{Suggestion} Voice Chat?

I made a post earlier about being verbally abused in most of my games, so I'm offering a pretty meh solution to ragers and people that get caught out because of typing. Voice chat. Insert clapping music

There are so many times in a game where people say things in chat that they'd never say when in a voice call with someone. Even though there may be that one person that will say stupid insults, I think that voice chat would stop most of the ragers. We'd be able to communicate faster and more effectively and we won't be able to just hide behind emotionless words. We won't be as detached from what we are saying to our team. You do it in Worlds, why not bring voice chat to the rest of the league community that actually struggles with basic communication skills... Just saying.

Thanks, I'm seeing the problems with voice chat now... I just wish the community was better. I love this game. A lot, but literally, its community is the worst thing since anything. I just wish there was something that could be done... Maybe like verbal abuse be weighted as a heavier offense than unskilled player etc. Also match those that frequently AFK with those that frequently AFK. I've never AFKed from an on going game ever, but I've had 5-7 straight games where someone has left. Either with a crappy reason like 'oops left the oven on, I'll be back in an hour' or just leaving because they didn't realize that league games take about an hour... I think it would be so much more useful if players were matched like that first, then matched with skill level etc.

That's why I stopped doing any solo queue. I'm always in a party of 5 with some friends from TeamSpeak3. I did have one guy say that he needed to open the front door for his brother once and then never came back. So I have been in those games before.

And on the topic of voice chat. When it comes to both what you said and those from my link to another post about how people wont say the same thing with voice is complete bull, why would anyone believe that? Since they can tell you something much fast by simply speaking and they can really show the tome of what they are saying, they will say it out loud. Trust me, I've been doing online gaming on the PC for many,many years.

Maybe that's just me thinking that we have some kind of civilized training, but I guess not. Plus I see that chat skimming for reported verbal abuse is easier than listening to voice chats for riot employees. I'm just pissed that the people that have been here since S1 and have been as salty as the dead sea can still be here after probably receiving a billion bans. That's literally what someone said, they don't care about reports because they're still here... And I'm like... 'this is kinda complete bull and you need to go play minecraft or something please... Something simple for your miniature brain to fathom since you aren't intelligent enough to have a constructive conversation without flaming me for dying once.'

I will go back to a point that I made in another post about toxicity. Maybe we should have a separate server for people that just want to screw around and don't want to troll normals or ranked. That server could have URF, One for All, Hexakill, etc year round. Literally so many people would burn their frustrations there and the games would be faster on there, so AFKs in ranked and normals would just go there to have a quick fun game where they can go Teemo in urf or all Soraka on One for All. I think it's a great way to burn off raging emotions and it would be a looooot easier getting people that actually want to play ranked and win if we had a server for people that only wanted to f around.

What do you think?
