This game's community is still extremely homophobic and sexist.

This took place in my ranked game promos to Gold 2. I'd won 6 games in a row and just gotten to my promos, all the games had flown wonderfully, good teammates and I had decent scores in most of them (the exception being 1 Kayn game.) In said Kayn game, my midlaner added me to duo. We played two games, in the third one I didn't do particularly well. I was bot with Kai'Sa and we got camped by the enemy, not that I complained, neither did Thresh. Things took a turn for the worst when my midlaner (and as of recently, premade) jokingly told Elise "KS :P" She replied with "ks yourself lmao" which I thought was really shitty of her. He immediately - for reasons which are beyond me, - apologised and pointed out he just meant kill steal. A teamfight ensued and Elise and her premade, Olaf, immediately started insulting Veigar for misplaying something, Olaf blantatly calling Veigar "gay %%%%%%." When I told them to shut up, they started to insult me, "2/8 Kai'Sa talking." Then they started saying how they'd purposely lose so, "She won't get to climb." Their remarks weren't just toxic, they were blantatly sexist. I'm not female, I'm gay. Despite all of this, I kept my cool and never flamed them back. This is what happened in the post-game lobby. Shinatobe N&GGA

: Kaisa Shinatobe N&GGA : im sure Shinatobe N&GGA : you're just a woman trash Br0KeN bU11eT left the lobby Shinatobe N&GGA : go back to your kitchen ΠΑΝΑΓ1Α left the lobby Ashryver Queen CΟVEN : Lmao Shinatobe N&GGA : this is only place that you belong

I made tickets and reported them, but this is getting out of hand. I didn't return her insults and I didn't flame her back, despite it grating my nerves that I couldn't bury someone who would talk to me like that. The very least Riot can do is inform us better when someone is punished for their behaviour so that we can feel better about upholding the alleged community standards. These two pieces of shit deserve to be permabanned.

I'm pretty sure he's used to that, no one who uses the phrase "YoU'rE jUsT a SjW" could possibly be likeable.

Course you don’t. No one likes the truth.

I play with a female every day, and it’s an EXTREMELY rare day if she gets insulted by someone for being female.

Stop trying to stir the shit pot. It’s empty.

I'm not even a girl and I kept on getting flamed by my teams for being a "braindead egirl" when I used to play enchanters alot. People will say that you should stay in the kitchen and shit and it gets really annoying. It doesn't really get to me because i'm not female but if I was It would be really shitty.

You answer your own questions, but then again, I don't expect someone who can't spell properly to be good at reading, much more rereading their own comments

Funny. You can’t disprove me so instead you latch onto anything other than a actual point.

Maybe it’s your shit personality that gets you hated. See. I can do that too

My personality is actually very loved, thank you very much. see, it doesn't work if it's not true. That aside, it's pretty obvious from your answer, asswipe.

You didn't use something personal, or indicate that someone has ever actually discriminated against you, so you use something that's legitimately completely irrelevant, proving that you are just some straight guy who doesn't know what it feels like. And again, your reading comprehension is really poor. Half the things you say contradict what I mentioned in my post. On top of that, you're also delusional lmao. "No OnE lIkEs thE TrUTh"

I’m sure it is. I’m sure it is. And again. Assuming things still XD.

Again. Assuming more shit when you know NOTHING about me.

But w/e. Keep stewing in your victim complex. I’m not gonna be replying.

No, when your complaints revolve around sexism and homophobia it IS weird for you to assume someones gender.

And sexism and homophobia isn't even the worst of it. I've had people straight up threaten my daughters in this game. At this point, it's safe to say it's just the internet being the internet and it's best if you don't let things bother you.

That said, Riot made a commitment to the community to keep things clean and they could be doing a much better job.

Admittedly, it's pretty hard for Riot to accomplish that when half the community is working against them. Look at this post's downvotes.

Being fair, that could be due to "naming and shaming" the perpetrator, which is against boards TOS, but... To be honest, I'm not sure I have enough faith in the community to assume that's the case.

You... You realize that youre not only EU, one of the most toxic (to itself) servers in the league of legends macro, but on EUNE the single most toxic server in EU?

Simply put, how dare you assume that the community at large is vile because of your encounter on one of the worst servers in the world? Further, why the heck are you trying to call the community sexist and homophobic when this is clearly general toxicity and not really targeted? Bullies use all ammo available, not just one.

"no point"? The point i made is that youre attributing guilt to the entire community for an encounter in a extremely bad server, and should be ashamed of yourself for trying to stir up drama.

What you said is no different than going to, say, downtown newyork and getting mugged... then claiming the US is awful because of the high crime rate. You say those kinds of things to deliberately create drama. Not because you have an actual point that needs making.


Also... This thread belongs in player behavior, not gameplay.

Unless if it's no longer an insta-ban, I've reported people before who told me to kms several times in one game and never got the notification.
