If I got banned for being a toxic ass, then I would totally understand. But no. I was being trolled all game. (I'm not some idiot in low elo thinking that my deaths are because of someone trolling, no. I'm a diamond+ player who knows what it looks like for someone to be intentionally losing a game for us, so there's no need for anyone to tell me this person wasn't trolling.) Any comment I made was to either try to calm the person trolling down, (which I said once, and triggered her into trolling more), me begging the person to stop trolling, or calling a team related play. I did say things like, "We need to stop ___" which we did. I don't think that's rude at all, but I can see how it's seen in a negative fashion. I am beyond mad that I cannot possibly appeal this ban even tho this person was legit 100% out to ruin players experience with the game, but hey, the chat logs don't show it so it's not wrong am I right? I have received a permanent ban once before, and I was not at all in the slightest bit angry because I DESERVED IT. This time? No, I really feel like I don't deserve it this time. It is absolutely rediculous that someone can play the game in such a fashion to intentionally anger people, to intentionally lose games, to not get banned for these actions making it so they have a sense of security when they're trolling. So stupid. Thank you Riot Games for banning me just because you read the chat of me telling my Janna: "Stop trolling plz" over and over again. But hey! If I was reading the chat log, I would see that as flame too :))))

Chat log of game I got banned for: GTaco: He saw someone get a free skin when their gf broke up with them GTaco: I don't see why you're trolling with your summs tho (Janna typing) GTaco: shh GTaco: you type too much (Game continues, Janna still trolling. I'm focused on playing as best as I can.) GTaco: ty GTaco: twitch no sum (Janna still trolling, playing my best.) GTaco: wtf GTaco: dude GTaco: i thought you were coming (I got baited, my fault I died, but if I saw my teammate didn't want to fight I'd back off. Just an angry comment, no flame here.) GTaco: wtf GTaco: just GTaco: kill GTaco: him GTaco: sigh (Someone got away with low hp and my team didn't see him.) GTaco: janna GTaco: can you stop trolling now GTaco: im trying to win GTaco: this is annoying (I got dove the first time. Asked for janna to stop trolling.) GTaco: yo GTaco: stop trolling GTaco: play forreal (Got dove again...She still refused to help me.) GTaco: go GTaco: in GTaco: Go GTaco: in GTaco: go GTaco: k (Was playing sivir, Just letting my team know I was coming in when they were running, we won this fight.) GTaco: can we stop trolling now plz (got dove again..... At this point I have no vision in my jungle, and no tier 2 tower so it's really hard for me to play the game as an adc with no support, or wards since she refused to build Sight stone because she was trolling.) GTaco: I'm not talking to you (Our syndra thought I was telling her to stop trolling, I just saidI wasn't talking to her.) GTaco: nop GTaco: ult GTaco: no ult GTaco: no ult GTaco: no ult GTaco: why scared of yi with no ult GTaco: lol (Team was running from a yi, he solo ulted me, I was trying to let them know they can kill him. They continued to run and told me they thought he had ult (lol)) GTaco: chasing singed GTaco: lol (someone asked where our trundle went.) GTaco: help your team GTaco: instead of taking 10 years to kill (Related to trundle chasing the singed while abandoning us to do so) GTaco: rumble ur behind on lvls (Rumble was 3 levels down, and had very little farm but was trying to be proactive, I just back pinged him and asked him to farm.) GTaco: can we GTaco: avoid fighting GTaco: yi GTaco: unless we catch him GTaco: rumble is super weak GTaco: rumble has 60 farm. GTaco: level 11 GTaco: yi alive (Team was trying to make a play with rumble when he was in a really bad spot, thought we should let him catch up before we try to teamfight against the extremely fed yi who was like 3/4 levels up at this point.) GTaco: if janns gonna troll GTaco: i just wanted to farm my items GTaco: thats totally fair (Janna was flaming me and said I was doing nothing when I was trying my best to help when I had very little resources to work with because of janna trolling me so I explained why I was bottom lane farming when I was behind.) GTaco: we should baron GTaco: come GTaco: gogo GTaco: finish GTaco: -- (Everyone died after we got baron, I thought it was over.) GTaco: gg report janna please GTaco: maybe GTaco: gg (they got to our nexus, but could not end.) GTaco: xd GTaco: I'm not even typing (Janna says I was being toxic and should be reported in all chat, I said this in reply also in all chat.) GTaco: thanks GTaco: She's been acting like she's done nothing wrong. lol. (Enemy team recognizes janna trolling and agrees to report) GTaco: lol.. GTaco: you just tp'd GTaco: like GTaco: 2 mins ago (Enemy ryze made a troll comment about his tp. Just responding here.) GTaco: we hav to defned our inhibs (Defending our inhibs vs their baron buff.) GTaco: i am strong now (I got a ton of farm from defending base.) GTaco: was ikllingsupers that whole time GTaco: -__- (letting my team know/mentally exhausted from killing 6 supers at a time.) GTaco: we have GTaco: more gold GTaco: i think (Letting my team know we are stronger since their only fed member was the Yi.) GTaco: gotta wait for inhibs again GTaco: then when we win a fight GTaco: we should be able to end (lost inhibs, letting team know what we should do.) GTaco: kill GTaco: the portal GTaco: no (zzrot) GTaco: you're not gonna win GTaco: Grats GTaco: like i said GTaco: you're not gonna win (This is not a negative comment. It was just some friendly trash talk with enemy team, I was almost certain we lost. They got our nexus to sub 100hp.) GTaco: I've had to deal wiht a troll on my team GTaco: Don't ask for empathy (Enemy team was talking about having to play with one of their obnoxious teammates and said they deserve the win, just replying that we have someone who was trolling.) GTaco: group (Preparing the final fight.) GTaco: gg (we lost the final fight.)

