tricked into getting banned

I have just been perma banned because I was tricked in to typing "%%% %%%"!!!!! In champ select the support player on my team threatened to troll if we dint type that message in chat. then he backed up is statement by picking sion support with stormraiders witch is normal what full ad sions go. then in the begging of the game he dost walk to his lane. that was the final straw so I finally typed the message without realizing what it meant. then the sion went back to playing normally after all of our teammates said it. we ended up winning the game with the help of sion and I thought that was the end of it no other banable words were said by me. then in the end game chat they told all of us that the sion and the trynd jg were duoed and that we were going to be banned and put a link in the chat do their discord. I entered their discord and they counted down till the time that I got banned. they then posted 3 msges in the chat for the 3 of us that got banned in that game. they then went on to tell me that they were actual a third party paid by riot to clean up the community and that we were numbers 169-171 that they have gotten banned. they also told me that they are paid 30$ a ban to do this. I don't think they're bad people and I'm not mad at them. one of them even helped me find the appeal system and file for an appeal. I just don't know what to do from hear and thought he community should know.

on further notice I have been unbanned via a ticket and riot has disputed all of my claims that they were a third party company hired by riot.

They are probably fake agents.

Riot would never tell their community to do stuff like that.

It's true though. I had a similar experience. There I was, sitting in my room, ready to play a nice friendly game of League, when suddenly, a shadow appeared behind me out of my closet. Before I could react it threw me aside, sitting in my chair and typing away while laughing deviously, calling my team mates garbage and using racial slurs. By the time I had recovered and looked, the shadow had clicked my champ to run down mid, and turned, revealing itself to be non other than Tyler1! The scoundrel then unplugged my mouse so I couldn't stop myself from running down mid. I was scared, doomed! Until Phreak-Man and his sidekick, Sanjuro-Boy came to my rescue, stopping Tyler with their Pun Ray and ToxicDiscordBoomerang. But it was too late, as I was reported and banned. So unfair.

If the story is to be believed, they coerced him into it, and this wouldn't be the first case of this happening.

What the heck kind of situation is this? Riot is this true? I want answers as well. Please upvote this. A lot of gullible people like myself would probably fall for something like this.

Hey !! I just want to let you know that you aren't alone in your issue and can be unbanned.

Check this thread out and make sure you send a ticket to http://support.riotgames.com and have them review your ban, if it wasn't unbanned already.

I believe this case needs deep quick review, Tantram would be able to verify this story in a heartbeat. When he sees this he will clear up the confusion.

I hope you and all the people you have talked into doing these things get punished. This is not the way to seek change, it is radical and unnecessary.

You should have let them feed and then just reported. Mention in the comment what they tried to make you say.

If they worked for Riot, they wouldn't be allowed to tell anyone to use hate speech, much less threaten to int if they didn't. Otherwise, it would look bad on Riot if they allowed their workers to get people punished even if they didn't deserve it.

Undercover cops don't hold a gun to an innocent persons back and make them shoot someone with another all to make the innocent person guilty. Riot doesn't force innocent people to use hate speech.

You really should've reported them if you didn't.

picking sion support with stormraiders witch is normal what full ad sions go

I just saw that video by imaqtpie. Also, why would you say it? Just don't, screencap, and report via ticket. Nobody to blame but yourself.
