How do the rest of you deal with the <20 year olds playing this game?

They are so ignorant and disrespectful it throws me off my game. I can barely even play when these children are acting the way they do. Is there no sense of decency in this generation? I wasn't perfect when I was a teenager but I was never ignorant to people I don't know especially when they don't deserve it. I was brought up that way. How, just, how do these people even exist? The slightest thing will set them off and they just lose it, there is no turning back, its actually insane.

Take it easy man, teenagers are overemotional as a rule of thumb due to puberty. Just do what I do and play when school is in session. Weekends and holidays aren't that great, but weekday mornings and afternoons are pretty safe.

Hm, ok, so I guess I'll have to explain it to you.

First, the father plants a seed inside the mother's belly. Then, the seed takes nutriments from her (like a parasite) and grows, grows... Until it is shaped like a money-and-time-eater-manshaped most commonly called "baby". And that's how these people exists.

More seriously, I know I was f**king dumb when I was young, and I know today's young generation is even worse.

However, what I know for sure is that you can't know foolproof the age of the person you're talking to, especially on the Internet.

Being sub-20 myself, 18, to be exact, I actually take a little offense to your generalizing everyone under the age of 20. And honestly, as stated by at least one other person here, there's no way to tell who in the match is and isn't under 20. You could have a game with a bunch of mature 15 year olds, or a bunch of immature 21 year olds. Myself, I fall on the "respectful" side of the line, unless I'm already having a sub-par kind of day, then i admit that my temper gets the best of me.

Just remember that they won't get anywhere in life with their attitudes, or they'll get it pummeled out of them. Don't pay those grumpy little prepubes any mind, and it gets easier to focus on the match.

This is why riot created chat restrictions.

Eh, I was taught not to stereotype or generalize people in to a group because of a few bad individuals.

As to an actually helpful response: Mute them report them after the game realize it's an online game and people are jerks because for some reason they find that fun and no gaming company wants to throw away 75% of their profits by actually dealing with people acting inappropriately. If you don't fight back they lose interest and give up most times.
