Have you tried to contact Riot player support? Rioters occasionally reply here too so make sure to include your riot id

Just annoying because I was having a nice game. Got taken out of the game. Got perma banned and to then have upset premades because they thought I rq or afkd

Yeah I've put in a ticket. I have a feeling it will get fixed but I'm put off riot now.i have no idea how the 2015 client has been better than anything they do now. The fact I have to wait on them for their mistakes seriously puts me off them. Their not far of EA ubisoft levels as of recent

u/Original-Product-796 avatar

add the ticket id or your riot id too here in the post (edit it or create a new comment) because, as i said , sometimes they take a look at this subreddit too

Are you the type of person to lose their minds when your favorite item in the store is not stocked for a while? Thats the same thing here. Sometimes shit happens. Just send a ticket and wait a few days for a response lol.

u/Synthoxial avatar

Item in store not stocked = unjust permanent loss of belongings

lol

u/Forrest02 avatar

Ehh I coulda used a better analogy sure, but its amazing what happens when one is patient for a few days tops on an issue. If he is innocent they will reverse it.

No. Not when it's a billion dollar company with thousands of staff across the world. The old 2015 client wasn't as half as bad as the current one. That's just factually. This issue is entirely on them and they deserve to be called out on it.

u/RobinZhang140536 avatar

I think you need to understand that those thousands of staff need to accommodate a much larger player base. Just give it some time and play on a separate account for now.

Shit happens when it comes to false positives. If your case truly was one, it will be reverted in a few days tops. Relax and just wait. Not everything is perfect in terms of software, and it never will be.

The client that took 4 minutes to put you into a game if you crashed? Okay buddy.

Hello there,

You have been banned for violating 1 or more user rules. If the VAN code is 152, it means you are also HWID banned and logging into any other account for 4 months will get it permanently suspended. If you believe you are false banned, your best chance is submitting a ticket.

Hope clears it!

Yea I have the same issue, I hop on, log off, get on and it's banned for section 7 when I never cheated. If I cheated I would be hwid banned but I'm not so I found it strange

Did you buy the account? If you did and the account was botted to level 30. Then that falls under section 7

u/Snowelfmaidenx avatar

No I was in a Aram and got a vanguard error. A pop popped up saying I need vanguard open and need to restart. Which makes no sense because I had vanguard and I couldn't be in the Aram without it

I had the same issue. Vanguard will randomly shut off like once a day. Fastest way to turn it back on is to search for services in the search bar. From there find vgc. That's vanguard. You can stop and start it by right clicking.
