This is Garbage you have now deleted two of my threads for no reason at all it seems to me that the reason is due to my pointing out that your reporting system is garbage because other wise there is nothing wrong with what i said in ether post if you don't set up a way to report then oh wait you might have thought that the name i posted was offensive so did i that is why i posted it i believe these are the rules Don’t be a jerk

We’re aiming for the most sportsmanlike gaming community in the world, in-game and out. Just because you’re anonymous doesn’t give you a license to be an asshat. Posts that walk over the line will be deleted. Repeat offenders may be permanently removed from the Boards.

Moderators will take action against the following:

Players posting content that would seen as extremely offensive to others Players attacking individuals or groups in a way that violates accepted social norms Players making baseless complaints or contesting private matters that isn't relevant to an active discussion No Mature Content

This one is important for everyone to read carefully. We know that this community tends to be more mature, but there are kids here, too. All of us want this to be a reasonably safe environment for children, and at the same time, we won’t tolerate childish behavior.

With that in mind, many players vary in age, and there are some things that children and young adults shouldn’t see. We don’t want to see any nudity, or real life gore. Violations of this rule will be dealt with swiftly, and seriously. You could lose your in-game account if you mess up here.

Moderators will look for and consider the following as violations of this rule:

Pornographic materials of any kind Imagery that show real life depictions of gore, death, horrifically violent acts, etc Content (art, videos, etc) that shows genitalia, sexually explicit acts, or depictions of such All that being said, even content you merely see as risqué can fall under these rules, and will be dealt with accordingly. So use good judgment, and stay classy.

No Spamming

There are many ways to define spam, so to make it clear what we define as spam, we've spent some time breaking down the various types of spam that we look for:

Emoji / icon spam - We're fine with and allow casual use of emoji's and icons. This doesn't give you the license to use these excessively. Use good judgment. If your content is annoying or an eyesore due to the sheer amount of emoji / icon use, then we're probably going to delete it.

Overabundance of or nonsensical use of text - Large amounts of text copy pasta'd from the interwebs will probably be deleted. Yes, this includes posting entire chapters from Moby Dick. We also keep our eyes peeled for posts with nonsensical text that isn't relevant to the conversation. We apologize in advance to any Arabian princes negatively impacted by this.

Posting the same content multiple times in the same board - If you want to post your discussion in multiple places that's fine, assuming that it's relevant in every board. That said, if we find someone posting the same content multiple times in the same board, or cross posting content in boards that aren't relevant, we will likely treat it as spam and delete.

Adhere to Board Guidelines

We want each community to have its own unique culture, which makes it important for you to post content in the correct place. Each board has detailed Guidelines that should make clear what’s acceptable, and what’s not.

Moderators of each sub-community will evaluate your post against the Universal Rules and the customized Guidelines set for the official boards. Content that isn't appropriate for the board will be removed.

Account, Product, & Service Promotion

If you’re trying to promote or sell a product or service, there are other websites for that. If you’re trying to sell a game account or service that violates our TOS, please don’t; however, if you absolutely have to try it here, expect that you’ll be losing access to the boards and possibly your game account. TL;DR: posts attempting to sell anything will be removed. Serious offenders will feel the wrath of the banhammer.

Moderators will be looking for the following:

Advertising for product sales of any kind Advertising for services offered by individuals or companies Coupons or discount information that doesn’t contribute anything to the conversation Reporting Other Players

Please don't report a potentially misbehaving player in these boards. If you see or hear about another person breaking the rules, send us a ticket directly so we can investigate and take action if necessary. We know that players report publicly with the best intentions, but it often leads to a witchhunt, rarely resulting in a positive discussion. We’ll be taking action against players who have violated rules, so please report these players correctly.

Moderators will be looking for the following:

Posts that accuse others of being toxic players in-game Posts accusing others of malicious activity Posts that accuse others of cheating or using illegal services Posts accusing others of trolling in the boards (there’s a report button for that) Hacks & illegal downloads

Do not share links or information related to obtaining illegal software. To us, this includes cheats or exploits that create an unfair advantage in-game. We’ll be removing all links and posts that give such information. Repeat offenders will lose access to the boards, and in some cases, a lot more.

Moderators will be looking for the following things:

Posts with links to download software that give an unfair advantage in-game Posts that link to pirated movies, music, software, etc. Illegal Activity

Criminal masterminds, or aspiring criminal masterminds: please don’t talk about your activities or plans in these boards. Posts about illegal activity will be escalated to law enforcement.

Threats

Making threats on the internet is just bad form. We don’t tolerate it, and neither should you. Threats of any kind will be handled differently depending on severity, but all posts of this kind will be removed. Extreme instances will be escalated to the proper authorities. Be cool, dudes.

Phishing & Scamming

Trying to get a leg up on others through scamming, or forcing an account breach is a serious no-no. This is theft. It’s stealing from your fellow players. It’s pretty shitty. We have a whole team at Riot Games dedicated to battling this crap and they take it seriously.

Moderators will be looking for the following things:

Posts about services claiming to be an RP generator Links to cleverly disguised phishing sites Posts designed to bait someone into a trap

The notification you received should have explained briefly what rule you were breaking, and if it was just on the wrong board there would be a suggestion for one more appropriate.
