to all the trolls and haters I would just like to say think about what you say before you say it because I'm a 12 year old boy who's mom very well may have cancer and I know that all the time people say "I hope you get cancer" or "I hope your mom dies" but really honestly do you really wish that on anyone if so you're a very hateful person. I can't imagine hoping cancer on someone no matter how mad I was, let alone over A GAME! SOMETHING THAT WAS MADE TO BE NOT SERIOUS BUT FUN. I just really really sincerely hope that some of the people out there will read this and stop saying those mean things because now I don't know what to do but please just pay attention and think about what you say before you say it. this is all I ask thank you for your time and thank you for read this whole post.

as if saying "I hope you get cancer" really makes it happen. People get cancer all the time, has nothing with people saying it. It's words, that's like saying stop calling people idiots cause they may become stupid.

Sucks for your mom , but let's be honest.. words are words you have the option to mute people, it's technically your fault if you don't use the option Riot gave you.

It's because it's human nature + the internet. Here is the thing, in real life outside of the internet people are are nice to each other for most part. On the internet not so much because they know or at least assume no one will ever know their identity and they can be as big of dicks as they want without repercussions.

Gaming in particular is what causes a lot of people to be toxic.. reason why is you rely on other people to complete an objective. When another person isn't taking it serious or going out of his way to keep you from winning or simply just isn't making smart choices human nature kicks in and you get mad. Same thing happens outside of the internet, If you are working a job and one person is slacking off and making your job harder you are gonna get pissed. If you are in the military and someone is making dumb decisions that could get your squad killed you are going to let them have it.

True it's just a game (virtual world) but human nature is as real as can be rather on or off the internet. Someone might get more mad than the other guy, someone might say you're an idiot to relieve stress while someone else might say I hope you die of cancer. I'm not saying it's right to do that but everyone is different and has certain ways to relieve stress. Thing is you have to remember it's human nature to get upset and not take what people say literally over a game. Just because they say something in the heat of the moment doesn't mean 5 minutes from then they aren't going to regret saying it let alone mean it literally in the first place.

The way this game is setup, it pretty much makes a person toxic. The only cure I see to being less toxic is playing less, if you play to much you start to take the game to serious to the point you notice every single about this game angers you. To much of something is never a Good thing, that goes for on the internet or in the real world.

If person (A) feeds and trolls person (B) in a game and makes them lose then yes, I think person (B) has every right to go off on person (A). Saying or doing nothing makes person (A) think it's completely ok to troll when ever he wants. The problem is , everyone on the internet is a wanna be Badass and takes nothing serious anyone says, accept the sensitive cry babies who pretend to be offended so they can troll even more and report.

At the very least person (B) gets to let off some steam after the idiot person (A) just made person (B) waste 40+ minutes in a game just to lose because he thought it was funny. So yes, it does help.. Rather it does anything or not to person (A) it helps person (B) relieve stress..

In real life if someone did that you would just punch them in the face, kick them from the team or fire them from a job for doing stupid shit like that, but because you can only type on the internet it is the 2nd best thing to relieve stress.

Now saying to someone you hope them or a family member gets cancer is the right thing to say? Probably not.. But if it helps them relieve stress screw it , they earned it if you trolled them or went out of your way to screw the game up. Taking it literally as if them telling you that will somehow magically make you or your family get cancer falls on you.. Don't take shit people type seriously on the internet. If you can't help it then again that falls on you and you probably shouldn't be playing games if you are sensitive to stuff like that.

Riot can make all the rules in the world but they aren't going to change human nature to relieve stress if someone is mad. Most they can do is suspend or ban them in which case that person goes to a different game and Riot loses out on potential money.

Moral of the story? Don't troll people.. if you don't don't cry about it on forums if they say something you don't like. Be happy that's all you got and not an ass kicking in real life. If you don't troll them and they say that shit then just mute and report them.
