Hello, I'm I don't talk. I was permanently banned for being toxic to my teammates, This was about a year+ ago. I think I've reformed and would like a second chance to summoner 4 back on to the rift. I've appealed my banned and have gotten no where (No surprise Riot takes permanent bans incredibly seriously.) So i had an idea, I was ranked plat 4 when i was banned, Which is the top 6% (or so) Of players playing ranked.

My suggestion: I think it would be relatively fair for all parties involved if let's say I were to coach a bronze player out of bronze and into silver, they then could leave a signature on a sheet you guys would provide, and once a certain amount of signatures are achieved, you guys (Riot staff) can confirm I did my part and I could have my account unbanned. Of course this seems like I'm doing this just for me, Being honest I am. But then again this would help a vast majority of banned players that would be up for something like this (Reformed ones of course).

FAQ: I was low ranked when I was banned how would this benefit me? Helping an unranked player/under level 30 with Runes, Masteries and champion pools is just as important as coaching.

What if they get unbanned and banned again? One time deal. A second chance at life if you would. If you were to get banned again this would NOT get your account unbanned again.

(Will add more once questions are asked)

Yours truly, I don't talk

If a murderer was sentenced to a lifetime in jail but began to volunteer and get signatures from his boss, he is still a murderer, and still needs to serve his punishment, whether he has changed or not

i think a better way would be to implement more of a scared straight type program. where reformed permabanned players such as you or reaper review "RIP" would be assigned to players who have made it to the 25 game chat restriction step, and helping them reform and by doing the program successfully. you wouldnt get your account back. but could "earn back" things on your new account such as limited edition/victorious skins which you had previously

Hmm.. while a nice idea (community service), I don't think the boards is the proper venue to propose this.

Maybe ask.fm or Twitter directly to a behavioral team member or ghostcrawler would work.

I suppose it's rather common for people to make somewhat trite replies to this sort of post, saying how banned is banned, and that's all there is to it. And to a certain degree, given the 4-strike system, I suppose that can be "fair." But I think there is something to be said for the concept of reform and rehabilitation. With so much of the player base for league being relatively young (under 30) there is a good deal of personal growth and maturation that happens, in part, due to learning from consequences, such as a ban.

Though your idea does seem to be placing a direct correlation between behavior (yours) and skill (the bronze's), when the two are not necessarily related. It's perfectly possible to play league with good behavior, but bad skill, and still be in accordance with the Code of Conduct. I think you might run into some hesitation about whether previously banned players would end up teaching the bronze players new bad behaviors along with new skills. Also, how would you determine whether a previously banned player was reformed?

Or you could donate money to your charity and rito will forgive you.
