How does the punishment system work?

I am just curious on how the player punishment system determines if a player is worthy of either a chat restriction or a ban. I do understand it is based off of behavior like feeding and in chat toxicity but I will admit that I have found myself to occasionally flame. Now I have had teammates that rage more than I do on a usual basis but I am human and I make the mistake to occasionally pick fights in chat when I should just stay calm and my overall question would be why have I not been punished?

        I am not saying I want to be far from it and I generally consider myself a player that attempts to avoid flaming others and look to praise them as much as possible but I know I have to of been reported for toxic behavior in recent years and never once has the bot even warned me, is it based off of reports to honors comparisons? Does the fact that I honor a lot of players add to build up that I am not generally a shitty person? I am just curious for more info on how the system tracks a person and if you can actively see how close you are to being considered for chat restriction or bans. 


          Also would like to note that back when I was a much more arrogant an moronic youth I would flame a lot and actually got temp banned twice for toxicity back in like season 3 and have never had that happen since(I have tried to avoid typing in chat other than gj and gg), so I would like to think that I am proof that players can change their attitudes if they try.

In regards to how punishment is given, think of it like a health bar (or tension meter) in music games. When you hit the note at an off beat, your tension meter increases. When you completely miss a note, the meter increases by alot. When you hit the note at good timings, it reduces the meter.

Riot's behavior system works the same way, as in we all have a toxicity meter attached to our accounts. When players are mildly toxic, it goes up a tad. When people use hate speech, it pretty much fills up the meter.

Hi! Here's an explaination: VERBAL ABUSE/HATE SPEECH/NEGATIVE ATTITUDE Keeping it short, the punishment system is a bot, that checks the chat logs of reported people. If they find something bad, (example "kys") they bring out the punishment. If it's light words, you get a chat restriction for 10 games. Another violation with light words is 25 games. But, another one is a 14 day suspension. Note that you can get a 14 day suspension if you use strong words (like the previously mentioned word to tell people to kill themselves) And the next one is the ultimate punishment - A permanent ban. If you get it, there is no turning back. The only way to play again is to create a new account. USAGE OF 3RD PARTY SOFTWARE Pretty simple, if they League of Legends finds suspicious applications, they hand out a permanent ban. You can't even log in at this point, you're just greeted with a message explaining it when you try to log in. And obviously it can't be reverted. Intentional Feeding I'm not sure how it works in this case, so you'll have to ask someone else.

Alright, it's pretty much the system in a nutshell. I really hope I helped you! (P.S: Punishments can be reverted ONLY if they are accidents made by the bot/riot team) Remember, stay on the good side, and do not do any of these things! Have a good day! [slayer-jinx-wink]
