bet that AT LEAST the support reported me. Maybe the other member of their duo did too, just for solidarity. Maybe the whole team, feeling bitter and angry after getting absolutely STOMPED. And now i'm right back to 0 on the climb out of LvL 0 honor right?

Makes perfect sense. [zombie-brand-clap]
