@Riot At this point I'm getting frightened to play games.

I recently took a 2-3 month hiatus from ranked (because of Preseason). My last ranked game I had dropped to the bottom of S3, meaning I was not doing too hot. During my break, I've gotten good enough where 50% or more of my games I am fed something around 10/2, and I am usually duoing with my other silver friend. When I go back to ranked at the start of season 6, there is a good chance I will do very well in those 10 promos.

This means my ranked game stats with go from playing solo and doing terrible to all of a sudden having 10/2 games with a duo. On top of that, I've had to reinstall java like 4 times (if that matters).

You see a new thread every day about people saying they were unfairly banned, and 90% of them did deserve it. But there are those threads that you know the ban was a mistake, you know that the person got flagged for something that the system misinterpreted. We all know that the system messes up, and it's even scarier that these people making those threads are saying that Riot won't respond or won't review the ban. That scares me. If I someone get flagged for something I didn't do, I'll lose my account. That's, like, 30 days (hour wise) of play and 50 bucks of money.

We need some sort of human protection. We need a safety net that if someone is banned for scripting, a Rioter will personally view the case and TELL the person what they did wrong. Because if that person didn't realize that some program they were using to record games is what got them banned, their next account is going to get flagged too.

Or we could just grow up as a community, stop tattleing on each other over stupid crap and then have riot actually focus on the people who deserve bans, like cheaters and scripters. But riot only cares about money, and thats why their game gets worse all the time.

My favorite goes like this:

5th pick - "I'm mid" Rest of team - "2nd pick already selected mid" el trollo - "idc noob i mid i carry im plat smurf" *selects Yasuo*

*In game Yasuo 0-8 by the 7 min mark and feeding all lanes while forcing Talon to support*

Top - Yasuo, I really wish you would stop trolling

Yasuo - /all please report Garen for verbal abuse, k thanks

*rito* 10 game chat ban on Garen for "ruining Yasuo's fun by being a toxic shit."

Community - "omg, league so toxic. ppl like Gayren should really jus stop playin and game wuld b btr!

I just really don't get how they think throwing around chat bans without addressing the causes are going to help anything. You would think they would have learned by now...but they haven't.

You don't understand, the community HATES toxic people. More than trolls. As long as people say "hey, saying retard IS A SIN PUNISHABLE BY DEATH, but trolling is just kinda bad", nothing will change.

No, I do understand. I'm just saying how I don't understand how rito can't see nothing is changing with their current method.

Something is changing, though. Players like me are being purged from the game. I guess losing toxic players results in less revenue lost than keeping them in the game. Riot doesn't care what the causes are. Be it trolls, accidental reports, etc., it doesn't matter. The fact of the matter is that for whatever reason, Riot makes more money without "toxic" players, so that's what they're going to do.

There was a misunderstanding one game where two people (I was one of them) was jungle. It both appeared on our screens differently, so it was a mistake. The other guy was in a group of three with similar names and I was blamed the entire game for ruining it and that I was a trolling etc etc etc. The ENTIRE game I was trying to, as patiently as possible, calm the guy down by saying it was ok and that it was a mix up. I let him have his side of the jg, didnt take his camps, I didnt even say anything when he took "my" camps. Even his friends said abosultly nothing as he raged at me. His friends didnt want to tell him he was wrong.

I got reported by him, the only time i was ever reported.

If you were playing normals on the same account on the same computer you will play ranked then I don't believe there is going to be a problem, unlike, say, people who move around rather often and/or have more than one PC.

As for reason, yes, they should say instead of hiding behind "This information could compromise our infallible system!" steaming pile of bovine excrements.

I moved houses/internet around 4 months ago and got a new computer (still on my new house's internet) around 3 months ago. I've only played on my one account, although I tried making a smurf a while ago but only played like 2 games on it.

Let's say, just for sake of argument, ten percent of the third party people who post here are unfairly banned. We only see a couple posts a week from people who bother posting. So only a small percentage of people post from those that get banned. From the MILLIONS that play.

I highly suggest never leaving the house. You may get struck by lightning.

I'm not worried that theres a good chance it will happen, I'm worried that it can happen, and has happened more than once. It might be the false idea that it happens often, but the thought that 50 dollars and most of time for the last year would just be deleted isnt the best feeling.
