ok so i've been reported three times to day for THE STUPIDEST REASONS

Saint Archer··2 votes·711 views

it's complete bs, i'm getting reported for literally saying nothing wrong. it's ridiculous. and watch riot ban me just to spite me. i have been shit on by riot and the league community for well over a year. and riot does literally nothing about it. so this is the last one

"is anybody lagging all of a sudden?" no answer, that right there shows how shitty of an attitude that team had. "IS ANYBODY LAGGING ALL OF A SUDDEN OR DID YOUR FINGERS FALL OF SO YOU CAN'T TYPE ANYMORE?" i figured nobody saw it because they were fighting or whatever "bitch" "nobody's lagging" because zed is totally the entire team and can speak for them

and boom i get reported.

ap ez had a stupid build "ok ez i'm not sure where you got that build from, but you need cdr, and if you're 1/7 don't get soulstealer" reported

like what the fuck league community? is there like a separate forum for trolls where you guys just pick out targets to harrass every single game? jesus fucking christ, i've seen terrorists treat strangers better... and that's not even a joke...

Because "IS ANYBODY LAGGING ALL OF A SUDDEN OR DID YOUR FINGERS FALL OF SO YOU CAN'T TYPE ANYMORE?" isn't remotely like anything a jerk would say, right?

you're playing a game that stands for LoL, Riot doesn't give two shits about whether or not you get reported. leave it too Tribunal and let them decide.

i think it's fucking around, but hey if you're that much of a little girl you think it's offensive and calls for "bitch" response, you probably aren't mature enough for the internet.

Y'know, it's funny - I didn't say it was offensive, nor did I even imply that a "bitch" response was called for from it. And yet you jumped straight into insulting me.

That doesn't say much about how you handle communicating with others in more stressful situations, like, say, in-game. Is it really any surprise, then, that you're being reported?

y'know, it's funny - i was saying "you" as in a generalized statement, not necessarily specifically you. although i should have worded it better, frankly you have 0 right to comment on a single one of my games unless you played it with me.

I didn't comment on any of your games. I commented on what you've said here, and used your reactions to that to extrapolate likely behaviors in situations where you don't have the benefit of time to ensure that you're presenting yourself as you wish to.

Here, let me be really clear about my position:

Your "fucking around" comment seems aggressive and rude. You should avoid that kind of comment, as it's likely part of what's getting you reported. However, regardless of how rude or aggressive it seems, that in no way excuses further toxicity from others, and I genuinely hope you reported them.

That said, those reports are meaningless, so long as you are playing by the Summoner's Code.

yeah well i got chat restricted for a nother 20 games. it's complete bullshit. riot's discriminating for some reason. there is no way i can have this bad of luck in this game, falling victim to disgustingly toxic people almost every single game and yet i'm the bad guy. it's bullshit.

If your examples above are anything to go by, it's quite possible that the perspective and attitude you approach the game with may be part of the problem.

As I said, that all-caps comment seems to be pretty rude, and acted as an inciting event for future problems - it set the tone of things. If you'd yelled at someone in real life, "HEY ARE YOU DISTRACTED OR DID YOUR TONGUE FALL OUT SO NOW YOU CAN'T TALK ANYMORE?" it's doubtful that you'd get a positive response.

That doesn't mean that they should have responded the way they did. But it does mean that there's something you can do, that's under your control, to minimize the issues you have.

Try this: Don't talk to anyone. Once you're off your chat restrictions, stop using chat entirely for, say, 10 games. Use pings to communicate what you need to (reasonably, of course - spamming pings isn't likely to do much more than piss people off). Take note of how much toxicity you see in your games.

Most players I've spoken with who tried that discovered that they saw far fewer toxic teammates.

see, i don't automatically assume someone's screaming when they type in caps. i'm not an idiot. that's just like the people who assume someone's angry when they swear.

Jubbinaut2 votes

All-caps are commonly indicative of emphasis. Emphasizing an entire sentence is akin to screaming. So statements in all-caps are considered "yelling" on the internet. It's not entirely accurate, but it's the prevailing comparison.

It's important to remember, I think, that the way your statements are perceived is at least as important as how they are intended - and possibly more-so. If you're trying to communicate with people, it's best to do so as clearly as possible - and misrepresenting yourself in the manner you've shown isn't helping that goal.
