What if muting was disabled

I think MUTE is anti teamwork and maybe not too good for the PVP mode

They shouldn't say that stuff any more than you should mute of course. And even if in a hypothetical someone said something toxic, that doesn't give the otherp eople a grenelight to shut down and be toxicablel themselves

I meant chat-heavy online games. Even OW doesn't involves that many toxicity compared to League.

Overwatch is much more chat heavy than solo queue league.

It can hurt it, yes, but it's a necessary evil to deal with

Not if it doesn't have a pro but only a con

The pro is you can ignore spammers and assholes. If all someone is doing is macro-spamming chat, that blocks communication far more than muting them would.

Well duh, but they shouldnt spam in the first place and if you are thinking that they are spammer that is disrespect so gotta focus on play not your peers. Muting is bad and spam is bad, especially if it is real. But spam + mute is even worse. You should try to do the good thing and trust them as well. of coursse.

DrCyanide3 votes

Muting for no reason is bad. Muting someone who's making it harder to focus on the game is good.

That having to put up with the bullshit some people do causes me to play worse. This is LEAGUE OF LEGENDS, a game infamous known for its toxicity. The mute button was a saving grace.

Well, buddy, you're level 17. You have yet to play ranked, and you haven't experienced all this shit yet. The fact of the matter is that no one is agreeing with you. Mutting is a good way to help a lot of people play better because they don't have to deal with the constant noise of the question mark ping, and the toxic ass Yasuo.

You don't know if I am new or a smurf so i'm going to interpret that as an adhom and assume you have no interest in having a mature and adultish discussion. If you are ready to apologize, convince me that you're ready to try and do better come back and try again.

I don't care if you're smurfing. My point still stands, I've been here since season 1 and I've had to put up with a lot of shit from idiots over the years, so no matter how old at this game you claim to be, chances are Ive been here longer, now muting is fine the way it is. People have the option to mute a certain player whos only way of communication is spam pinging and other annoying forms of spam and bullshit. There are still 3 other players on the team that he can listen to, who he can communicate with. Not everyone mutes all the players in the game, people have a right to do that as well. Also, how do you know they even muted, I have a friend who never must but just doesn't say anything, doesn't ping. That's not being anti-social and noncommunicable, that's his prerogative, and he can just listen, toxicity spouts from wanting to shot call.

Most of those shot callers are people who are wanting to carry and in my experience, a lot of the time the shot callers are toxic and end up feeding and then get banned, people usually go down with them if they don't mute because they get into a fight. And now the person who could've muted is now banned, and the toxic idiot just gets away. Muting actually saves accounts from getting to worked up. Now I know you're apparently god and don't get tilted which is fine, but not everyone is like you, everyone is different, a lot of people who get tilted by people saying shit and spam pinging.

Woah defensive. Excuse for not being able to control yourself when people talk. And not many downvotes for a community with so many millions of active players. Perhaps I am just getting people with your problem becausse I mentioned mute in the topic ? Surely the vast majority of the playerbase is too good to lose their composure over wordss...

Because muting allows you to block assholes and people who have nothing better to do than spam or flame in the chat. I'd rather have the option to press a button and not have to listen to flame or spam than just sit there lowering my braincells by having some guy flame me in chat. There's a difference between muting and muting all, you can still communicate with other teamates who have something better to contribute, because if someone is flaming me odds are they wont be talking with me to come up with a great plan on how to steal baron and time soon, and you can easily communicate by pinging. And mute all isn't a bad thing either, if I'm on a very bad lose streak and getting very tilted, I'd rather mute people before they start flaming and prevent me from tilting even more.

Nonsense, you don't lose braincells when people talk to you. You should never tilt anyway, muting is just an excuse to be easily tiltable for you and it isn't doing you or your winrate any good. It also isn't doing your team any good when you decide to stoop under communication

fire2631 votes

But when the communication they I receive is just "you suck ass go kys" I'm not going to bother reading that and just sitting there. If they're flaming, they're not just going to suddenly stop and try and coordinate plans with me. I'm not muting nontoxic people that actually want to try and win, they can easily still talk to me, I'm just muting people that do nothing but try and flame. It's doing myself good by not letting me get tilted and it's doing my team good as to maybe make the player flaming shut up and start playing instead of wasting his time and effort typing me an essay on how I should uninstall league.

