EDIT: Thanks for the feedback. Everyone can feel free to continue commenting, but I likely won't read the rest. I now understand two things that I did not before:

  1. I repeated "zero-tolerance words," and, regardless of context, I was rightfully subjected to penalty.
  2. Multiple reports, and single reports, are treated identically and so there is no reason to try to implore others to report.

Thanks again for all clarifications everyone, hopefully my situation could serve as a lesson to others. Mute, report, and move on (I might put that on a t-shirt).


Background: I have been playing since before Season 1, and never had any action taken against my account (chat ban, suspension, etc.). Today I received a 14 day suspension. In the in-client explanation, it gave one chat log as reason for the suspension...I'm trying to figure out how this got me suspended having never had a chat ban or anything else before. I was certainly argumentative, but the punishment does not seem to fit the crime to me; particularly, for a first-time offender.

Personal assessment: My only thought is that it was for the line:

RageExtreme: "retard, f--g, f--gg--t" that feels like the vocab i would expect from you,

where I was quoting the other player, expressing that their game play and verbiage were equally toxic. Given that I was quoting him, and expressing that I don't agree with that language -- rather than expressing it towards anyone -- I'm not sure though.

Questions: Does the suspension seem fair, as a first-time punishment, given the chat log (given me being argumentative/toxic during the game)? Do you guys think it was in error, believing I was using those nasty slurs towards somebody?

Chat log: Game 1 Pre-Game RageExtreme: pref jg In-Game RageExtreme: gj RageExtreme: he had 3 RageExtreme: to wus 2 RageExtreme: care...we used all ults for that lol RageExtreme: why you walk away at first man....it was free kill...then why go in when im leaving? RageExtreme: like... RageExtreme: either do or do not RageExtreme: dont decide not to, then bait, then get us both killed RageExtreme: yeah RageExtreme: i was just harassing him RageExtreme: and keeping there RageExtreme: then was backing out RageExtreme: so you could turret or altar etc RageExtreme: i don't get you man RageExtreme: we burnt flash RageExtreme: be happy RageExtreme: back out RageExtreme: talk to 0-7 ahri RageExtreme: not saying she is RageExtreme: why you fighting garen first... RageExtreme: setup with us RageExtreme: kill the other two RageExtreme: you are just fucking trying to lose RageExtreme: you are literally chasing him RageExtreme: in lane RageExtreme: exactly RageExtreme: trying to lose RageExtreme: wtf you talking about RageExtreme: we are there RageExtreme: setting up in bush RageExtreme: on obv collapse RageExtreme: and you still chasing him RageExtreme: in lane RageExtreme: ffs RageExtreme: troll af RageExtreme: he's a troll RageExtreme: that's why RageExtreme: he wants out RageExtreme: we didn't ff RageExtreme: so now he isn't playing RageExtreme: "retard, f--g, f--gg--t" that feels like the vocab i would expect from you. RageExtreme: report for slurs wu RageExtreme: gg man, gl on your next Post-Game RageExtreme: report her for the slurs wu....she will def at least get a chat ban for that RageExtreme: save it man RageExtreme: you told us you quit RageExtreme: and that you were done RageExtreme: you started it by quitting RageExtreme: when we refused to ff RageExtreme: then ran it up lane at the garen RageExtreme: how was it 1v2 bot...if ahri was 0-7...

Yes, it's fair, and no, it's not in error.

There is never any reason to repeat what someone else says. By repeating their hate speech you became their mouthpiece. Others who likely muted them had to be subjected to the toxicity because you chose to repeat it.

Take it as a lesson to not try and take justice into your own hands if you are not qualified to do so.

Don't repeat what they say! Block, report and move on!

That line is exactly what got u banned. Fg and f***t are both 0 tol words. which 2 said in 1 game = 14d ban if 14d has been recieved recently it'll become a perma.

You flamed all game, kda shaming, threatening reports, intentionally making your team perform worse. Seems legit to me.
