"We understand that you want to get word out about this player and their in-game behaviors but this is not the correct avenue to get attention on them. Please continue to use our in-game reporting system to put these players through our behavioral systems."

The player in question that I was talking about is myself, and it's not about behavior at all, its about how it's definitely possible to go 21/19 if the game circumstances require you to trade 1 for 1.

Can you please read the post before deleting?

Edit: no, I did not single out a single player by name, except for myself. Am I not allowed to talk about myself anymore?

lol. same thing happened to me once when i send a ticket to riot support. i asked if i can get banned when i duoq with a player that is scripting (i was kinda new to the game and first didnt know that this player was scripting) and riot answers me "thanks we will investigate this player and take actions against him" and i was like wtf the only name i said was my own do they really think i just reported myself?

Imagine the mods as your grandmother who doesn't play league or even know what a video game is. Now you understand who you are dealing with.

Did you name ANY other player in your post?

Nope, I posted a match history of my own game and pretty much said said yes it's possible to go 21/19 sometimes

I did not call out any other player by name at all.

Then yeah sounds like someone reported it for mentioning another players name and didn't notice you were talking about yourself. -_-

Your match history link showed the names of all the players in the match. Your post didn't state you were talking about about only yourself, in fact you only posted the links and nothing else. This was then removed for Naming & Shaming since all players' names were shown.

Yeah, but I didn't name any 1 of the 10 people specifically, as a matter of fact, I didn't name anyone at all. Are we not allowed to post links to our match history anymore then? Because all of the links to match history have other players summoner names on them, so by your definition, the League of Legends match history site is naming and shaming people just by having their names on the list?

This is what you said, "We understand that you want to get word out about this player and their in-game behaviors"

So, who is "this player" that I'm trying to get word out about? If you can't pinpoint the name of the player I'm trying to get word out about, then I'm not really naming and shaming them am I, since I did not name them by name.

And what "in-game behaviors", I mentioned nothing about behaviors.

"Naming and shaming" who was I shaming?

Yes, the match history had all 10 players names on it, but I did not shame any of them or say/imply that they did anything wrong. Saying someone's name isn't shaming them. Posting a match history with their name in it isn't shaming them. Saying they did something wrong and that they sucked or whatever is shaming them, and I did not do that.

Because, in your definition, if simply naming someone (without intent or purpose to shame, and without saying they did anything wrong) is equal to shaming them, then every LoL esports viewer who says "Faker" is shaming Faker.

Once again, the post you had removed only had the match links with all players' names in it. The discussion in the thread you made that post in was about negative behaviors of other players at the time you made that post. In that context, there was no way to know if you were talking about yourself or the others in that match since you gave no context at all in the post. As such, your post was removed and in that context would be removed again in the future.

If you want to post your match link and discuss your own behavior, go right ahead. You didn't do that though. If you want to prevent future removals for Naming & Shaming, screenshot your match history and black out the other players' names. Plenty of people do that on these Boards and those posts stay up.

If you would like to discuss this matter further, feel free to submit a ticket to Player Support.

The conversation was actually not about player behavior. I actually quoted the quote I was responding to in my post:

"how do even go 20/19/2" So I showed 2 matches where I, myself, had a similar score to 20/19/2.

In my opinion, ambiguity is not naming and shaming, but it wasn't even ambiguous. I specifically quoted what I was talking about.

if that's how you feel, then you are admitting that I did not name anyone specifically since you are unable to point out who I was trying to shame, so, the effect is that nobody is shamed, and that any instance of shame would simply be speculation on the parts of others, which isn't my problem. Having 10 players names on there as a match history is not pinpointing specific player(s) for shame.

Mind you go report and or remove those recent threads with links/pictures of people's names on it please? Thank you.

I've seen countless posts with match histories of people's name on it and I am sure they don't get deleted. Well some of them that is.

I am afraid to pull up the examples in fear of "naming and shaming" and get this post removed also.

Best of luck though buddy.

It's all about the context, like what it may suggest even if that isn't your intention.

My post was removed once and temporary ban was issued when I mentioned my resolve to start my career as an educator. Nothing wrong with that until I hinted my intention to apply to all-girl highschool with inappropriate reasons...

XinZhao2WinNhaoMar 7, 20161 votes

"what it may suggest" I quoted "how can you go 21/19" and posted 2 games where I went 24/18 and 21/15.

What else would it suggest besides that it's possible to get those scores.

It's basically like posting a graduation picture, or a prom picture with no caption or nothing naming anyone else, just the picture, and someone saying "You're shaming me because I look fat in the picture" even though you never named him or her and are just posting a happy graduation picture.
