Chat-less server

I hate dealing with the chat in-game but not everyone does. FIRST AND FOREMOST: If you like chat, great. Stay in your NA server or wherever you are from. This wouldn't effect you. But take it from me, there are some of us that are simply exhausted with the trash talk, put downs, disagreements, offensive language, racial slurs and everything that comes along with them.

Muting people can be seen as offensive...so that isn't a solution. Especially when they haven't done anything to deserve it yet. Muting them AFTER they do something is too late. The annoyance has already begun.

Chat can communicate strategy yes, but if both teams can't chat then pings fall into line the way they always should have. I know there are some things that cannot be said with pings. Oh well...both teams would just have to adapt.

I love playing this game. I dislike talking to most other players. Nobody can deny the terrible community... sadly we all take part in it at times.

I know most people don't get it and will think this is a waste of time...but I am willing to bet there are enough people that would play in it to make it worth having.

It could single handedly eliminate the need for a discipline/report system. (Aside from AFKs, which are being handled by leaver buster anyway)

TLDR: Please make a chat-less server for those of us that love this game but hate the negativity that comes out of chat.

I've had many games where people don't put a single word in chat. If you feel strongly about it, seriously, just mute people and that's it. Ping where needed, and all is good.
