"stfu"

If that's your response to someone asking you to group up, stop chasing, defend a turret, or not focus a tank, you're probably playing the wrong game.

I respond with something similar to that if someone who has been really toxic is telling me what to do.

Had this one game with or Mid choosing Zed, knew right away he was going to be toxic or annoying at the very least because he was bragging he was streaming and was actin all high an mighty about it. I was against Renekton so i chose Garen, i main Garen Top and am confident in my abilities to beat Renekton. I chose Ignite and Zed told me "Hey stephenwhatever, if you are Top then take tele not ignite. Ignite isnt going to help you." to which me and some of my other teammates replied "Ignite can be better on Garen then Teleport." he didnt believe me but whatever i didnt care. The game started and he decided that telling me how to play once wasnt enough and started saying "Ignite is useless top, i bet Ignite wont help you once." To my embarrassment i ended up giving them First Blood, i went to flash Q Renekton but hit a minion instead and died. After that i murdered him over and over again, of course with the help of Ignite cutting down on Renektons ability to heal with his Q. Meanwhile Zed is chain feeding Ziggs and still thinks he has the right to tell me how to play... So after awhile of him rapid fire typing telling us we should all do and how we suck i told him to "shut up". See my score was 13/7/0... his score was 1/9/4 and that one kill could have been a double kill but he ulted Morgana instead of Ziggs (both were below 300 hp) then blew all his abilities killing Morg and let Ziggs get away even though Morgana doesnt have an escape (her flash was down and Ziggs Zhonya's was down).

So in this kind of situation anyone telling me how to play and yet they are bad, toxic, or dont know what they are talking about i will tell them to stfu, because their terrible commands are why we are losing.

both your scores are ass honestly. You kinda fed more Zed, due to your gold worth being alot more compared to zed so you most likely gave more gold to the other team then zed did.

StephenizgodFeb 17, 20153 votes

uh no i didnt... take a look at when i started dying so much and look who i killed while dying... Wanna know why he stopped dying so much? he afked for 10 min...

Edit: http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=ccseancc143 I dont think you get to talk, most of my scores with Garen are better then most of your scores with Talon.

InsaneSamuraiFeb 17, 20153 votes

Even if he went 0/20/0, that's not a valid reason to verbally attack him. It's sad that many players truly believe that gives them a free card to say whatever they want.

ccseancc143Feb 18, 20151 votes

"Verbally attack him" I said both there scores are ass on a computer video game that means nothing in real life. If you get offended from soemething like that you need to get out more.

BeatzBoyFTWFeb 18, 20151 votes

You should sometimes admit that all assassins aren't perfect, even compared to a non-meta Garen.

Not the same scenario, but we've all had that one minion destroy us! You're not alone. :3

RyvakuFeb 16, 20154 votes

Naturally I don't listen to players that don't do that well in game. If they're feeding and being toxic they lost their rights to tell me what to do in game. Most players saying "group up" in the lower elo are toxic buggers that already been feeding and thinking mid lane wins all games even while behind.

InsaneSamuraiFeb 17, 20151 votes

Well I would base it on what they are asking of you instead of their score. I've been playing for 3 years and I generally have at least a pretty decent idea of what we should be doing next to progress toward winning more efficiently. Just because I know these things doesn't mean I don't get my ass handed to me entirely in lane sometimes. There are bad matchups, and there are better players out there, but neither of those things negate my experience, especially when I'm suggesting something that is almost always a good idea(like defending turrets or not focusing the tank).

2pudge1cupFeb 17, 20153 votes

Depends how the person "asks" it.

If they are a prick about something that they keep harping on for 5 minutes then they deserve a stfu, and I'll do the opposite of what they want.

Nucleophilic atkFeb 17, 20151 votes

People like you make the community toxic :D

RakvirFeb 18, 20151 votes

I agree that two wrongs don't make a right but fact of the matter is that people need to learn that their words/actions have consequences. If they want to dance the fine line down that strip of cracked ice, then you have absolutely NO RIGHT WHATSOEVER to whine and bitch about how the other person responds.

It doesn't make the person being provoked any less guilty but frankly, there are some people who deserve to have some whiplash because they couldn't make constructive criticism and think they own the rest of the team, body and soul, for the duration of the match.

I am far from perfect. I sometimes rage, though extremely rarely, and it's only been because of spoiled little brats who I refuse to believe were disciplined in any way, shape, or form during their childhood and therefore have no decency or respect for others as human beings.

Nucleophilic atkFeb 18, 20151 votes

No. I mean people like this that purposely do the opposite of the team and lose the game on purpose. Then report people for "toxic".

this isn't the best place to spread sarcasm... just saying... the balance threads are best for that.

TeemoHunter1337Feb 17, 20152 votes

why do people even say "stfu" to begin with. it just ruins team chemistry.

if u dont want to hear someone, mute them.

if u got nothing nice to say, dont say it at all.

better to be quiet than a jerk.

