Why would it? I don't do anything to cause myself to be banned. Hypothetical problem solved.
| Soleron said: Obviously I wouldn't do any of the trolling/stupid behaviour, I'm just talking about "leaving during a game in emergencies ". I read you get permabanned after like 3 leaves in your first hundred games? I got banned for a week after two within 20. My schedule can't support that low a rate of leaving, sorry. And, exactly, your fate is in the hands of a bunch of random players. When I spend MY money or time on a game, I want the decisions to be made by an employed human being, and I want the exact circumstances under which you do to be very transparent. Riot doesn't release exact figures of leaves -> ban. |
To be honest, Soleron, I'm not unhappy at all about that. It sucks that you can't play a game you'd otherwise enjoy because of getting banned for leaving too often, but on the other hand, it would suck for the four other people on your team to have 10% of their games ruined because of (from their persepctive) some douchebag who randomly AFKs the game. If everyone did that, it would be more like (too lazy to figure out how to do the math) maybe 40% of all games getting ruined? If you factor BOTH teams, that's ten people, five on each side; assuming a 10% chance of any individual disappearing, my gut feeling is that the odds that one team would have fewer players than the other team would definitely be well over a quarter, probably a third. When such unbalanced teams make the game pretty much an exercise in futility for the underdog (unless the undermanned team has VASTLY superior players), that is a completely unacceptable rate of failure.
Again, it's too bad you can't enjoy the game because you'd get banned, but you'd be getting banned because you'd be stopping others from enjoying the game.
Permabanned for leaving in 3 in the first 100 sounds like overkill, but 10 in the first 100 doesn't. I don't know how reputable your source was; if it's true, I'd expect they are extra harsh on new accounts to crack down on abusers that spam accounts, and older accounts get more slack.

Oh, and I'm not 100% sure but I'm pretty confident Riot does review the tribunal's decision before approving a ban instead of just blindly following the recommendation. I wouldn't be surprised if they don't bother vetting the "don't ban" results though. For one thing, I did Tribunal a few times, and if I recall correctly, it's just a yes-or-no vote on whether the person deserves punishment. Yet Riot hands out all sorts of punishments, from warnings to bans to permabans, so I think I'm right here.

Oh and I'm FinalFan on NA. A while back I got together with some other VGC LoL players and made a ranked team, but we didn't really have enough people to get together for many games. You should join us! Even if you don't play ranked, it'll make a good way to keep in touch on LoL. If the team fills up, then we can start paring the list, but that's far from a problem now.
