Riot politics are inhuman.

Hi guys, I'm assuming what i'm about to tell is not new and some people will find me annoying or just retarded, however, i'll say it anyways.

Riot politics (Summoner code) are just inhuman, you can't express nor feel emotions in the game, you can't call other's mistakes, you can't get mad, you cant be human. And i'm not talking about those toxic trolls that say "OMG FUCK YOU FOR FEEDING" or "OMG YOU DIDNT GANK ME YOU PIECE OF SHITTTuhh$4HGASUYE#$". I'm talking about normal "callouts" like "You didn't gank me in 20 minutes" or "Would you stop dying?". If you are having a rough mid and you are, with your oponent, calling each other bad when you kill him/die, you'll be marked as toxic and probably banned... If someone in the team is AFK and you want the other team to know so they can help reporting him, YOU ARE THE TOXIC one and you'll be banned... I didn't know that since Jenny711 told me on the riot support that you can BARELY express anything on the chat. Let's take a look (i'll provide screenshots if someone wants it).

"Hey again, There's a difference between helping someone and telling someone to stop playing the game. Telling them to stop playing the game will not make them play better. Flaming and bullying them will not make them play better. There's no reason for you to call them out on their mistakes. They died. They know they made a mistake. They don't need you to pile on the negativity. The only thing you do is make them feel worse. You can however, say, "hey, it's okay. Don't worry about it. I'll come help." Or "hey, don't worry about it, we'll get them next time."

The things you were saying was "you were really bad shyv." This is not helpful in any manner. Calling for reports against a specific player, again, not helpful. Calling for others to report a player is a punishable offense. It is a form of bullying and as such is against the summoner code. There's no need for you to call for reports." I got banned, 25 games, because i said to my oponent on mid "Stop asking for help from your jungle, you can lose mid alone", or "You are bad stop playing the game" OR EVEN WORST O M G "Deleted"...

But it gets worst, dont you dare to say someone that they've made a mistake, because according to Jenny.. "First things first, if you were that jungler and your upset because you're behind in jungle and your mid laner said to you "You never ganked bot, their jungle ganked 5 times already", how would you feel? Likely bad right?"

No, Jenny, i would feel like a piece of useless garbage because in 20 minutes i didn't do anything for my team.

So in resume, if you didnt know the following are punishable:

Calling others out is a punishable offense. Calling out "you are not helping the team" does nothing but creating dissension between the team and is not helpful. Also, yes, calling for others to report a player is a punishable offense. In the future, do mute them and just report them at the end of the match. (Note: Do not tell them you're muting or reporting them. That is a punishable offense). According to Jenny, the only thing you can say IN ALL THE MATCH IS: "You can however, say, "hey, it's okay. Don't worry about it. I'll come help." Or "hey, don't worry about it, we'll get them next time.""

Their politics are inhuman, against the human behaviour, and for the people that will tell me to stop crying, dont worry, i did, by asking for a complete DELETE in my 5 accounts 30+ in the game. Any opinions on this? I'm the only one that things that they are in fact, crazy, treating us like machines? ... thanks

There's a difference between experiencing an emotion and performing an action. You're free to get angry, frustrated, etc at the game. But like everywhere else in the world, you're held responsible for your actions.

It's not unreasonable for Riot to ask people to be civil.

The system does not punish for a single instance of lightly poor behavior. You either have to have a high frequency of poor behavior or high severity.

Opinions? Calling this "inhuman" is a bizarre overstatement. It's a fucking game.

You seem like you were deliberately argumentative to the point of inciting verbal conflict rather than improved results. Communication for the sake of teamwork is one thing, but needlessly berating your team is another. Chat is meant to communicate, not to be the recipient of your frustrations. You ARE allowed within reason to call out your teammates for their mistakes, but doing so excessively is harassment.

It's pretty easy to not get punished, in my experience. Mute and report trolls, shrug at shitty teammates if they won't listen to reason, and don't lose track of the central concept that this is a GAME. Not a livelihood, not a war. A game.

"Call them Out on their mistakes" is something is something along the Line of you fucked up, or you dies there, which doesnt help in ayn Way and is unnessesary. Something like, try to play more passive, or maybe try xy next time, is completly ok.

Freedom of speech is dying in the USA. Riot is an American company.

If you play an American game, you experience some American culture. Accept that, and get over it.

Yes, I am absolutely sure that people change their ways when some rando from the internet tells them what they are doing wrong.

Absolutely.

Thankfully you are there to tell us all our mistakes.
