Really Riot?

First off, I am going to start on a positive note and say I really love the new changes you've all made to the game especially the champ select. It's in a way removed so many arguments over who's playing what lane. This being said, my issue stands as this. I just received a permaban on my account which in all honestly I can say I did on a few points act in an aggressive manner towards summoners over the last 3 years playing this game. I play 5-10 games every day, i get reported maybe once or twice a week. Your system put in place for disciplining gamers is to discourage any type of negativity. Understandable, yet if lets say a duo or trio of people are playing ranked together and are basically being toxic towards everybody acting in a very immature way towards yourself and others, and you make any statement in your defense your literally now falling under "aggressive/toxic behavior" so basically you can't speak to these people without putting yourself at risk of being disciplined.. How does this even promote a positive environment? I mean unless you basically just mute everybody then you can't get away from being reported weekly when you play as many games as I do. So your system basically demotes communicating with teammates. I'm not going to even argue with why I received my permaban, but you shouldn't be banning someone who reacts to a group of players that are acting toxic, verbally harassing others, and demanding you play exactly how they say. I could personally see a lawsuit coming out of this, if someone can claim self defense in court over physical abuse because they reacted, then this is self defense on the terms of that they are still abusing someone. Possibly even throw in freedom of speach, there is a filter for the younger crowds. Honestly if anything, stop banning people for what they say and let people use the mute button, or ban the instigators, not the players who react to them. There are so many legal arguments to how your going about punishing people unjustly and taking away a product that they pay for.

There are no "legal arguments". Its free to play game, and in contract u agreed to, all virtual goods you purchased are property of Riot. U basically dont buy skins, you unlock use of them while your account is active. Dont try to bring any legal stuff, as everything involving League is Riots property and they can do anything they want. Noone is customer here, everyone is privileged to play free.

There is no excuse for toxicity, the existence of the mute button does NOT warrant free flaming. You have no grounds for lawsuit, and there are no legal arguments whatsoever, if you have read the terms and conditions that would be quite clear. LoL is a FREE game, and Riot has the right to end your account if you break the terms and conditions, and the amount you have paid means absolutely nothing if that is your excuse for toxicity.

Yall are funny since not a single one of you actually are a lawyer or made a single case against what I actually said. "Nobody cares what some toxic no good cheat thinks." Can't really cheat on this game, so plz troll else where else by the terms lol has set you should be disciplined? haha. Now for Tobirama who isn't from NA so probably doesn't know our laws, no game company can do w/e they want and get away with it. Its not about the legal aspect for skins and such though, its the aspect that league is disciplining people in an unjust unfair manner, taking away any type of self defense when people are verbally abusing each other, and stating its ok to verbally abuse 1-2 people if your party is larger and gets less reports. Hence half the cases I have, 1-2 people abuse the hell out of someone, the duo report the 1, the 1 reports the duo. Now 1 person has multiple reports against him and all he did was react to a verbally abusive duo and he gets a harsher punishment if not being the only person punished. BTW Riot, I looked at the chat you banned me for, half of it isn't even abuse towards anybody at all. Please, please, I repeat please tell me how saying "fml, I really wanted that kill so i could buy devourer right now" is abusive after I died under a turret? lol, half of the community should be getting chat banned since that is such a common term. Talk about stupid, I mean the only argument here is saying fml is abusive towards someone when I was literally justifying an overaggressive play that I made, and we actually laughed about it in game. That is 1 example of about 10 that you quoted for me receiving a permaban. 46 lines of chat you sent me, 11 of them are offensive at best, and all 11 of them are directed at the duo and out of that 6 of those were in 1 heated argument after they decided to farm while their lane killed me and stole dragon, then took 2 turrets.
