Honestly i'm a little upset. But I accept partial blame.

Honestly riot you got a good product but your community ruins it. The games become so toxic now players just constantly fall into Traps set up by people who purposely troll and they get their main accounts banned because of it. Or your bot Punishes players with out any sense of understanding in game

Game 1 In-Game Ambient Snow: well guess thats game.. muting team and pings and just doing my thing Ambient Snow: surrender at 15? Ambient Snow: umm yi's been afk for 5 min now Ambient Snow: iuf he's not back by 15 i'm just muitng and roaming Ambient Snow: honestly don't care just ready to surrender Ambient Snow: yi's been afk for 10 min now.. kinda just done.. Ambient Snow: alright muting team and pings you guys enjoy the game i guess Ambient Snow: no gamesa glitching Ambient Snow: or he did so we can't surrender Ambient Snow: its waht ever.. i'm just reporting him tired of losing games cause of this shit Ambient Snow: shut up troll Ambient Snow: just waiting to lose so i can report yi.. really it.. i'm salty as hell Ambient Snow: how is yi going afk for 15 min my fault Ambient Snow: literally lvl 6 ow and no gold and far behind Ambient Snow: shut up .. no need to be a poor winner.. Post-Game Ambient Snow: stupid we lost cause yi afked for literally 15 min.. Ambient Snow: nope i tried for the first 10 Ambient Snow: then after 10 min i was done.. he was lvl 6 when the entire team was fucking 13+

Was I salty yes and was I frustrated yes.. previous games for this entire few days have literally been every other game some one is Afking on my team and its 4v5 heck I eve had a game where it was 3v5

This last game yes I got a yi that literally just left at 5 minutes in at 5 I asked if we were going to surrender because yi was still afk. even told them at 15 i'm going to start roaming.

at 15 he still doesn't show back so I tried to surrender.. the team started going off on mer

at 20 min the game showed he was back but he just afked on the platform for another 5 min so now 20 minutes into the match he decides to come back he's 6 lvls down 32 farm no gold..

I mean come on riot This is the kinda crap that makes people upset and toxic in a ranked game.. And this has happened way more often in my past 5 games.. where its Extremely upsetting.

my report only showed this one game and yes I admit I was upset.. but come on.. but before I was banned I got to look up this yi's games and he has tons of games where he does this to his teams.. or int feeds this isn't fair that accounts do this to players..

either way I guess i'm done.. now I have my perma reason to quit this game..

gl to those who stay I suppose and best of wishes.

--------------------------------------------UPDATE------------------------------------------------

So i decided to file a Ticket and this is the response i got.

FROMAGE June 3rd 2019, 7:21:55 pm Hey Ambient Snow,

Thanks for writing in and sorry about blitz bot. I know it can really suck to not have access to your account any longer. Looking into your account, the game you were flagged for, and the chat log associated. I agree that the ban was placed correctly though. Your last penalty was a suspension, that was a final warning. Any sort of negativity after that could have subjected you to this ban.

I totally get how tilting other players can be. I get frustrated myself in games, especially when others are trolling and feeding. Even if they're being negative in chat it can tilt me. So I'll go ahead and look into any players that were being negative in that game as well and take appropriate action.

However, you are ultimately in control of your own actions and responsible for what you choose to say. Even if some one else is being worse, you can still earn a penalty if you're misusing chat to respond to them. The chat is only meant to be constructive to winning, so your chat is weighed to see what you're contributing. If it's not purely tactical information to help your team win, it's best to leave it out of chat.

I do see that you criticize others, blame them, tell them to shut up, and complain about them. This is not what our chat is meant for, not what we want in game and any negativity in chat can definitely result in a ban of the account.

I hope this clarified why the ban was placed but let me know if you still have any other questions or concerns about it!

That was not worthy of a punishment at all. I say worse things then this in chat all the time and the last time I was punsihed was in January. Riot really needs to be more consistent with their punishments.

You know i kinda can see why people say Riot has become so PC now since the old days.

I mean to be fair I was thinking I would go out on a horrible explosion of rage and upset at people telling them to die, cursing them out just solid toxic.

but to have my last game literally being upset at a player for being afk 25 minutes of the match.

I feel cheated.

u got banned for that only? what kind of ban? looks like nothing to me

Ambient Snow6/4/2019, 3:01:41 AM1 votes

I feel this is a bit unfair now that i think about it again.

I mean honestly i got it was my last chance to not be toxic or i got banned, But really , There is no clear definition of what is considered "toxic" And if i had known that it was a if you get reported for ANY FORM of toxic behavior Minor or Major, Then heck i would have muted my teams and chat For the rest of the year and never type again.

But that said i still just can't agree with this last punishment, I feel as many others have stated this to me wasn't toxic and not really punishable. But i can at least say i tried.

either way i know riot is not one to unban accounts that they deem " banned " So i guess Farewell guys and i wish you all the best of luck.

i feel that this game is a fun game, but i feel that riot needs to get a better definition of what is Considered " TOXIC and non Toxic" so that players can actually be better aware of what falls into toxic. Because if telling some one to Shut up is considered toxic, then wow... every one is toxic.

I also feel that As stated in many other Forums posts by players, With the huge increase in throw away accounts and trolling accounts, there need to be some form of Forgiveness for players who just lose there cool due to these players who purposely try to ruin others games.

i'm not saying its a 100% garuntee every time of forgiveness. but maybe some thing you earn with games played or some thing to say " hey We see you had some one who afked for 25 min in your game.. We see that it upsets you so we will look into punishing them But you need to make sure you keep your calm because right now you're just as toxic as they were. We will over look it this time because you've shown in your previous games that you're not like this but but if this happens again. the punishment sticks"

that way players at least get a sense of " yea i was wrong.. i need to better my self thanks for understanding then " Yea now i'm even more upset that i just got in trouble because some jerk ruined my game and i got upset at them."

So my final message came back and yup this is my final follow up

So account is gone period. apparently as posted by the riot individual Telling some one to "shut up " is a report able offense and considered punishable"

form what this experiences has taught me is a few things

  1. Never again spend money on games. especially in games where a community that is known for being toxic controls your accounts fate and can influence your behavior. ( aka the increase of throw away and troll accounts ruining ranked)

  2. just flat out mute all chats, There is no point in all chat or even party chat. honestly those are just traps and evidence for those to use against you.

  3. don't even bother trying to clear your name. Games like this, all support is going to do is tell you what you did and justify their punishment. Doesn't matter if you have screen shots, DNA, or the actual bullet. you're still guilty in their eyes

  4. Ranked play is just a fruitless dream, if riot is truly never going to have a solo queue so duo queue trolls can just ruin your game. or if riot is never going to have a actual " verification process" in order to make it so you have to register to play ranked.. then there is no point, with it being so easy to make a throw away account now. people are just going to use those to troll and what not to their hearts content.

  5. and finally just stop playing. honestly if you play a string of matches and you find yourself having more upsetting matches then you do fullfilling ones.. then some thing is wrong with that ranked system and maybe you should just play something else

( and i mean that with, IF you get beat cause your out played that is one thing, But if you play 10 matches and 6 of your 10 games are filled with leavers, or people being super toxic and trolling)

either way .. I bid you all farewell hope you all have a wonderful game experience and such and such

riot i hope some one actually reads theses posts and takes some of this into consideration cause right now, youre losing good players who are losing their accounts because they are getting fed up with your stead increase of throw away accounts and trolls purposely ruining their experiences.

Cheers

GG.
