I had a 14 day suspension, 2 months with 0 toxicity basically playing at least 7 games a day, and I got to 2nd checkpoint of honor 0. I understand that getting to honor 0 is because you're fucking toxic, but come on, it is so hard to get out of it that you don't really care of reforming. because a good honor standing of an account is honor 2, and you're really far from it.
well lets not forget all that time your honor was locked out.
and yes it should take some time to gain honor back after being punished
It takes 5+ months on average, at least for me. Banner in late April. Got honor lvl 2 in late July. Lvl 3 in August of the same year. You learn allot from being 14 day'd. You'll get there
It's because its done in mind with the idea of changing behaviour. If it was easy and quick to bounce back to high honors then people could/would "fake" themselves back to good standing by playing a couple of games without flaming. With the intent of changing behaviour, it will take time to truly change someone's attitude, its not something than can be done in like a week nor should it be.
Honestly I'm in the same boat, I was just off a 14 day suspension myself ending in mid January and at the moment I'm at the second checkpoint of honor 0, previously I was Honor 5 (including season 8) for every single season but I said a ZT word in chat during the preaseason so here I am now. It sucks but you gotta suck it up and keep playing.
