I really need help guys - looking for any normal and fair moderator who actually cares

Archer RAMPAGE··1 votes·1,971 views

short story: i had this game with some sick troll, he fed, he stood afk and at the end made me tilted and i started swearing. he was FOCUSING on that and after he got what he wanted - he said now he had reason to report me. so i got 10 game chat restriction and honor block. first i tried to explain this situation to first support yesterday - they ignored it and talked BS with smiling face and kind manners. today i wrote to support again - this time to atleast get exact info about my honor and when it will be unlocked and ofcourse i still get BS then i request to review my ban and i create ticket for that. after that i get absolutely same obscure answer (which also says they didn't even bothered to check the game) - neither of them actually cared to check the game and see what was what.

they even proved that with their words - they said they WILL investigate the guy - so that means he was unpunished 'till this time, but i got punished for being human and having patience limit.

thing that made me mad about these guys - they talk too obscure, when i wanted my goddamn numbers - how many games/honors till it unlocks - so if it will take too long i'll just move to another server. they don't respect my time.

long story with chatlogs:

here's the chatlog with second support:

Chat started: 2018-06-08 11:10 AM UTC

(11:10:40 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: hello, i contacted support yesterday but it seems you weren't motivated enough to help out even by a little bit. first things first - i got honor-locked unfair but i'm forgiving that to riot, only problem i have is i don't even have fun anymore playing games and not knowing when my honor will unlock. please let me know exact time or quantity of games/honors required to unlock my honor. it's already hard to get new champions as it is with ip gone, playing games with no loot is just too much for me, i think if you won't be able to help me in any way, i'll loose all interest in league of legends. (11:10:44 AM) *** Roltube joined the chat *** (11:11:18 AM) Roltube: Hello Summoner, I'm Roltube. I need to find your account in our database first. (11:11:28 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: it's Archer RAMPAGE on EUW (11:11:46 AM) Roltube: Ok, searching for it, will be back (11:13:54 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: operator i was talking to "Adaina" basically dodged every problem of mine, said it is how it is. that i should play and play and "SOMEDAY" it will unlock. (11:13:59 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: i don't agree with that. (11:14:34 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: i need to know exactly how much i need to work for it to unlock, if it's too much i'll just move to another server and create new account. (11:15:00 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: i don't have time to play on "SOMEDAY"'s promise if you get what i mean (11:16:00 AM) Roltube: I saw that you recently received a chat restriction, that is what locked your honor in this case. Penalties applied to honor are not time-based, meaning that it depends strictly on the number of games you've played since your honor level took a hit. (11:16:44 AM) Roltube: I understand your dissapointment, however, we can't estimate exactly how long it will take to unlock your honor. (11:16:45 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: ok then, tell me exact number of games/honors required to unlock it. some people say it takes 4-5 months, i really don't want to play without loot for 5 months. (11:17:02 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: so you're telling me i should leave this account?! (11:17:15 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: and all that hours i've put into it is gone?! (11:17:57 AM) Roltube: I can however give you a piece of advice to speed things up, you might also want to consider going for a few matches on other maps besides Summoner's Rift, like Howling Abyss or Twisted Treeline, which can generally be ended faster and save you some precious time. When you get honored, each tick grants a slight increase, however, if you manage to get all your team mates to honor someone (doesn't matter who, and it's easy to cooperate on honors when going with premades), the boost to your honor gained is slightly higher, even when below the standard honor level 2. (11:19:09 AM) Roltube: If you play on a daily basis, from my personal experience, it can take up to 1 month to unlock it and get back on track. (11:19:48 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: ok so 1 month without loot. ok where should i apply for case review then?! (11:20:31 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: because i really think it's against my rights. i see someone cursing way worse than i did and never getting any punishment, i need case review because i was wronged by moderation. (11:21:03 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: and i mean EVERY game, someone using way worse language than i did. (11:21:11 AM) Roltube: To clarify, we're not holding this info regarding your honor progression back just to tease you, Summoner. The variables upon which honor progression are based are encrypted and we have not run any statistics to quantify an exact way to measure an "xp bar" to your next honor level-up or a specific number of games required until you get back on track. But, I repeat, from my personal experience, if you play daily and don't flame from now on, you can get unlock it in one month. (11:21:33 AM) Roltube: I can perform the review, if you wish. (11:22:37 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: yes i want review. listen, there is one thing called humanity - i know riot rules says i must be emotionless like tree stump but i'm human, i have my patience limits. in this game where i said to a guy "KYS" he was trying to tilt whole team for 20 minutes. (11:23:06 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: you don't expect from normal human being to never get angry do you?! check the game yourself and see yourself. (11:23:36 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: i never "flame" - i only hate afk'ers and those who feed enemy team on purpose and i got tilted. (11:23:55 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: so how do i deserve 1 month no loot - i don't get it. (11:25:05 AM) Roltube: An investigation will take some time, so I will need to turn this chat into a ticket. I will be back to you with an answer regarding your case in the next half an hour. (11:25:31 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: ok thank you, i hope someone will actually check the game - not decide everything from chat. (11:26:12 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: that guy deserves ip ban for being really "unsportsmanslike" - i never, lemme stress this enough NEVER ever stood afk (11:26:17 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: or fed enemy team on purpose (11:26:28 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: i'm good player and i deserve my redemption. (11:26:32 AM) Roltube: No worries. That's the least I can do for you, considering the situation at hand. Here's the link to your new ticket: https://support.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/requests/35028169 It will take a few minutes after you close this chat for that link to start working, sometimes five minutes or more, so you will have to close the chat before the ticket will be created. (11:26:47 AM) Archer RAMPAGE: ok thank you (11:27:25 AM) Roltube: you're welcome. if you're not sure how to close the chat it's like this: Options > Big red button

