Don't think you can get banned for cursing? Think again.

I once used on my old account I made in August 2010 (I was being a bully) and I refrain from cursing on and offline but I actually said this guy was a N_____ and got suspended. It hit me like a rock dude. Never do it. Even though they may still exist(in your world or in another one's mind it is never okay to say) Proverbs 18:21 - "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof").. Or what have you people are bullies and I take responsibility for that behavior and I hope that it has changed me as a person since then. I remember clearly Riot monitoring my account. There is literally no excuse I remember Riot even posting that you lose more games (I believe it was 18%) more games when you curse they need to keep adding that....Please forgive me guys...my account name was dropdaed and it was many years ago.

But you can't get banned for cursing. I do it constantly. I like to think of them as flavor words.

You dropped the N-bomb, which Riot considers hate speech, not a curse word, which is why you got suspended.

You were punished for hatespeech, not for cursing.

I had a guy spam me the N word and then constantly called me a %%% while also describing me on how to kill myself and take my family with me. I stayed in lobby until everyone left and then reported him so I could get the notice. Sadly he was not banned. Even 3 days later I still see him on his account playing. So I gave up caring about the report since it seems just to choose what is punished and what is not.

you fucking get banned for fucking cursing, damn it.

it's when you directed that cursing at someone is when you can get banned (calling someone a N_ will probably do it)

I actually got suspended twice and you can see that I changed my name(in game name to "drawmeahorse") and illegally sold that account (at the time I did not know it was illegal until I fully read the disclaimer.) I quit the game and then came back to my level 26 alt account and of course did not change the way I felt about the old me but I still repent the way I acted it is never okay to curse in private or in public. The player I sold the account to achieved well over my rank plat something and I never got above gold in season 1 when I mained janna support ! ^.^ have fun guys. Be respectful and honest.

You are forgiven. Lol. Seriously though, don't be so dramatic about it. It's not a lesson in morality. You simply broke the rules set in place, and got punished for it. You're not a bad person. (Though idk why you would want to call someone a N_, essentially mocking the fact that a race of people were enslaved and treated like animals)

Hey guys,

We had a pretty extensive derailment of this thread that tread into the Universal Rules violating realm of religious discussion. As Kei143 mentioned, this is not the place to debate various religious topics so let's make sure we always keep those opinions off the Boards. I've cleaned up all parts of the discussion so that this thread can return to the original topic regarding being banned for cursing.

If anyone has questions regarding these removals, the reason we don't allow religious discussion, etc.... feel free to come to the Discord and we'll be glad to answer best we can.

Thanks
