Certain emotes on the boards have negative connotations. The use of [zombie-brand-facepalm] comes to mind because instead of being a "Oh, I made a mistake Facepalm" it's turned into a "They're so stupid they don't see my poorly argued point" kind of emote.
Can this change? Or be removed all out? It doesn't promote any kind of actual discussion other than "Why are you so stupid" kind of conversations.

We should probably have asked him if he minded us posting more of the stickers like this as responses. He might not get our sense of humor, I hope we don't offend him.
(I get what ya mean though op, I see it a lot too. I try not to let it bug me, sometimes I even embrace it cuz they're mostly just harmless fun even if one or two came with some negative connotations.)
doiminat0r36003 votesI don't mind it much but when Riot says they're working on ending toxicity but one of the most toxic places is right under their noses. The boards are the cruelest generally. Circlejerking about things that have obvious counterplay until riot changes them for the worst. Then they proceed to downvote and harass anyone with a different viewpoint than them.
In context, this perticular sticker has the most negative connotations generally. It's never used as I would have imagined.
Deep Terror Nami1 votesI don't see enough negativity with that sticker to justify removing it; a little passive-aggressive at the absolute worst maybe.
