RIOT Code of Conduct: Perma Banned Account

dantheman1325··1 votes·2,168 views

So Riot recently perma banned one of my account for calling people "trash" and what not in ranked games. In my chat restrictions I received the chat logs which, the worse thing, I said in any of the chat logs was calling someone "trash" or "garbage". I understand that it was not right to do that but my problem with this company is that they never show the entire chat log from the game only what I said. In some games, I have had people tell me to go kill myself as well as use racial slurs against me and homophobic slurs, yet when I reported them I never received an instant feedback report? So I guess this company would rather let players who are racists and homophobes stay in the game while someone like me who calls people who feed trash be completely banned from playing ? Furthermore, in their Summoners Code, they encourage ignoring players who flame and to mute them but very time I did that , they were quick to respond with their own tirade. So the people who responded to me with their own expletives should have also been banned or chat restricted as well, not just me, since they proved to be no different. Yet this never happened , I never received any feedback on those players or their chat logs. So my point is that if Riot wants to punish me for calling people garbage then so be it , but read the entire chat logs from games and punish ALL parties involved because those who respond are just as toxic they just don't get reported. The only time perma bans should be given is when someone calls someone a racial slur or tell them to kill themselves because those type of people are the ones who should truly be removed from the game and are not. Those type of offenses should be an INSTANT BAN. In all my tirades I have never done or would say anything of that nature to ANYONE. In the days leading up to my recent tirade I had reached an honor checkpoint which I had not reached in since before my account was issued a 14 day ban, so I was improving and trying to get better but yet Riot seemed to ignore all that because I called someone who went 1-7 and had no big items built 25 minutes into the game and was somehow in an entire TIER under me but yet was still placed in my game. I would like a RIOT employee to explain to me why people who has used homophobic and or racial slurs, is still allowed to be playing this game but yet someone who calls people trash or garbage is not ? PLEASE I beg of any RIOT employee to try to defend a player that has used a homophobic or racial slur, or has told someone to kill themselves.

dantheman1325: top and jg are a joke
dantheman1325: i cant hit a q? lmfaooo
dantheman1325: 4 and 12 trash
dantheman1325: killl lux u morons
[All]dantheman1325: and nobody cares ur trash
[All]dantheman1325: NOBODY CARES
dantheman1325: im done yall are so bad
dantheman1325: learn to dodge a skill shot
dantheman1325: top and jg reported for feeding

A top and jg who are a tier below the rest of the team, going 4 and 12 and 4 and 13 and still not wanting to surrender when they are at our base and I get banned for calling them out ?? And they still get to keep playing the game when they constantly feed in other ranked games (based on match history) and waste other people's time? I understand having a bad game on in a while because it happens to me but when it every other game and your constantly losing YOU should NOT be playing RANKED and should be temporarily banned from it.

I also ONLY received ONE 14 day ban before getting perma banned LOL This is why something like this should be subject to subjection but rather automated and have everyone involved punished equally.

If an employee sees my chat logs one may say " well this is not that bad" while another may think "omg this person is so toxic they need to be perma banned " yeah code of conduct should not be subjective unless it being judged my multiple people.

Yep. That's against the terms of use, so if you keep doing it you'll eventually end up banned after several warnings where your behavior does not change.

dantheman13251 votes

So what about the people that responded to me with similar tirades they don't get banned too ? Only me because I started it ? lmao So if I punch someone and they punch me back and we fight only one of us gets arrested ? Yeah that never happens both parties are always held responsible.

If you reported them (or someone else on your team did) than their behavior will also be judged, and the system will give them a punishment or progress towards a punishment as appropriate given their past behavior and previous warnings.

I should not have to report them RIOT should read the entire chat log and send out punishments accordingly to all parties involved. It is from the same game.

Nevertheless, that is how the system works. If you do not report someone, that is an indication that you did not find their behavior problematic enough to merit reporting.

