Petition 14 Day Ban - 1st Offense - Only 1 Game Listed under "Games"

Listille·9/1/2017, 1:43:42 AM·2 votes·935 views

This is my first offense. I have had a clean account (1 chat restriction which I have learned from) up until this one game where I was fed up.

During the banning phase, ADC is hovering on Blitz Ban. ADC asks me which support I am going to play. I answer soraka. He proceeds to switch to soraka and bans her. "Sorry, Im high" Obviously I get mad at this point but this has happened before. This is when the team tells me to calm down because he is high. This left me furious to which point I hoped they would dodge when I said I am done and will feed. They laughed and told me to calm down and get high.

So I was forced to get hit with the leave banner, be forced like a whipped dog to play something else, or be true to my word. So I fed one game. Only game I have EVER feed in as well. I have played this game for over 4 years without any issue. My wife and I have supported via skins and promotions with true enjoyment.

I find a straight ban without a warning to be very odd. Especially since I have been counting down the days until the soraka skin finally gets released. So I am asking for my sentence to be reduced or at least an explanation as to why after 1 offense I am getting this punishment while I see people go back to back games without any strike to them.

The penalty for gameplay infractions starts at 14 day ban, because chat restrictions would not impact them at all. Also, gameplay infractions are considered much much worse than any amount of toxicity in chat.

The next penalty for any infraction is now a permanent ban. If you play regularly and are not validly reported, your punishment tier should decay in 3 - 6 months. Please be careful for the next bit. Right after a 14 day ban, the IFS decides to punish more frequently for less of an offense.

Shows you what "Zero Tolerance" means, I guess.

Seriously, stop being that much of a douche over a video game. So what he banned you champion? Play a different one.

I am not asking for a complete removal of the ban as I do feel I deserve a punishment. I am asking for a reduction of the ban. I play this game every day with my wife and its something that is very dear to me. I am mostly begging in the hopes of having a couple days taken off so that I may enjoy the release of the soraka skin. I

These two sentences are in conflict with each other. You cannot have a first offense when you have had a chat restriction prior to this punishment. Your chat restriction is a punishment for at least one prior offense.

This is absolutely awful to encounter. I've seen this happen and it's really annoying. Now unfortunately your reaction was not the best. You threatened them with intentionally feeding. Rather than deescalating the situation, you escalated it.

So I was forced to get hit with the leave banner, be forced like a whipped dog to play something else, or be true to my word. So I fed one game. Only game I have EVER feed in as well.

You intentionally fed. You admit to a pretty bad offense...

As you have already admitted you have at least two offenses on your record but only see it as one offense, I'm going to wait for a Red to actually correct the statements on how many punishments you have gotten (if the reds actually respond to this thread)

EDIT: also, spending money does not justify intentional feeding.

Had somebody do that to me, "I just don't play with Soraka's, sorry." Picked Bard.... sorry dude, picking up chimes, back to lane, drop a shrine, hey look more chimes! Spent almost no time bot lane, won the game anyway.

Be more subtle next time, mate. If you get a 4-man premade trolling you, start making "mistakes". Engage bad fights, miss your skillshots (bonus points if it's an ultimate), try to do flashy combos but "fail" them, overextend often but otherwise play normal - farm and push your lane, participate in fights, etc. If they begin calling you out then start apologizing, say that you are "tilted" and that you'd probably be calmer and play better if you weren't trolled - basically call them out instead. If they continue report them for harassment; you are just having a bad game and they are trash talking you for it. That's a punishable offense.

For the record I don't condone intentionally losing games in any way, shape or form except in one case - being trolled by a 4-man premade. Because in that case there are no innocent players whose game you'd be ruining; they decided to ruin your game as 4, and you are just paying back the favor.

Where is the silver lining you ask? Well I'll tell you. At least now you know what kind of behavior to avoid moving forward.

If my adc banned my intend pick, I get to attempt to bring back Season 3 Fiddlestix support.....

It doesn't mean I will troll the game, but it does mean I get to play my nostalgia support champ
