Friend Banned for Elo Boosting

I believe my friend has been unjustly banned for elo boosting, it really doesn't make any sense and she hasn't gotten a single response back from Riot Support.

Here is her op.gg, as you can see she is Plat 5 OLP and primarily a support main.

When playing ranked she'd choose to grind for a specific time until she got to a certain elo and then she'd take a break, so she'd have a jump from like Gold 5 to Gold 1, and then after a while she'd make the climb to Plat 5. So maybe thats their "reasoning" for banning her? She defenitly didn't boost anyone.

Can Riot at least have the decency to actually RESPOND to her ticket? And not send an automated message?

Tell her to be patient, there are currently a lot of request due to bans. Riot support is pretty much the only thing she can do.

The system triggers suspicious activity. Unless she can prove it good luck.

There was a ban wave so there's a lot of tickets. It usually takes ~2 days for a response, but it'll take longer if she bumps it (bumping sends the ticket back to the end of the queue.)

That's Riot for ya, garbage ass company, lets ban the "toxic" but create emotes... Instead of focusing on banning feeders, and constant trolls, we worry about "boosters" who cares, it's a job. But since Riot isn't getting paid from it, they'll ban anyone at this point. I know a few people who got banned for boosting, who weren't boosting. I got banned for "boosting" on a smurf account.

I love the game, it's not the game, it's the company, I've always said that this game would be 100 times better if a different company would run it.

This is the second time I have seen this today. So, what's good RITO?

That goes for saying maybe that's Riot way of getting rid off smurf accounts faster. Since the games end shorter the good players will weed out the smurf accounts(in other terms the same people). Which this will continue until players learn to stick with one account.

Anyways kids enjoy those bans*[slayer-jinx-wink]*

I am a high elo top/mid/jungle player and a pretty decent youtuber making a video on how my account got banned for being Elo boosted, if anyone wants to share there case with me I can include it in my vod, Riot has been 100% confident that I got boosted to D5, as a high elo player who often duo queues with professional league players I find it hard to believe that there system is perfect and they that look at each individual account, please let me know if you want to be included in my next vod
