Banned for 3rd Party software when I've never used it before?!?!?

CheesyTimes·1/12/2016, 11:09:45 PM·21 votes·9,658 views

It said that I have been banned for the use for a 3rd party software. I have never in all my time playing League of legends use a 3rd party software for any sort of reason on any of my accounts. I am very angry and displeased that I have been banned for such a thing. I was playing on my account today (2016,01,11) at my college and about 8 hours later when I get home from school I have my account banned. This makes no sense what so ever and I would like to have my account back please. I have been playing League of Legends since Season 3 and have bought tons of RP. I have done nothing wrong. I have never used any sort of 3rd party software to gain any advantage on players or in general. I do not understand why I have been banned?? This is honestly unbelievable. I have been playing League of Legends for 3 years and never got banned. I have been toxic in the past and I got my rightful chat bans for it and served my time for what I did. But this, this is ridiculous. I have never used anything to cheat or give an unfair advantage to any players. I have worked very hard to achieve the rank that I have and spent countless amount of money and time into this account and I would appreciate if I would be able to get it back. As I have done nothing wrong.

Heya CheesyTimes,

As some other players have correctly identified, you were having your account boosted during the detection period (mid-October, specifically). Your booster utilized a scripting application, and while it might not feel like you were directly responsible, all 28 games spent cheating left significant impact on the integrity of your account and to the competitive experience of other players.

Even during stretches of intense sharing, an account is ultimately responsible for the actions taken on it, and with that in mind, I'd encourage you to review our security guidelines, here.

So many people have gotten banned for this in the past week.. Did Riot mess up because I can't believe so many people got banned for scripts when they all say they didnt

Another one of these threads?

I seriously can't believe the amount of people who have no idea how anti cheats work. If you were banned for cheating it's because you cheated. Peroid.

I hope they are closer to get my account back because of this ridicules claim on me.

So the only thing that I can assume is that their system detected something going on with your account in the month of October. In particular, if you look at your Thresh games, you have a very distinct build (Face of the Mountain) and key arrangement (flash on "D") before that time. During October you go to building Talisman of Ascension and flash on F - there are a string of games where you have success during that time, making it seem as though someone were playing the game on your account.

That being said, I screw around with keys and playstyles for the heck of it all the time and I'm not accusing you of anything. I just noticed that that string of games in October stands out and could be why they flagged you.

Hahahahahahahaha.

It's incredible how much of a dipshit people can be to cheat on the game and then lie with a straight face about how they are innocent.

So People are getting banned for boosting?

Same thing has happened to me on the exact day. Sending emails to the support team does nothing. I'm so angry as I've spent hundreds of pounds too.
