Muting abusive player pings

Monkeysects··1 votes·705 views

I know I've seen some posts about this in the past, but I wasn't sure if there was an official response to this problem. There needs to be a way to mute an individual's in-game ping spam. I tend to jungle in ranked and pings are typically a great way to communicate with the team for taking down objectives or setting up the timing for a gank. However, there are times when laners have a different idea of when those things should happen and if they don't happen precisely to their liking they respond with the constant '?' or '!' spam over the junglers head. This is essentially the opposite of the intention of the pings as a way of quick, effective team communication.

Is there currently any way to completely block a players spam? And if not, are there any plans to implement such a feature in the near future? note: I already mute all ping sounds

Is it abusive or are you telling me you want everything to go your way?

Pings can only be 'spammed' for a period of time before they can't ping anymore for a couple of seconds. I rarely have this issue. The way to counter it is just look for stupid plays and use the "?" thing. (Not spam) They shut up real quick.

It's abusive. It's non-stop spamming pings for the entire game by trolls.

If you can't handle ping spam then you really need to toughen up man. Don't be such a wimp.
