Spending money on the game doesn't give you the right to ruin other peoples experiences is the game, no matter the amount spent. Not sure why you're being toxic in a game in the first place. Win or lose, it's a game; the outcome of said game isn't going to change your life. No reason to be mean to other players.

Also, Riot isn't obligated to give you a refund.

I thought this post was about that time Phreak and Tantram cornered me after work and mugged me. They told me if I called the cops they'd send Tyler on me.

4.3 Do I “own” the Virtual Items I unlock? (No. What you “unlock” is not the virtual item itself, but rather, a qualified right to access it in the Game.)


You have no ownership or other property interest in any of the Virtual Items you unlock, regardless of whether you acquired access to those Virtual Items using Riot Points, Influence Points or Hextech Crafting. Virtual Items have no monetary value. You can’t redeem them for cash. You can’t obtain any refunds for purchasing Riot Points or Virtual Items, except as expressly permitted by us.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE SUPPLY OF RIOT POINTS AND THE PERFORMANCE OF SERVICES BEGINS IMMEDIATELY AFTER YOU COMPLETE YOUR PURCHASE, AND ONCE ACCESS TO THE RIOT POINTS HAS BEEN ENABLED ON YOUR ACCOUNT, THE CONTRACT HAS BEEN FULLY PERFORMED BY US. YOU THEREFORE EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE, CONSENT AND AGREE THAT YOU LOSE YOUR RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL WITH RESPECT TO OUR SERVICE OF PROVIDING YOU RIOT POINTS ONCE YOU COMPLETE THE PURCHASE.

You can find our current content refund policy online.

We have the right to delete, alter, move, remove, or transfer any and all Game Content—including Virtual Items—in whole or in part, at any time and for any reason or no reason, with or without notice to you, and with no liability of any kind to you. We don’t provide or guarantee, and expressly disclaim, any value, cash or otherwise, attributed to any data residing on servers we operate or control, including any Game Content attributed to your account. The sale or transfer of your right to access certain Virtual Items, Influence Points, Riot Points or Hextech Items may only be conducted via services approved of or provided by us, if any.


4.4. Once again: I don’t own these Virtual Items? (“No!” shouted all the lawyers.)

NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY HEREIN, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU SHALL HAVE NO OWNERSHIP OR OTHER PROPERTY INTEREST IN YOUR ACCOUNT, AND THAT ALL RIGHTS IN AND TO YOUR ACCOUNT ARE AND SHALL FOREVER BE OWNED BY AND INURE TO THE BENEFIT OF RIOT GAMES. YOU FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO CLAIM, RIGHT, TITLE, OWNERSHIP, OR OTHER PROPRIETARY INTEREST IN THE GAME CONTENT THAT YOU UNLOCK OR ACCUMULATE, REGARDLESS OF ANY CONSIDERATION OFFERED OR PAID IN EXCHANGE FOR RIOT POINTS OR VIRTUAL ITEMS. FURTHERMORE, RIOT GAMES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE IN ANY MANNER FOR THE DESTRUCTION, DELETION, MODIFICATION, IMPAIRMENT, HACKING, OR ANY OTHER DAMAGE OR LOSS OF ANY KIND CAUSED TO THE GAME CONTENT, VIRTUAL ITEMS OR RIOT POINTS, INCLUDING THE DELETION OF GAME CONTENT, VIRTUAL ITEMS OR RIOT POINTS UPON THE TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION OF YOUR ACCOUNT.

tl:dr

riot cannot steal something that legally belong to them.

it's like if you bought a year pass to a amusement park and then get kicked out for harassing the other guests, they don't need to refund anything because the pass got no monetary value outside the park.

the same situration is with riot, you don't have ownership over any of the content you unlock, nor does they have any monetary value outside of the game, therefor can't you demand a refund because items is literally is worth nothing, without riots servers and software.

To play League we all needed to agree to the Terms of Service which state that we can't be toxic in order to keep the account.

It's actually pretty rare to be toxic enough for a perma bro. Most people don't get punished past the first chat restriction^^"

"be told that they are idiots or that they shouldnt be playing lol." I have a feelign the perma ban is someone somewhere telling you something No seriously they don't want you here, they didnt force you to spend a dime

Who is the idiot? the person who has a lower skill level in LOL, or the person who drops $400 and then proceeds to act in a manner to have his account banned after multiple warnings?

Or, don't be toxic and keep your account. It's a pretty simple concept. Don't say stupid, inflammatory things to other people and you won't get punished. Problems would be solved everywhere if people did this more often.

There's this thing you agreed to these terms before you even downloaded the game. Basically, when you agreed to these terms you said, "Yes I agree I won't be toxic. Yes, I understand if I am toxic I will lose my account and I am not eligible for refunds. I agree with all your terms. Downloading the game now."

  • Account Termmination 2.2. What happens if my account is terminated? (No LoL for you.) If your account is terminated, you’ll no longer have access to it, including any of the associated data or content (e.g., champions, skins, Riot Points, etc.). You’ll not be entitled to any refunds and we’ll have no liability to you. We also reserve the right to terminate any other accounts you may have created, as well as your access to any other Riot Services (also without any refunds or liability to you).

maybe you should not get stressed out over a video game and start acting like a uncivilized immature child throwing a verbally abusive temper tantrum deserve it back with attitude .

People like you don't deserve to be here you only have yourself to blame not RIOT, not other player and not the game itself for losing your investment.

Or instead you can give them tips to improve and really what makes you think that you have the right to tell people what they can and cant play? Seriously you sound very self entitled. I don't care if you spent 2,000 dollars don't act like a jerk and there shouldn't be a problem. Personally I don't think you deserved a perma ban for this level of toxic behavior but I do think that there should have been some sort of punishment.

When you agree to the TOS or TOA(w/e people call it), you state you realize the content you purchase in game isn't yours and your account isn't yours. The content you willingly spend money on is "rented" to you so long as you abide by the rules. You also agree to the fact that RIOT can at anytime ban your account with or without reason as they see fit. So, tough shit, buddy. Maybe be don't be a toxic d-bag the next time you make an account/ if you make a new account.

Also spending money and acting like a jerk gives you the right not to be banned? You must be joking. Gotta love toxic players like you. Always crying over spilled milk when you yourself caused it in the 1st place.
