Hey there Trumpleminze,
I've taken some time to go through your logs and I'll admit, I’m really sorry you had to deal with that kind of behavior. I’ll take a look at the match and follow up with any players who were negative and make sure appropriate actions were taken. I’m sorry to say, but when it comes to the placement of this penalty, I don't have great news. I won’t be able to reduce this for you, but I want to take this time to provide you with context as to why this penalty has been applied and tips to prevent any future ones when faced with these types of games.
In your chat, it does look like your focus was often on other players’ mishaps when plays turned sour. I understand where you're coming from trying to be helpful and telling others what to do and coordinating your team, but sometimes our attempts to help our teammates can come across as being bossy and aggressive. Calling out others’ performances can really just detract from the match. I often try and lead my teammates with advice and instructions too, but during times of heightened emotion when our teammates are concentrating on the game, giving advice (no matter how right you feel it is) at the wrong time could have the opposite effect that we want.
In order to avoid Chat Restrictions in the future, I would encourage you to focus more on your own game play, rather than the performance of your teammates or the mistakes they make. We honestly all just want a match that is competitive and fun for everyone involved, though if other players are causing issues in your game, please do make liberal use of your mute function as sometimes it's easy to forget how powerful this simple feature is and how it can change the course of our matches when they get heated. The more time we spend calling out others on their performance and trying to instruct them, the less time we spend focusing on what we are doing in game, and how we can carry our team to victory.
I know this can feel harsh, but I’m confident you’ll be able to avoid any further penalties with the context I’ve given you here. If you need anything else, feel free to reach back out to me.
