People are not even afraid to troll in this game..

Cause they know as long as they dont say anything mean in chat, they are save from any consequences and if they manage to make someone rage, they can report him and this person will be more likely to get punished than they are.

Trolls can only win in LoL and they know it!

This is not true. There was a thread a month or so ago about a guy complaining he got banned and didn't do anything wrong or say anything bad in chat. Riot responded saying they reviewed the video and saw him playing Tahm Kench and contsantly swallowed his teammates and throwing them into the enemy and leaving because they didnt' do what he wanted and he was angry with them. Riot upheld the ban, and in a tactful way told him to fuck off.

Lesson being, Your actions matter just as much as your chat log does

well, i for one have stopped reporting except in the worse cases.... i let riot and the community have the game it wants, it dosent bother me when people express their anger in low ways, i have dealt with much worse in my life, some poor soul sending insults my way does nothing to me....

the problem i mainly have is riot letting people constantly violate their own TOS, its riot's fault, their responsibility, and they are failing because it makes them more money to let people get away with stuff for a while then ban them and make them make another account and buy the skins all over again...

Ive never trolled or fed and yet i got perma banned for getting mad at people doing these things. They just reported me after the game they troll since they said nothing in chat while I look like a rager and the automated report system cant tell the difference.

Troll or not, you are creating a toxic feel to a game. And do you consider off-meta picks trolls? Also some people just want to try things out and have fun.

Tocosrevenge6 votes

THIS IS SUCH A BS COMMENT. If someone is trolling they know they are trolling and if they get flamed they deserve it, end of story. Why do you think hes raging? Because the troll CREATED A TOXIC FEEL TO THE GAME for the OP. So what now???? Really tell me your logic. Because OP is 100% right. Why is it that the troll can say his feelings are hurt because someone raged at him and ruined the game, and Riot will ban the Rager; but the rager cant do anything because "i wasn't trolling I was just trying to have some fun" even though the troll ruined the game equally if not more than the rager did for him?? OP is right no question. Riot favours the trolls and is over sensitive towards ragers. Guess what... its a video game.... on the internet..... people rage. The toxicity in league is not near as bad as most games, and most games don't ban players.

LF Annie3 votes

why are you worried about what another player is doing enough to rage at him if he hasn't said anything? just stfu and play your char. people blame people trolling, but alot of "trolls that say nothing" are just people having shit games and you're making it worse.

Tocosrevenge4 votes

in a 5v5 TEAM GAME I am worried about what the other player on my team is doing. Is that not what a team is?? Oh wait this is league its actually a solo game I forgot.

LF Annie3 votes

its a solo game where you coordinate with what your solo teamates decide to do. there is no voice chat, you have pings for real-time communication, typing at all, is taking time you could be doing SOMETHING constructive vs typing filth that does NOTHING to win you the game.

so yea, stfu and play your char.

im sorry, i thought most people played what was called soloQ not team Q.

BioticBrony2 votes

This is why league needs a better way to communicate in-game without typing. Smite has their vgs (Voice guided System) which makes communicating ten times easier.

Potato Doc2 votes

Except the VGS makes me want to die every time its used, its worse then lux's laugh.

You say ten times easier to communicate, I agree its ten times easier to communicate to your allies that you want them to kill you

Thank the league they will never implement a preset auto voice command system.

BioticBrony3 votes

I wasn't saying league should use the vgs, I was just saying they should implement a better system then just pinging.

Potato Doc1 votes

The ping system is actually as effective as it is simple. The higher in elo you go the more effective you see team mates using it

ZGM Dazzling1 votes

Well at keast better than vgs.

VGS is retarded and easily spamable, easily confused, and hard to get your point across

BioticBrony1 votes

Wait. So saying things like gank middle lane, enemy missing left or retreat right lane makes it hard to get your point across? While I do agree it is spammable, there is a flood protection that stops it.

Also while it is hard to pick up, it does make communication easier. And besides your points also describe the ping system except for the retarded part. And like the other dude said, it gets better at higher elo.

ZGM Dazzling1 votes

you dont need to play with sound and the ping system still works.

VGS not as much

BioticBrony1 votes

Just like the ping system you can read vgs commands in chat but the vgs commands are more specific.

