My PBE account was banned for 500 years today, whether or not anyone thinks it was justified or not doesn't matter. Just wanted to say i'm disappointed in Riots decision because I've been a very active tester and have done my share of reporting bugs across different accounts. There are definitely worse people on PBE,and i'm not the nicest person but I spent a good deal of time finding problems and helping to shed light on them. I'm glad Riot wants to clean up the beta but they shouldn't turn their backs on the people who've been here from the start that wanted the game to be as flawless as possible. You can be as friendly and kind as you want, but if you're not actually testing anything what's the point,this game/community isn't exactly cupcakes and unicorns you know,think about it.

Wait, let me get this straight... You were banned for being a dbag and YOU are disappointed in Riot for doing exactly what they are supposed to do... Surely this is an original post... Seriously though, just because you did some bug reporting doesn't entitle you to be a piece of trash on PBE. You turned YOUR Back on the summoners code, ban well deserved. Next time instead of pointing your finger at those who punish you, try pointing at where the fault really lies. Cya in a half a millenium.

You're missing the point, and for the record you sound quite arrogant insulting me blindly when you have no knowledge of whatever I did to be punished. You can think whatever you want of me, this isn't an appeal or an "oh wahh riot banned me please sympathize with me". I'm bringing attention to something that has always bothered me, the summoners code, which yes I have "agreed to" and do my best to follow,even though it's something that goes against some of my own virtues.

In your post you addressed me as a "dbag" a "piece of trash" or my actions as being that of a "piece of trash" I find that offensive,and harassment is against the summoners code, you're technically being hypocritical according to the code which you hold so dearly. Riots idea, and yours, of what is moral,just,and what constitutes being a dbag and a piece of trash are subjective, as expected. What I intend to bring awareness to is just how subjective this is, a code such as this is well to be followed in most cases, but nothing should be concrete, and there is always room for reform/correction which extends to the community's behavior as well. I disagree with a company which metaphorically holds a gun to your head with their finger on the trigger ready to fire the second you let loose, and as such I won't be coming back in 500 years (which I find distasteful as far as humor goes). I certainly don't expect anyone to miss me based on the reaction to my post, all I ask is that you think.

I upvoted you.
Don't listen to the fanboys: they do love unicorns, especially their long horns.

I find this very ironic: atm I'm just opening a ticket at Player Support to report you for verbal harassment.
Do you feel happier now, Mr Nice Guy?

Are we serious?

It's PBE y'all... who honestly cares? If you're breaking the summoner's code (whether you hit agree to it or not) you deserve a ban. PBE is no exception, except they have less tolerance for it since you can just make a new lvl30 account. Deal with the hand you've been dealt, you could have folded your cards earlier, but instead you went all in and now you have to buy in again. Good thing you were dealing with monopoly money on this account.

What virtues does the summoner's code go against of yours exactly? The only thing I glean from the summoner's code is don't ruin people's time and don't try and screw Riot Games inc. out of their property or abuse it..Am I wrong?

I don't understand what there is to think about here.. It's their game....if they want it to be played a certain way and don't want anyone to break their rules for their game then why shouldn't they be allowed to ban you? They do give you fair warning. In America if you don't want someone to use the thing you own. They legally cannot...unless they have some lawful authority to do otherwise. Since Riot Games Inc. Has copyrighted League of Legends and everything implied. Then I believe they are well within the logistics of the law. A simple comparison. You don't play a sport that has rules, break a rule, get booted from that game then get uppity about it. That's just......childish. So I implore you to think, sir. There isn't reform necessary when you're using someone else's things. You play by their rules. It's theirs...Don't come borrow my car then wreck it. That's my rules. Do you need that rule reformed because you like to drive recklessly?

TL;DR Stop being so entitled and complaining about something you really shouldn't be. It's a FREE account where you get everything to help Riot out so their game works. Just because you did them a solid doesn't mean that now since you are consistently violating their rules you are entitled to special treatment. It doesn't say in the Summoner's Code that "oh by the way if you help us on the PBE you have special immunity".

You break the summoners code, that you agreed to, you deserve a ban, it's really that simple.
And to be banned for 500 years, not just a 24 hour, or a week ban, but a 500 year ban, says you are not new to this.
If you are toxic to the community, good riddance, you play fair, you play as a team, and you have fun, if you have a bad player, point them in the right direction.

HOW IS IT THAT HARD FOR YOU TO ACCEPT.
