Hello everyone, I just want you to read my chat logs and point out what was so toxic about this, sadly we all know all chats are taken out of context and I personally believe that it is undeserved, because if you would see full chat, at least half of people out there would realize that I was not mad at all, just making dumb jokes. Think whatever you want, riot said their system is perfect, therefore it is, we deal with it.[slayer-jinx-wink]

My chat logs as a reason for 14 day suspension( < blah blah = my comments):

It's an edge case. However, the 14-day ban suggests that you already have a history of chat restrictions. Over the internet, what you consider a joke could come off as insulting or passive-aggressive, especially calling people boosted or complaining about their skill (see: game 1 Eve comment) - which is hard to justify as a "joke."

AeroWaffle6/2/2016, 6:26:17 PM4 votes

It seems like you are justifying a lot of what you said in the first game with, "can't take a joke?". And the people you were talking probably wasn't taking the joke, so why continue?

Second game you were tossing out insults.

Third game, overall negative passive aggressive attitude in chat.

So yeah, I believe the ban was deserved.

Fondling Gems6/2/2016, 6:24:18 PM4 votes

Honestly you were being pretty whiney sounding and not the kind of person I would want to play with.

I probably wouldn't report you, but I also don't report much. I can definitely see why you would get reported.

Note that the severity of the punishment is based on how many times you deserve a punishment. Each time Riot decides you deserve a punishment you get a worse one stacking up to permaban.

EvilDustMan6/2/2016, 6:21:54 PM3 votes

Yea. Instead of playing you continued arguments with your teammates, you were passive aggressive, you just kept the flames going instead of letting things lie.

Learn to just report and move on or your next punishment is a perma.

ModPrandine6/2/2016, 8:39:48 PM3 votes

Here's what I see.

Game 1:

Icy Spectre: evelyn is like worst champion and you die to her Icy Spectre: then flame me Icy Spectre: more toxic than my poison

You claim that it was a joke but given Vel'Koz's state of mind you should have known that he wouldn't have taken it as a joke.

Icy Spectre: see? Icy Spectre: you're bad flame more... Icy Spectre: he got boosted

Passive-aggressiveness and claiming that someone got boosted. I don't care if you meant it as a joke, you don't joke around about things like this, you just don't.

Icy Spectre: U Icy Spectre: u Icy Spectre: uuuu Icy Spectre: uuu

Spamming, self-explanatory.

Icy Spectre: bg flamers

Unsportsmanlike comment.

Not allot of stuff that I would personally punish for, but you make allot of rather sarcastic remarks that could come off as report/punish worthy.

My verdict: Punish (simply and mostly because I know that I wouldn't enjoy playing with someone with this kind of behavior).

Game 2:

Icy Spectre: did trysoft life choose you or did you choose trysoft life? Icy Spectre: your grammar is why you will lose your next 5 ranked games then get demoted to bronze VII, not diamond IV

Immediately we start out with a passive-aggressive remark and an insult because of someones grammar. Joke or not, don't say these kinds of things.

Icy Spectre: Because they are premade %%%%s

Insult directed towards a pre-made group, You know it's bad if it has to be censored here.

Icy Spectre: Gnar you're useless Icy Spectre: and you will already get chat restriction so flame all you want Icy Spectre: never said he is, muted Icy Spectre: actually we will lose because I don't want to play with those kids, ff at 20

Passive-aggressive comments and giving up early. None are helpful.

My verdict: Punish.

Game 3:

Icy Spectre: kindred diamond IV and not even trying Icy Spectre: Diamond IV and says that autoattackers need mana... I will rather stay in Wood X Icy Spectre: at least that stupid statement in that elo will be justified Icy Spectre: TL;DR don't talk to anyone, /mute all and troll all games because this game is full of %%%%s talking shit instead of trying to Icy Spectre: ez

Negative sarcastic and unsportsmanlike comment. Not needed, even if you meant it as a joke.

Pretty tame. Some less than desirable comments from you here sure, but I'm on the fence about this one honestly. I still wouldn't want to play with this kind of behavior though personally.

My verdict: Punish.

