I remember when I first started playing League of Legends.
I absolutely loved it. I had so much fun, just trying out new champions and playing the game, for better or worse, whether I won or lost. But so much has changed since then. I still log on almost every day, but I usually quit after playing a single game. The amount of toxicity I see absolutely baffles me. The kind of people that antagonize you just for the sake of it, that spam GGEZ in the chat, cuss out their own team when they lose, and shove it in your face if they beat you. I truly don't understand these people, it's second nature to me to just be polite. It's so rare for me to actually enjoy a game anymore, to wholeheartedly type "great game" in the end game chat. I can only think of two games like this, in the past few months. And the worst part is, I can't think of a solution. So many people are so mean, and I just don't get it. I'm not going to stop playing. League is something of an addiction for me. But maybe, just maybe I can change some minds.
