Chat restriction system promotes abusive behavior

FoxyTofu··3 votes·471 views

2 games ago i was playing anivia mid and was dominating a veigar. He was talking all kinds of crap about how terrible i am and then i got camped. I tried to tell my jungler that i was having a problem staying in lane but he just refused which ticked me off. So i looked to bot lane and ganked them multiple times. Once i helped them i got raged at hard by legitimately everyone int he game besides the person i was in skype with. Every single time any of the enemy players got a kill or took an objective or did legit anything then they would brag and spew bullshit constantly in all chat. The fact that i am to be chat banned for telling them to shut up and stop harrasing me and my team is pure and utter insanity. Where is the balance in a system that punishes one for sticking up for themselves. Its like riot games is a principal and you keep going to them for help becuase your getting bullied but all they do is tell you to avoid them. But when it gets to the point where you cant take the abuse anymore you fight back and instead of the bully getting busted you do instead becuase the bully has more friends. So thank you league of legends your the real hero, you pick on those that are sick of getting fucked with and that finally push back. Way to really solve the abuse.

Moderators delete posts that are breaking rules. Voicing discontent with a punishment is not against the rules itself; it's usually posting on the wrong board that gets it removed. Universal Rules and individual board guidelines are on the left.

You aren't really "defending yourself", you're just retaliating. When they are giving you shit they are in the wrong, but when you do it back you're typically just making it worse. Do not participate in toxic arguments, just mute and report them and keep playing the game to the best of your ability. "Defending" implies you're mitigating or stopping something, not adding to it; muting and reporting stops the immediate chat issue and helps prevent them doing it in the future.

See the problem with the system is that even if you say nothing back if enough people report you, you can still be chat restricted.

And you are, you don't have a blue or red name so I'm assuming you aren't a moderator or dev

I did used to be an Arbiter (blue name) but those are player volunteers experienced in PB matters, not mods or Rioters. I'm still a volunteer within the program, just not an official representative. If you would like me to grab one of them I can.

If you believe you had a post removed for something other than breaking the Universal Rules or the individual board's guidelines, you may submit a ticket and Player Support (who are not the moderators) will look into it.

Have you ever had a post removed that did not break these rules?
