So...apparently even mentioning a certain non-existent event in 1989 gets you insta 2 week'd

And then people say "Tencent does not affect Rito REEEEE"

No the game shown was the only one with a chatlog, only suspension I had before was a 10 game CR where I went over the top I admit and this word was only used as banter in my team chat. I mean I don't rly care about this account but eh, just goes to show that China is everywhere :)

Why didn't you include a screenshot of your chat logs to prove this?

How exactly do you figure this would work? Did Tencent say "Hey, you know about this ban system you have? I want you to include it automatically detecting things we want to censor!"? And by simple word-detection no less, since there's no way a machine learning system can pick up something that is mentioned so rarely and, I should suspect, even more rarely reported.

Or do they just hire a virtual shit ton of extra people who exclusively scan for politically problematic statements… who for some reason completely ignore all other sort of deplorable behaviour? And even then: Do you figure Tencent is micromanaging Riot so hard that they get to directly decide to ban individual players?

Yeah, I'm sorry, but I'm calling bullshit. You either have a tinfoil hat of epic proportions, are delusional about why you actually were banned or are straight up lying.

My personal bet: Since apparently you were talking about China in that game, you probably said a certain two-word phrase, both words starting with "ch" and only differing in one vowel, which is used to mock Asians and in particular Chinese. That phrase is a zero tolerance phrase and instantly yields a 14-day ban.

I wonder what racial slur you used...
