Trying Hard To Not Be Toxic

Hey everyone,

I have received many suspensions in the past for being toxic. I acknowledge it too. Throughout all season 4 I was a very toxic player. I even lost out on my end of season rewards. Didn't get a gold banner or my victorious skin. I just want to help out all you guys who are borderline toxic. Its not worth it. The one word you say to that player that is offensive wont make you feel any better after the game is over. Losing all the rewards you worked hard for aren't worth you bashing another player in your game. I had to learn the hard way by losing everything i worked hard for. I was even still toxic throughout this season, but then i finally realized. Why am i doing this to myself? The game inst fun when i take it to this level of toxicity. Not only am i hurting other players feelings, but i am hurting myself. So next time you want to say something offensive to your teammates or the other team. Just remember how hard you worked getting where you are at and what it would mean to you to lose everything you have achieved. For the past few months i have had my ups and downs. But as be close in on the season i can always remember when i feel stressed. I didn't get to where i am by flaming my teammates. I got to where i am with hard work, motivation, and with the help of my fellow league of legends community. Id like to thank all of the people who are kind and courteous in your games. When you treat toxic players and non toxic players with respect no matter how much you hate there guts. You will rub off on them. Because of you, League Of Legends is slowly becoming a much more positive environment for me and for everyone who plays the game.

I tend to try and leave a positive vibe in all my games, lets just make sure we all pass it on! ps. hope a rioter sees this. Very well written.

My friend lost his account because he was being toxic. you sound pretty nice actually. i guess we all have our bad games. Who knows maybe riot will show mercy and see you have changed and give your rewards back. Anything can happen and see you on the rift!

Sadly, when trolls and toxic exist, they will always be there. Somewhere. At some point. At one of your games. Even though you're being really positive and didn't say anything. There is no escape summoner 3

It's funny to be toxic I like making 12 year olds cry

I try super hard not to be toxic, I really do. But, for example, I had a game last night where I asked to play garen top and our first pick responded by locking in garen, taking ignite and smite, and declaring he was the jungler. Like, if he banned garen since I wasn't first pick and they could've taken it I can understand that, but that's just straight up trolling. (I assumed he was actually going top and locked in nunu, and ended up playing nunu top against vlad. Garen didn't even end up jungling, he made our runeglaive poppy jungle and took mid.) At that point I'm gonna be pissed at him, because come on, I just want to win my promos this time.

After a stressful day the last thing you want is people with idiot syndrome on your team. So that's where some of my rage comes from. Also that horrible horrible ping lag I get from Comcast has me in all caps for most of the game. Occasionally I give up on winning after I lose a bunch and go positive but that has never got me victories, not saying don't be positive just saying u don't win more when you are positive. When you and your teammates are trolling it's a different story, it really is fun whether I win or not when my entire team and I are trolling. These days I just say "pls stop feeding" repeatedly when I think my teammates are feeding, I also say ex. why are u 1v3, and if I get crotchety I say "can u not stop feeding?"

How I think I could not be toxic: Going into every game I will expect entire team to troll throw and feed. I would also mute my entire team( been doing that more lately) and I would keep thoughts to myself. Except of course spamming lag just to make sure my team knows that I'm lagging :)
