Seeking RIOTER's opinions on whether this discussion is fair or not..

The1stWizard·Oct 23, 2017·1 votes·561 views

I encountered a player in a game with a friend who reported me for flaming.. which whatever..I said one bad word to her. give the chat restriction. But what i don't understand is how she can threaten to write an email to a riot friend of hers to try to get my account banned. She even threatened me in game... saying she was going to write an email to get me banned. Check that chat logs of my most recent report.

So after I report her and she reports me, I get chat restriction but then it gets better! She messages my friend telling him that she can email her friend to disregard the penalty.. What the heck? I have the screen shots and summoner name to prove the conversation tru, but I wanted to hear from a riot employee if this is fair for her or her riot friend to do.. Its already hard enough to give beneficial advice without getting reported for flame... sooooo tell me what is there to do about this situation.? I feel like this riot friend of hers can apparently be manipulated.

Thoughts?

OP. Calm down, she didn't do anything to get you punished aside from maybe reporting you is the most likely scenario, you admitted already you did say something untoward didn't you? The IFS is automated and will react quite quickly.

Most likely this random person is messing with you, they don't control anything.

Try a bit less sexist cliches here...

Besides that, you've done all you can. You reported the person after the game. It might be frustrating, but given time, if the habits continue, there's a fair chance they will be punished as well.

It goes without saying, but take everything said online with a grain of salt with hard evidence to back it up.

No, that isn't "allowed." You might want to correct that misconception of yours. Sexism isn't ok from either sex. Prejudice and bigotry at any level isn't all right whether it's a group you're represented by or not.

As for the evidence, by all means, share. But what i'm interested in is the actual chat ban screen cap, as well as the one for it showing an official Riot message of it being revoked. (Since that's what you appear to have said in one of your previous posts.)

Actually I think she said that this other girl said that she can have her Rioter friend revoke it, but it hasn't actually happened or the OP skipped that part, because I haven't seen OP mention it.

Here:

so my chat restriction was revoked.. does that make her "just messing with me"?

Either she worded it poorly, or she's claiming it was revoked.

Could be.

Fuck, I didn't see that message until just now because she's only using the reply function properly half the time, it's aggravating.

Is this better? I am not used to using forums.. apologies for aggravating you with my forum ignorance I guess.

I think she's yanking your chain I've never heard of Riot friends overriding the punishment system just because their friend said so. Pretty sure that would be conflict of interest and not acceptable.

The1stWizardOct 23, 20171 votes

I agree with you there but i got chat restricted and after my friend was messaging her advocated for her to not punish me she messaged him back clear as day saying she can have it removed and that she has done it before. In game she was totally rude and flaming me the ENTIRE GAME. she received no penalties.

and just cuz youve never heard of it happening doesnt mean that it doesnt happen

unless she's a rioter she can't do anything even then she couldnt do anything because shes not on the behavior team even if she was why would she tell you

I wouldn't read to much into it. Everyone can say "my dad works at rito games and can perma-ban you".

The1stWizardOct 23, 20171 votes

Not a bro. thanks. but I don't think thats the case. and i repeat, this person wasnt messaging me... she was messaging the person who invited me. Why do i get a chat restriction for asking her to type less and play more when she died while typing... and she gets nothing? its bullshit. so my chat restriction was revoked.. does that make her "just messing with me"?

Honestly not a bait thread. I guess I just don't understand the league justice system. I think its right that a bad word automatically flags me for chat restriction, when i said hardly anything all game, but the person who flamed and complained for the entirety of the match leaves unscathed. After she THREATENED to get my account banned.

I suppose it was poorly worded. "Suppose it gets revoked" would have been a more appropriate preface.

I simply want to know if these threats of getting my account banned and the messages about asking a riot friend to revoke is grounds for any type of consequence.. Talking in league is a crime.. If one bad word (with the option of language filter) automatically flags me, its a bit bogus.

Did you receive logs that showed what exactly had you get chat banned? Thank you for rephrasing that one line. It clears up what you were trying to communicate.

Talking in of itself is not a crime. It's how you're talking that can be held punishable. The way the current system works is the automated system scans for keywords and phrases from at least one report. There are occasions when an actual person will go over the information. Only the last specific match where the report induces the punishment will give out the notification that the person has been punished. I know that can be frustrating, but if you try your best to be honest in your reports, more people are being affected than you think.

She is lying to you, if he/she actually had friends at riot games she would have heard that you should report with the automated system. She is simply lying and hopes to get some shit out of your ban.