Conclusion: You have a habit of making allot of sarcastic remarks that also tend to be passive-aggressive and/or insulting/negative as well also. You claim that they were jokes but keep in mind that not everyone finds these kinds of "jokes" funny or humorous, especially if they're also insults as well. Keep in mind that because this is just text people often have no way of knowing if what you're saying is a joke or not, especially if you don't even make the effort to state that it was meant to be a joke.

My Advice:

  • If you're gonna make a comment that you intend to be a joke, make sure that you state that it is a joke also. Otherwise you have no right to try to pass it off as a joke if you make no effort to state that it is in fact a joke.
  • There are some things that you just don't joke about, such as claiming that someone will go on a losing streak just because of their grammar. Not everyone has English as their primary language, and even if it is often times there's just simply not enough time in a match to use proper grammar in a sentence. Be mindful and more respectful of that in the future.
  • Don't use racial slurs or anything that you know that the filter has to censor. If it's not helpful or constructive or appropriate then just don't say it at all whatsoever.

My overall and final verdict on this case: Punish.

P.S. This is definitely not the worst case that I've seen but ultimately it came down to the question "would I want to play with this kind of person in-game?", hence the uneasy/sketchy punish verdicts on games 1 and 3.

Even if you took the time to make such "helpful" annotations, don't be cheeky and give us the reform card.

Trusting banned people at face value isn't exactly advised.

You spend way too much time chatting.

BoostedToSilver6/2/2016, 6:25:53 PM1 votes

well if you find my post read my chat logs I sent a ticket to support asking if I got a 2 week ban for just this one game and they told me yes. as you see you can go straight to a 2 week ban for being sarcastic towards players.

Hey Summoner,

I'm sorry you felt that my message was automated but it was not. Being sarcastic towards other players has always been a punishable offensive as it's clearly not a positive way to act. If you want to act that way with your friends, that's up to you but behaving like that in League has never been OK.

In this case, it's seems clear that you were being sarcastic towards other players to antagonize them and that's also not OK. It's also very apparent that your teammates did not appreciate the way you were interacting towards them and, even after they told you this in no uncertain terms, you continued to make fun of them. That's not acceptable and it's always been possible to get a 2 week ban for this behavior; it looks like that's what happened here. As a result, the 2 week ban of this account was appropriate and we won't be lifting it.

You're free to make any boards posts you want but it won't affect our stance on this issue. If you have no new concerns, I'll have to consider this matter closed.

Game one.....

Your constantly harass teammates and engage in a negative conversation with them......MUTE REPORT MOVE ON.

ok vayne I'm cumming

This is a very dumb joke that can be taken highly offensive......

Game two....

Icy Spectre: Because they are premade %%%%s

Doesn't matter if your just repeating them your still toxic.

Icy Spectre: never said he is, muted

No need to tell them they are mute except to illicit a negative response.....as in flame baiting whish is most of your chatter......

Icy Spectre: actually we will lose because I don't want to play with those kids, ff at 20

More flame baiting.....

Game three.........

Icy Spectre: kindred diamond IV and not even trying < i just asked for help, was getting chased by udyr as I was jungling and he invaded, kindred decided to stay top and farm, thanks... Icy Spectre: Diamond IV and says that autoattackers need mana... I will rather stay in Wood X Icy Spectre: at least that stupid statement in that elo will be justified

Harassing a teammate and flame baiting........

Icy Spectre: TL;DR don't talk to anyone, /mute all and troll all games because this game is full of %%%%s talking shit instead of trying to

Considering first game it shows a habit of using hate speech...... which is what that filter is used for........

Icy Spectre: ez

No this didn't get you banned.....it was everything PLUS THIS.

So yes you deserve to be banned. Maybe you can reform..... I will tell you that if you continue behavior any where near this you will be back for a perma ban in about 15 days.............

Also, Riot never said their system was perfect. In fact, they are still looking at ways to improve the various behavior systems.

Icy Spectre6/2/2016, 6:21:18 PM1 votes

P.S. Who votes without quoting my words and explaing what's so toxic about them is only a troll.
