14 day suspension for saying kys twice in 1 game.

Darth Meteos··2 votes·1,227 views

So basically finished a game and got a notification what said Your account has been banned or smth near it, anyways logged back in and the reform card told me that my acc is suspended for 14 days, it had a chat log from 1 game where i said kys twice and told our mid to go back to mid instead of farming at bot as i was behind. Can post the chat log if some1 doesnt believe. Anyways sent a ticket to support but i feel that Riot support takes ages to answer, even tho with a good reason so im writing this to here. I've never gotten any sort of restrictions for unsportsmanlike conduct, boosting etc, the only kinda restrictions i've gotten are leaverbusters. No im not mad about the ban, im mad about not getting the season rewards. I've sent a ticket to support but am also posting it here incase. Edit: forgot to mention im friendly and positive most of the time, if i get tilted i just mute all and continue playing.,

Riot has a zero-tolerance policy for encouraging self-harm, which telling another player to kill themselves definitely qualifies as. The warning IS the 14-day ban -- that is how unacceptable this behavior is considered to be.

I'd never want to play a game with anyone that wished death on someone else

Well thats a shame to know, imean i dont want to be toxic here or anything but no1 asked would you or would you not.

KYS is part of the zero-tolerance policy and will get you a 14 day ban instead of a chat restrict.

Thanks for the answer! Now i know what to not do next time im tilting, prolly just muting all from now on and focusing to the game 110%.

Hopefully you do realize the weight of these words on someone's soul.

Are you fucking kidding me? your soul? some stranger tells you to kys and it effects you? honestly dunkey is right. the only fun thing about this game is shit talking and riot takes that away. literally fucking kys <3

It would if someone is going through hardship. Words hurt more than anything physical damage in most cases.

wrong, if kys is something that affects you so deeply, you A: shouldn't be playing a game with such a notoriously toxic community and B: should have muted everyone if you chose to play a game and not accept the consequences. Sure people NOT being toxic is the ideal answer but you have to be realistic so.

"kys" is straight to 14 day ban. You skip tier if you use hate speech.

Riot really ought to make their policy on that more clear. People can come on the forums and try to rationalize it all they want, but at the end of the day its to avoid liability and that's it. I've heard crazy stories about online games, people going over to a friends house to stab them to death with a sword because they stole an item from them in an MMO, but I've yet to ever hear of one actual case of someone killing themselves because they were told to in a online game. And anyone who actually did would be such an outlier, and should have never been on the internet doing anything involving people to begin with, that no policy should have ever been considered around that person. But people are losing their accounts all of the time because they don't come on the forums to read about all of the people who have already gotten punished because they typed those 3 damning letters out of tilt or out of meme in their game.
