PSA: The definition of "PERMANENT" didn't change recently. You can stop asking.

No, Riot will not give you your accounts back. No one cares if they got banned a year ago, or 4 years ago. Permanent means Permanent.

There really is no such thing as permanent when for-profit-companies are involved. If the owners/stockholders see a chance to make significant income they will change this shit overnight. I mean they have already folded once then they decided to no longer permaban players from competitive tournaments. It was a good PR stunt and attracted a lot viewers to tune in and see "what will happen next" when perma banned players are allowed back into tournaments. It also gave riot a "poster boy" for trying to sell their player behavior system as a success.

tldr: They saw a chance for good publicity and a chance to make money so they changed their policies accordingly......aka... so much for that "permanent suspension from competitive play"

I was hit with a permaban and had my account restored after the case was overturned. And yes, it said "You have been permanently suspended". No, it was not a "bluff". I was hit with a zero-to-permaban punishment and Riot later decided that whoever pulled the trigger on that was blatantly wrong.

If one believes that the case has been truly mis-handled or otherwise incorrectly punished, it is not unreasonable to make one's case through the support ticket system. I do agree that it is nonsense to argue the case on the boards..... though it may be confusing to new players given that this is the "Player behavior & moderation" board .
