Friend got banned and it may have been my fault

We were in a game as a 4 man and the enemy team went for a dive bot and my friend dodge some things and then got accused of being a scripter. Then throughout the night every time he dodged or ran into a skillshot we would say in allchat "nice scripts" or "he turned off his scripts so you could hit that." Today he tried to log on and his account had been suspended for using 3rd party programs. It's really shitty actually that just because the enemy team is losing they have to make up the excuse of someone cheating just because someone is better than them. We were just joking around and then it actually happened and I dont know what to do other than have him submit a ticket and post here.

Just to clear this up real quick:

You were both banned for using the exact same scripting application.
MKLoL hasn't been thing for nearly a year, and no support agent ever referenced it.
We don't derive cheating suspensions from game chats, that is seriously ridiculous.
The enemy team probably accused you of scripting because you were scripting.

While it's admittedly kinda adorable that you both ended up in the same banwave, I couldn't even begin to guess at what you hoped to accomplish with this thread. I'd strongly suggest a different video game if you need cheats to play this one.

Godspeed.

They can't ban for scripting based purely on things said in chat. That's fucked up. I can say whatever i want in chat (well.. as long as it's not toxic). "I'm trolling", "I'm scripting", "I'm boosted" ...It doesn't mean I'm actually doing any of those things. And if I do say that ever, it's because I'm mocking someone who accused me of doing that.

Your friend should definitely submit a Support Ticket if he doesn't understand what his ban was for.

Wuks. Would there be a chance that I got falsely banned because we were in a group and they mass reported all of us? I already sent a ticket but I don't have any 3rd party programs except for overwolf and plays.tv.

Is Pichu still banned?

So my theory is that one day he got on his friends computer to play the game (Assuming they live in the same area). Even if he didn't use the scripts himself, the system detected his account now being associated with the files of a modified client. Resulting in getting hit with the ban wave.

Otherwise, yeah... secure your account and check the list of okay'd program that a red has actually made.

scripts are usually fairly obvious

like sweeping a bush to make sure there is no ward in it and then they manage to land skill shots on you again and again and again no matter where in the bush you are even when you use a dash ability right b4 their ability is off CD (i fought an ez that never missed a Q or R (for that death by recall ult even if the person delayed recalling after dropping vision and being 100% sure there was no vision because of control wards in bush) regardless of vision and never got hit by a skill shot

usually its obvious, especially when they are vs skill shot or stealth champions if they manage to dodge a ziggs, thresh and cho using their skill shots at the same time in different sports but all right on someone its a bit fishy

You do realize I don't know this guy irl. He is a someone who I've been playing with on discord for a week. I got unbanned because my personal computer has nothing on it that would cause a ban to be issued. And I only play on my personal conputer. I pretty much take it everywhere so that's another thing.
