Got permaban after playing 5years, don´t understand the system and this community

Hi, I got permabanned yesterday. Been playing since season 1.. or maybe season 2, dont know. In those years I got two times a chatban, I think. But those chatbans were very small, 10 and 25 games, so minor offense?!

Other then that I got a 2-weeks ban like 4-5 months ago, dont know the exact date.
Probably deserved, I wont even argue about that, cant even remember what this was about. And I didnt get an email, just like I didnt get one yesterday.

But IMO this reporting system is a joke. Or the community. You cant even talk to must of the players. New trend is writing "dont get me tilted". Come on, what is this? My mid lane Ahri misses his charm and we lose a fight. Someone in my team asks "why did we lose fight". I answer with "cause Ahri missed charm" and then that midlaner writes "dont get me tilted". Wtf did I write? Everything is flame for most of the players. You write them a harmless sentence, you ping them and they get annoyed/toxic/"tilted". They take everything personally and think everything is "flaming". I try to communicate with my team, cause I play Main-Jungle. I write things like "care, enemy jungler botside, dont fight" or "wait me pls, going b and coming" and if they dont listen I tell them something like "pls wait me next time or pls listen next time". I mean, im jungling, I have time to care for such things, I dont have to last hit or be constantly aware of whats happening in lane, I can do my jungle and look out for my team. And for that, most of the time, I get insulted, reported and flamed. Or in the case of my permaban-delict, I get insulted and flamed and I let that get under my skin.

That was the case yesterday and the reason for my permaban. I wont lie, I was flaming in the last game I played. But my WHOLE team was blaming me for no apparent and logical reason and it was pretty obvious to me that they would report me after game. I was playing 9-2 Eve and concentrating on Top/Mid lane ganking, while telling Botlane to play safe. (not commanding, simply asking nice and in a normal tone). They got camped by enemy jungler and then the "blaming jungler" game started. So I got angry, I insulted them back and here I am, permabanned. I dont think it´s fair, but whatever.

I know that my permaban wont get reversed, I will have to buy a new one or make a new one. My question is:

Why are like 60% of players so sensitive? Why cant you just listen to what other players tell you, try to take it in and be open for tips? Why you have to think instantly that someone else is trying to lecture you, or thinking he´s a pro? I dont get it. And that´s frustrating.

I have like 1 in 100 games where I insult people. Most of the time I just get reported cause I write too much. And another thing I get reported for and which was a direct cause for my permaban, one of the proof-logs: Enemyplayer says "you guys are just lucky, etc etc" .. my team and I did kinda make fun of him cause he was blaming his own team while playing badly, so after the game he reported me. And there is really NO insult, no flame in that log. Nothing. I can post the whole thing here.

So what is the reason there? Enemy is mad, reports me and I get permabanned for what? Why is that a reason to permaban me?

So you understand that at this point, you've made it through all of the warnings before a permanent ban, agree that the action taken was deserved, change nothing, and then you're surprised when you get permabanned?

I'm sorry but, that's not how this works. The chat restrictions and the 2-week ban were to serve as warnings that your behavior is unacceptable. You are given logs that show what kind of behavior got you banned in the first place, so ignorance is not an excuse.

That was the case yesterday and the reason for my permaban. I wont lie, I was flaming in the last game I played. But my WHOLE team was blaming me for no apparent and logical reason and it was pretty obvious to me that they would report me after game.

You don't get to rage at someone for something they might do. You don't get to rage at anyone for anything. If someone is harassing you, mute them and report them at the end of the game. If you want do discuss the behavior that led to your permaban, feel free to post your reform card.

Reports only flag your match for review. The system has to verify the reports are valid for it to count against you, so you will not be punished if you were not being negative/toxic. If you want the boards community to review your behavior you can post your chat logs from the reform card, but if you want to contest the ban you'll have to submit a Support Ticket.

My question is:

I'm a jungle main, so I get bitched at a lot. I cannot recall a time when I bitched at a mid laner because they missed a charm (shit happens in teamfights...skillshots get missed all the time, even by you I'm sure). And I don't tell people what to build or how to play unless they ask. What surprises me about many of the posts I see in this forum is that a great deal of perma-banned players have the same mentality/attitude as you.

You ask questions like "why don't people just listen to me instead of being little bitches" etc.

I believe this is a form of narcissism. For whatever reason, you believe that you are so much better than the people you're playing with (which just isn't true btw...the MMR system doesn't match you with players far better or far worse than you) that they should listen to you as an authority of how to correctly play their role.

Your problem isn't the frequency of your flaming tirades...the root cause is your hubris. If you didn't assume you were more knowledgeable, or better at the game than your teammates, you probably wouldn't flame them so much.

So, if you expect your "sensitive" teammates to take some criticism and be "open for tips", my advice to you whenever it is that you make a new account: Stop assuming you are better than the people you're playing with, and understand that people (including yourself most importantly) make mistakes in game.

Or kids could just grow the fuck up? They can mute. Why is it even reportable if you allow it to happen. Take the road out and mute. I just got perma banned as well. So I know your pain.

I dare say that the mute button saved my account more than once :D

Have you sent in a player support ticket explaining your scenario?

Xidphel9/23/2016, 3:36:48 AM1 votes

it was pretty obvious to me that they would report me after game.

So you gladly gave them a reason to report you.

can we see your chat logs just to confirm what you are saying?

Chatlogs or it didnt happen

If you really feel it's an unworthy ban then you gotta talk to Riot about it. Also it would probably be a good thing to post the chat on boards if you're gonna post on boards at all.

I couldn't bother reading the whole thing but I agree with you. I like junglers like you who actually communicate game related things and warn me of things. It is a sad culture in this game where anything you say gets twisted as you being some snobby fucker passive aggressively insulting someone. It's fucked up. I take things at face value... I don't assume it's some kid talking shit everytime someone says something factual about a play or whatever.

Edit: oh and I like that you didn't exaggerate like a bitch with your 60% Stat lol. Good for you. You may have deserved the ban, idk, but I do agree with your sentiment.
