Hacked and Banned; Not Fair, Don't Care

TFW when Riot doesn't give a fuck if you were hacked or not.

I literally showed them the different IP addresses that logged into the account and they didn't give a shit. xD

"TEMPLAR IYTSUNA April 23, 2017 10:54 Hello,

To the other players in this match it didn't matter who was playing at the time, they were only made victim to the excessively toxic chat exhibited by this account. For this reason I will not be able to reverse or modify this suspension. With our new Instant Feedback system we try to offer as many warnings as possible to players that they will be losing their accounts if they continually are negative towards others in their matches. If a player then chooses to be negative anyways then they are responsible when we are forced to revoke their rights to use our content by having broken our Terms of Use.

If you think you were hacked, you can ask them to transfer you to the fraud department for an account review.

But if you did anything such as account sharing (or were just toxic yourself), I suggest you not waste anyone's time.

Never shared my account with anyone and never had a single punishment before the hack.

They can't know for sure if your account was really hacked. And since the "hacker" displayed excessive toxicity on your account, the riot team figured it was just you, but to be safe, they won't un-ban you because they don't know 100% if you were actually hacked.

It's probably a little more complex that that.

You are, however, ultimately responsible for your own account security, as per the Terms of Use. Riot tries to help when it can, but in cases like this they often can't lock an account in time. So for the OP it sucks, yeah.

Question for you though, OP -- how did you get the IP addresses that accessed the account? I would have imagined that information would only be accessible on Riot's end (aside from your own IP address, of course).

I am not completely sure I had a friend of mine do it (he's a computer programmer.) I assume he did it through the command prompt.

As for figuring out WHERE the IP address is, that part is easy. You can Google it and figure it out in minutes.

The IP address that logs into YOUR account is saved to your LoL folder somewhere I do know that much.

You know nothing ...

Different IP addresses don't mean much. If I played on my laptop and went down to a Starbucks to play, I would have a different IP address there. Additionally, some setups give you a new IP address every single time you turn on your computer. If it was different MAC addresses it would be much more damning. It is why Riot/most major game companies have gone away from IP banning, because it is so easy to get a different IP address.

Fair point. Actually never thought about that.

Although the IPs are hundreds of miles apart.

That's not a thing.
