So I got reported for "offensive language" even though I know I didn't say anything bad. I think its because I just destroyed them. I ganked them and got a double kill off them right after they killed my teammates and said "rekt" which is the only thing I can think of. I know I never said you guys suck etc. then one keep complaining kat is a no skill champ.

Could be considered spam based on how many times you were using it during game.

Not sure, but "gg ez" is reportable due to being unsportsmanlike so "rekt" might fall in that category as well.

I honestly want a response from rito on this lol. I say rekt all the time and haven't got any punishments, so I would assume it's not punishable, unless you're harassing someone with it.

It's just simply trash talking lol. Only thin skinned people get upset at it lol.

I get reported every once in a while. not for anything to serious

If this is true and I have no reason to believe it isn't anything else but you commenting on a board about such matters, again I say unless you get a bunch of these reports in a short amount of times, No Worries.

I have to admit the one and only time years ago I got a warning for 'offensive language' that I knew was meant for the other person who actually did Not only use curse words ( that is fine by me) but used them in such a way that was directed at others, then myself yet I got the warning it bothered me ! So I do understand your concern.

Just be a bit mindful of other things you may or may not be doing that could get you multiple report pop-ups.

The real point is : Your question... and you presented yourself so well but as you continue to post OP is seems some flaws start to show. Not major ones as so far as you talk about but I wonder if what is getting you the reports is your attitude and this includes your statement here on this thread...

its usually I call my teammates assholes when they don'tsurrender when we are getting destroyed. but since they introduced the perm banned I calmed myself down.

From a personal standpoint, I Never Ever call my teammates assholes or for that matter the other side ! I am happy to hear you have calmed downed but as you felt the need to post this it seems that you may not yet understand how or why you are getting reported and that is ashamed because unless your bs-ing everyone i think you may just be a decent person who doesn't understand the rules, thus why I commented.

one more strike and I get the 14 day ban which is why I am worried.

and when we are getting fucking destroyed in kills. 15-50, I am extremely pissed 2 people are not surrendering. I'm wasting my time dicking around in a no win situation.

I never say people suck unless you have a allstar like this

And this is why you are getting reported..it is an attitude thing. So you lose, everyone loses ! So what can you do, help when and where you can and don't cast blame in others direction, even if it is their fault. If you feel they are screwing up on purpose report and move on if it bugs you to no end then summit a ticket, but for you own state of mind and the fun of others don't blame them !

Understand that now, you have shown by your own words that your original statement was Not completely true. Just stop being "like" a jerk player and start being a team player and you won't have to worry about a punishment. It's really that simple !!

If you have only gotten 'reported' and you Know you have done nothing wrong there is nothing to worry about. Could have been someone salty or you may have done something that offended someone, thus reported for any category that seem to apply.

If this is the only report you have gotten in awhile and have not been in the punishment system no worries ;)

Thing here is you can get reported for anything..I believe the question should be more like..

"If Riot sends me a warning for saying what I assume is only my use of "Rekt" once then what am I doing wrong to get the reports ?"

Brings me to a question, does Riot alert a player on the 1st report they receive ? Legit question ;)
