So, I got suspended... (Can it be reduced?)

Hey, I play under the username Dreddhell. I'm starting this discussion because I got suspended recently for some.. mild toxicity, although it was all just a joke; I mean none of my insults sound remotely serious. So I just wanted to know if it was possible for my suspension time to be reduced? Thanks a bunch, love the game.

Yo! I don't think Riot will do that but best of luck to ya!

I just want to give you a fair warning. If you got a 14 day suspension then you are on your final warning. So your next punishment for being toxic, regardless of how minor, will get you a permanent ban. You basically shouldn't say anything negative at all in chat. I don't want you to lose your account.

First, exceedingly unlikely.

Second, the automated systems have a hard time telling the difference between jokes and actual toxicity, so don't take the chance posting questionable stuff.

And, just throwing this out there, apparently someone was offended enough by your comments to report you, so maybe they weren't quite as funny as you thought they were.

Finally, as JPGuy said, you're on your last strike for now, the next step is banned, do not pass Go, do not collect $200, etc. It will take a few months of stellar behaviour (while actually playing the game) for you to get dropped a punishment tier.
