Banned for 3rd party program

Best Yasuo main··1 votes·737 views

So my main right now was banned for using 3rd party stuff. I think it was not a fair ban because I havn't used any third party program other than the elophant client to check out my skins but I mean most peopl use that for skins as well so I dont think this should be bannable if riot them self wont make something for us to keep track of our skins

Anything third party is "use-it-at-your-own-risk"

Not really. There is a whole post about what is allowed and what isn't. It's not all "use-at-your-own-risk"

That's an arbiter, not a riot employee, and he was posting old comments from riot employees. The latest change in 3rd party policy happened in October 13th. And its going to be another one soon too.

I have to put it in bold tho arbiters are regular users with no real power nor connection to Riot, just with boards moderators

I find that a little confusing, given that I speak with members of Player Support on pretty much a daily basis.

Really? "Most people use the elophant client"? I've never even heard of it. Where are you getting your data that "most people" use it?

I use elophant client and have never been banned so you obviously used something else, or have had someone on the account that used something else.

But if riot wont make something for us to check our skins they should not ban us for checking our skins on another website

Elophant doesn't cross the line, which is that it cannot affect either client from the moment you click PLAY to the end game screen. There are some custom skin mods that Riot doesn't pursue, but you should know that many contain lines of code that would permit a zoom hack which Riot can detect and will very much ban for. It's best to avoid that sort of mod altogether.

It's hard to agree or disagree, as we have no information of the name of the account banned, any possible reasons, or really anything. Can't even look at its OP.GG for odd winrates or triggers.
