Here's the deal : you can be a really nice player , be honorable , almost never flame your teammates etc; doesn't matter. Just say 1 racial slur (be it n* word , f*g or anything else , and game will automatically ban you for 14 days (first one) and perma (second one) after being reported. No jokes.

How do i know that ? Well I experienced that myself ! Now , i understand that banning people who have tendencies to be inflammatory is good and all , but firstly , i would say that i am not such a player . We all have those games when we are stressed by factors outside the game (real life) and if you get into an argument , it can get really heated.

Here's the chatlog : " Game 1 Rukutazumemo: are you seriously tryharding in this mode ? Rukutazumemo: by the way , look at all the cc they have Rukutazumemo: no wonder im higher than you Rukutazumemo: why the hard Rukutazumemo: its fucking ascension Rukutazumemo: leave that for ranked Rukutazumemo: you do Rukutazumemo: why play the game if you dislike losing Rukutazumemo: then stop hating yourself Rukutazumemo: thanks Rukutazumemo: >2k17 Rukutazumemo: %%% Rukutazumemo: yes Rukutazumemo: why would a %%%%%% have problem with the k Rukutazumemo: you are criticising a joke by its age but you are using a k that is outdated Rukutazumemo: why :( Rukutazumemo: right in the feels urgot :( Rukutazumemo: why so harsh urgot :( Rukutazumemo: :D Rukutazumemo: :DDD Rukutazumemo: ppl tryharding in ascension Rukutazumemo: lmfao Rukutazumemo: kys" It's hard to read without any context , but it does not matter now . I've had a bad game , said the n* word (not directly to anyone) and got permabanned for "inflammatory behavior" that goes on for 1 game . Yep , 1 game . You won't see any inflammatory behavior in my other , previous games , you won't see me writing stuff like "bg , report x for y , noob , retard " etc . Just this one mistake , and that's all it took for my account to get banned .

I would not argue if i considered myself a person with inflammatory behavior . I would like to issue an apology to anyone who i have offended and IF a support member reads this , i would like them to personally view my other full-game chat logs and conclude if i am a person that should be permabanned . Thanks for reading .

TL;DR version : said the n* and f*g word , got permabanned after 1 game even though i am not a player that flames.

The "kill yourself" is also not helping.

But yes. This behavior is considered entirely unacceptable, and absolutely zero tolerance. It is a 14-day ban at minimum on the first offense, and a permanent ban thereafter.

Riot understands that players get heated -- the system is slightly lenient as a result. But there's a difference between getting a bit heated and resorting to hate speech. I might say "well fuck you!" in a fit of anger, but lashing out with derogatory language is a bit different.

I'm very confident, from my conversations with support members, that they take hate speech and encouragements to self-harm VERY seriously. If you did NOT receive a 14-day ban on the account previously it might be worth sending a ticket to Player Support as often this behavior only receives a 14-day ban. If you did already receive a 14-day ban, however, I'm 100% certain that you are, sadly, out of luck.

You didn't mention the fact that you said kys though. That's pretty bad too.

Well, and you were a bit of an ass too.

Seems warranted.

The rules are right there, you chose to disregard them.

I just don't get why being stressed and getting an argument leads to throwing around "the n word" lol... like you say "we all have those moments" or whatever, but I'm sitting here like no... no we don't. I've never had a moment where I was so stressed I just had to call someone a n**r. Lmao. And I don't even care when people are racist, it's whatever, racism is kind of natural, but I don't say it because i have no reason to. Why the n word? Is that your go to insult? How old are you? Is it normal in your generation? Is it a hip hop thing? Do you say it like a tough guy, or like a basement dweller who only says it online to be edgy and sound like you "just dgaf"? Maybe it's just my personal bias because I missed the "n*a" with an A generation (yeah I'm kinda old :/) but I can understand saying "f6g0t" since we used that like it just meant "dumb" basically growing up. But I still sure as hell wouldn't say it in Rito PC land.

I have no idea where the italics came from.

Problem is the n- word generally is always being told to a person, not just as-is. Same thing with f-g. You don't see someone saying "Cho builds like a n-", or "Ashe has some f-g ult stun".

Gay is another thing because it can be used against someone, and against a situation, since it's an adjective AND a pejorative, but used more (as far as I've personally experienced) to describe things. Like "Omg, that damage is so f---ing gay". This is why people don't get reported out of just saying gay, but instead in what context they use it.

The point being is, it's very very hard to not curse or something, but there's times and places for everything, if you want to tell your friends those words, go for it, they might be accepting of it and in fact play around with it, but many others don't. Keep that in mind.

Rukutazumemo: %%% Rukutazumemo: kys"

That pretty much justifies it to me.

It's hard to read without any context

Not relevant, you said it, you earned the ban. No one forced you to write that, no one can make you respond in an inflammatory or pejorative fashion, only you can do that and you did.

and got permabanned for "inflammatory behavior" that goes on for 1 game . Yep , 1 game .

I would bet a steak dinner that you have been toxic in other games on your account---maybe not to the degree of this one, but I'd wager that this is not the very first time you have ever popped off. In all the time I've been on the Boards/forums I've never seen a case where someone just decided one day to be toxic for ONE game and get banned. You would be the very first case if that happened and I'm guessing that you're not the exception to the rule.
