the league of legends ban policy needs to be changed because they really dont give enough bans before the last ban ( permanent ban) the last ban i got was a ( chat ban ) for 10 games and it was like 2 months ago and now i got a permanent ban like this is unfair you should give me a harder ban like a month or 2 months ban before the permanent ban, you cant give me 10 games chat ban which is a silly ban before the permanent , please hear me out and try to do what i said we need a bigger ban before the final ban so people can reform i mean i never ( afk - int - trol ) talking bad in the chat doesnt deserve a permanent ban only ( cheating - going afk for lots of games - int all the time ) deserves a permanent ban the ones who only type in chat bad words deserve a second reform chance and if they dont get reformed you can just ban them again .

If you went from a chat ban to a permanent ban and your log didn't contain any zero-tolerance behavior (hate speech or encouragements to self-harm), you should send a ticket in to Player Support, because that's unusual. Usually the punishments follow the set order shown below:

10-game restriction.
25-game restriction.
14-day ban.
Permanent ban.

Riot have found out that the toxicity severity and rate doesn't change amongst people whom get an extra punishment tier between 14-day ban and permaban.

Meaning that extra punishment tier doesn't do anything in regards to stopping people from being toxic and is just prolonging the inevitable permaban.

I'd argue having a warning before a player gets their first punishment will be more effective at encouraging reform.

If I'm not mistaken, the only thing Riot tested in regards to toxic player reformation was seeing if a player who was permabanned for toxicity on their main account could make it to level 20 without triggering the need for the now defunct Tribunal system. If I'm wrong about this, when did Riot test the added tier of punishment?

Oh I just read things that Tantram wrote.

I wasn't involved in player behavior when they did test it, so I wouldn't know the exact details.

It's also possible they got data from non-riot servers, like the China servers (run by Tencent) or Vietnam (run by Garena) as they have their own behavior systems there.
