I was recently banned for 3rd party malicious software use I have never in the 3 years of playing league of legends used anything close to this (except curse voice when it first came out) in contacting riot games through support I received little to no help and was treated, frankly, disrespectfully all they're telling me is that their system detected I did something, but they wont tell me what or when I refuse to believe that this detection system has a 0% false positive rate. It is also in my mind very possible that either the league client or another unrelated program on my computer glitched out in some way to create this result.

I am willing to give any information required to have the matter settled including giving riot employees access to computer files etc I'm very desperate at this point and this seemed like the only place left to go seeing as you cant contact riot directly outside of a support ticket

I'm hoping that this post will be seen by a riot employee other than the one I dealt with so that this matter can be reconsidered.

The reason why they won't tell you is because what's stopping you, or anyone else from giving this information to the people who make these 3rd party program? They'll obviously withhold that information so those types of people don't make it harder for Riot to work in detecting these programs. We already have to deal with it because it's all done in waves, and we never know how long it will be for another waves of people using these program will detect them. If you truly believe you didn't do anything wrong by all means contact support and give them every information you can.

Yes it would since the people who make these mods could in turn use other programs to help "hide" it's true intention. loads of 3rd party programs use other programs (usually commonly used programs) to hide and trick detection.

All I can say is keep contacting them and if anything ask for a higher up to look into it. If you truly didn't do anything wrong and it's a mistake on their part Riot will fix it. But usually with 3rd party programs they go through loads of work to know if said person is using it!

Very well written for starters. As stated by other comments 3rd party programs like to conceal themselves in common things like curse voice.

Just ask the other person who played on your account. Maybe this dude used some third party tools. (the dude who play with flash on f, and not on d like you)

Bill is-

Oh shit, that's actually real BS.

Sorry that happened to you. Hope a Riot member helps!

A majority of these banned for 3rd party programs are actually bans for account sharing (for whatever reason I don't know why they don't put that in a separate category).
