Got banned permanently

Cynthoz·Mar 23, 2018·3 votes·528 views

Honestly, I feel like I know why I was banned; I was getting pretty mad at my teams in ranked play because most of them weren't playing very well, and we'd end up losing. But the thing is I never got any warnings before hand. Isn't that how it's supposed to work? Like I haven't played the game in a very long time and now I get on to come back and I suddenly see I've been perma banned. Like I could make another account. Just the mere fact that I wasted so much time and money on it is what bothers me mostly.

A long time away does not reset your accounts standing. Any punishments you got before your long break would be treated as if they had just happened when determining your punishment now.

I don't understand- Basically my whole question is how come I got immediately perma banned and didn't get some kind of "Toxicity warning" before being bashed in the head with the ban hammer.

Did you have any punishments before? Even before your long break?

none that I can recall really? For all I know maybe I did and just didn't notice it.

I would ask support when you got your warnings

As Sp33d Zero said, I'd give Riot Support a holler and see if they can clarify. It's possible that your chat was just that bad that it merited a ban without prior warning, or maybe you got warnings before your break which you've forgotten.

If no reason was given (no chat logs, no mentioning of use of third-party tools/account sharing, etc etc), you may have been given a "Shield ban" (Temporary security lock on your account until you contact Riot Support and sort it out), or a Chargeback ban (if anything purchased is charged back, Riot locks the account until the money owed to them is paid back)
