I haven't played League with my real life friends in forever.

It's better for our friendship.

I play games, such as LoL, much more than most of my friends. So, to be honest, they're pretty bad but they're my friends and it is quite fun to play with them.

I think 5/7 aren't level 30 yet and the other two play the same 'meh' champions no matter what they're up against.

My friends have had some... pretty heated arguments, after having LoL as the last straw in a series of disagreements from outside the game. They pretty much stopped playing together, and even playing in some cases. Can't say i'm doing worse without them; those games only caused stress and negativity, very rarely fun.

As for always picking the same things... I'm pretty much guilty as charged of this. I'll pick Zyra into anything bar Leona, that gal scares me.

One of my friends only plays Sion or Yorick, and builds almost pure AD on both, while the other only plays Zac.

This is sad but true. My friends and even my boyfriend get really hostile when we play league. We can't even enjoy ourselves for the rest of the day after because of the residual anger.

You need new friends.

Honestly, that's a pretty inconsiderate move. First ask yourself, are you offended by it personally? Then ask if you really think other people who play League would be offended. If the answer is yes to either, reporting them still helps no one. Them being banned won't stop them from being offensive, it'l just make them angry at people for not being able to understand offensive humor. Offensive humor, while seemingly bad, can actually be pretty fun and is a healthy way to show how ridiculous we think the things we are making fun of are. For example, when someone uses the N-word in a joke, I'm okay with it if it's done properly. Why? Because it showcases the fact that that person realizes how stupidly offensive the word is and that it is so stupid that it can only be said in a joke, not seriously. If you think it's not humor but they are genuinely being offensive, maybe you should stop hanging out with them. They might be bad people. Also, as a final note, you reporting them every game has made your reports mute. Riot added a system that stops people who spam reports from having an impact with their reports to stop reporting trolls.

Out of all of that, of which I barely skimmed, I would like proof of said system that makes spam reports mute. Because I've used the Tribunal and don't think there is anything like that in there...

Well, Honoring the same person multiple times lowers the effect each one has, and it reduces if they're on your friends list. It is assumed (it's been so long since Lyte even bothered talking about Honoring people and reporting the same person more than once) that reports would follow the same paradigm.

However, (and I assume both of you mean "moot" and not "mute") continued reporting still effects their overall grade. If they have inappropriate names, report them as such after every match. If they curse at others or call someone out in a match, report them as such.

My friends and I all play over Skype calls, but generally don't meet the full 5-man team size due to scheduling. They all like ganging up on our teammates for bad plays or miss-timings, but never ping their intentions (like I do). When they start arguments in the chat, I don't take their side (98% of the time) and do in fact report them post game if it gets especially heated. I believe in consequences for actions willingly taken, whether in jest or in anger.

We all have a responsibility to police our teams and community, because that's the ONLY way they'll get better. If permabans go down, then they obviously aren't worth keeping in the community, because only the worst of the worst of the worst reach that depth of toxicness.

So you backstab your friends without them knowing and then you come here expecting to be considered the greatest hero of all time?

Pff I wouldn't have someone like you as my friend. If I were OP I would just tell them in person that being toxic would get them banned and try to scare them from doing so but I wouldn't report them without them knowing.

Greatest hero of all time? Confession Bear as a meme is meant to be something you're ashamed of or don't want to admit.

Maybe you should learn memes before coming into the meme section and posting.

I'd play with my IRL friends more, if they weren't so much better than me, since they expect me to be as good as them, and then seem surprised when I screw up.

They deserve it.

You did the right thing bro. I've done the same. Ignore the haters who think that being a good friend means supporting people's bad behaviour. It's nonsense and it reflects poorly on you if you do so.
