EDIT: A Rioter has responded. Response to it below.
Quote:
I already made a thread to contest that suspension, but it was not given a response. I explained my rationale for deciding to sell my items-- our AD carry was doing poorly, and AP Annie falls off while AD Annie does have a relatively strong late-late game if your team is capable of protecting her (Graves has Smoke Screen, Amumu has an ult). I also never went afk in that match-- I have NEVER done that. Ever. Are there some games where I wish I could? Yes, like in that LeBlanc game. But I trudge on, and that ends with me dying more and more in a snowballing process. I'll be honest-- I'm bad at getting back in the game after getting curbstomped early game.
But is being bad at something truly a reason to be banned? Isn't this a PvP game, where one player or team will be worse than the other? You also have to keep in mind that there are some champions that actually can safely ult a minion wave (for example, Ezreal, Miss Fortune) if you know a team fight isn't coming.
Please read the link. The chat log is extremely short, and there's only two games.
First Game: I was reported for having the word "Girl" in my name. LOL? Does Riot even realize how incredibly sexist this community is? "go back in the kitchen you ho"
Second Game: I play support LeBlanc in normals (I usually do really well as unconventional supports. 3-0 as Support Teemo, 2-1 as Support LeBlanc). The problem is the enemy bot lane did really well, and I ended up with 0-13-5.
3 day ban. Done buying RP.
If you don't respond to flames, you get banned.
If you respond to flames, you get banned (this is how I got a warning before. I begrudgingly accepted this.)
What do you do if you do poorly in a match? Do you just AFK? That's reportable too.

but you said "i play leblanc to be a king ******bag"
That was in response to Zyra who asked "why you have to be so gay" after I bursted her to 15% of her health. Teemo, LeBlanc, and Singed are the holy trinity of annoying champions.

TWO WRONGS DONT MAKE A RIGHT THO
I never flamed back at anyone. The most flaming I did was comment to Lee Sin that Lee mid isn't a standard pick either, and telling Ezreal (constructively and politely) that he should poke with his Q when the enemies run into the brush.

you've been warned in the past
And I reformed after realizing that you're not allowed to respond to people insulting you. That wasn't enough, apparently. Even if you don't respond, the tribunal will still hit punish.

No. We do not remove or reduce suspensions that result from the Tribunal or Leaver Buster for any reason or under any circumstances.
Above is why I can't sent an e-mail.

I do hope that as a gold player you would know what you're doing that is getting you killed and causing you to end a 40 minute game at lvl 13. It does suggest trolling or afking. Just saying.
I didn't want to take experience away from the carries post lane phase. Also, LeBlanc falls off... like, really hard. This is before the preseason changes.
EDIT: If anyone wants to play together on their smurfs, post your IGN :3. Mine is only level 16, but I'm working on getting it to 30 before I'm eventually permabanned.
Might I remind everyone here that (As Lyte has explained numerous times, I might add) the only way to show up in the tribunal in the first place was to have numerous reports- more than any other Summoner.
You had an attitude in the second game OP, if you are in the tribunal at all it means you have demonstrated a pattern of this behavior.
This is largely true. We've found that the Tribunal is really good at weeding out players who consistently display toxic behavior.
But one part the system could do better is in displaying this toxic behavior more clearly to players who will say anything to make themselves look innocent.
It's no secret that after you've received MANY reports, in MANY games, from MANY people, the system will then go through your Reported Games and randomly select them for a Tribunal case.
In some cases these games can be slam dunks, in other cases they may not be as clear cut. But if you get a guilty judgement you shouldn't just assume you were banned for "two games". A player is never banned simply for two games
In this case?
Well, two games were not the reason behind getting a Tribunal Case in the first place. We know that players have bad games. Weve actually built the Tribunal System with this idea in mind.
Thats not what happened here. In fact, since the previous 3 Day suspension the player has been reported in over 45 games.
Over 45 Games? That's toxic behavior that affects over 405 players in League of Legends.
Think about that. 1 player vs. 405 ruined experiences in League of Legends.
Some of the things that most likely resulted in crossing the threshold to generate a Tribunal Case?
Well, half way through the game selling all of your AP Items on a caster and buying AD Items just to spite your team mates isnt a very nice thing to do.
Afking at the Fountain because your Surrender Vote failed is another pretty effective way to gain reports and lose friends too.
Running in the jungle and using your character's Ult on creeps and minions to purposely anger your teammates? Yeah, that will probably do it too.
Its a shame that those games were not among the randomly selected to be shown here. Because then we wouldn't even have to be having this conversation.
You mentioned that you had learned your lesson from your previous 3 day ban, but I'm not sure I believe you. Obviously you've cut back on the toxic speech, which is great. But there's a lot of way you can be a jerk to your team mates. And if you're not ready to be a teamplayer and treat others with the respect they deserve then perhaps you can really use this 7 day suspension to reflect more on what else you can do.
Because right now, what you're doing isn't working.
You can't get banned for having a bad game-- are you kidding me?
