2 Week Suspension @Keyru

just afk lol·2/11/2016, 10:35:15 AM·1 votes·930 views

Hey there, I was just banned for being overly toxic. I didn't start like this; I only recently became more toxic than usual. 2 weeks from now, I plan to play League of Legends once again. But before doing this, I must ask you; If I turn off cross-team chat, and mute my teammates, will I improve? I've tried this before, and have just been reported still, even though I say nothing, which makes me question this strategy. I've put time and money into this game that I don't want to forfeit just because people provoke, and troll. Although, sometimes it is me starting things, I won't lie. Anyways, could you leave me some helpful tips to become a better (community) player? Also, I've seen people saying that they've been permanently banned off of games from before the 2 week ban, is this true? Could this happen to me? I'm scared I will get banned because of false reports, and it happens all the time (Ex: I will do better than someone, they will report me for verbal abuse to get 'revenge'). I love League of Legends, and I will try my hardest to improve my attitude towards fellow players. If you could reply, that would be great; if you aren't Keyru, feel free to respond! Thanks.

Hey KDrizzler,

I'm not Keyru, but I am pretty familiar with how the Instant Feedback system and reports operate. The system, while automated, is very good at weeding out false reports. It's built specifically to do that. If you don't say anything negative (or anything at all) it isn't possible to be punished by verbal abuse reports. If you need to mute everyone to keep from getting into an argument with them, please do so.

You can learn a little more about how reports are handled at these links; http://forums.na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=4737274&page=13#post48926281 http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/news/game-updates/player-behavior/reports-how-do-they-work

Also important to note is that it takes 3 months for your punishment tier to drop 1 step, and the steps are as follows;

10 game chat restriction
25 game chat restriction
14 day account ban
Permanent account ban

Since you just got a 14 day ban, that means you're at the Permaban tier next. In 3 months after your ban ends you will drop to the 3rd step again, and if you get punished it'll be a 14 day again. 6 months it'll be down to a 25 game chat restriction, 9 months to a 10 game. http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/f/mNBeEEkI/d/p7scKW1K?comment=00050000000000000000

Yes, the games right after your ban ends are the most important ones. People can be banned the 1st game after the 2 week ban is over. I'd give yourself a self-imposed 10 game mute- just don't type a single word into chat. Ping spam or AFK if you have to, but don't say anything in chat.

After that, just /mute all and try to say less than 4 lines of chat per game. That'll keep you well out of ban range.

A false report doesn't matter. It's very unlikely that you receive a ban although you didn't do anything wrong.

Yo,

I suggest that you report all team mates for relevant reasons if you have any negative feelings about them (relevant reasons) Make sure you mute any player who you think may instigate a fight. I know a lot of people get stressed over a video game, but just make sure you keep your cool and as soon as you see a message that is negative- you mute it.

Also be sure not to type anything negative as this will get you banned very fast, as "DEEP TERROR NAMI" Stated your Perma ban is next. It may seem okay now but when you are perma banned and there is no paying at all, you will be very pissed off, I would too!

Even if you have to go to a safe spot in the game for about 5 or 10 seconds to hold back from typing and write down the name of who you want to report and add some reasons so you can put it in at the end of game screen. then come back with them muted and no chance of fighting.

Hope I helped :) ~~Reported4Verbal~~ OCE~ Always Happy To Help! :) ARAM Main! In SR,
