Seriously just fed up with this game in general so please give me one goddamn reason not to be toxic to teammates. If they don't like it deal with it, learn from your mistakes and stop feeding so other people don't have to point it out for you, and don't say all that B.S about "Ohhh your teammates perform worse" Or "It causes them to tilt blah blah blah" honestly when I got flamed like when I was level 6 I didn't give a shit I was thinking to myself "Damn I need to listen and stop sucking lol". Unlike other people I don't have a god damn mental breakdown and start feeding anymore then I have. Rarely flamed out now (even while playing ranked surprisingly) but at this point I don't want to lose because the mistakes of my team anymore I'm done with that shit so every time a player feeds I say "Good game" and stop trying cause it ain't worth my time anymore. Maybe I do need a better outlook towards the game but I just can't even believe when a teammate ruins the game for me I should embrace his ass with open arms and baby him in chat till we decide to surrender.

Because you're a worthless little shit. Does that answer your question?

Simple. Because the other people on your team/enemy team are human beings. You are playing a game, they may not be perfect, but this is not life or death and they are all real people.

Or think about it this way. Imagine that every person you are playing with/against is sitting in the same room as you. Would you say the things you say to their faces? Would you expect them not to punch you in your mouth for saying the things you do?

Don't be an internet tough guy. It's a waste of energy. Lay off the roids, man.

The true Golden Rule:

Don't be a d***.

because being toxic doesn't help. it does nothing to benefit you at all. also, raging and being toxic decreases moral which makes games harder to win.

Lol, I understand where you're coming from man. Nothing pisses me off more then when we lose because one person was retarded. It pisses me off that a lot of people get offended at even the slightest bit of criticism. For example, I've had this happen to me before.

Me: "Yasuo, don't go all in on Fizz. He's two levels above you, just try to harass him a bit." Yasuo: "Shut up Singed god I can do this" Killed by Fizz Yasuo: "What the hell" Me: "Just focus on farming, Yasuo" Yasuo: "Stop being toxic Singed god I know stop flaming me" Reported after game for negative attitude

It basically gets to the point that if they're going act like I'm toxic even when I'm trying to be nice, I might as well be toxic.

Well, I can think of a logical one: The more toxic/negative players get reported, yes? And while this may lead to bans, it always leads to the Queue of Unfortunate Events. This queue is composed entirely of similar people (ragers, flamers, trolls), with the idea being you sink in your own filth until you get fed up and learn to swim. Or drown. As a general rule, many of these people have very little in the way of skill in addition to being poor teammates, so it drags any decent players down further and further until they quit being reported for a period. Once that period is up, you return to the "normal" queue, but much further down than you should be, so you play with less skilled people, rage, get reported, rinse and repeat.

If climbing out of that doesn't appeal to you, I would advise finding a different game. If you don't enjoy it here, you shouldn't be wasting your time. Go have some fun instead.

Because losing control of your emotions over a game is not only extremely self centered and prideful, but also ruins your state of mind and your entire teams. In what situation is it permitted to repeatedly slander and harass other people? The answer is NOT while playing any form of entertainment.

Your mental issues aren't anyone's fault but your own. Clean your laundry, wear cologne. Cause nobody wanna smell you.

You don't want your account perma'd. This is the only reason to not be toxic. Any others are completely irrelevant. I did not care at all if JayMC1130 got perma'd 2 seasons back, I was fed up just like you OP, and I went on a rampage to take it out on others. It got perma'd. Go figure, right?

If you value your account and the money and time invested into it then you will choose to not be overly toxic or even toxic at all. And by this I mean trolling as well as flaming. Intentionally trolling games by feeding, afking, throwing on purpose etc, are all actually MORE toxic actions than flaming. Additionally those trolling actions generally lead to flaming and mudslinging, breeding more toxicity. If you value the account and would like to play on it in the future and utilize the things you have purchased for it you will remain a positive force in the community. There is no other reason besides this that is legitimate.

Seriously just fed up with this game in general

Then quit, pussy.

Dedrius7/27/2015, 1:54:53 AM1 votes

All being toxic does it put your teammates on tilt so they focus more on the mistakes they have made rather than moving on and trying to turn their game around and make a positive impact.For you to say that when someone is toxic you think "I better listen to this guy he seems to know what hes talking about" is just dumb. If someone on your team says "LOL GG trash jungler dies 5 minutes into the game" there is nothing to take from that to help your gameplay other than knowing that whoever said it is a dick.

Also this game is meant to be fun, and having someone say "wow you are so trash at top lane" does not a fun game make. So if you really feel this way about the game you may want to take a break from it and not ruin other player's good time if you can't enjoy the game.

  1. You're less likely to get help from your teammates, even the ones you're not toxic to, if you're toxic. It's just more satisfying to let the toxic player die than to try and save them. You're going to need their help if you want a chance of turning a bad start around.
  2. Morals. Be a better person, not some lowlife. You can critique teammates in a way that doesn't come across as being a jerk. And no, contrary to popular toxic player belief, it doesn't have to take you 5 carefully worded sentences to do it.

Because instead of wasting your time making yourself angry.

You could just play a different game.

Or watch a movie.

Or pet a kitten.

Or feed a baby.

Or wash the dishes.

Or balance your checkbook

Or draw yourself as a non-angry person.

because you cant flame and play well at the same time

It solves nothing, and brings down team morale. Nobody is going to want to help you when you act like a bratty monster. If I'm not the subject of the rage, and I see it, it makes me not even want to help you in any way. In fact it ends with people muting you, causing your teamwork to suffer.

Another thing I've found with toxic people is they're entirely fine dishing it out, but they certainly can't take being called out on their bull. It's funny watching them fall part in the post game lobby when people can see everything. A couple people speak up and spill the truth tea, and they're outta there quick after having so much to say the entire game. There's no reason for you to be acting up like that.

You're certainly not perfect every match either, and we all have bad games. I don't think someone making snotty comments about your gameplay would have helped you. I've made far more comebacks with someone who lost their lane badly by encouraging them, rather than being cruel to them.

I think being a decent human being should be enough of an answer, but the team really does suffer when you act so selfish and immature.
