  1. Stfu
  2. Muted
  3. ty

If we could have buttons for the above 3 phrases which can be used on the fly, like pings, that would be lovely. If we could disable all chat except for the above 3 phrases it would enhance the quality of all ranked games drastically.

Cheers and pls upvote for awareness. Bye!

I think some of them have useful things to tell you as well like Uninstall if you are not willing to work together in a team game.

What's the point of saying to someone muted?

dakota saturn1 votes

So they stop wasting time trash talking in chat.

This will never happen

If they think you can't hear them saying "LAWL NOOB OMG THIS (insert whatever champ you are)", they won't do it anymore.

It works, trust me.

Nope, they will just find another target

Nah, simple minded trash talkers usually hone in on one person. They are not that persistent.

Say that to 90% of the trash talkers I meet in my games

Well in that case, actually mute them so they don't tilt you. In most games I play, people latch onto one person and treat them horribly all game and call out all their mistakes rather than screaming at everyone. The worst thing you can do is engage them back or talk to them, or worst of all, trash talk them back.

Usually the people that say these things and go after everyone on the team are awful players regardless who will feed no matter what. Thats usually why they're so angry - they're awful and are trying to deflect the attention off their own bad plays to someone else.

Sometimes you can carry them, sometimes you can't. Don't try to reason with them, don't try to talk to them. At the first sign of them being dickish (i.e. spamming the "?" ping after a bad play, spamming 'why???' in chat, etc.), simply say 'muted' and move on, and usually these ppl will stop. If not, then you probably need to go up a few divisions where you can't behave that way and maintain your MMR.

But hey, people prob won't read this or will downvote it anyway. Who cares.
