Chat Restriction for asking my team to FF because of trolls, guess who got punished?

After I was demoted because of a troll duo who reported me negative attitude, I also received a 10 in game chat restriction. I did not say anything to the Anivia jungle and Alistar support personally but had to vent as I had already lost 3 games previously and knew I was going to demote to platinum 5(I did) . There was also no way to know Alistar would refuse to properly play his role, as he had switched exhaust to smite at the last possible second. Furthermore, aside from Alistar refusing to support and play properly they also soft inted for the duration of the game. From minute 1 I saw Alistar flash and Q an enemy team when my team could have walked away. Anivia would go mid and give steal CS instead of helping. They also frequently invaded the enemy jungle, while our ADC was left to fend for himself dive after dive and as a result we soon lost bot tower because they refused to help.

I admit I did go overboard on typing, something I tried to avoid doing but I really couldn't control myself this game. I did not personally insult anybody. I even considered leaving the game and now regret not doing so, If I had avoided this chat restriction I would have been honor level 2 in less than a week as I was already 2 thirds of the way there.

As a fun fact, this account used to be permanently banned for refusing to die in ARAM as a potential win strategy. However, it didn't work as I lost game after game and received enough reports for me to get banned until I was able to appeal. However, what I'm seeing is the exact same behavior and even though I had them both reported they will not be punished because from what I learned, it only applies if you do it over several consecutive games.

It's not so much that you were asking, but the fact that you kept asking. Had you just done it once it would have been fine. But the fact you kept pestering, dare I say spam it makes it wrong.

If people wanted to ff they would have. If they didn't and believed there was still a chance then you need to keep up that postitive and keep playing no matter the outcome.

Halfroot: well 3 losses in a row Halfroot: time to demot to p5

The first two lines of negativity are just at the end of the pre-game lobby. That's not a great start.

Halfroot: enjoy the free lp Halfroot: it's time for me to demote Halfroot: really thought someoen would dodge Halfroot: but u know, truth doesn't exceed expectations Halfroot: can we ff @ 15

And you pick right up with it in the in-game chat, not missing a beat after the loading screen.

You should know full-well that defeatism and negativity aren't welcome in League.

Halfroot: not bcuz 2 trolls ran double smite jg Halfroot: and we have no support Halfroot: just go next Halfroot: nvm 2 trolls will vote no until they go to nexus

And neither is harassing teammates.

Halfroot: wtf am i even saying Halfroot: can we just sit in base

Advocating for other players to break the rules is in and of itself against the rules.

Halfroot: adc constantly dying Halfroot: bot lost Halfroot: my time wasted Halfroot: ah nice Halfroot: no jg help either

More pointless blaming...

Halfroot: guys can we sit in base Halfroot: and open Halfroot: pls Halfroot: if im the only one Halfroot: i get leaverbuster

First off, you'd get Leaverbuster anyway, if not worse.

Second, typically, when people open lane, they get treated to a 14-day ban, because opening lanes is trolling.

Halfroot: f this shyt Halfroot: im sitting in base Halfroot: no wards no support Halfroot: no jg Halfroot: no team Halfroot: and no 15 minute ff

More incessant negativity, blaming teammates, and complaining about "no 15 minute ff". For real, nobody likes a broken record.

Halfroot: why why should i play a game that's 99% lost

Why would you sign up for a game if you're not gonna play it?

Halfroot: no i already knew game was pretty much lost Halfroot: really thought someone else would dodge Halfroot: just enjoy the fre win pls

And, of course, the last three lines (potentially more, given it seems you were talking to the enemy team about how apparently unfair your lot was) are negative to cap off a match full of negativity.

This chat restriction is fully merited. Nobody wants to deal with a player having a game-long negativity vent. Find other ways to vent that negativity than the in-game chat.

{quoted}

but had to vent as I had already lost 3 games previously

I admit I did go overboard on typing

I really couldn't control myself this game.

sounds like you know exactly what you did wrong, what do you need from us?

You were negative in the entire game. You were trying to persuade your teamates to break the rules by telling them to go afk and you kept spamming for ff on 15 minutes. You were constantly blaming them without looking at your own mistakes. (I dont say here that you were wrong, but you must keep your temper in situations like this). The reason you got banned? Mainly negativity and a little bit harassment. We all have trollers. I know the feeling. I myself have flamed them and what did i earned by flaming these monkeys? A beautiful 14 days ban. You brought youself into this punish, not the trollers. I brought myself into the 14 days ban too back in September. If you get punished, remember that YOU brought yourself into the punish. The fact that some monkeys were trolling, doesn't justify your flame. You flame, you're out. And riot doesn't even care what the situations are.
