What happened to

There was a thread last night in player behaviour of someone threatening suicide if riot didn't unban their account (Perma ban for the 4th time) Thread was deleted this morning.

Any idea what happened? Did Riot send the authorities to their house? Thats what they did to me when I made a thread like that.

Also, I tried to get ahold of the suicide prevention line for them last night but their was no option for reporting VIA a game forum.. and Riots support was no good for that.

It seemed serious though, the person put a time and said they were going to do it in 2 hours.

If I have reason to believe someone is suicidal, how do I report it to Riot for them to get ahold of authorities? I could not find an option anywhere for that, even in support query.

At that point, ID just report the thread and let the mods get ahold of Riot.

I'm a suicidal risk daily, doctors are aware and go to therapy but this is something that would be beyond League of Legends and it isn't Riot's issue to try to tackle. Making a threat to get an account unbanned won't get it back because if it did everyone would just say something like that.

They do take it seriously though, It sort of is in their hands if it's on their forums. I've had the cops called on me for making a threat and they knocked on my door at 2 am and we're like "Yeah we got told you were on some forum making threats about suicide "oh uh I was just "trolling " "oh ok well dont do that shit " I was like wooow Riot called the popo on me.
