Can someone at riot permenently ban me from chat behavior?

rapñvern··2 votes·1,744 views

I would really appreciate it if they would because I have a very bad attitude in league and I have spent more money then I would like to say I do, but I just got off of a 14 day suspension and I was wondering if someone could just perma ban my chat because I would get too tempted and just talk smack. thank you.

Wouldn't stop the problem mate. I'm willing to bet this critical/short temper/ 24/7 annoyed attitude bothers you irl too. Do some introspection and try to figure out why you react the way you to certain situations. If you have the means, use a counselor.

You can shut off all chat, but team chat will never turn off. Though you can mute.

Yea but that wouldn't fix the problem at the center of all this, which is you. No one is forcing you to say whatever you do in game. You're making those choices on your own, understand that choices have consequences or else Riot will check you for you.

um didnt he say he knows this and isn't it in everyones best interest if the toxic player cant be toxic anymore

It's a band-aid. One that will not help whatsoever. If OP cannot chat, he will manifest his toxicity in other ways like afk, gameplay troll, inting, etc. If he doesn't attempt to fix his toxicity at the core, chat ban means nothing.

To have a toxic player cannot be toxic anymore is by perma banned, not perma mute.

someone who is toxic in chat does not affect their game play just makes it so he doesn't get anymore bans, flaming and trolling are very different especially when most people flame trolls they won't become one themselves, it will help him out

Someone who is toxic in chat would be busy typing instead of playing the game. It would caused his other 4 teammates to be distracted with reading his flaming chat. It also may cause his other teammate(s) to cease playing as well to type back. It completely affected game play.

The root cause of the problem is OP not able to control his toxicity. How would take away his ability to chat help any? If he cannot chat, he will troll instead.

Sounds like his way of controlling it, no? Just asking for a perma mute on himself. By your logic earlier a "band-aid" is just permabanning him, as he will just make an alt. Perma muting him is the same thing in that case if the only "toxic" thing is his typing behavior.

Your logic is, let him get permaed so he makes an alt, his logic is, remove my ability to be mean, problem solved.

you answered your own question

If he cannot chat, he will troll instead.

again i dont see how the two relate, they have nothing to with one another if one is inherently toxic it does not make him a troll, it makes him toxic.

Sorry but no. Even if you were permamuted there's no guarantee you won't just switch to other forms of griefing your team, which many people did when Riot tried that before the IFS was introduced. From Riot Tantram:

It really breaks down into two categories.

1.) Helping players reform 2.) Shielding others from the behavior, at a cost.

We used to issue chat restrictions that essentially scaled indefinitely.

We were able to determine that after a certain point the penalty no longer helped with reform. The 10-game and 25-game counts for chat restrictions are based on data that they were both light enough, and felt strict enough to encourage people to understand their behavior is unacceptable in game and change it.

We also saw that the players in this 'large restriction' category defaulted to gameplay altering means of harassing their team. It caused an increase in feeding and trolling.

The sample size of this population and time frame is huge. Essentially the time spanning from the introduction of chat restrictions to the introduction of IFS.

So my question for you is, would you rather have more feeders and less negative chat?

It's pretty clear: if someone isn't gonna behave properly despite being given multiple chances to do so then why shouldn't they be removed from the game?

If you know you have an attitude problem then it's on you to try to fix it yourself rather than rely on others to fix it for you.

some people unbind the enter key or just automatically mute everyone in game. riot doesn't do it themselves because they believe people should be able to control themselves

fun fact

some players asked riot to delete their account: months later they cried about rushed decision.

tl;dr: change yourself, not other's to change you.-

It doesn't help some of those flamers I believe. Even if they mute everyone else, they can still themselves talk on chat and get punished for that. They do not have the self discipline to refrain from flaming/ping spamming or being negative in chat from 'faulty plays' or 'bad decisions' they perceive. Some of them don't have the self discipline to not to use the chat negatively, even if their team is doing fine - for example; they flame/troll the enemy team in those occasions. Self mute option of some kind would help those people, at least until they turn to other forms of negativity (read: trolling of some non-verbal kind).

To all that are saying I should just adjust my attitude I am just saying I am a toxic player for sure, I wont deny. I could think that I am not going to be toxic but it might just come out at some point. And I really wouldn't like to see my time go to waste. thank you for your time

Hey man, best of luck. Some potential advice to help. Honestly removing your enter key (or unbinding it if thats an option) may help in the short term but you will find ways around that. The best thing you can do is break it like you break any other habit. ANd that is one game at a time in small doses. Make it a point every time you start playing to only play 1 game and to make damn sure you dont say anything toxic. Make your chat as small as possible to avoid as much temptation as you can.

And work your way up from there. Even if you have to stick to nexus blitz or aram to practice. I 100% believe your capable of reforming and instilling in yourself the discipline needed to avoid a permanent ban. But the onus is on you to find out (and quickly) the best way for you to do that. I may be some time away from league or just less games.

I personally quit getting upset about what other players did when I started rewatching my games and picking apart my mistakes to focus only on making my own play better.

Best of luck man.
