This happened to my friend and I not that long ago as well! We entered support tickets and now we wait. We made backup accounts to play while we wait, cuz we want to practice and get better, but my new account just got banned for same thing? I'm not gonna make a ticket, I'm just gonna wait for this one to go through and maybe add a note to it, but I'm confused xD cuz i was just doing the tutorial when I got banned. I don't get what's going on. I hope this gets resolved soon x-x Edit: My new account isn't banned. But that doesn't change the fact that my main account is.
Did you create this account, or did you buy it, or did someone give it to you?
Reason I ask is that on the day that account seems to be created which was on 11/9/2018 you apparently played 17 games. That does seem a little suspicious to me. Its not impossible that you did play those games, but on no other day on your match history do you even come close to this many games played.
If this is a shared account and was given to you, please note that account buying and or sharing is against the rules as well and can lead to an immediate 2 week suspension or permaban.
But as to your question the best way to contest this would be with a support ticket as no one on the boards have access to the information needed to help you.
Same thing happened to me today. Logged in and said i was perma banned for botting. And i have never botted and have had the account since lvl 1. Im just filling out a support ticket and seeing what happens
Well then it's s common thing , hope they realize that this is a mistake
Support ticket.
Same issue, I've submitted a ticket, pretty annoyed about it all as I don't think it could be anymore blatant that I don't, nor have I ever botted. Hoping that they get round to re-instating my account quickly.
This happend to me as well, i got an email two days ago and i havent played for two days RL tragedy happend and today i looked at my email and saw the messege so im now looking to see whats happeing and i see its not just me i sent them a ticket i hope they can help this is so odd im still new learning the game but i been playing for hours none-stop past few weeks im wating on their replay now.
Me too. Just wondering how long for Riot to respond to ticket?
I was thinking about making backup account.... but since I have no idea what caused the ban in the first place (no buy selling accounts/3rd party apps/etc) I don't want to waste the time. I'm concerned ... like did I get hacked or something, you know?
Same thing. I submitted a ticket. My user name says it all as of right now.
Same thing happened to me 2 days ago. I have screenshots of me playing the game since "day 1" since I recently got back into playing league in December. I'm still waiting for a response. There's been way too many incidents.
