An Honest Apology

EmDash·1/17/2016, 12:28:24 AM·11 votes·2,895 views

I have spent the last few days researching the EULA, and Summoner's Code, along with Tribunal Operation Procedures and the Tribunal forums.

I have concluded that I deserve this ban.

I sincerely apologize for my behavior and didn't realize how deeply intricate "toxicity" can be. I am sorry my behavior was out of line. I am sorry that my behavior could have hurt the community of this game. I honestly don't mind being banned right now because I do feel like I deserve it and will not ask to have my ban lifted because I have no excuses for myself.

I have been reported continuously for harassment and language and thought nothing of it, I believed it wasn't that big of a deal but I realize that it's a big deal to others who have to watch the way they act for the sake of the community.

I hope others will read this and learn that your anger, and your frustrations will be warranted at times, however, using that in a negative way to put your teammates down, or insult your enemies, is not how you should act. It may make you feel better for a moment, but in the long run you negatively influence others who will go on to play more games and that's not fair to them, no matter what they did. If they're doing something that bothers you and you think they're breaking the code, just report them. Retaliation is not an option.

To summarize, I am extremely sorry for my behavior. When I'm finally no longer banned from my 14 day, I will make a promise to myself to never do anything that could be considered against the rules in any way, not just because one more punishment will get me a permanent ban, but because I truly believe I've been in the wrong and now know what to do so I can be a productive member of the community.

Thank you for helping me reform.

Great to know! Not alot of people have the guts to realize and admit this. If you need help reforming, or help keeping your temper in check, feel free to add me after your suspension ends and if I have time we could play a few and I could help a little =]

I think the bans are stupid, they automatically ban/report you which only caters to this new generation of politically correct whores, that care nothing more than making sure crybabies don't get offended.
