What does the "4 v 1 ?" part of your title mean? Are you saying that you got punished because of a premade reporting you or something?

'Cause, that's not how the system works. Four reports weigh exactly the same as one report - more specifically, the IFS only cares if the amount of reports filed against you is greater than zero. If there is even just one report, it doesn't matter how many other reports follow in that one match, you will be reviewed.

That said, if you want us to try and see where - if anywhere - you may have fallen below the line of expected behavior, you'll have to post your chat logs. We can't really appeal or reverse the punishment for you, but we can at least point out where we believe the system might have flagged you, and, in the case of a false-positive, direct you to where you can appeal the punishment.

But, that last part is a big "if".

If you didn't say anything that you'd consider unsportsmanlike, you should definitely show your logs, as it may be an error -- or you may be missing something that triggers the system.

It's also worth noting that Riot doesn't tell you every time a player is punished. It's entirely possible that your report DID trigger a punishment on someone and you simply weren't informed.

Yeah, not that you need to really appeal to the boards, but it is very unlikely that anyone is going to take your word on it when you say, "I didn't say one thing that was abusive".

I'm constantly amazed with the amount of people who post their chat logs claiming that there is nothing wrong with them and they are dripping with toxicity.

Those are the people who really do deserve perma-bans because they simply are not going to reform.

It isn't jist a matter of saying "abusive" things. Constant arguing/bickering counts against you too.
