So what happens if someone is blatantly "toxic" to get an account that isn't theirs banned?

Like I was in a match where my team had 2 people claiming to be boosters trying to get accounts banned cause they weren't paid or something. Obviously they were trolling and throwing racist and hate speech around like no tomorrow. But what happens to these accounts? I mean it should obviously lose standings for being boosted but I don't think it would be fair to ban the account itself, if anything, Riot should be finding and targeting the boosters' accounts. But is that what actually happens?

Seems like a really shitty situation since if you get hacked, it would basically be the same premises.

They likely just get two week suspensions depending on what's been escalated on the account prior.

I guess it's possible if the account was in previous good standing and it was clearly hacked that you may be able to get this type of ban overturned but it's probably a case by case basis.

The account owners shared the account in that case. That is cause for an immediate permaban, regardless of prior behavior.

If it gets hacked, Riot has a process to recover the account. If its getting boosted, it gets permabanned anyways for boosting.

Boosting accounts is already bannable so the fact that they have the account's information means the owner's of the account agreed to a boost and tried to scam the booster so getting the account banned is gonna happen either way.

Account sharing of any kind is a bannable offence clearly stated in the terms and conditions you agree to
