Create a division for +18 (tired of playing with kids)

HookedByTheDevil··5 votes·820 views

Throughout the years, LOL´s community has been largely growing. Consequently, the once numbered trolls, now abound in this territory.

I´m not asking for them to be excluded. I´m simply suggesting that you create a mode where only people above 18 are able to play; all the threatens, constant swearing and other negativity would be, I trust, reduced drastically, hence, enhancing the overall experience.

Best regards.

You do know about 99% of League players can lie about their age? Seriously, how new are you to the internet?

How could the division be created though? People can easily lie about their age.

we could create a system like they have in South Korea. Tie the account to the SSN. That would also take care of all the bot accounts!

It's highly unlikely that Riot would press for a restriction like this in the United States. There's a lot of paranoia over identity theft here and it would end up alienating a lot of potential customers from playing League. The loss in revenues would be massive.

i agree with you! People would see it as a massive privacy intrusion.

Then you're basically just shoving all the mature or non-aggressive teenagers (yes they exist) into a prisoners island until they turn 18 years old. That really sucks for them.

It would be better if Riot would just put the tribunal back in place so we could weed out the toxics better. Age isn't always an indicator of maturity. The guy who shot up the church in NC was 21....

That doesn't change anything. If there's a choice to be in a non-toxic environment, then non-toxic players will take it. This leaves toxic players and people under 18 all stuck in the same place. It's the exact same effect as a prisoner's island, except you don't even have to break a rule to get stuck there if you're unfortunate enough to be under 18 years of age.

And if you really think they're going to tie accounts to real identity (especially via SSN) then you're out of your mind. They would lose absurd amounts of money and players if they implemented that.

You act like people over 18 are any different in how they act.

Most people change a lot after they move out of their parents home and get a taste of the real world. At 18 a lot of people go to college and move out. So it's somewhat accurate, but it's not necessarily true.

I found a nickel on the pavement at a bus stop, therefore all nickels must be from bus stops.

When I moved out I became more of an asshole due to realizing no one will reprimand you for it.

You make it seem like all toxic people are below 18+.

The truth is most people are above 18+.

If you don't think this would be a better experience for the adults who play this, you're mad. Also, probably part of the age group we don't want to play with.