Pandemic PunchFeb 17, 20152 votes

Be careful! I got downvoted into oblivion on another thread by suggesting the mute button!

WoodakoodashoodaFeb 17, 20152 votes

I reserve suggestions and requests for after I've seen how my teammates play and how well they perform. I'll quietly note their mistakes and wait to see if they repeat those mistakes. If a re-occurring mistake starts costing us, I'll politely give voice on the matter.

I'll say things like.

"We need to push when they're all dead." If my team has won a few team fights, but then decided to farm, get dragon, or just B to get an expensive item.

"Please stop trying to backdoor. They're expecting it." If, after two or more attempts by our Yi to backdoor, ended in his death.

"We need more wards." If no one on the team wards and it ends up getting us killed.

I try not to lose my patience and, if I've nothing positive to say after a preventable loss, I just leave the post-game chat because the last thing I want to see are my opponents congratulating each other on beating me.

Knowing how it feels to lose, I don't say things like "GG" or "WP". I congratulate specific team members for their accomplishments. I don't engage a beaten adversary in conversation unless they speak. Unfortunately, most instances of this are one opponent insulting one or more people on their team and I'll say something like, "That's uncalled for" or "The only thing that 'sucks' around here is your attitude".

InsaneSamuraiFeb 18, 20151 votes

And you should be able to say those things without teammates flipping out on you :)

Civil DawnFeb 17, 20152 votes

The TrentFeb 18, 20152 votes

"stfu" is what 12 year olds say. When I don't like someone talking to me I mute them. Let me tell you this, no responsible person is going to say "stfu" unless they're joking.

InsaneSamuraiFeb 17, 20151 votes

I can't when the team is running around in 5 different directions, but I'm not mean about it and I say please :)

People still rage at me sometimes like I was being an asshole though lol.

Killer X 12Feb 17, 20151 votes

I split a lot, not because i like to split push or i'm on split push champions, but because my team likes to group when we have 20 minions at our top and bot towers, mid is already pushed up and cleared and there are no objectives up to contest. When people tell me to group, i usually just ignore it unless its actually makes sense to group. If someone asks me to group i'll almost always respond regardless of if its stupid or not. A bad call everyone follows is better than the good call no one does.

InsaneSamuraiFeb 17, 20151 votes

Yes, this! I see the same problem with pushing mid quite often. It's hard to be like "guys we can't just go all the way up and win right now, so lets push up something else" without someone getting mad at you lol.

Also, there have been countless times that I really didn't agree with a call, but I went for it anyway, and it turned out awesome. The only time this really sucks is if people are way too focused on chasing. Then you get like the eternal jungle aram match where everyone just immediately runs to the fight at different times so it never ends lol.

ChaosDrummageFeb 17, 20151 votes

I agree. I hate people that are spamming "stfu." I will say it, like Stephen said, in similar situations. But when it is abused, it is annoying and unjustified.

Damorion215Feb 17, 20151 votes

You what else is a bad response to someone asking you to do any of the above? Saying nothing at all and completely ignoring them. Not typing in the chat, not pinging, absolute silence. Because even when I mute everyone on my team (which I'm starting to do more of now at the beginning of every match) and I say nothing the entire match, I still use the pings, so at least I'm communicating.

truckboattruckFeb 17, 20151 votes

it is no ones duty to respect your opinion or advice do not give it without being asked

InsaneSamuraiFeb 18, 20151 votes

Communication is an integral part of this game. This isn't just 5 people running around seeing how many kills they can get, this is a team game where the more organized and cohesive team will win more times than not.

Dr EasterFeb 17, 20151 votes

As a Dominion player I listen to this a lot. Especially from "high" ranked players that think their ranks does any difference there. They also say I'm flaming when I ask a champion with high mobility to get sweeper and hunt shaco or just to not stand under the tower because you are telling your enemy where you are.

Cain the EnablerFeb 18, 20151 votes

I feel like if I ever say "stfu" then you have done or said something to lose my respect. I don't usually flip out like this, but if I do, I have my reasons. I only use team chat to make a point, talk strategy and sometimes have fun, but if people start criticizing and making accusations then I will let them know just once that they need to be quiet.

If people are telling you this a lot than maybe you should stay out of chat for a while.

InsaneSamuraiFeb 18, 20151 votes

So you're saying it's my fault for politely asking people to do the things I listed?

You do realize the most important thing in the game is teamwork, right?

Cain the EnablerFeb 19, 20151 votes

no I'm saying it depends on how you say things. If you're polite people won't tell you to be quiet.

When I said a full AD Jinx that she need a item 3102 or item 3026 to survive with Zed and Lissandra and , she was simply told me "stfu". Just because she got all Kills from me, a support.