keep that in mind that this is second guy i contacted about my problems. then i get answer on my ticket in several hours.

Hello again Summoner,

I apologize for the delay, I'm back with an answer.

Having a look over the logs from the audited game resulting in your current restriction, as far as I can see, your punishment was rightfully placed.

I'll also list them below with highlights on what exactly went wrong, so that you can understand why we did what we did. Please be advised, this reply may be somewhat lengthy because of the listed logs:

[0:41] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): in normal lvl 11 [1:08] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): and also because there was high chance this would happen [1:48] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): wtf? [5:11] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): stfu already it's lvl 11 and i'm testing stuff [6:55] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): taking whatever i want isn't reportable - afk is ^^ [9:10] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): dude stfu already, i'm playing for fun [10:43] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): what lcs are u talking about u mentally retarded kid, this is LVL 11 GAME!!! [11:00] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): report this shit kled [11:18] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): kled u are reported for assisting enemy team [12:27] [All] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): see nightblue zoe jungle u moron :D [12:42] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): -_- facepalm [13:52] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): this kled is so reported [16:14] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): because u are [16:33] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): u know what riot hates most?! [16:37] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): AFK'ers [16:55] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): sure i tell you that after u stand afk [17:03] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): i'll let riot decide that ^^ [17:12] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): i'm reporting u for afk and assisting enemy team [17:18] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): since u left kata die on purpose [18:12] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): AFTER u assist enemy team and stay afk - for me to think u are mentally retarded is just logical [18:14] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): not flaming [19:21] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): yeah i don't think that calling mentally retarded person - mentaly retarded is offensive [19:24] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): and u are one [19:40] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): because your mother give u birth [19:54] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): see? u can't even diferentiate mid and jungle [20:13] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): good boy [20:17] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): want a cake?

I understand some matches can get really heated, but it's never worth giving in to your rage as this can affect others who are not involved in the cause of your frustration. On top of ruining their experience as well (which I'm sure is not your intention), all you can accomplish by lashing out in chat is to get yourself punished, which isn't worth it just for a troll if you ask me.