ZGM Dazzling2 votes

No hes talking about people feeding, not trying, instaloking a roll thats already been picked. Going duo mid because they called "mid only" as last pick.

NOT the soraka top whos 0/10/0

LF Annie1 votes

no, he's crying about being perma'd because he rages in chat, instead of not typing filth that does nothing to win him the game.

ZGM Dazzling1 votes

i got permad and I know what hes talking about lol.

And thats not it

LF Annie1 votes

no, that's exactly what he's talking about. thhere are systems in place that dont involve using phrases or statements that cause someone to be perma'd.

refusing to see other options doesn't mean: they don't exist.

if you sit quietly through the game, mute people that are verbally toxic, and report people at the end of the game, you would never be perma'd and a good portion of the people you report, that, based off every peice of information which riot has, will be dealt with based on the severity and frequency of their actions.

**bottom line, you don't get perma'd for being upset, you get perma'd for taking it out on others using riots platform. ** riot doesnt care about the cause, just the effect.

my suggestion, get a stress ball.

i can blame the guy that rages just as much as thhe guy that is using bad build's.

any form of harrassing someone for whatever reason, is bad behavior,

two wrongs don't make a right children.

LF Annie1 votes

if you cant figure out where the mute button is, i can show you.

there is no good circumstance, no matter what someone else is doing, to resort to being toxic yourself.

you gotta learn to be the bigger man, stfu, and quietly report like a respectable EULA abiding player.

stop being the guy that looks like the idiot that cant control your temper, because you haven't stated any VALID reason why people should not use the available options without resorting to toxicity themselves.

LF Annie1 votes

you can speak your mind without being toxic. people have the right to speak your mind, in a civil, non-toxic manner.

think of congress, do they spew filth at each other to get their point across? i very much doubt it. they use well thought out statements that convey their meaning without causing anyone to feel that harassing words were spoken.

you are defending people being vastly toxic, because people that are not vastly toxic do not get banned. these people that are banned for "responding" usually put more filth, and wasted time into the game than the "troll" they got started on.

if you swear at your screen, no one bans you, if you spend the time typing it in instead of playing the game, someone will.

just one final point, there are different lvls of bans, people just don't instantly get perma'd. they had warnings that what they were doing wasn't accepted, and continued to do so.

But who's to say it isn't a troll. A lot of people think that off-meta picks are trolls when they outplayed, countered or what they tried didn't work but they wanted to try.

Also if you punch someone in real life because they were being annoying, stopping you from doing work or other things that are bad in a workplace/school, the person who punched is going to be punished. The other may be punished for what he did but it depends on what he did.

And if you get banned for raging in chat against a troll then you must have been toxic of plenty of times before since an insta-ban without warning is pretty rare.

False.

  1. If they aren't typing anything in chat, you would only be able to tell if they were trolling instead of being just bad if they had well over 20 deaths, and even that isn't a perfect indicator.
  2. If you're flaming someone who's doing bad, you're in the wrong. If you're flaming a troll, you're both in the wrong.
  3. If they are reported for non-chat trolling, the system actually can tell and it is looked into. So no, reporting doesn't do nothing. It's harder, and therefor slower, but it is still effective.

The real problem is that it seems the majority of the community thinks a player who makes a poor choice must be trolling. It's not trolls that are the problem, it's ragers.

I had a Bard who stole my jungle CS while claiming to journey. I don't mean he cleared camps, I mean he would go to my location freeze me and last hit the big monster. Needless to say ganking was a very iffy thing to do for me that game. [slayer-jinx-unamused]

Tocosrevenge3 votes

Im def doing this to the next toxic jungler I get.

Randomonium4 votes

Careful with this strat, even if the guy is toxic.

I've had people try to troll me by last hitting my jungle camps (usually because I wouldn't gank for them by the 3 minute mark and they've already given up a two kills.) It doesn't work out well for them because I just go into their lane and tax all their minions because I'm better at last hitting than them.

Tridem1 votes

Idk get that... Did he freeze u with his ult or does his q work on allies too?

Knoyle1 votes

he would wait for me to weaken it and last hit the monster or actually put me in stasis so he could grab it.