Any comment I made was to either try to calm the person trolling down, or calling a team related play.

Simply making calls for your team or trying to deescalate a negative situation would not be a valid report. However, if you are causing more problems by the way you are saying it, it might be. If you post your reform card we may be able to provide some insight if you were doing it in a negative manner.

me telling my Janna: "Stop trolling plz" over and over again

That would definitely be considered negative and possibly punishable behavior. Spamming certainly is regardless of what you say, but also accusing other players of trolling is toxic; if you are right, they are probably going to escalate their trolling and direct it at you. If you are wrong, then you are simply harassing them. Either way it's likely to hurt the whole team. If a troll is intent on trolling, there is nothing you can do but play around them and report them at the end.

You're not the only one. My friend got banned for telling this guy to stop trolling and feeding. I am not even joking. The most toxic thing my friend said was 'Nice mastery 7. Too bad you still don't know how to ult.' The guy who was trolling was also the one who initiated the toxicity(in champ select he started bitching at my friend for picking Yasuo). Tbh, I understand if Riot wants to ban my friend, but ffs ban the guy who started it too. Had the Janna never opened her mouth, my friend would have had no reason to retaliate. Furthermore, I don't see how telling people to stop trolling or feeding is toxic anyways. Unless you're calling people idiots, retards, %%%got, etc. Actual insults, I don't see how you can be reported. Who cares if you are giving a guy a hard time cause he's feeding? He is RUINING the game for 4 other people on your team. If that person feeds, you should have the right to complain a little. Should you call him an idiot or some other kind of insult? No, but you should have the right to be upset about some guy making the game nearly impossible to win - not to mention the fact it doesn't feel rewarding giving a feeder a win. If someone on my team is 0-10-0 or some sht, I don't even feel good about the win. I'm just like 'wow I gave this undeserving guy a win. I'm partially to blame for inflated ELO now.'

if you wanna discuss it post the chatlogs or a screenshot of them. the board rule is chatlogs or it didnt happen Edit: if the chatlogs do show toxic behaviour i honestly dont care what they said its not about who started or who did what. if you cant keep calm you shouldnt play league

Did you actually get banned or just chat restricted? Was this your first "offense"? I quote that because you did nothing wrong here
