I was banned for 14 days for banter between my irl friends in a normal game and they thought it would be funny to report me, while objectively yes i was toxic it was all for fun towards people who arent actually offended at all and i know them all very well. Is there a way to resolve this because i feel it is entirely unfair to ban me for having fun joking around with my friends.

Madliv2 votesjust saying, that you need more than 3 reports to be punished, also 14 days punishment comes after chat restrictions, also is the last punishment before permaban, so yeah, you are probably lying.
WinBoat1 votesWrong. You can be permanently banned without a chat restriction or 14 day ban. This account here was permanently banned, and never had a restriction or 14 day ban, but I contacted Riot, and told them I never had a chance or warning, and they reduced my account to a 14 day ban (although a chat restriction would have been preferred but im just happy with my account back no matter what and have been making good progress on reforming).
Kaioko2 votesBased on the type of punishment you got and the fact that you need to be reported more than once for that to happen; you have more issues than just your friends reporting you.
archerno11 votesWell, im sure u can think of ways to ger back at them. I can give u few ideas including laxatives and itching powder
SoundChaosDebug1 votesYou mix the itching powder into the drinks then rub laxatives all over the toilet paper!

Kei1431 votesmaybe it wasn't your friends that reported you..
or maybe they thought it was offensive deep down and reported you.
BlueThingamajig1 votesWell, there are a couple ways to improve the situation. First, consider chatting with friends on a third party service, such as discord or Skype. That way, no friendly banter between friends will ever register on the instant feedback system. Second, find new friends that won't report you and get your account banned.
(I'm also ignoring the obvious answer; that you weren't joking with friends and actually were a toxic twit to randoms in your game. You aren't the first person to claim this defense)
TheLastShadow451 votesReports don't always lead to punishment.
it was all for fun
The system doesn't know that. So to avoid this use something like Discord, Skype, Curse or TeamSpeak if you play with friends to avoid chat bans from Riot.
Sarutobi1 votesTo be clear like people have said the system doesn't know when it's a joke or not, and even then it takes more than just one report to get punished. Unless you were really toxic. But even then how do you know she was the only one to report you?

Jo0o1 votesReal friends don't mess around with their friend's property like that lightly. There's a lot wrong with this situation, with Riot's response to it being the least problematic.
GodKing Thumper1 votesBy Riots own words, we own absolutely nothing on the accounts that we use. Not even the accounts themselves.
But I agree, friends don't do that to eachother.

Well sure, I was using "property" loosely.

RooftopsKhalifa1 votesFor the lovely kind sir to say the punishment is due to multiple chat restrictions, there were 3 games that they reported me in. Back, to back, to back. So yes it was an accumilated act of malice, however, they were still people i know in real life and people who thought it was funny to report me. Mainly they are salty because I hit platinum this season while they are all still in silver. Riot is fantastic. Thank you for taking the actual time to understand the situation and not just ban me through a computerized system. Maximum sarcasm intended. Also, to the gentleman who recommended the laxatives, something very similar will be coming soon to ruin their lives for a bit as they have ruined mine. League is life, you ban my life for 14 days, im going to wreck your soul just the same. Thanks for all the comments guys.

I mean... how was Riot supposed to know that they were joke reports? Are they supposed to investigate possible motive? Did you have your friends contact Riot and attempt to retract their reports?
