Inappropriate Words

Boba Connoisseur··5 votes·1,276 views

I swear. Ive reported 5 people already in two consecutive games that kept saying the "N" word. What is going on? I hope this isn't becoming a trend because it is extremely inappropriate. People think theyre just joking, but I think they're either ignorant or just dont have any care whatsoever. Am I the only one seeing these annoying little kids saying inappropriate words like that?

It doesn't make the games fun at all.

Don't even say you're going to report them. Just wait until the game ends, and select the little red button.

Right now there's no feedback system for after you report someone to let you know that the report went through. it was suppose to go live in this patch, but riot decided against it. I am getting rather annoyed that there's so many people spouting all sorts of words yet, when I report them, I get into the next game and guess what, there they are.

Just say, "Reported." Ignore them. Then report them.

great advice that can get you banned. saying "reported" is a negative action in itself.

the correct action is to immediately mute and report after game.

Technically inappropriate still fits, because of the type of environment Riot is attempting to make for League. Still you are correct, saying it like that does make the OP look like a child.

You have a language filter in settings, as well as a mute option. You wanna ban a player because you got offended lmao.

people are testing the new system. you cant know how to defeat something until you figure out how it works.

What's annoying is the fact that you constantly have to worry about offending someone in this game. This isn't how the world works, and I'm not sure why you people think that everyone is beholden to your sense of morals. Riot is preparing a generation of kids for a hard life. Since when is telling on someone respectable behavior? Nobody likes a tattletale, except in league.

what is annoying to me is that people think behaving in a way that is offensive is acceptable. that is not how the world works. I also dont know why you think we should be beholden to your morals, we are following the TOS, the guidelines, the rules... not a moral argument, although a moral argument could be made i suppose.

life if going to be very hard for the next generation if they think they can act any which way in real life and have no consequences for their actions, reporting violators of rules and laws is a civic duty, that personally i take very seriously, i have personally assisted in many emergency's because i report, and provide aid when able...

if you were being mugged, assaulted, violated, or were in need of help.... would you want someone to tattle to authorities to assist you?

BigNasty30001 votes

Mugged? A better example would be if someone gave me the finger while driving. Do you think the cops would care? You are comparing in game squabbles to muggings and assault. Not even close to a fair comparison.

"behaving in a way that is offensive" is not the same for everyone, and the fact that you don't understand that leads me to believe you are too young to have an actual worldview that isn't incredibly naive.

The entire bs summoners code is a moral argument. It's also very long and vague, so that it covers anyone being banned at any time. If you are too dumb to see this, I feel bad for you. If you tell on everyone, I guarantee that you will have no social life outside of this game.

People like you judge others. You judge quickly and harshly. It's a fast road to being lonely. Have you read the 1st amendment? It says that IRL, I can say whatever the fuck I want, and not be banned from society. That's how the real world works. Maybe you'd be more comfortable under ISIS, where they punish you heavily for saying "offensive things."

no actually i was comparing reporting a crime like a mugging to you saying

Since when is telling on someone respectable behavior? Nobody likes a tattletale, except in league.

reporting a crime is "tattletaling"

"behaving in a way that is offensive" is not the same for everyone

you are correct, which is why i said we are following the TOS, the guidelines, the rules... which are the same for everyone and which riot has very clearly stated that certain things are offensive to the community and to riot as a game company, and are not allowed

the 1st amendment has little to do with this matter

your personal attacks on me are unneeded for this conversation, i have an opinion you have yours, please stop personally attacking me, and i would love to continue this discussion so we can maybe clarify each others personal opinions and maybe make a change in the other person

BigNasty30001 votes

Where's the personal attack? Are you saying that you are that dumb? Maybe you are too sensitive. You can stop your opinion from being challenged by keeping it to yourself. If you share it, somebody might disagree. Tough shit, I am under no obligation to respect your asinine opinion.

The 1st Amendment is literally how the world (or at least America) works. That's why it applies.

You skipped over the part about all those rules being vague and very wordy. It isn't "clear" at all. It uses vague descriptive terms for behavior, and provides zero concrete examples.

Reporting a crime, and reporting everyone that offends your moral code are two different things. The fact that you think that swearing in a video game is comparable to a crime is telling. Get your priorities straight.

I know who never gets invited to parties, YOU!!!!!

ok... these are personal attacks

  • that leads me to believe you are too young to have an actual worldview that isn't incredibly naive.

about the 1st amendment...

The First Amendment starts with the words “Congress shall make no law …”

Does the First Amendment apply to private companies and organizations? No. The First Amendment applies to the government — to protect individuals from government censorship. While the text of the First Amendment says “Congress shall make no law … abridging the freedom of speech,” it means that no federal, state or local government official can infringe on your free-speech rights. A private company is not a government or state and therefore generally is not subject to the requirements of the First Amendment.

. It isn't "clear" at all.

riot has stated in vry clear terms that rasist remarks such as the one the OP is talking about is not allowed, this is from lyte http://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/34rghy/why_does_it_say_the_tribunal_system_has_improved/

We have very specific definitions of what it means to be negative, neutral, or positive.

Negative: these are players that are consistently verbally abusive, or consistently have signs of racism, sexism or homophobia in their language. In League today, less than 1% of players fit this bucket. On average, these players could show negative behaviors in as high as 25% of their games.

i dont feel continuing this conversation is helping anything so i believe i will stop here and leave it at we have different opinions on the OP's topic

Attacking your opinion is not a personal attack. Calling you fat and ugly is a personal attack, see the difference? Notice the context of all those statements.

What's clear is your usage of grammar and punctuation is so atrocious that you aren't worth arguing with. You try to keep your moral high ground, even though you have none.

As far as the 1st amendment, it applies in the context of how the world works. Thank you for your elementary interpretation of the first amendment. Once again, you will not be banned from society (jailed, for example), for speech. The first amendment applies in the context of how the world works, not that Riot is breaking it. Do you understand?

Nothing in that quote from Riot is clear. It is all vague. Just because it says "specific" doesn't mean it is. Work on your reading comprehension.

this is exactly how the real world works. I dare you to walk out on the street and insult random people you never met because they do something you dont like. Do it. To every action in real life there are consequences. negative or positive or neutral. why should that be different in this game.

BigNasty30001 votes

I get the finger while driving all of the time. We both move on with our days. Literally, nothing happens.

If, for example, someone is standing in the way at the grocery store and doesn't respond to a polite "excuse me," then I will be rude. Nothing has ever happened to me as a result. I have done it.

Why don't you walk around oblivious and uncaring about others and see how quick people call you things you don't like.

Aside from all the conflict in this thread, it is thing i will report off of a word use basis. there is no need for ti to be in ones vocabulary. Ofcourse not everyone will understand the hardship and blatant racism that the word reflects, but i believe it should be reported. people say "lol only youre offended" but it doesnt even hold the same value as other curse words, and no one should use it.