Regarding this issue, the reason for your restriction was not because you decided to make a stand and prove the trolls wrong. It was merely for how you decided to vent all the tension in chat.

Rest assured, a game can get unbearably frustrating for any of us, so we know how that's like. The only difference is how everyone chooses to react to such.

The 10-game chat restriction is the first and most lenient punishment in our escalation steps. Please keep in mind that the chat restriction is meant as a warning that you should improve your behavior. We will not turn this punishment into a suspension unless this kind of behavior keeps resurfacing.

While the example you gave below with that AFK player is indeed something unacceptable, we can not generalize the punishments to encompass everyone merely for the sake of a few players who deliberately wish to ruin a game. Manual investigations may do the trick, but that takes time.

I completely understand where this plea is coming from as it can surely take the fun out of things, but we are doing the best we can to trim down all negative aspects of the community to improve quality of life, however that can be easier said than done, especially with a growing player-base.

We will go ahead and investigate said player's behavior, that has no impact on your own punishment as each behavior is audited individually without any circumstantial content taken into account.

In the end, everyone that deserves a penalty, be it a chat restriction or an account suspension, will most certainly get it eventually. I can assure you there's no avoiding that and it applies to the one who ruined your game as well.

Please be advised however that disciplinary actions are confidential and we will not divulge the outcome of this investigation.

I understand how this lack of information could easily make someone who consistently reports bad behavior think that nothing is being done on the matter, but all I can do is assure you that such is not the case.

While we can't divulge info on other people's punishments, sometimes they choose to do so themselves, so if you need proof, head to the Boards and go through the posts. That should clarify things.

Also, honor drops are directly tied into the process of disciplinary punishment. It's an extent of what happens when the rules are crossed, and must be played through if you wish to get back on track with your honor level and honor rewards.

I sincerely hope you do not take this personally and instead view it for what it is. Actions have consequences, and just like anything else, we each have to own up to them.

Roltube, Player Support Specialist

"This is the dunk train, running you down."

  1. support copying only my chat to make me look like really bad person in my own eyes and shame me.

2.they absolutely ignore my request to see honor progress - it's my goddamn honor ffs - make honor visible, since they say it progresses but slowly - i want to see the progress. will it take 1 week, 1 month, 5 years?! -_-

3.after my 1000 requests to check goddamn game, ofcourse still noone checked it and they say they will "investigate" the guy. if you've seen goddamn game in the first place - you would need no further "investigation".

this is support (remember second one) not giving a damn about players.

and i should be calm and don't protest this kind of carefree approach?!

is there any normal moderator in whole RIOT moderation who can tell me what is going on. this is how you treat your users?!

repeating "I completely understand" 50 times like broken record doesn't mean nothing if you actually don't understand anything.

"We will go ahead and investigate said player's behavior" - by saying this they literally told me that troll was unpunished untill this date. if anyone wants to see that game from moderation, any normal moderator who actually cares - they could easily do that.

i will be really really grateful.

"This is the dunk train, running you down." - was only truth this guy has spoken.

I'm afraid if you've already talked to Player Support than no one here can help you. I understand that sometimes a game gets frustrating, but insulting and belittling other players isn't allowed, even if you're frustrated, and even if they started it first. Behavior like the behavior below just isn't okay, is definitely offensive/insulting, and will absolutely get you punished.

You may disagree with that on a personal level, but this is simply how the system works, whether or not you personally agree with it.

[10:43] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): what lcs are u talking about u mentally retarded kid, this is LVL 11 GAME!!!

i don't agree with: 1.witholding information about that troll being punished or not from me for no reason (none given). 2.witholding information about my locked honor progress so i plan my time accordingly for no reason (none given). 3.not giving enough f to actually check the game. (i mean that's why they pay you damn it).

and about those angry words in chat - that's exactly what i'm saying - by copying only my chat - they make me feel like bad guy but no, i remember exactly how that guy acted or talked in chat and i would tilt again if that sick in the head maniac was on my team feeding and afk'ing, he needs to be IP banned for life for focusing to ruin someones game. intentional feeding and afk are the definition of "unsportsmanslike" behaviour and yet somehow i'm getting punished.