No, I am just not the type of person to try to get someone banned for calling me trash but I will attempt to do so when something more extreme is said, such as one of the examples listed above.

Well, that's the point. As The Djinn said, if you don't report someone, that's an indicator that you didn't find their behavior bad enough to merit the IFS looking at - and potentially punishing - them.

If you want someone punished, you have to report them. Elsewise, the IFS isn't going to have any reason to assume that they broke the rules.

My point is that everyone should be punished accordingly which is what RIOT does NOT do. I used to report people for being toxic and from the few times that I did it, I never received an instant feedback report so I just assumed RIOT will only punish those who have been reported by multiple people in the same game, which is a joke to begin with. Someone who responds to my toxicity with their own should also be punished regardless if I am the only who reports them, but that simply does not happen because the system is broken. It caters to reports from multiple parties and ignores the ones with a single report unless it is for something EXTREME. I have also reported so many people for feeding/trolling and not ONCE did I ever receive an instant feedback on that so why even have that as option to report somebody for if nothing is going to be done about it.

The Instant Feedback Report is rare, as it's only supposed to be a reminder that your reports matter, not some 100% accurate sign that your report got someone punished then and there.

Look at it this way; the Instant Feedback Report only occurs if your report resulted in the player being punished - as in a mainline punishment, like a Chat Restriction or a Suspension. But, not every valid report will result in a punishment, though it will still push that player closer towards one.

So, perhaps the largest part of that inconsistency is the expectation that valid reports will always result in a punishment, when in reality, the majority of our valid reports are only pushing players towards that punishment, rather than triggering it.

And, no; the IFS does not require multiple reports per game to result in a punishment. One report is enough. It doesn't matter if the behavior is extreme or mild, if you report them, the IFS reviews their behavior and applies punishment accordingly.

The IFS doesn't care how many reports are filed, as long as it's a value greater than zero. So any number of reports from 1-9 will have the same result - review, flag if valid, and punish if necessary.

So then this accomplishes what ? The way I see it is if you respond to toxicity you are also toxic to the community , regardless of the number of reports your account has. That is like saying if 2 people committed a crime but one has done more than the other, then the other is automatically excused because they have not committed as many? That does not sound fair to me and neither does this system whose sole purpose is to get rid of toxic players.

"We will get rid of the MORE toxic players but the ones who are less toxic get to stay ".

How does that make sense?

TOXICITY should NOT be looked at as a numerical value but rather as a categorical variable which aims to seperate ANYONE who has ever been toxic from those who have never said anything.

That's not how it works. They're not excused. Their punishment track is just separate from yours, and though both of you broke the rules, it's probable that only one of you may get punished, while the other is pushed closer towards being punished.

They're not being excused, they're not getting off scott-free, they're just not as close to being punished as you were.

The instant feedback report is notoriously unreliable. I guess its not meant to tell you everytime action was taken, because other people's accounts arent actually any of your business. Its just meant to remind people that their reports are being reviewed, they're not just useless placebos. So I've heard. And yeah, insulting of any kind is against the rules, whether its calling people bad at the game, or comparing them to waste.

Also, the punishment for doing poorly in ranked is getting demoted. They should definitely continue playing ranked. They'll just end up playing in iron/bronze. Thats how its meant to be. They got matched against players a tier higher apparently, and you're sitting there insulting them for their performance lol come on man. From one dan to another, its only a game. Nothing wrong with being bad at a inconsequential leisure activity. Its not like theyre getting paid to be good.

They should not be allowed to be in ranked no matter their rank. If they feed the team loses and if they constantly they clearly should be practicing in NORMAL games.

