Hey Guys,

I just came back from a long trip ( 1 week away from home and 10~12 hours flight ) and I noticed that as soon as I was going back to home I received an email saying that I was banned for using 3rd party programs.

Ok , I care about this game too much to use any third party programas I don't give a #!@#!@# about free wins or elo, I have fun trying to win and if I can't well I will lose and try again.

But I am pretty sure I didn't use any third party programs.

I use LoL Friends app for Android on my phone obviously, so my theory is that the system noticed that I changed ip's or location ( really weird locations in a short period of time ( it was Seattle -> Atlanta -> Mexico in less that 6 hours ).

So I am wondering if it is possible to get banned for doing that and maybe I got in this case.

I submitted a ticket but they didn't answer and I am pretty sure they won't say anything about my problem AKA "Riot is not going to help me",

So any one else got permanent banned for no reason?(apparently i used a 3rd party program)

I copied the title to a board from EUW as it looks so popular also I am calling ppl that got banned in a similar situation to speak up.

Thanks.

LOL Friends wouldn't get you banned unless it also got all of Riot banned as well. I highly doubt they care where the mobile app is logged in from.

( it was Seattle -> Atlanta -> Mexico in less that 6 hours )

Unless different people were playing from your account in Seattle, Atlanta, and Mexico, that wouldn't do anything.


Either your account was used by someone else and they used hacks or you used hacks. Quite frankly the average person isn't going to have some super unique piece of software on their computer that just so happens to look almost identical to a hack but isn't a hack, and if it was a commonly available piece of software the ban would be far more wide reaching.

This is a common issue i've seen on the boards lately and heard friends having. Just keep trying to contact Rito
