game 1: he stayed for 25 minutes positive, it gets really anoying when you'r doing well and you could easily win your game and because people just dont listen you lose, of course im not trying to say that what he did after 25 min is acceptable. Outside that he got reported by 1 person on the opposing team, so no one on his own team tought he crossed the line. And it was probably their zyra who started it, by tauting him.

game 2: not even report worthy..

game 3: ^

game 4:just 2 people who dont like each other i guess, clearly they played more games with each other. maybe report worthy but considering for what reason he got reported in his past 3 games defintly no punishment worthy

game 5: can't really say this is harrashing either.. its annoying but its just a reaction on something that happend in game and what other people on his team said. He just stated the truth, and didnt flame or harash even once. Ezreal is clearly upset about his preformance and probably reported everyone on his team.

conclussion: only game 4 & 1 is open for discussion if its report worthy or not. The other 3 are just normal games . But this defintly shouldnt have come to a punishment of course i dont know how he behaves in other game since it randomly selects 5 games. And usual if a player gets reported 5 times in the 5 games in the tribunal its not ban worthy, you could get reported in theory 45 times so if you get reported 5 times and 3 of them arent report worthy makes you get reported by around 4,5% of the people you played with. so that would make 95,5% of the people having a 'good' league experience

Look, the original post is a massive wall of text justifying the behavior of the person in the reform card.

If your behavior has to be justified, then the punishment was justified.

Understand that the Tribunal isn't just going in on random games where no one reports anyone else and deciding "Hey, we don't like jokes about autism. Ban that guy." That's not how it works. To even show up in the Tribunal, you must accrue numerous reports. This means that even if the behavior was meant to be joking, it was disruptive to at least one player in the match.

Now, you can wall-of-text justify the behavior all you want, but what does that do for the player in the game who you were offending? And what does it do for players in future games you might play with? Nothing. All it does is try to make Tribunalists (who likely haven't even played with you) perhaps feel more lenient toward you than the players in the match who felt the need to report you.

I read the cases and as tame as it was, compared to what i have read int he past, I till believe this was justified. Though offense itself wasn't that bad it still happened After other time bans meaning his behavior was not improving, That is enough for a Permaban in most books and i can agree with it. I am sorry it happened but it did and the best your friend can do is learn from the mistakes and not berate his team if they do poorly instead try and help them learn better builds and strategies instead of complaining and yelling about/at them

Sorry, but I was willing to report halfway through the first game. His words to Zyra may have been "competitive jests" (though I doubt it since he repeated them afterward in team chat), but the long list of abusive comments toward his own team was more than enough for his ban to be deserved in my opinion.

Also, you're ignoring the fact that, as a permaban, he went through the tribunal several other times AND THEN was reviewed by Riot. This isn't exactly a sudden thing.

As to his years played, games played, or ELO rating... so? What difference should it make who you are? If we were to let him go for that reason, it would destroy the credibility of the system you criticize for... a lack of credibility.

Don't misunderstand me, the tribunal CAN be wrong, especially not long ago when people were given IP to judge. However the chances of the tribunal being wrong five or six times, then Riot's staff I find to be abysmally small, especially after reviewing the reform card.

There is no different list of rules for the high rated players. There is no different list of rules for those who have bought riot points. It doesn't matter if you're the unquestionably best player in the game. You break the rules, and you will be punished.

Tribunal is a bit harsh and i can see what situation you're in. I was banned today as well, but unforunately not in your case. I was banned for mute, "refusing to communicate." In ranked to avoid any negative attitude i just mute the whole team, but i follow in team fights and i do keep a keen eye on the minimap. Whenever i win, my team wouldn't complain but when i lose i get reported for those kind of stuff.

People in LoL nowdays are too damn touchy; calling a person bad or a feeder (if in the case they are) they can just backfire it on you for negative attitude and its ridicilous. Nevertheless, Riot will never reverse a permaban and its unfornunate for you

Solution: Conitinue supporting Riot by making another account or quit. Sadly thats the only solution. This is my first time banned and i lost my gold bars and money spent on several Leg skins.

I hope you can get over this incident;

Sorry to hear, dont feel bad your just victim in Riots global scamming system :/ permaban players who invest money into their accounts. and give them stupid reasons why