"insulting them for their performance lol ... its only a game"

So who plays ranked to lose ? I am sure you do not and most people would not agree with you saying its just a game. Why? If this was the case then people would have nothing to play for other than just be playing normals. However, the games sole purpose is for players to eventually play ranked and try to climb the ladder and reach the highest rank possible. That is why the ranked system is in place. So, to some people this is not "just a game " look at the popular streamers they may act like its just a game but they make money from views and from being GOOD not from being bad and losing every game. They have to be good to continue to make money and support their own needs so for them its not just a game , its their JOB. In other words, some people do not just look at this a just being a game, but rather a JOB, or even an escape from their everyday reality and for others its competition to be the best or to get better and eventually start streaming, not have trolls feed every game they play in and be okay with it. How many streamers have you seen that do not talk shit about other people on their team being bad ?, yeah they may not type it in chat, but they are not any different from those who do.

Yeah but theres no rule saying you must play this game well. Some people cant help it even. Hence, we have an iron division. I know a guy whos still iron after 6 years of playing the game. He has some good matches against fellow irons. You may think that means heshouldnt play ranked, but i disagree. Meh. Not saying youre wrong, its just an opinion. You disagree with Riot and thats okay. Agree to disagree.

I never said there was but if there is an option to report players for feeding then they should also face consequences for their actions.

Is there an option to report feeders? Or is it intentional feeders? Because thats two very different things.

Intentional feeding should not be limited to running it down mid, if u are 0 and 3 and go back your lane and die as soon as you get there that is intentional, there should be no reason for someone to be 0 and 10 in 15 minutes other than dying intentionally. Even if they say they are "trying". Nowhere does it say that intentional feeding is only limited to running it down mid.

If you are trying to fight an opposing who has killed you various times and has an item or 2 advantage over you and you think you can comeback to lane and somehow kill them but end up dying (to nobody's surprise) then yes that is INTENTIONAL feeding. No questions about it.

If you know you are 0 and 3,5,10,or 20 etc and try to fight an opposing laner that you fed knowing you have no chance of killing them, then that is 100% INTENTIONAL feeding, whether you think so or not.

So there is actually not much of a difference other than the person feeding will say they are "trying" just so they do not get reported.

You sound like you do this...but since that is your argument for what other reason should someone be 0 and 10 that does not involve intentional feeding, please enlighten me.

The only thing that "should" suggests is that RIOT, not ME, thinks they are other reasons why you would be 0 and 10 at 15 minutes .

Im sorry when you said feeding I thought you literally meant theyre just getting outplayed all the time. Yeah if you int, you should not only be banned from ranked, but your account should be permabanned. If youre just getting outplayed and enemies smell blood and keep targetting you with 2-3 man ganks, you shouldnt be banned from ranked. Ranked is the best place to improve. Normals are misleading. A lot of people dont try as hard in normies and play new shit they're not good at. I understand your POV, but its a very grey area tbh. People are smart and cunning. Its easy to make someone only slightly worse than you, look like a feeding newb. Its not like we are mastering an AI's pattern. You know what I mean? If they come back 0-3 to lane, and just straight 1v1 their fed opponent, yeah I consider that inting too. If thats all you meant, then say inting, not just "feeding".

Thats not how it works. You are responsible for your actions. What other people do are not your concern and they are held responsible for their own actions. The 14 day ban was your final warning, one which you chose to ignore. Now hopefully when you make a brand new level 1 account, you'll be more conscientious of your actions

"What other people do are not your concern"

By this logic, then I should not be punished for talking shit to people in all chat because I am not talking to them but rather someone else so therefore it is not that persons concern so they should not report me because i did not say anything to them ? Please try to come up with more logical arguments before commenting these "white knight" comments.

It is my concern because the player is on MY team; do not sit there and act as if you would not report me for trolling/inting every one of your games because me feeding the enemy team is not YOUR concern. Please get out of here with that BS.

"they are held responsible for their own actions"

No they are not lmao. The only reason people get punished is by other making it THEIR CONCERN and reporting the player otherwise NOTHING would be done. Reports are based on CONCERNS from OTHER people.

I had a very long discussion with the staff when i got banned 14 days 2 years ago , then another one few month laters but this one on sterile terrain

we agreed on a general rule of thumb for toxicity : #If you have neither something nice/neutral nore something important to say; #you might get punished if you talk.

