14 day bans for inting
this should not happen. if i had my way, if someone is 100% proven to have inted. they should be instantly permabanned the same as hatespeech.
DISCLAIMER. this is assuming they have actually been caught

Good think you dont have your way then
The problem is unlike a sporting event, there isn't a referee. So a computer has to make the calls.
The other night I was in my promos and had a teammate get his champ banned so he declared he was going to run it down mid. Oh boy did he ever. To the tune of 0/27/0. He was first blooded around the 30 second mark or so. We actually hung in there quite a while despite playing a 4 v 6 game.
With that said, I think an instant permaban is too harsh. Sadly, this player did not get ANY punishment as he continued to play match after match, but I feel like a 14 day ban would have been on point.
I think the more important thing is being able for the system to correctly identify inting. With a harsher punishment, it would probably be even more gun shy to trigger bans due to the harshness.
people keep bringing up false positives. IM TALKING ABOUT THE ONES WHO HAVE ALREADY BEEN PROVEN GUILTY
It's almost impossible to prove that somebody is inting because like some of the board mods and others think that "They are just having a bad game" but as long as they are nice they can go 0/10 all day and ruin game after game. Sad that you have to post vids to youtube and hope they get enough play to get punishments for an act that ruins more games than toxic players do.
Because people screw up, and do stupid shit. Nothing short of trying to actually destroy Riot's servers could warrant an instant permaban. Even hate speech is typically, for a first offense, only a 14 day. A permaban over one game? One game someone might have simply been unbelievably tilted in?
The purpose of Riot's system is to discourage bad behavior and to encourage reform. Instantly swinging the ban hammer is a terrible way to get reform to happen.
I agree. If you are level 1 and the first thing you do since the game started is run down mid, you should be instantly perma'd. However if you show signs of playing normally at the start and then you start inting due to other circumstances, 14 day ban to give player chance to reform is fine
Personally I think that 10 days is sufficient I was once falsely accused of inting when I wasn't. so is there a way to appeal?
Signed.
