LoL just isn't fun anymore.

Story time! So I started playing this game around June of this year, and it was awesome. Choose from an array of awesome champions and play not for kills but an objective that requires a lot of strategy. But there's nothing wrong with the game. It's the community. I don't get why people get so mad over a game. Just because you're good at it doesn't mean I have to be. And of course I'm not challenger tier top 200 and stuff and neither are you, and yet you act like you'll lose your life savings if you don't win every exchange, don't smite at the right time, or even if you accidentally die two or three times in the laning phase. For example, me and two of my friends were invading the enemy's red buff because I was jungling as Vayne(just a meta-breaking experiment) and we pulled the monster over the wall and started damaging it. I meant to smite the monster as last hit but hit it too early and my friend got the buff because he was still trying to attack the monster. Then they both gave ME crap for not getting the buff, saying that I sucked and that Im so dumb because I don't know that you need to smite last to receive the buff (Is that true?). So I fell behind and the one without the buff who was kind of feeding mid kept putting me down telling me never to play vayne again because I couldn't use her at all. And then he kept blaming me for dying to a fed Kat when she was at 500 AP and I barely scratched 150 AD after falling behind without any buffs. We lost and my friend kept blaming me for it just because I wouldnt land any condemns and because I was "feeding" the other team. I really don't like him now. The end. The thing I really don't get is how even my own friends will rage at me just because I 'm breaking meta and fall behind to their own fault. They cant expect me to be as good as them but just like most of the LoL community they wont get that. And it makes the game all the more worse to play. (by the way, I'm lvl 23 and both my friends are lvl 30 at silver IV, so I'm not too much less experienced than they are). But to all those people who feel the same way, I feel you, and if there was any way to make this community a better place, I would instantly take chance. Spread the message. Don't whine about the lol community being a horrible place. Im just trying to show it from the point of view of the people who are always harrassed just because they're bad at this game. Be the person who puts yourself in the bad players shoes and see that they're probably trying. See that the game is not their whole life but they just want to have fun, and with such a mean community theyre not getting anything out of it and neither are you when you're raging at them. Please.

MAKE THE COMMUNITY A BETTER PLACE. #COMMUNITYCLEANUP PS if you read this all that's awesome.

This game sucks, it's a watered down laggy clusterfuck of a shit.

People are assholes. They're more likely to show it when it's anonymous and they think/know there are no repercussions. If the community sucks, your best bet is (if you can't ignore them) to leave the online multiplayer community. This is why I spend more time in solo campaign games; nobody fucks with you there.

A. In game, hit Tab, brings up the score screen, on the right are bubbles you can click to mute people, it's your best friend.

B. You need better friends if they are that bad.

Not everyone is horrible, but a lot of people take this game way too seriously and it hurts everyone involved.

A. Thanks that's probably the best idea. B. Yea the one going mid is really competitive about the game because he doesn't have anything else going for him. He just thinks its funny to troll and autolock when people already choose lanes, and I probably won't ever play with him again. I actually do better without him playing with me.

Well he should look into something outside of League to help him have fun if this is so much to him. Don't get me wrong, this game is loads of fun when it's going good. A great game can't be beat. But due to skill levels, tempers and levels of toxicity, great games are hard to come by some days.

Finding a good group of people to play with, those willing to help you grow as a player, are worth seeking out for help. They will give you a truly wonderful experience, it may not always be fun, especially when you have to learn to suck it up in some bad games, but it will be better.

Im new here too (level 24 ) and I haven't seen a community more toxic than this. No one will try to help you if you ask for advice. I get reported every time I jungle, and i promise I specify I cannot jungle, but I am still forced to when everyone wants to play their own roles. I really never want to play jungle again because I believe they get shit on the most, everyone expects ganks and dragons and everything from the jungler. If they are losing in anyway they will automatically blame the jungler. I really don't like this community at all, and I have barely been playing for about 4 or 5 months. But I've come not to expect generosity from anyone here because they are likely 13 years old and they also f*ked your mum.

Yea I see where youre coming from either everyone is unfriendlyand unhelpful or they just troll and ruin the game for everyone else and dont even try to make it discreet that theyre messing up the game. I think you should try to calm them down and apologize, because thats the best way to stop them from getting angrier. Even just make up excuses, because if everyone can act that way just show youre not trying to make them mad.

Get some friends to play. A full team of 5 friends + all chat turned off = no toxicity, and you can joke around with your friends without any negativity from other players.

But thats the problem, its that my friends still hate on me when I mess up, and none of my other nicer friends dont play the game, which kinda sucks.

Mute is your best option, sometimes I mute all in the start of game too, just because I don't feel to chat.