Calling people "trash" is no exception.


2nd thing : "It's not a matter whether they will be banned, if someone does something reprehensible he/she WILL be banned. Our system will tack some of them but we therefore need you to report them. If you believe an extreme behavior has been left unpunished, please consider sending another ticket"

That's more or less what a rioter told me , and probably what they will tell you

they can't detect everyone , that's how AI works but that's their way to be sure the one they ban ARE 100% toxic players (very few exceptions are those TRYING to trigger the system) the only case i ever saw of someone unbanned was someone trying deliberately to test the system

If you see extreme behavior : Screenshot, keep game score, report ,monitor op.gg.

if he is still playing 1 week later, report him manually.

I understand that not everyone will be detected , HOWEVER someone who spews racial or homophobic slurs should be subject to automatic discipline without ANY chance of not being punished for it. I should not have to rely on a detection to decide whether or not a player like this may or may not be caught. I am sure, when compared to number of reports for "basic" toxicity, the numbers are much lower for those who use homophobic or racial slurs therefore, the system should be able to catch EVERY single player who exhbits this behavior in all chat.

Also what if someone says "kys" in chat and the person actually does, but the perpetrator does not get caught because of a faulty system what will RIOT say " oh I am sorry your son/daughter died because of online bullying but our system was not able to detect who said that to them, so there is not much we can do about it " does the possibility of that happening not sound like a joke to you because it does to me.

Yes they should not be exempt especially if they are not friends in real life but only through the game. If they do it to troll that is their own fault but if ANYONE considers someone to be toxic whether or not they are in a 5 man pre-made they should face the same punishments as everyone else.

The purpose or automation is so that everyone can be judged the same and follow the same process.

Now understand the system punishes people based on consistency x severity. Just becuase 2 players can have the same toxicity severity within the same game doesn't mean they have the same consistency. So it is possible that one player gets punished when the other just has that toxic game stored against them for the future.

So it is possible that one player gets punished when the other just has that toxic game stored against them for the future.

So you actually believe toxicity in someone can only occur once? Like I said, if the company wants to remove toxic players it should NOT have a "toxicity count",instead it should just look and say "yes this person is toxic vs no they are not toxic". Chances are that if someone is toxic in chat once they are prone to do it again. Toxicity stems from a psychological perspective which results from a need to lash at someone because they are not playing "right" or are doing something they do not like, which does not change based on the person i.e. they are already "born" toxic or they are not.

It almost like saying you can turn off someone's personality between games which is not really possible and most people that play this game have that "trait" and it will not change from game to game,

For example, I have always been competitive in ANYTHING so when someone doe not do something I like during a game that involvves a win or lose ,it is in me to confront them about it, it is not something I will do one time and never do it again.

So in summary, toxic players will be toxic always no need to keep count one time is enough to warrant a punishment.

Quite the opposite.

While it is possible that one gets punished for 1 game (and that is for multiple uses of extreme toxicity), the chat logs we normally see on these boards show that players are getting punished for their consistent use of mild to moderate toxicity.

Afterall, that's what **consistency ** x severity is about.

instead it should just look and say "yes this person is toxic vs no they are not toxic".

They can do that, but people will get punished for saying a single mildly toxic thing like asking for reports or saying ggez. If players don't get punished for mild stuff and ingame will be filled with minor jabs all the time cos people have learnt what the toxicity threshold is.

The current system does give people many chances, but it just sucks at letting players know they are being toxic and giving them chances.

So in summary, toxic players will be toxic always no need to keep count one time is enough to warrant a punishment.

While most people do control their emotions well, Riot knows that things can get heated in the moment and some people will explode. Riot defines someone as being toxic by how often they explode.

Not surprisingly most people whom get punished once learn not to reoffend the second time.

Eitherway, I'm just here to let you know how the current system works. You can debate with someone else on how you think the system should work and the definitions that Riot uses. But if you want me to clarify more on the current system, then ask away.
