Riot is the most corrupt game company in history

Everything they do is corrupt, evil, and likely illegal. I'll give you a prime example, their ban system is completely automated and 4 tiers. First is 10 game chat restrict, second is 25 game chat restrict, third is 2 week ban, last is permanent. Now when I say automated, I mean it, you can and will be banned if 3 or more teammates report you. Let me say that again, you can and will be banned if 3 or more teammates report you...and there's nothing you can do to dispute this, you have no reprieve, you have no options. Bought skins? too bad, Riot just stole from you, and short of a chargeback you're not getting a refund. They've been operating like this for a long time, and it's a shame they've been allowed to get away with it.

This is not how the system works at all. 1 vote == 9 votes as far as it is concerned. The content of your chat is what matters.

Stop blaming others for your own problems. Your mass report claim is complete fabrication, and your attitude is repugnant.

Its not stealing as you never owned the items to begin with btw.

You are actually renting the licenses for everything from riot. Which is why the can LEGALLY take it away.

You were given many warnings, yet you continued to be toxic on your own accord. good riddance.

I don't think kicking players out who are swearing and belittling others in a game where children are present is evil.

I mean Blizzard bans people from paid games like Overwatch, WoW, Diablo, and Starcraft all the time for doing just that, with a similar automated system.

Just because someone spent money doesn't mean they shouldn't be banned. If someone walks into a bar, drops a thousand dollars for drinks and then the very next thing they do is smack someone with a bottle, I would expect them to be thrown out, regardless of how much they paid.

i talked to a riot worker he told me that even if all 9 will report you as long as your chat is clear the tribunal system wont do anything how ever if the chat is clear and you still got banned you can talk to riot worker and file a ticket if its not working then and they still don't do anything about it you can literally sue them i red the terms and conditions and riot is allowed to take your skins champs and anything else in certain conditions however if your ban is unjustified as well and no one do anything about it you can sue them

I have a slight feeling OP got banned and now is trying to sue Riot (well, claiming to, because will never actually do it).

Wait, wait, wait....Have they forced you to purchase any skin? No! How are they corrupted if they banned you and you had some skins?

Just imagine if arrested police officer says "But I have arrested 20 serial killers how can you arrest me now"?

Every single ban is deserved, every single chat restriction, etc.

No, no annnnd no. Riot did not steal from you. What you bought was rp, they gave you the rp. You chose to buy skins. And again, in their TOS, they can, at any time, for any reason, chose to revoke your license to use their, check it THEIR, product. You do not own anything in you're account.

You are paying to be allowed to use their skins that they made, not you or anyone else.

Any and every game company with a brain has this to prevent theft of their product, or attempta to claim their work as your own along with other reasons.

So again, it is not theft, it is not illegal. If you got permabanned, thats on you and no one else.
