Your use of "addon" is confusing, but I assume you're asking why there isn't a program where players can earn back their permabanned accounts.

They used to have one where you could level a new account to 20, and if you showed you had reformed you could get your banned account back. However, the success rate was abysmal, as nearly every player went right back to being toxic when they got their account back so the program was closed.

Dude. Stop. Riot has MILLIONS of players to deal with! They aren't gonna let one special snowflake get their account back! You, and the other thousand and two people that posted about these in the boards...

I do realize that, but people don't deserve to get permanently banned for trash talking.

I do admit, chat restriction WOULD BE BETTER for trash talking. R.I.P. Dunkey

Since you brought up Dunkey here is Lyte's official response to it back he still worked at Riot Games:

What do you think about vgdunkey's ban?

It's really unfortunate. Many Rioters love Dunkey's content, and I've unloaded my share of "Not even close babyyyyy" jokes around the office; however, we really can't show favoritism to someone just because they are a pro or a known content creator. This isn't really a debate about whether trashtalking is OK or not OK in games; we've talked a lot in the past about how we're OK with players bantering with their friends but you should be careful when interacting with strangers who may not understand your intentions--especially if you're using hate speech or slurs. We have a zero tolerance policy against hate speech, racism, homophobia, and sexism and that policy stands whether you're a random player, a pro player, or a Youtube celebrity.

This also really wasn't a case about intentional feeders and whether it's OK to be toxic towards other toxic players--there wasn't even a Malphite in the game that got him banned and either way, retaliation just isn't OK because it makes the experience worse for everyone else in the game.

We know that players have been asking us to be more aggressive against intentional feeders for awhile, and it has taken us a bit longer than we'd like. We do consider gameplay toxicity just as serious as verbal toxicity, and are launching a new Intentional Feeder Detection system in 5.18 that can ban feeders within 15 minutes of matches. We're starting with conservative settings to make sure the system would not ban players for having the rare bad game, even if it was a 0-10 type of bad game but this is a great first step to aggressively tackling intentional feeders.

At the end of the day, this incident sucks for everyone. We respect that Dunkey hasn't posted his Reform Card, and I'm not going to post it either. Best wishes to him in the future.

[slayer-jinx-unamused] I'm not pushing some kind of petition to get his account back. He's done with the game. In a way, it woulda been yeeeeewaaaaaars (sorry) until he would have been able to quit. That, or a long time. The ban of Dunkey was like letting him free. Besides, his newer content is better, and u can tell he has more fun making those. Wow. This took ten hours to write...

Trash talk has its limits, and trolls won't stop trolling just because you verbally abuse and harass them, so it's just a waste of time. From Ulanopo's Knowledge Base:

Trash talk is part of all competitive sports. It happens all the time in the pros.

Yes and no. Yes, trash talk occurs, but it has definite limits. Most of the things that are punished in game (racial, ethnic and homophobic slurs, sexism, etc.) would also earn you a hefty fine in professional sports.

A Tumblr List of NBA Fines (http://nbafines.tumblr.com/) (My personal favorite on that site is this indefinite suspension (http://nbafines.tumblr.com/post/1010368028/3-12-96-the-nba-suspended-mahmoud-abdul-rauf-den), simply for refusing to stand during the National Anthem.)

A List of NFL Fines for Taunting (http://www.spotrac.com/fines-tracker/nfl/all-years/fines/taunting/)

NBC Article on Fines Agreed to by the NFLPA (http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/12/01/bizarrely-specific-nfl-fines-come-from-agreed-league-union-schedule/) "Excessive profanity or other unsportsmanlike conduct triggers a minimum fine of $10,500."

NHL Office of Player Safety (http://www.nhl.com/ice/eventhome.htm?location=/playersafety) Brendan Shanahan is the ****ing Bad Santa of the NHL. Did you know that his Office of Player Safety watches every minute of every game, from multiple angles? He sees and hears EVERYTHING, including swearing.

... and the grand finale! Marge Schott (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marge_Schott), who was forced out of ownership of the Cincinnati Reds for racist comments and pro-Nazi sentiments.

If you've really reformed then great, but you're still not getting your account back. Bans for behavioral issues are never overturned.

Permabanned accounts are not just sitting somewhere in a RIOT servers waiting to be Unbanned, based on the length and age of your ban, i'm going to assume that account is gone, deleted, wiped from the face of digital space. There is nothing anyone can do or say to get it back. move on
