Wrongfully banned, please help me Riot...

Need help, i recently got banned for 3rd party stuff (hacking etc.) when i never EVER touched anything remotely illegal. Hell, i even buy my movies and music... Now the account gets banned, i immediately go to ''support'', which are completely useless, saying they have proof and that the account will never get unbanned. I have no clue what to do, i rarely play the game unless i'm with friends and they just ban my account when nothing has changed whatsoever. I don't even play ranked anymore. I have not done any mods to my PC, no new applications, virus scan done often. So all they see is a guy that doesn't play ranked, isn't that good at the game, only plays with friends, even my game replays show that i suck!!! But of course, ban me! Keep all the scripters but me? Nah go ahead ban me... I'm so pissed. Can someone help? Even a Rioter could be better than the dumb Support bots. Please, i really want to play with my friends again...

Here, have an upvote.

People lie all the time about this sort of thing, but enough threads like these pop up that I'm still nervous for my own account despite never coming close to cheating at this game. So here's hoping for a manual review for you.

I see so many of these sorts of posts that I'm starting to believe riots banning system might be bugged. Hope they fix it soon.

But remember that even 3rd party custom skins can be seen as ban worthy so it might not be for hacking. Anything that may modify the game even in a way you don't think helps you and is just cosmetic could result in a ban. If it doesn't end up being that keep bugging riot with support tickets. I usually see that for those that get this sort of thing resolved.

Sitting here most the day digging around for other related issues to mine. Found this recent thread among tons of others.

Played some games with my friends on Saturday(5/13), and tried to log on Sunday(5/14) with the client saying I have been Banned.

No e-mail sent to me. The account reflects my correct e-mail. When I opened a ticket, an e-mail was instantly sent to my account, but been sitting on the ticket for a day now with no response. I even took a screen shot of my e-mail showing the Riot e-mails dating all the way back to 2011 when I started the account.

I've been reading these bans are linked to 3rd party software, which I didn't know about nor ever use, or scripts of which I also didn't know you could. My account hasn't been hacked, as no other played matches show up since my last match on Saturday. I played with friends those days, never alone, and they didn't vote against me, and had I been voted against by anybody it would have specified as such, not just declaring me outright banned.

So the Riot banning system, CLEARLY, has issues. Riot can scan my computer up and down 50 times over(even though once would suffice), check all my browsing history, rewatch ALL of my matches, read all posts I've made, and read all chat logs(I don't flame nor am I toxic in any form). If there were any 3rd party programs being used I wouldn't be such a poorly skilled player and there would be real evidence of such.

I'm in the same boat as OP for being banned without a single shred of evidence or information as to why. I can only guess I was banned for this based purely on what I've seen by other posts.

I'm just going to ask this, since you've apparently been "replying but getting nothing" to your tickets; are you letting someone RESPOND to your ticket before you say anything else in it? Because if you keep bumping your ticket up without getting a Riot response, then the ticket goes back to the end of the line and has to go through the whole q again.

Also, what programs do you have on your computer that can be used with League? Or have you messed with anything within the files? Because obviously, if you've been the only one on your account, something had to have been done to trigger a 3rd party ban.
