I was just talking shit with a friend in 5 v 5 flex.We were just saying swear words to each other for fun.He used the same type of language but he didn't get punished at all which i find funny.Of course i made a ticket but the only thing i got as a response is a copy and paste message. Even thought i never said anything to the enemy team or anybody else beside my friend.I even tried to explain the situation but the guy didn't give a damn. Will I just get punished for joking with a friend?

Hey there,

Genathos from Player Support here!

I have looked over your account and you got a 2 week suspension due to toxicity during the game. We have zero tolerance for words related to racism, homophobia, xenophobia, wishing harm to other players, hard flaming and even spam. Below is an example from your chat log :

[0:34] Jhin: time to run it down [1:19] Jhin: i need sustain [1:22] Jhin: with a inter in lane [3:26] Jhin: YOU [3:27] Jhin: DINT [3:27] Jhin: IGNITE [3:28] Jhin: HER [3:29] Jhin: FUCKIAWJRMNIAWR [3:46] Jhin: why would you not ignite her [3:47] Jhin: omfg [3:48] Jhin: kys [5:55] Jhin: yes [5:59] Jhin: you used your brain [6:11] Jhin: that worthless piece of junk [6:24] Jhin: fuk y [7:59] Jhin: why is cmaile here 24/7 [8:10] Jhin: fuck you [8:12] Jhin: dont flame my boy [11:04] Jhin: udyr? [11:13] Jhin: no [11:15] Jhin: shut up dog [13:50] Jhin: the sup diff is too big [14:07] Jhin: q first [14:07] Jhin: ape [14:14] Jhin: actually disgusting [18:40] Jhin: get support items [18:41] Jhin: noob [18:51] Jhin: actually kys [22:16] Jhin: aa faster [22:17] Jhin: bitch [22:32] Jhin: im nt preamde [22:35] Jhin: with this euw dogh [24:11] Jhin: kys [27:07] Jhin: lol [27:10] Jhin: kys [27:20] Jhin: i dont give you any of the rats i hunted today [27:34] Jhin: wont* [28:55] Jhin: i thought camile died [28:56] Jhin: lol [29:17] Jhin: save me next time [29:19] Jhin: useless sup [29:22] Jhin: excuses [29:33] Jhin: go for bar [29:34] Jhin: hello? [29:44] Jhin: what did you say hardstuck d5? [29:46] Jhin: for 10 seasons? [30:56] Jhin: legit inting [31:02] Jhin: 3 people on me [31:06] Jhin: and nobody is helping me [31:26] [All] Jhin: lets go [31:55] Jhin: i need someone to peel for me

As a player, I can totally understand how painful this situation can be, but we also have the duty to maintain a nice environment, otherwise the negative attitude will lead only to bad experiences for all those involved in the game. As you can see, you started targeting your teammates as well as your enemy team (which is understandable that you were trying to defend yourself since I read the entire chat log, but not justifiable - we treat each and every case individually and we do not take into consideration one player's actions to justify another's).

You know... retaliation to negativity with more negativity is considered an offence and it doesn't give you a free pass to be negative in return - fighting fire with fire will create a bigger flame and it will affect all the players leading to a bad experience :(

Now, just to make everything clear, it's negative and punishable; and yes, I know how frustrating it is to be matched with toxic players and yes, it sucks, but the best thing you can do is to report them at the end of the game or simply mute them. For example, I had some really bad games one day where all my teammates flamed me really hard and I felt offended >.< , but instead of responding with the same negativity I chose to open the Notepad and type in there all my frustrations. What I'm trying to say is that it's OK to get angry or tilted, we are humans after all, but if we answer with the same negative behavior things will just get worse.

I know you'll be upset - this is not really the outcome you were hoping for, and the account is still suspended, right? I mean, you've spent a lot of time on it, so it's understandable :(

Sorry mate, I wish I could have helped you but my hands are tied. I hope you won't be too upset with me though because I've tried my best to explain your situation and I really hope that now you understand it a little bit better.

Best regards, Genathos "There is life. There is death. And then there is me."

Yeah, that's totally friendly banter, and not some bullshit excuse for you to claim you didn't flame your support and your team. Totally undeserved ban there. Like, you should take this to Supreme Court, it's such an unjust banning.

If you want to talk privately with a friend, use a private method of communication.

Dude friend or not you said kys no matter to who you say it. Its just so not okay. You said it even 2 times. You derserved this one if it was for me it would be perma. [slayer-jinx-unamused]

Yeah, if you and your friend were the only ones in your premade, that means you've got three other people you're dealing with in the same match. And since you can't confirm that any of those three would be okay with what you said (it's almost certain that one of them wasn't, considering you got reported), there's no way you can appeal this ban.

Next time, if you're going to spew vitriol at your friend, don't do it in League chat. Find another place to spill it.

"For example... I felt offended >.< , but instead of responding with the same negativity..." They really are mostly dealing with young ass kids huh?
