Alright, I see, this is a misunderstanding. Let me clarify again. I did not say Riot banned the bottom 1%. I said Riot banned 1% of players and that that was a lot.

"Greetings Summoner,

Your League of Legends account has been suspended for violations to the Summoner’s Code. This action follows the conclusion of an audit performed by Riot staff. During this audit we found that your account was among the bottom 0.8% of toxic players within the League of Legends Community.

Did you actually read the thread? "Among the bottom 0.8% of toxic players" is not the same thing as 1%, DUCY?

To quote the red:

6) It just so happens that of the accounts we chose, they happened to fall in the worse 0.8% or 0.2% 'buckets' of the population. That does not mean we just banned everyone in those buckets.

Okay I think you're fundamentally misunderstanding how %s work. Let's say you have numbers 1-100, you can choose a number <= 10 and NOT choose 10 numbers.

So in this case, just because they banned SOME players in the bottom 0.8% bucket, does not mean they banned .8% of the players.
