Just wondering if anyone has ever gotten a permaban removed before

If the punishment was deemed to be issued in error, they may overturn the punishment. These instances typically include a double dip in the system (triggering a 14 day ban but getting into a new game before ban drop AND being toxic in the new match), over zealous cases with newer accounts, or when a new strategy comes out that triggers a gameplay offense (like Inting Sion did).

Other cases include Reform (unperma) Experiments Riot may choose to conduct. (2 known cases thus far to my knowledge.)

on a special case like that, as rare as it is, do you think previously earned honor rewards are factored?

One day at least a year from now(already been a year since my perma) I plan to type a sincere apology about my actions. I wouldn't exactly consider my case special or one that should be an 'error', but I did play over 3000 hours of being considered a very honorable player before my streak of arguing back with flamers and it just seems harsh to me that my previously well deserved awesome honor rewards are non existant just because some toxic people got the best of me for a couple weeks.. (like i hate to use him as an example, but I just know for sure that I had more honor rewards than tyler1 could dream of, and was Never truly as toxic as he was. so I feel that I deserve a chance one of these days at proving my reformed self, especially considering that unlike t1, I never lashed out at someone before they did me and i def didn't promote toxic to an audience)

I would hazard to say no, it wouldn't be a factor. Whoever reads this, please keep in mind that I am not a Riot Rep and these are purely my thoughts as a community member.

The reason I say no, is because to get the perma even after reaching Honor 5 or whatever. You would have had to get a string of punishments. Now, if you were Honor 0 and climbed all the way to Honor 5 and your next given punishment was still a perma; I would say there is a problem.

The T1 comparison is a tough one too. Just because the punishments are different. He got ID banned and when it was lifted, he was only allowed to create accounts again. He never got back an account he lost.

The Experiments were also large scaled for data collection purposes and not a single person randomly. I wish you luck on your endeavor though.

can relate to that too hard, was wondering why it got overturned, didn't expect issuing a ticket to support to work (was a few years ago)

Mostly bans were lifted for those players who paid for smth or got gifted ietms (payment issues).

dead wrong

Imperial PandaaDec 6, 20192 votes

I think they are talking about chargeback bans being reverted once balance was paid.

CharDeeMcDennizDec 6, 20191 votes

possibly, idk. i read it as people who pay money get preferential treatment.

im assuming ESL here so i'm sure i could be wrong

it can happen but it's on the same probability magnitude as winning a triathlon the first time participating and without any previous preparations. riot isn't known for showing mercy to flamers . but it can happen.

Yes, one person from an experiment ,the experiment gave the permanbanend players a second chance, only one person made it as far as I know. Sadly the experiment was a fail :p

I’ve seen a few.

Most recently, players got their accounts back after writing in hand written apologies during the L10 event.

Edit: I didn’t know about this until after the fact. https://twitter.com/mirageopenguins/status/1185351542766915586?s=21

It depends, I've got a friend that got condemned for using cheats. He never used any addon for league of legends, neither used cheats, he doesn't even play ranked. Riot refused to listen and closed a 6 years old account.

I guess it's easier to ban nice players having been there and supporting you for years to make them buy everything again ? Instead of banning true trolls, people ruining games on purpose.