I'm surprised they didn't give you the reason: account punishments are kept secret for individual privacy. As such, they're not going to tell you the result of their investigation of another individual.

2.witholding information about my locked honor progress so i plan my time accordingly for no reason [none given].

Honor progress is regained by playing games, and depends on your behavior in those games and how frequently you are honored. As such, it's hard to give a specific timeline.

3.not giving enough f to actually check the game. (i mean that's why they pay you damn it).

They likely did check in game if you reported someone for intentionally feeding. They simply wouldn't tell you due to point #1.

and yet somehow i'm getting punished.

Because you broke the rules on acceptable behavior, yes. Someone else breaking the rules (and hopefully getting punished for it) doesn't give you a free pass to do the same.

If you disagree with this assessment that's fine, but please note that this is just how the system works, and you not liking that will not get you a different outcome. Ultimately you can either accept it and change your behavior, or you can keep getting punished, or you can find another game with different behavioral rules.

"Honor progress is regained by playing games, and depends on your behavior in those games and how frequently you are honored. As such, it's hard to give a specific timeline." - still don't get why it's impossible to show honor progress by little status bar in game?! if it's based on honors - then it should be refilled with honors regardless of time and i would know how much honor i'd need. if it's based on time - then it would refill as time passed so there's no need to get honors.

"They likely did check in game if you reported someone for intentionally feeding. They simply wouldn't tell you due to point #1." - but then how comes he gets to know i got punished?! i mean that sick troll kled guy.

I can't tell you why that choice was made: I can only tell you how it works.

but then how comes he gets to know i got punished?! i mean that sick troll kled guy.

He knows that someone got punished. He doesn't know it's specifically you. The feedback pop-up does not include your name, although yes, you can sometimes use process of elimination to know who it was (note that even then he doesn't know WHAT punishment you got).

ban baited? is that a thing? should i write them again?! i really got "ban baited" but didn't knew it was a thing.

I'm responding to this as I say you post it elsewhere -- you did not get bait banned. Being bait-banned is when someone says "type hate speech in chat or I feed," which is basically a threat to do something unless you break the rules. It is NOT when someone feeds or trolls or flames you and you respond by insult them out of frustration.

Kei1433 votes

So let's say it 25 games of neutral behavior to unlock honors.

If you decide to flame in every single one of those games, then your honors will not be unlocked as you displayed negative behavior instead neutral behavior. Which means you still have 25 more neutral games to go (total 50 games).

If you decide to be super positive in those games, the system will be able to catch that and your honors will unlock in 10 games instead of the original 25.

This is the exact reason why we can't tell you how many games it takes as it is based on your behavior, and we have no idea how you would act in-game.

Chermorg5 votes

Someone else starting it does not justify you being toxic. Them investigating someone else doesn't just mean they went unpunished but only that they will look into it.

As the support agent has told you, your punishment was solely based on your behavior. If you want to try and claim your chat didn't deserve punishment, post your full, unedited chat logs from your reform card.

Archer RAMPAGE1 votes

as i said, i need some normal guy who really cares about customers to check that game because his actions were no less toxic. only difference is my toxicity was shown in chat and his in chat+game. he focused on getting me tilted and did everything untill i gave him reason to report me. that's sick sick behaviour. disgusting.

TheSnowyLeopard1 votes

and you were baited and decided to go along with it despite knowing full well what he was doing?

People need to stop feeding trolls. Otherwise, don't complaim when they successfully bait you.

[18:12] Archer RAMPAGE (Zoe): AFTER u assist enemy team and stay afk - for me to think u are mentally retarded is just logical

This is the only line needed to issue a punishment. Calling anyone retarded is unnecessary and uncalled for in game. It breaks the summoners code, that is the behavior code that you agree to when creating an account. It does not matter what anyone else in the game says or does, the only thing that matters is how you respond to it.

you chose to respond to it poorly and as a result, you are punished for it.

