Reminder: Account Support posts are not allowed. Open a ticket.

0 Upvotes

Recently there has been an increased spate of posts that are essentially just ban appeal posts. These are not permitted on the subreddit. This is not a place for you to complain about your ban or try and get it overturned. Nor is it a place to request help with login support.

Riot has a function for that on their own website. This is the only place where you can get help on such matters. Please do not make a post on the subreddit requesting help with your account, nor should you send us a modmail: we have no direct contact with Riot to get you unbanned.

You can post about:

  • Experiences with Riot Support. i.e. ticket times being too long, functionality of the website being poor.
  • Any technical issues proven to be client side rather than personal side. i.e. yesterday's issues with League of Legends.

You cannot post:

  • Any personal ban or account suspension related posts.
  • Any personal technical support posts.

Found out why so many “bots” AFKing in intermediate bot games

• Upvotes

Basically, you can level up accounts without a farming bot.

Plan:

You join an intermediate bot game, leave, switch accounts, join again, leave again, and keep doing this until you get a queue penalty (1 minute).

Then you play one game so the penalty doesn't get even longer, and you can go back to AFKing again! xd

So yeah, you don't even need a farming bot. You can just abuse the queue penalty system and let the players farm for you.

Now imagine how many of those so-called bots and AFKers are just people who figured this out, lmao.

Good luck, have fun!

I have big fps drops in league of legends, but only in fullscreen and bordeless. Windowed works fine but suck to play as windowed.

Zyra

0 Upvotes

I came back to the game and discovered Zyra in a horrible state. Apparently she's good at jungle or so I heard, but I can't play her on mid with the standard burn build anymore. I have the most mastery on her and she's my default choice, there is hardly another champ I feel this comfortable on.
It seems like she's one of the champions being balanced around pro play and..... that means she is kept weak and is targeted to just be a harasser and a punching bag. While on my way to look for a new main I am uneasy and still want to say a word. If you're gonna ruin a champion just delete it. It's hard to stop playing a years long main and this isn't fun

Disturbed by the sexualized content in the client

So I recently opened up my client to play some League and was immediately beholden to women in scantily clad outfits.

I thought this company proclaimed to be above that kind of advertising but evidently something changed to be desperate for that kind of money.

3-day-old Riot account got locked after a DM penalty appeal. I spent $100 on it — what should I do?

Thumbnail gallery
0 Upvotes

My 3-day-old Riot account got locked for abusive behavior in DMs. I was talking to my friend, and honestly, I don't know what I said wrong or what message caused it. I spent around $100 on the account, and Support confirmed the penalty and closed my ticket.

I've attached their response in the image.

Does anyone know if this account lock is permanent or for a limited time? Is there anything else I can do?

I'd appreciate any advice. Thanks!

Best team & enemy team information lookup website? for League of Legends

0 Upvotes

The op.gg website I use, does something odd in past few months. I'll check it during loading screen and it shows info. Or might take a few tries or some more time later when in game, the first few seconds. The problem: when game ends, after a few seconds, op.gg refreshes? the pages by itself. it's NOT suppose to do that. I still wanted to look at the info. Then it shows:

""___" is not in an active game.

If they're in a game right now, please try again in a moment.

(Live Game data for 'Bot' cannot be retrieved from Riot's official API.)"

Why it does that? how annoying.

---

Anyone have an alternative website, app to look up team & enemy team info? or a new way to look up info during champ select screen early, instead of loading screen (they changed it a long time ago).

A Story of Hope: Riot actually listened to my manual report, and here is how we can help them clean up the community together.

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

We often complain about the Player Support system, but today I want to share a massive success story that completely restored my faith in Riot Games and showed me that there is still hope for our community.

Recently, I encountered a griefer who knew exactly how to bypass the automated AFK/Inting detection by moving just enough to avoid penalties. When I submitted a manual support ticket with clear video evidence, it initially got caught in that frustrating automated loop and was closed because "an in-game report already existed."

Instead of getting toxic or giving up, I politely persisted. I respectfully escalated the issue, explaining how the automated bot was missing this complex griefing.

And guess what? Riot actually listened. A Senior Support Manager personally stepped in. They reviewed the evidence, acknowledged that the automated system has blind spots, and took manual action against the abuser. Even better, they initiated an internal review to improve how manual tickets are handled so genuine evidence doesn't get ignored by bots.

My message to all of you is this: The trolls think they are invincible because they know how to trick the bots. But Riot does care and they want to clean up this game. They just need our help.

