Chat restricted, but my log seems mild?

Phraust··1 votes·2,577 views

This is the only log it is showing me, not sure how to see if there is more.

Basically our adc died, then said "this sucks im outta here" and left before anybody could say a word. So anything about the Jhin was after he had left. After a bit our top laner was calling us trolls, feeders, flaming us, and even did this in the game before this one apparently. So my chat here is pretty much only responding to him and the enemy team telling us to open lane.

Compared to some of the ridiculous things I see people say on stream or in my games, i'd love to know why they don't get restricted but I did. I'm going to assume it's because I had asked the jhin to be reported (found out apparently that is reportable). Or maybe I may come off as passive aggressive here? Idk but I don't think this is toxic compared to people who should be getting punished.

"Hey Phraust,

Okay, so I don't have the best news here. Hopefully I'll be able help clear up any confusion as to why you were escalated to this point. I completely get how tilting other players can be when they're verbally harassing you throughout the whole game, so I'll go ahead and look into any players from that game and action accordingly as we definitely don't want them to ruin other players' games as well. However, you are ultimately in control of your own actions and not that of others. Oftentimes, engaging with negativity only contributes to it and that's something we don't want to condone either.

So looking through the logs, it looks like the biggest issue is the arguing, but I also see you blame others. Here are some examples:

[5:29] Phraust (Zyra): yeah [5:34] Phraust (Zyra): cho banned my champ [5:36] Phraust (Zyra): twice in a row [5:42] Phraust (Zyra): when i had him highlighted [5:50] Phraust (Zyra): sooo i didnt know who else to play [6:05] Phraust (Zyra): autofilled [6:08] Phraust (Zyra): and no [6:18] Phraust (Zyra): i asked [6:20] Phraust (Zyra): u said no [7:06] Phraust (Zyra): im jk i know how to play zyra [7:17] Phraust (Zyra): jhin just was getting poked over and over and wouldnt cs

[13:38] Phraust (Zyra): you should look on the front page of league reddit [14:07] Phraust (Zyra): "too many people are confused at what the word INT means" [14:19] Phraust (Zyra): a top thread xD [14:32] Phraust (Zyra): i mean [14:40] Phraust (Zyra): u died 14 times last game as twitch [14:43] Phraust (Zyra): sooo [14:46] Phraust (Zyra): pretty troll [15:13] Phraust (Zyra): i also had a 1v2 lane cuz of an afk.. [15:14] Phraust (Zyra): soooo [16:24] Phraust (Zyra): i had to 1v2 [16:26] Phraust (Zyra): .. [16:33] Phraust (Zyra): thats not inting [16:37] Phraust (Zyra): i dont think u know what it means

[17:20] Phraust (Zyra): we're all "trash" cuz he got autofilled [17:36] Phraust (Zyra): he tells me im just a feeder in a 1v2 lane [18:26] Phraust (Zyra): inting [18:34] Phraust (Zyra): but [18:39] Phraust (Zyra): we're the ones "inting" [20:22] Phraust (Zyra): please we are wasting time

Again, not the best news here, but hopefully I was able to share how and why you were escalated to this point. I believe in you to avoid further penalties going forward. If you have any other questions or if anything else was confusing about the penalty, feel free to hit me back so that I can fill in any gaps!

So basically I'm being told that my attitude was negative, and that blaming jhin for me being 1v2 and saying somebody banned my champion is toxic. On top of being demoted and not throwing a fit in the post lobby chat. After looking at this board and seeing what other people have done, this is RIDICULOUS. It's a multiplayer game where we can't talk unless it's something super positive or about the game in a non negative way. I'm already done with my chat restricted games so that's no big deal.. the big deal is I need to get my honor back now for something this minor which is a pain.

my suggestion is to find a different game. cause league likes to dish out punishments for unjust reasons like this. Like there was nothing toxic about your chat. its like me i get a 2 week for 1 game saying i was inting cause we had an after i was 0/7 lol. see the "toxic" people or at least most of them are agitated people that are provoked by a community that riot wants in place to increase revenue. that want people to be banned. increases profit when u finally reach your perma. you gotta re-buy everything. they know most people will. they accept the toxic community that they pretend to deny. even reading some of the rioters posts you will start to notice how toxic rioters are. eventually you will accept getting punished for lackluster reasons or you will move on. this game is great and all but the developers and the community ruin it.

that may be mild, but still pretty negative overall i guess you had several chatlogs similar to this? maybe they cumulate and when they reach a certain point you got a punishment?

either way, i suggest you stop arguing in chat completely and limit yourself to report afterwards

Then why have chatting an option

Chatting is fine.

The problem here (and I should clarify, by the way, that I think this was probably just over the edge of what the system looks for -- I personally probably wouldn't have reported for this game, but I can see a few things the system wouldn't like) is that you spend a lot of the game complaining about your teammates and their actions rather than just playing the game, or chatting positively/productively (or even neutrally). There's no reason to talk about how someone banned your champion, AFK'd, etc, more than once (if that), and no reason to get into debates over who is feeding/inting and who isn't. They just make the game environment worse.

It's also worth remembering that you did get the most mild punishment available -- chat restrictions are the slap on the wrist that a change in behavior would be a good idea, and you can get them for logs that aren't full of rampant toxicity.

Slap on the wrist even though you strip us from honor 4 and make us take ages to be able to get honor 2 back? Doesn't feel like a slap on a wrist at all. The guy had an AFK in his botlane and he gets chat restricted for this? If anything I would say I deserve the chat restrict more than this guy like wow.. He even was demoted after his botlaner was afk. What did you honestly want him to do? What's the point of a chat system if you can't talk about anything besides being 'positive' when the majority of the game's community sucks???

I got a 7day ban in decemeber, and now I am Honor 1 checkpoint 1. It has been a long ass time and I get plenty of honors as well as honoring my teammates. I have actually reformed and am not toxic at all, but it would be nice to play clash (if that ever works lol)

Avasía2 votes

Might as well just not use the chat system cause it's just going to get you banned is what I'm starting to figure out after being on the forums for so long. I got a chat ban for saying stfu and please ff cause my entire team was inting. Pretty great.

This is one of the main reasons why I'm trying to dump this garbage game. I mean he just called out his toxicity without even flipping the handle. What, are we supposed to practice Wuju style while we're chatting?

While I haven't looked at your logs, the system punishes people based on consistency x severity.

Meaning you can get punished for a game or two of hate speech or you can also get punished for 1000 games of mild toxicity.

The reform card only shows you 1-5 recent games as examples of unacceptable behavior. It doesn't show you the whole toxicity picture.

honestly i think they cranked up sensitivity and now any group of passive aggressive game ruiners can witchhunt after they set up your lane into failure and get you a chat restriction. but that's just my opinion
