New Zealand runner Nikki Hamblin tripped, and knocked over American runner Abbey D'Agostino. But Abbey helped Nikki up, and made sure they both crossed the finish line. http://a3.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2016%2F0816%2Fr114457_1296x729_16-9.jpg&w=570

Meanwhile, if the jungler dies to the enemy mid, the ally mid laner is like: https://media.giphy.com/media/Mir5fnHxvXrTa/giphy.gif

All of the worst dregs of humanity, the scum, the rejected, the unstable, and the insane were dragged together.

And they formed a community of gamers, called League of Legends players.

I wish league players were like that for a lot of reasons ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Gamers aren't human.

Well in real life, if millions of people were watching you and somehow you tripped someone (or vice versa), you would want to be professional about it ... because if you act toxic in public, there will be consequences and you'll make your country look bad. Meanwhile on League, there really aren't any consequences and because it's all in a virtual video game, people hardly feel they're being judged. Sure you might get punished by the League system, but it doesn't do much of anything else to you as a person. But I totally agree with the OP regardless, people on games tend to be way more toxic.