Deliberate Inter1 votes

You're wrong, i've seen people spam vulgarities in between calling out summoner spell cooldowns and successfully orchastrating ganks / informing the team by text chat. You should really try a thicker skin and doing your earnest best to work with the team and not just shut down and be as bad or worsse than the guy you have a problem with...

hrooza dota 1 votes

heres some steps to disable others from muting you in general : 1- dont flame. 2- dont spam nonsense. 3- dont use mia unless you want to use it the way it meant to be 4- just dont ping spam in general 2~3 is enough to say what you want to say.

boom work 99,99% of the time with me.

Deliberate Inter1 votes

Uh, not a problem. The issue is when my teammates mute each other, nobod yever mutes mi.

hrooza dota 1 votes

then be the smart one and do shot calling, link your team together.

Deliberate Inter1 votes

That goes without saying still, mute shouldn't be a thing and the toxic attiude that comes with pressing the mutebutton leads one t ogive up make ezxucisngs and try less than their bes,t i ti s literally subpar tbh

hrooza dota 1 votes

muting is not toxic its a way to stop flamers who only try to start a flame war or tilt players

humans can tilt and will tilt if someone is spamming them 20 mins straight (and the sound of those pings is so fucking annoying when spamed) if you cant understand that and respect the mute option then sorry to say this but you are a bad team player your self

Deliberate Inter1 votes

If you are prone to tilting over words you should change and be better than that, not hide behind a toxic mute button that is literally anti communication. And let's be honest, if you can't even handle your own emotions why are you trying to call YOUR OWN TEAMMATE toxic? You might be projecting and you wouldn't even know it. WE must always be kind and earnest.

hrooza dota 1 votes

see thats why you cant be a team player, you cant understand humans are different and think others should change to be you. and you start labeling my argument on me even tho i rarely mute because i understand tilt.

also lets be honest if you someone flame then he is not doing teamwork and should be muted since he will only start a flame war with somebody toxic players exist and im not projecting, and players are not always kind and earnest they will flame they will be toxic with each other and so some will be muted by others.

you can accept that or can keep thinking that humans who mute are toxic because they want to be more focused then waste time reading flames or worst , typing back

and btw communication is better by pings then by chat, its useless to chat as pings can cover everything

Deliberate Inter1 votes

You're wrong, I can and am a team player. I don't go saying stuff like this during a game, that would be off topic , but the fact of the matter is is that anyone who can't even be tilt proof should change for the better.

hrooza dota 1 votes

(everyone should change i dont care if they cant change )....

thats your last part and thats why you are not a fully team player. you can be a team player in certain cases only.

also i never claimed you are flaming i said flamers exist and should be muted or else they start a tilt or a flame war both of which harm the full team. like it or not mute will stay as long as flamers staying

There's a reason every challenger korean support types every summoner spell, mobility cooldown and engage, even in the middle of a teamfight or between skillshots. ;)

hrooza dota 1 votes

they dont type. they ping. you click tap you ping enemy summoners or R you can also ask for assistance or click danger or missing or focus targeting with pings

also you are not a challenger nor your team mates are you need to know your team limits and know how to use it.and not try to mimic better players

Deliberate Inter1 votes

You're wrong, they actually type the cooldowns and timestamps when they will come back up. And you have no clue where i've played or when.

hrooza dota 1 votes

you're wrong, because ping show time stamps and is faster and more effective

lel i have all the clue i need from op.gg, you are new. and thats it you can claim you are challenger but none will believe you.

i can claim im silver and everyone will believe me because its shown in my op.gg

Deliberate Inter1 votes

Sounds like you never played in Korea or watched a high elo korean stream. Just because low elo players don't want to type cooldowns doesn't mean that they shouldn't. ;)
