Meme game turned into a 14 day suspension :(

Wife In Lantern·10/16/2018, 10:41:47 AM·3 votes·4,433 views

So I recently decided to play a few normal games with a 5 man q, Everything was fine we played a few games but on the game i was suspended for, a friend of mine decided to "troll" me and take my role. We were all on a discord and it was a pretty good time so we kind of messed around with each other. I didn't really take it seriously either. He told me he was going to dodge and we kind of laughed it off but because he wasn't paying attention, the game started and we had to play. I told him i didn't want to play a troll game so we decided just to ff at 15. We memed around and eventually we started talking about tyler1 in the loading screen. I thought that as we were going to surrender at 15 anyways there wouldn't be any real reason to play seriously so i "ran down" a friend's lane while we talked. He wasn't really serious about it either, we knew we were going to surrender at 15 so we just memed and joked the whole time. 15 minutes rolled around and everyone seemed pretty funny, we were cracking jokes left and right. Then a friend tells me that he's going to report me (to troll me) ofc, we all laugh about it but it turns out they actually all reported me. I didn't really feel like anything serious was going to happen, it was just a friendly game that turned into a troll game. I got a 14 day suspension notice the next game i tried to q up. I know that intentional feeding isn't a positive way to play the game, i just assumed that because we were going to surrender at 15, i could mess around a little. My friends were quite surprised at what happened and told me they're sorry for reporting. They have sent in seperate tickets from mine asking my account to be unbanned. I'm just checking with riot to explain the situation. I know what i did wasn't good and i'll even take the 14 day suspension, but please don't take away my end of season rewards, I really worked hard this season for diamond :( (It was pretty late, we were all pretty baked from midterms and just wanted to hangover on league) There was nothing serious or hateful about the feeding. I just kind of treated it it as a remake but i didn't think it would turn out like this.

That’s like 19 moron decisions in a row by you and your group.

And about 25 minutes wasted for the enemy team.

Was this a ranked game??

If it wasn't I'm going to be legitimately pissed for you, who the fuck reports about inting in norms (talking about potentially enemy reports not your friends)?!

Chances are you would need to get the 4 teammates to send tickets on your behalf as Sonic said. Looking at the match history I can accept the argument at face value 3 of your teammates being friends since I see that they've been in your games more than that one time.

But that 5th member is a toss up. Either they only rarely play with you (or anyone else that you're friends with), or this is the very first game that they grouped with you, or they weren't part of the premade period.

just to be clear... were you 5 premades or 4?

because if you were 4 and the odd one out reported you, i don't think there's gonna be a backsie

Well if I had been in that game I would have reported you anyways. I don't queue up for a 15 minute waste of time easy win so you can have fun "memeing" with your voice chat party. Fuck off with that. Give your opponents a real match ffs. Disrespectful as fuck. Enjoy the ban. I enjoy the fact that you got it.

I only read the title, but same thing happened to my friend. He was trolling around as Singed in a 5 queue and one of our friends reported him like an asshole and got him 14-day banned. I don't think Riot will revert the ban unfortunately because apparently trolling ruins the game for the enemies too.

That sounds unfortunate, but you're not completely innocent here. Even if your friends were okay with you intentionally feeding, there are more than 5 players in a game. Trolls can ruin the game for everyone, no matter on which team they are on.

If what you say is true and there are really 4 teammates sending tickets on your behalf, you have to be unbanned. Enemy reports, even though your team wasted their time, are not exactly relevant in this case.
