Being done with this heinous game after six years

Yep, totally done. Six years of playing this and I can't handle this community or this game anymore. Not only that but the sad fact is Riot themselves supports these people.

So you ask people nicely not to do something in game because it could ruin the experience for others.. What do they do next? They do exactly what you asked nicely for them to not do, and they tell you that you are toxic because you asked them to not do that specific thing. You don't say anything bad but tell them why what they're doing is ruining the experience.. They insult you, call you things, and etc.. They report you, and you report them. Who gets the chat restriction or the ban? Well you do of course. Even if what you said wasn't that bad, you get the ban for it..

Now why do you get this done to you? Oh wait that's because the more money you spend on this game, the better treated you are by Riot. Seriously there are some toxic people in this game, and the only reason they're still around is because they spend a ton of money on it. There are people right now playing that are extremely toxic, and are getting away with it.

I have been banned and had chat restriction in the past without saying anything bad towards people who were saying bad things towards others. The funniest thing is, they never show you what the other people said, but only what you said. I get banned for wanting to enjoy the game, and wanting to experience it in a good way. I'm not banned right now, but I'm definitely done with this game. I think if this is the way things are going to be I'll take my thirst for MOBAs to Smite. At least there they don't treat their players like utter crap..

I've went from thoroughly enjoying this game to absolutely despising it.

If you've read the majority of threads both here and on the old boards in the TBI and PB sections then you would know that that is absolutely not true. If you expect jerks to be banned right away then that's just plain foolish honestly.

So you ask people nicely not to do something in game because it could ruin the experience for others.. What do they do next? They do exactly what you asked nicely for them to not do, and they tell you that you are toxic because you asked them to not do that specific thing. You don't say anything bad but tell them why what they're doing is ruining the experience.. They insult you, call you things, and etc.. They report you, and you report them. Who gets the chat restriction or the ban? Well you do of course. Even if what you said wasn't bad, you get the ban for it..

If you've already asked them to stop and they refuse to do so then there's nothing you can say or do that will stop them from trolling/being a jerk. Just mute and report them and as long as you're not being a jerk yourself then you won't get punished but they will.
Chances are they've already been punished before, but the moment you start acting poorly yourself is the moment you can be valid reported for your own poor behavior. If both of you act poorly then you'll both get punished. A common excuse by punished players is "I didn't say or do anything wrong!", and 95% of the time they're wrong, as even if the one or two games in the Reform Card don't show a whole lot of wrong-doing, there are always other games that they were reported in that show them acting poorly.

Now why do you get this done to you? Oh wait that's because the more money you spend on this game, the better treated you are by Riot. Seriously there are some toxic people in this game, and the only reason they're still around is because they spend a ton of money on it.

Bzzt, wrong. Paying and non-paying players are treated exactly the same by Riot.

Do paying players get leniency? Paying customers are treated exactly the same a non-paying customers by the Tribunal

Riot bans people because they make money off of forcing people to create new accounts and repurchase the skins.

Just stop. This is a really silly argument. I didnt pay for my account any more than you did and while I have bought a number of things, I didnt have to. Theres nothing relevant to competitive play that I couldnt have bought with IP.

Also, Riot actively discourages people from making new accounts.

Actually, if we're permabanning you we don't want your money or your time. Just find another game.

Yes there are toxic players, but be reasonable, there is no way that a game will be 100% toxic player free. As long as you're not the one being toxic yourself though then you never have to worry about being punished.

I have been banned and had chat restriction in the past without saying anything bad towards people who were saying bad things towards others. The funniest thing is, they never show you what the other people said, but only what you said. I get banned for wanting to enjoy the game, and wanting to experience it in a good way.

Well of course they don't show what others say as what they say doesn't matter, as when we look at your cases we only focus on your behavior and no one else's. Someone else's poor behavior doesn't excuse your own poor behavior.

I should be allowed to speak however I like to people who started it or are griefing me. I was provoked or taunted. I should be allowed to defend myself. Why did you vote to punish me when others were behaving worse?

You should know that Riot specifically instructs jurors to ignore most of the conduct of people in a case other than the accused. The reason for this is rather simple: rather than one person causing trouble, you now have two or more. In my more cynical moments, I have phrased it thus:

Timmy, Tommy and Sarah are trapped in an elevator. Timmy loses his temper and soils himself. Tommy gets angry at the smell and decides to retaliate by soiling himself. Now Sarah is trapped with two smelly idiots. Dont be Timmy or Tommy. Stop ****ing your pants.

An informal poll of the Tribunal regulars shows that most jurors are willing to excuse a certain amount of response to someone who is attacking you, but that it isnt considered an excuse for you to become toxic in response. You get MAYBE one or two lines of response. Anything more than that and youre part of the problem.

From Lyte (link (http://forums.na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?p=27540071#post27540071)):

We strongly believe that it is not OK to retaliate. If a player refuses to cooperate and says something negative, then players should ignore the player and report them after the game. Players can ignore or mute players by pressing the Mute button on the Scoreboard [when you hit TAB] in the game.

Emphasis mine.

You say you've been punished in the past, which means that you knew you were acting up but just didn't care, hence why you got punished. My guess is that's why you're "done" with the game, because you don't like that Riot punishes people who choose to behave poorly when around others. If you're gonna leave then so be it, but just know that many other companies also punish people who choose to display poor behavior when around others.
