Please give me just a moment of your time.

If you're having a bad game, or your team isn't doing too hot, please don't start trashing on your own team.

We're human we make mistakes, everyone has a bad game everyone has bad lane matchups and everyone has bad days. So please don't start tearing someone down if they mess up or ask for help or are having a bad game. There is someone else sitting on the other side of the screen who knows that they're doing bad or messing up but when you're being a blatant dick to someone to the point that the enemy team starts offering the person that you're ragging on words of encouragement, you know you're doing something shitty.

So just take a step back, chill and offer to help them or just don't say anything at all, just think about how pissed you'd be if someone called you out on your mistakes and didn't offer you any help.

Sincerely, a person who's tired of watching his team cannibalize themselves worse than the DNC.

I gave up on the community., I am one of those players that tilts really easy, so I just mute everyone when the match starts. Maybe you should too.

See I grew up as a middle child with 5 siblings so I attempted to be the voice of reason during conflicts. Sadly this has started to carry over into the game.

If they're stone walls and are just flaming then I mute, but if you resort to muting too fast then you can't communicate with them in times where it might make a difference. If they call out an mia but you have them muted, or they call out a flash timer, or they call baron or such.... I try not to resort to muting off the bat even if it's a useful tool.

LoL I agree but I think this problem only happens when a team is losing because if someone makes one mistake one person balls them out for it and its over but if multiple people make mistakes then a bug argument starts and everyone stops playing and start typing

See and sometimes that's how it happens but usually when one person starts laying into someone and points out their messups other people are more likely to jump in and agree. It's people just trying to find justification for losing but at the cost of destroying someone in the process.

Was this plea all just an excuse to use that last line? lul

I used to be a rager myself. Still kind of am but I avoid raging in chat entirely. I've done my best to type what I want to say to them and then just delete it instead of sending it. Because it gives me time to think that if I send it, it will only make things worse. It's a team game and if you can't get along with your team you'll lose.

Can we also add that some people are literally just better than you? Cause some people don't seem to ever want to admit they're getting outplayed.