Archer RAMPAGE1 votes

"It does not matter what anyone else in the game says or does" - it DOES MATTER.

PLEASE, PLEASE don't act like saint and don't judge only one side with saints face who never cursed anyone. that's all i'm asking -_- we all have our patience limits. person literally acted like mentally challenged - what should've i called him?! "oh you baaad, baaad person"? - i'm human not some robot or six years old, i use cursing words, we all use them - and about riot agreement, i would be ok with my punishment if it wasn't selective. i get punished because my bad actions are shown in chat and he gets to walk away free because his bad actions were shown INTO ACTUAL game and nobody gave a f to check the damn game?!

my second issue is witholding honor unlock progress, which just seems like laughing at players aswell.

And the moment yours was reached, you should have muted the player rather than expecting the other 3 people in your team to listen to your slapfight.

You are not expected to put up with shitty chat. You are expected to not create your own.

Archer RAMPAGE1 votes

but he fed and assisted enemy team. i can't block that can i?!

and after hearing "they will investigate" that was last straw - so they "will" investigate, in the future - that's proof that noone even checked the game.

it's basically support saying, we don't care how unsportsmanslike player is in ACTUAL GAME, we only care what's in chat. i'm really really good player and i never ever did salty stuff in game, so that counts for nothing?! that's what hurts most.

Karunamon2 votes

and after hearing "they will investigate" that was last straw - so they "will" investigate, in the future - that's proof that noone even checked the game.

It's more like Riot has a (admittedly shitty and infuriating) policy of not commenting on what was done. What it boils down to though is every person has their own account history, and what they did is not even sort of relevant to what you did. They broke the rules yes, but that's between them and Riot.

I get you're upset but calling people retards is unsportsmanlike and unacceptable. Nothing anyone can do in game will make that acceptable. Your punishment was completely merited.

Archer RAMPAGE1 votes

but how come he got notified that i got punished and then sent me 50 friend requests just to gloat?!

again - selective punishment.

i'm not leaving this issue, i will try everything to get justice and maybe even change lol's policy about honor system.

Karunamon2 votes

Because punishment notifications are effectively random - they show up sometimes and sometimes they don't. I've been playing this game since 2011 and received ONE in my entire time here.

Also consider that he was right to report you, regardless of what he did or didn't do. You broke the rules.

i'm not leaving this issue, i will try everything to get justice and maybe even change lol's policy about honor system.

Enjoy bashing your head up against a brick wall like the rest of us then. We've been complaining about the inane aspects of this system for years, and nothing is ever done.

It does not matter what other people say in game, it matter HOW MUCH of and adult you are. I get told to kill myself often enough on this game, and I never flame back. I smile because o know they will be right here on the forum crying about it.

You flame, you get punished. The rest of us enjoy our video game. A 10game chat is nothing considering. You’re lucky.

You can’t stop feeders by flaming them so stop trying. Unless you wanna end up in low level forever stuck with all the other trolls who get prema banned and make new accounts

Marshbouy1 votes

person literally acted like mentally challenged - what should've i called him?!

you should not have called him anything, there is no need to call him anything.

i use cursing words, we all use them

everyone uses them, but you don't use them all the time and in all scenarios. For example, if your boss was to tell you that you were getting a 5k a year pay cut because the company is suffering, are you going to call him a retard?

No, you're not going to call him a retard because there are unwritten social guidelines that tell you that calling your boss a retard is not okay. In League of Legends riot is creating written guidelines to enforce that.

If you break the rules of the system that you are working in, you will face punishment for breaking the rules of the system.

