For the most part, Riot tends to turn a blind eye to people account sharing in the same way that Blizzard tends to do. However, they don't want people explicitly encouraging it. That means that if people share accounts, it's okay if they don't make a big fuss about it. What Regi was doing probably urked someone in Riot CS because he was using someone else's account in a very public manner. Streaming the use of someone else's account and having lots of people see it is generally not approved of. (I think that's why Tech9 got banned?)
TL;DR
If you share accounts, don't stream it in front of thousands of people and make a news post about it.

How dumb is that.... We all know that it's in their EULA not to have more than one account but everyone and their mom has a smurf. Why not ban HS and jiji too then, or call them out instead of saying on stream "we tend to close an eye on that".

Apparently he didn't use his own accounts, so Riot banned him without notice. And they banned the account he was helping, too I believe.

I still agree; the Reds must've seen or head about TSM's events and should have warned him. At the very least I think they could've just told him to stop doing what he was on stream before banning him.
Oh well, what's done is done. It's a good thing he wasn't permabanned.. that would truly suck.

He has to suffor now.
I like how Riot employees that watch a stream just randomly decide to ban the streamers account if they dont like what they see.
