still waiting for the day when i can give orders

Very Hard Engage··1 votes·421 views

and people listen to them or at least try them out.

i mean, i get it, "you dont like being told what to do" and thats fine, but when you have no plan at all, what is it exactly you are trying to do?

i get it, im only 1/0/0 or maybe im 3/4/6 fine, im not snowballing so i clearly dont know anything, but dont you think you should at least have a goal in mind? or you should tell me what it is you want to do, or what we should be doing instead of staying silent and ignoring everyone.

im not blaming you, im just trying to win the match, and i think it would be a good idea for my morg/vayne to come dragon with me after we get a double kill bot lane, i pinged it. but it just wasn't enough enough for you.

id like it if our darius top would come to the 4v5 thats hovering in mid lane, creeping towards our tower. but i guess you want to freeze farm top thats OK too.... (bare ping darius, ask for assistance mid, doesn't come)

i always feel let down when 1 or more people dont even try to communicate. they're just playing for lane or for personal score. and it just feels like a wasted effort on my part.

"when i can give orders"

perhaps you should give suggestions. Seeing as giving an order means you presume to have some sort of control over them. If you say maybe we should go to drag, they're a hell of a lot more likely to go than if you tell them to go to drag

thats the thing tho, since im not chat restricted, permanently muted, and still proactively typing in chat, it means by default, the things i say are neither offensive, nor rude. (never have been in 3 years)

i do straight up say "darius come mid please" "darius please we need you 5v5" those are my "orders"

and then they dont come. im talking about their actions, not mine.

im talking about general responsiveness. here the general public goes again putting words in my mouth that i have to be the bad guy for asking you to do something.

my "orders" are predominately with pings. occasionally its a plan like drag then baron, or everyone come mid, or take this path ping ping ping

but ofc, the people of league, ignore me. to do whatever it is they want to, irregardless of the team

and what it all boils down to is people ignore pings, ignore chat outright, say nothing, ask for nothing, dont communicate at all. on a team based game

i didn't say you were rude or offensive, you don't need to defend yourself against that. I said that if you're giving orders, people are less likely to listen. I'm not putting words in your mouth, i'm taking them directly from what you said. Don't use the word orders when you mean suggestions, and you wouldn't have this problem. If you say you want to give orders, I am going to respond to you wanting to give orders, not to you wanting your teammates to listen to pings/suggestions.

but i do want to give them orders, because my experience tells me what they're doing is outright wrong for the team and if were going to win this game he needs to do X -> Y -> Z, no BS, no rudeness, i want to convey to him he needs to perform this action, and we will win. or at least have a chance at winning.

Well that's an issue for you, not them. They aren't going to listen. You have no power over anyone on here. You can want it all you like, but it's not going to happen in normal games. Make a ranked team, then you can at least have some say in what's going on. Otherwise they're going to make their own decisions.

so in summary -> loss attributed to poor team communication, and general lack of effort, not because the enemy team was better or deserved to win.

seems fair.

They ignore people.

Fixed* they do it anyway regardless of how polite i am. they could at least tell me what they wanted to do so i could follow them. but they just dont communicate at all.

You didn't fixed it,you just made it worse as your thread. I don't know how you approaching your fellow teammates buy mine mostly listen
