Does riot hand out bans randomly?

So I wanted to adress a lot of the posts where people ask why they were banned or chat restricted. I am confident that in most cases these bans are not deserved. I have seen people banned for saying " please report so and so for trolling" meanwhile I have never gotten a ban or chat restriction but I am super toxic if I am in a game with a troll. I will curse at them, yell , rage ask to report them and so on but I don't get a ban but these other people do? It's makes no sense to me and I am starting to believe that riot hands out bans randomly

Their punishments are not random.

Those punished for mild toxicity has a lonnnnnngggg history of consistent mild toxicity behavior.

Calling for reports will get you banned.

You've either been lucky or aren't being as toxic as you claim

Get in a game with me and try that behavior and you'll at least get a chat restrict not long after. Unlike the other players you're matched who apparently don't report you, I WILL.

Yes they have a button specifically designed to ban 10 random players and they just mash the button whenever they feel like it

Punishments aren't handed out randomly, but they are handed out to those who consistently behave poorly without a significant enough improvement or effort to reform. This is why in some permaban cases the chat logs may show tame/mild toxicity but the offender got a permaban because they still chose to behave poorly despite already receiving at least 3 prior punishments beforehand.

Well in some games I'm flaming worse than most things I've seen in the chat logs posted here on boards too, some ~~retards~~ people just manage to piss me off over my limit to stay calm in this game. Still the worst I ever got was a 10 game chat restrict.

It's because the important thing is how you are in most games. It doesn't matter if you lose it sometimes and go all out on some people, as long as you're not racist, type "kys" or anything like that. What matters is that you are not being toxic in all of your games, and affect literally every game with a toxic attitude.

The bans/chat restricts are not handed out randomly, but to people who are like that in every game than just losing it for 1 or 2 games.
