Chat Restricted

After having some rough games (currently on a 9 game losing streak) I ended up flaming in the chat in one of those games, and low and behold I get chat restricted. Its fair enough, I was pretty toxic that game, probably because that losing streak had me super tilted. Anywho, I was just wondering if I could get some answers cleared up regarding this chat restriction. I can see it lowered my honor back to Level 1 (lol, after one game) and the obvious limited in game chat options. Are there any other things that come with this that they don't specify? Such as queuing me up with other "flamers" and "feeders"? It just seems the quantity of feeders and trolls has increased since this happened. Is it just a coincidence or am I onto something?

Also in relation to dropped honor is you cannot create a PBE account.

That's how it usually goes, you can be neutral and positive for 97 games, but 3 of the games you lost it and were toxic. And you get chat restricted or banned.

Can you copy and paste the chat log?

That's just a coincidence. The only things a punishment entails is the punishment itself and the drop in Honor - matchmaking remains unaffected.

Riot has openly stated that they're against the idea of lumping in punished players with others who exhibit bad behavior, since it isn't conducive to reform and would make the game worse for those punished players in a number of other ways.

The only things that I could think aren't specified related to the punishment is the downsides associated with the Honor drop; specifically, decreased (or no) ambient key fragment generation, and ineligibility to participate in Clash tournaments or claim End of Season Rewards.

You should be happy you're not one of the otherwise-normally-well-behaved summoners out there that has one off-day and tells someone to (ban-worthy 3-letter acronym here)

Don't be that guy.

Just take the lickin' and keep on tickin, friendo. We all have our days. I wouldn't think about it too much. Just be cognizant of it moving forward and you should be fine (provided you're normally as well behaved as you're claiming here)
