Forfeits a gaming community that can't handle adversity, reward system for those that don't forfeit.

I just started playing League a few months ago, I'm still playing, so I do think it's entertaining and there is a a bunch to love about LOL. One thing that bugs me though is the fact that most of the games I play in are forfeits. I'd say about 80%. Everyone wants that first kill. If they don't get it they'll rush to try and get revenge. Then they die again and again losing towers in the process. Is the LOL community inept at dealing with adversity? The answer is yes. It's frustrating on both sides. The guy who feeds is always the one to start the ff voting process. The losers always concede to defeat instead of trying to figure out how to turn the tide of battle, or learning from their mistakes. It's frustrating on the winning end as well. Instead of being stoked about having a great round, I'm trying to figure out how I can give the other team a false sense of security so the game might go on till the Nexus is destroyed and I might get an S. So I think there should be a reward system for players that don't forfeit. A participation trophy or something for the players that never give up. Goonies never say die!!! Stop the forfeits and handle adversity people. You might just come back and win a game.

If you want to turn the tides then play with someone who actually gives a shit about you.

Nobody wants to spend another 50 minutes watching you fumble around like a goober knowing full and damn well the only thing they can actually depend on is luck if they aren't the one carrying. They don't surrender because they can't handle adversity, they surrender because 1. they have no faith in your abilities and 2. they didn't login to deal with adversity.

If I wanted adversity I'd sign up for some more classes or get married, fuck that. You wanna get off to adversity you get your ass to work and make it worth it!

FYI

9/10 times that I vote yes to surrender I am not giving one crap whether or not we can win but instead whether or not winning is worth it. I am a grown man who owes you nothing beyond what I signed up for in the summoners code. I will not stay to be harassed and I will not stay to be trolled and I'm certainly not gambling an extra 20-80 minutes on your skills being better than the last 1000 chumps I got queued up with when I could play 1-3 more games in that amount of time and even get some earlygame practice in if I really bombed or just didn't like how it went.

You want to give the enemy team a false sense of security so you can just waste their time and beat them? Where is the sportsmanship in that? You should want an evenly matched battle, not to continue stomping people in the ground when you have an overwhelmingly advantage.