Before pointing you windmills to charge, i want you to remember that you signed a term of service which states that if u break rules u get punished. Rest is clueless

Archer RAMPAGE1 votes

YES and by requiring from me to sign that agreement riot also takes responsibility to give punishments to everyone fair and square - if not, it should be said in agreement that some players will have different allowance and i wouldn't even join the game. also my second point - it's supports job to check the games when they are asked to review the case. that's why they get paid.

also it never says that honor should be witheld from player aswell - if it's also a rule, they should explain it why it is a rule instead of dodging question with obscure BS. since from my perspective it's just laughing at specific group of people (people like me) who like to plan everything, calculate time needed for each task and know their deadlines.

even prisons have "DATE and DURATION" of punishment for gods sake. why riot makes their users feel worse than prisoners?

Shukr4n1 votes

your perspective is worthless. if u got questions about rules u had to ask them BEFORE signing in. there s nothing forcing them to make FAIR rules.

they could have stated that after 1year u lose your account. it s up to you to agree it or not.

riot is a PRIVATE company. which created a FREE to play game.

maybe next time READ rules before signing.

if u dont like them u can quit the game WNEHEVER u want.

until that date. u follow rules.

You should have told support you were ban baited if you wanted them to look into the game instead of asking them to give you all this information theyd never give you as it would allow people to game the system.

It is a thing and its what youre trying to describe. Whether or not you did and whether or not it would be an applicable defense for your actions is debatable. Im not saying you totes did and rito will definitely reverse it, im just saying its what youre trying to say happened.

Hi, I'm not a mod or admin or player behavior specialist but I'm going to try and help you understand what is going on.

Next, let me say I'm sorry you've had this experience. Unfortunately, you're not alone and many of us empathize with your situation. I've played with trolls and I absolutely hate it and it tilts me, BUT I make a concerted effort to try and refocus myself back to the game. I have definitely gone tilt sometimes but let me tell you, I'm honor 4 right now and was honor 5 last time. I play games on basically a daily basis, so I'd like to think I have a fairly good grasp on controlling my tilt and behaving within the standards Riot has set forth.

(11:16:00 AM) Roltube: I saw that you recently received a chat restriction, that is what locked your honor in this case. Penalties applied to honor are not time-based, meaning that it depends strictly on the number of games you've played since your honor level took a hit.

So you got a chat restriction for your behavior. Just so you know, chat restrictions are the slap on the wrist. Don't take it personally, but do take it seriously. What Riot is doing with chat restrictions is telling you that they're noticing negative behavior that they want you to stop doing in the future.

I'm not going to quote your whole chat log but I did read it. Although you did not say anything terribly toxic, you did clog the chat up with arguing and complaining about your troll teammate. I completely understand that this is very frustrating, but Riot has been on a very strong push of trying to tell people that the purpose of the chat is to facilitate cooperation and teamwork building.

You definitely filled the chat with non-cooperative and non-teamwork building chat. This not only interferes with your own ability to cooperate and work with your teammates, but also interferes with your other teammates abilities to communicate with each other and cooperate as a team. I know there is the option of using voice chat in game, however, it's not mandatory to be in voice chat (and it shouldn't be mandatory) and although there is an alternative method and medium to create cooperation and build teamwork.... there's also an alternative to dealing with trolls and troll behavior.

  • Mute
  • Report at the end of the game
  • Move on

This is the most effective and that's why Riot wants you to use it. You waste little time typing, you don't unintentionally tilt your teammates when they read the arguing back and forth, and you spend more time focusing on the game and less time feeding trolls.

You got a slap on the wrist and don't take it so hard. It sucks getting locked out of honor rewards, BUT, it's a chat restriction. It's the lowest tier of punishment.

Try to keep your chin up and don't get baited by trolls. They want that response out of you because they know that once they hook you, they can bring you down. Don't give them the satisfaction of a response. Don't let them trick you into getting a punishment.

Fuck the trolls. Don't let the trolls win.

P.S. (Also, you don't get punished for swearing, I think Tantram has said it on the forums.... or some other red, but I definitely remember some authority saying you don't get punished for swears)
