So I said I'm gay, and have a boyfriend, and get reported for offensive language?

So I said I'm gay, and have a boyfriend, and get reported for offensive language? No did not say anything else, in fact never use vulgarity or slang.

Didn't know being gay was reportable. When will the absurdity end?

Honestly at this point I hope I get banned for being gay so I can go on the news about how ridiculous Riot has become, it's absolutely absurd.

Why announce anything? Your preference has no effect on the game.

Everything is reportable. Did you join a game? Yes? then you can get reported. You just did something that allowed you to be reported.

Therefore, it doesn't matter what is reportable. You wanna know what does matter? What's bannable. If this is the situation, is it bannable? No? Then don't worry about it.

Stop using your sexuality as an excuse to get attention and you wont get any. Duhh simple.

Um... riot didn't report you. Some dumb player did. You can report anyone for anything. Why, just last game I reported someone for saying "gj". IT'S NOT MY JOB, IT'S A GAME! I DON'T GET PAID TO PLAY LOL!

But seriously, you're just getting all indignant because some idiot decided to report you for a petty and/or stupid reason. The news won't care. Riot won't care. No one will care. You're acting like a drama queen over what is basically someone calling you a name on the bus. Is it rude? Yes. Is the guy who did it a jerk? Yeah. Should the world take note of your indignity and rush to soothe you of the horrible ordeal you've suffered? NO. Grow up. No one cares. A single report over something so stupid is meaningless. Now if you're getting reported often enough that it IS a problem... that's another story, and I doubt it has anything to do with you being gay. If it does, why the heck are you telling everyone in every game that you're gay? That's like ASKING for negative attention. Why would you tell a bunch of kids online personal information about you? That you're gay, black, asian, jewish, a furry, a woman or anything? How does your support knowing things like that help him protect you in lane?

No... you were crying for attention then, and you're crying for attention now with this post. So congrats you got what you wanted and made yourself look like you have the maturity level of a middle schooler in the process. Worth?

Nobody cares what your sexuality is, and for many straight people the imagery is a bit disgusting to imagine. I have several gay friends. We can be friends because they act normal. They don't act like being gay makes them a special snowflake deserving of more attention, and they certainly don't pressure me to talk about it. Just keep it to yourself.

Were you banned or had any systematic punishment from Riot towards you? Otherwise I'm confused at why your treating this as Riot's fault. People can lie and bend reasons to report, and it's their (The one reporting) fault when they do so.

Gay thread tbh.

i already said that nobody likes to listen to the personal stuff which has 0 relevance to the game and as another anon said it's not a pleasant matter to speak of near minors who play this game too.

what do you get from being a social justice warrior? a sense of accomplishment when you actually did nothing? you would better visit thehungersite.greatergood.com or something

I am sry but first off no one on these forums will ever know you are gay or not. When you in game we also have no way to know if your 13 to 65. You could be the nice guy or the troll that is trying to make problems. NO ONE KNOWS YOU and frankly really cares about you.

Why do you feel the need to being your personal life into the game? The people on the rift are not your friends, they are only temporary allies. They are there for that one game.

If you are multi-quing and want to talk to your friends about personal stuff while playing get a on VOIP. Its rude to flood chat with non game related stuff. Some ice breaking or short comments are one thing, But talking on team chat about your personal life is pretty rude to others that are their for the game. A VOIP is a great way to hang with people you play with and share more personal information without bothering others.

Lets be honest here. You were in the wrong. Not cause your gay, but cause you do not understand time and place. In real life people just do not walk up to strangers and force personal conversation on others. Why do you think you should be able to in a game where you get punished for quitting before the game is over?

I think anything about sexual preferences or sex could be considered offensive language. Remember that this is a game with a wide variety of players of a lot of ages. Just because something you say isn't offensive to you doesn't mean it isn't offensive to anyone else. Some people are offended by homosexual people and don't want to hear about it in game..

Raava, you do realize you are arguing with indoctrinated 10-year-olds, right? They don't know how to properly evaluate science from BS yet. It's like trying to explain calculus to someone who is mentally challenged... they just don't have the capacity to understand. To ignore that they are mentally unable to comprehend, yet still to debate it is an exercise in futility.

So, back to the music videos.

Stop trying to get attention

if it was dota they would have very limited number of reports... try dota :3

seriously, don't annoy people, sexual preferences it's not something which people like to discuss with or listen to from strangers
