Riot has banned my account forever. Accusing me of using exploits and cheats, providing zero proof.

Riot. What the fuck are you doing.

As the title says. I have been taking a break from the game because other games are taking most of my time. I checked my email randomly and saw that I received punishment and was suspended until 2203....which is basically forever. Riot's excuse is that I had used "exploits" to "cheat" and yet I fail to see how that's possible if I haven't been playing. I only got on a couple of times to play arurf with a friend. I'll include a link to the screenshots of my conversation with a Riot support person. Lots of salt included, for good reason. Hopefully I blacked out all the important bits. Can anyone explain what the fuck I'm supposed to do about this? They are taking my account away forever due to either thinking I used cheats (without actually explaining anything or providing any proof) or because I was hacked and someone cheated on my account. I refuse to start a new account because the grind to 30, and then the grind to even unlock a couple of champions with even beginner runes is not worth it.

well the account and all the content belongs to riot... they just allow you to use it... therefore legally they dont have to provide any proof. and can seize your account at any time as they see fit

On an unrelated note;

Do people not know about the rectangle tool? Each time I see one of these pics, it's been "censored" by scribbling all over it with the pen or paintbrush tool.

-First of all, was your account recently made within this year or has it been around for a few years? -Second of all did you have a really weak password? Because plenty of hackers will run B.S. brute force programs to yoink passwords and in a game like say Guild wars 2, will just turn your account into a 'farm bot' after stripping of it of all tradable goods and money. League of Legends could at least be used the same to make 'dummy accounts' out of 'real accounts' to make it easier todo things like test scripts and hacks in 'actual games' till they got it to the point that it is extremely undetectable and then may pull off b.s. like selling accounts with the scripts and hacks packaged in it for a tidy profit.

All i can really suggest is to properly protest and bring proof that you were not the one in control of the account at the time and hopefully with enough pressure they will take the time to restore access.

But if your just some hacker or exploiter runner and been lying this whole time then i would say to you: "Eat Hecarim's smelly turds and fall in a ditch and get devoured by Rek'sai for thinking you could whine your way into getting your account after doing hacks/exploits."

Im always suprised when i see streamers using third-party skins and software to play league and they are not getting their accounts suspended (even tho they are strreaming the evidence), meanwhile little league players are getting banned left and right without evidence xD

Sounds like your account got compromised, and was being used as a bot account while you weren't playing. You can't blame Riot for banning the account if it was caught using 3rd party programs. Whether it was you, or someone who got your account info is irrelevant.

You can try to take this up with support, but it's very unlikely you'll have the ban reversed. I don't think I've ever heard of a case where Riot reversed a perma-ban.