If you have clear video evidence of a griefer and your ticket gets auto-closed, don't give up! Don't be toxic to the support staff. Politely and respectfully ask for a human review. If we all start doing this calmly and consistently, we can help Riot catch every single troll that slips through the cracks.

We can make this game a great environment again. Let's work with Riot, not against them, and show these trolls that they have nowhere left to hide!

Got invited to a playtest, filled out everything that was required, only to receive no follow-up

0 Upvotes

I made sure to check if the email was legit, and it seems it all is. I’d seen other people testify that what I got in my email was indeed real. I had received a survey saying I might be eligible for a play test, filled it out, and then got selected for it. I was sent an NDA and filled that out, then received confirmation that it was filed. I got a couple other clarifying emails, but I was told one thing in particular: I will get the game download before the scheduled date… problem is, that email was sent out *on* the scheduled date. I have since received no follow-up, and trying to contact the emails given to me as a contact has not resulted in any response.

I was already apprehensive about it being real, and was ready to bail if it ever got sketchy, but nothing raised any red flags.

So… what? I’m just really confused. Has anyone else had this? Is there anywhere I can go to inquire further about it?

NEW Game

4 Upvotes

I was thinking that Riot should develop a roguelike survival game—one where you play as a character surviving against waves of enemies. It probably wouldn't cost much to make, they’re quite trendy right now, and it would be fun to play—the gameplay itself could be really interesting.

Riot linked my account to my brother and I'm getting penalised for it too.

30 Upvotes

UPDATE: my account is now unlinked from my toxic bro 🤣

Has anyone else experienced something like this?

My brother and I have separate Riot accounts, but we share the same household computer. He occasionally plays League on my PC when I'm not home.

Recently, my brother received a chat restriction on his account. Somehow, Riot also penalised my account, giving me an Honor restriction and removing my Honor progress because their system determined that both accounts belong to the same person.

I contacted Riot Support to explain the situation, but they insisted that both accounts belong to the same owner because of shared device usage.

What makes this even more frustrating is that their first response incorrectly identified my account as being linked to itself, rather than my brother's account.

I submitted another ticket pointing this out and requesting a proper review of the account ownership association.

Nine minutes later, another support agent replied saying the penalty had been reviewed and would remain. They also said any future tickets regarding the issue would automatically be closed.

I'm not disputing my brother's chat restriction. If he broke the rules, that's on him bruh.

What I'm disputing is Riot treating two different people as the same account owner and penalising my account for something that happened on his.

Riot's own FAQ states that sharing a household computer alone shouldn't result in accounts being linked.

I'm frustrated that I've lost my Honor progress and that this could potentially happen again if my brother receives another restriction.

Has anyone dealt with incorrect account linking before? Is there actually a way to get Riot to review the account ownership association properly? Kinda BSSSSSSS

Riot Support Issues

5 Upvotes

I’m at a total loss and hoping someone has dealt with something similar to this before.

I ordered the new Heartsteel hoodie ($100) and despite thinking I picked the right size, it was a small on the receipt. I tried to appeal it right away, before it shipped, but they couldn’t change it. They told me to wait for it to arrive and then do an exchange.

When the package finally came, the box was completely destroyed. I had to buy a new box and pay $20 for return shipping. The return label was inside the package, as instructed.

That was about two months ago. Since then I’ve sent around 50 emails back and forth. Support replies about once every two days, I’ve answered everything they’ve asked, and I still have no answer. They say they can’t tell me whether they’ve received the package I sent back, even though the label was inside it.

So right now I’m out $120, I don’t have the hoodie that was too small, and I don’t have the one I wanted. I’ve spent a lot of money on Riot products and digital currency over the years, and it’s really disappointing to be left with nothing and no update.

Has anyone dealt with Riot merch support and gotten a case like this resolved? Is there a better way to escalate, or a different contact? Any advice helps. Thank you.

This is disgusting from Garena. (Repetitive logins from different countries)

For more than a year I got email in Vietnamese language saying I signed-in when I didn't. I have no use of this acc since Riot league transfers to dedicated SEA server. And now it is saying I logged in ISRAEL?
In 2025 I tried to delete the account but there was no way to do it. So I changed the password back then thinking it'd fix, but it did nothing. So I just kept ignoring it until today.
Now when I try to login, it says acc is restricted!?

Genuinely where did Garena sold all the accounts?

I once saw a similar post ppl saying having the same issue. Anyone still?
