21 day chat restriction

Shattered Mind··1 votes·405 views

I get this because I yell at obvious trolls(you can tell when someone is having a bad day vs just out right feeding)

I also once got reported because i was trying to help someone and they took it the wrong way.

Anyone have these experiences?

Oh and Riot dont say the whole we need to have a wonderful great environment for all players...damn libtards.... if they want a peaceful fun environment go play team builder or other normal games...stay out of ranked.

Why should ranked allow harassment and normals not? It's not ok in Normals, it's not ok in Ranked, it's not ok in real life. Be the better person and have some self control; if someone doesn't want your advice don't try to force it on them. If they are being toxic, mute them if you're incapable of ignoring them, and report them later.

so you are saying trolls/feeder should be allowed in ranked?

Deep Terror Nami4 votes

Where did I say that? I didn't. Not even close. I didn't address trolls/feeders in any way.

I said you don't have the right to verbally assault people just because you don't like what they are doing. It hurts you, it hurts them, it hurts the rest of your team and enemy that has to listen to it. There is no "Toxicity hierarchy" where the first person is more wrong than the next; you are all equally wrong.

All trolls should fall off the earth. Including you, you are obviously trolling.

If you don't have anything smart to say against your readers, then don't say at all. You're not making any sense with this "counter-argument".

I will continue to bash trolls/feeders all day long.

That doesn't even look like a "bash". Looks like a "flick" to me.

Heh.

Flick? Wouldn't that mean he at least has a very small point in some way shape or form? This looks more like he is trolling everyone instead

No, it's just easier for Riot to punish toxic people rather than trolls. Chat logs take a lot less memory than a match recording.

Riot considers retaliation to be unacceptable behavior.

No one expects rainbows and unicorn farts. We don't all have to be buddy-buddy and dance in the flowers with butterflies. But I don't think it's too much to ask people to at least try not to be jerks to each other.

EDIT: Also, I'm confused. Did you mean 21 game chat restriction? Because I've never heard of them being issued in days.

yea 21 game. Riot also doesnt realize that my patience and control only goes so far. And i have better self control than most. Its just i care about this game.

All of Riot's previous systems have been designed to ensure that players who only have occasional bad days aren't caught in them. They've stated that while this system is intended to spread a somewhat wider net, those who primarily tend to be positive or neutral should remain unaffected. So I'd say they do understand that patience and control can only go so far - they plan for it.

And i have better self control than most. Its just i care about this game.

I'm not trying to judge you, here, but you need to remember something: most players control themselves well enough to avoid chat restrictions. That's not to say they don't occasionally spout off, just that it's very uncommon.

There's a thousand ways to handle trolls - or at least to deal with the frustration they evoke - that Riot won't ever know about, much less care about. Yell at your monitor, or keep something nearby to punch now and then. Take breaks between games, especially after frustrating ones - personally, I find that a 15-20 minute break of doing something else (reading, watching youtube videos, whatever) that's not League-related helps me let go of those frustrations.

Finding a better outlet will do you far more good overall than blaming Riot for trying to keep their players acting like semi-reasonable human beings (y'know, normal people).

but i have to cram as much league as a i can in the next month before i cant play its for like 2 years!!

So play. I'm not saying you have to take my advice. Do what you feel you need to do. But if you aren't intending to take steps to ensure your behavior consistently falls in line with Riot's policies, you should be prepared for the consequences they may impose. A two-week ban may not be likely, but if it was issued, it would remove rather more of your League time than an occasional 15-minute break would.

And, honestly, wouldn't you prefer to enjoy the games you play, rather than simply playing more games?

DrCyanide1 votes

All the more reason to change your behavior. You wouldn't want a 2 week ban in this time frame, would you?

My life would not be negatively impacted by a 2 week ban.

"damn libtards"

Looks like it was deserved.
