just got a 14 day suspension for making fun of a guy hard flaming me. If I knew that making people upset then them taking me out of context in all chat would get me suspended, I wouldn't have done it, but Riots suspension system is broken. I am beyond pissed off because I was not even toxic, get accused of throwing and I get reported for that shit. Sick of riot endorsing bullying.
Riot bans players for standing up to bullies and making fun of them
Your title alone pretty clearly demonstrates that you weren't standing up to them, you were just bullying them back. Two wrongs don't make a right, and you're no better than the first bully.
Beyond that, bullies want attention. You responding to them is just going to make things worse, so the best course of action is to mute, report, and move on. "Standing up to them" isn't going to help anything - all they're doing is flaming, and admonishing them is just going to make them flame more.
And beyond that, you clearly weren't even standing up to them - as mentioned above, you stooped to their low and became a bully yourself.

Breaking the rules in retaliation is still breaking the rules. If you got a 14-day ban, you either A. Have had a history of prior punishments, including at least one 10-game Chat Restriction and one 25-game Chat Restriction, or B. Committed an egregious chat offense, such as using hate speech or encouraging self-harm. I'm gonna go ahead and guess this was a case of scenario A.

If you are intentionally making people upset, then yeah, you're going to get punished for it. Them "taking you out of context" is irrelevant.
...but Riots suspension system is broken.
And what makes you say that? That you're not allowed to turn around and harass people for being toxic? The rules apply both ways, and they don't just suddenly disappear when one person breaks them.
I am beyond pissed off because I was not even toxic...
That really isn't for you to decide. The IFS clearly sees things differently, and I don't doubt that if you were to submit your chat logs for peer review, we would similarly be able to point out where you crossed the line.
...get accused of throwing and I get reported for that shit.
False accusations mean nothing. If you got reported for something you didn't do, you wouldn't be punished.
If you want to discuss your punishment, you should submit your chat logs for peer review. Otherwise, bear in mind that we're inclined to take your assessment of your own behavior with a grain of salt.
Sick of riot endorsing bullying.
Riot doesn't endorse bullying. That's why they punished you, and they'll punish the other bully if they get reported.
What you need to understand is that you are not Riot's rule-enforcer. If someone is breaking the rules, you report them, and Riot will handle them appropriately. Taking things into your own hands just makes it more likely for you to get punished for what is basically vigilante justice.
No they dont. Riot bans you so you will spend more money on your favorite items and skins. They do not give a fuck about anything other than money. If they truly wanted to stop toxic players from playing again they would link an account to a phone number instead of just an email. One account per person per number.
making fun of someone kinda sounds like bullying especially if that person is alrdy mad.
If you didn't know that means it's your first punishment. If your first punishment was 14 days then you used a zero tolerance phrase. You shouldn't have to be told that some language is unacceptable, at the least, among mixed company.
Thats not the system being broken, thats the system working as intended. You just didnt understand the rules. There is no context where making fun of someone is allowed in game. Mute, report, move on. Stop fighting strangers in chat.
There is no 'standing up' or 'self defense' in a situation where you are not at any risk of physical harm or of having your livelihood diminished. You can simply mute the other player if you don't like what they say. Having said that, I don't like how Riot bans people for verbal offenses. The other players could have also muted you so it goes both ways.
