Banned for Scripting
Hi,
I've had my account since early 2010 and haven't played regularly on it in probably 6+ years. If you look at my match history it's most likely 99% ARAM + Bot games + the special gametype that rotated weekly. I did play 2 ranked games during my last play session a little over 2 months ago and I played mediocre on EZ as far as I can see.
I just patched the game after 2+ months of not opening the client and found that my account has been banned for 3rd party/scripting. I've never known of any bots, hacks, or scripts to help in ARAMs, but I'd imagine it's some false positive. I have never shared my account info, why would I I'm a low skill player with no ranked experience in 7+ years, and I don't believe my account was accessed by someone who maliciously gained my password based on my match history. I rarely talk in chat and have not been toxic or said anything that would violate any kind of TOU in 7+ years.
I've spent quite a bit of money on skins, champions, and other items back when runes were still a thing and Annie was my main (I had purchased almost every Annie skin available back then). This is more of a sentimental value case, I don't play that often anymore but LoL was a huge part of fun in my life in 2010-13, and I'd prefer not to lose that.
I've created a ticket with Riot Support and am now waiting but I'm posting to find out how common this is?
I've seen a few other forum posts about this and looking at the OPs recent match history it looks like the players were generally unbanned.
Thanks
