Be that guy who encourages his teammates during a rough match. Be that guy who apologizes for making bad plays and bad calls, and doesn't blame someone else for it. Be that guy who commends his enemies for making good plays, but says nothing when they make bad plays. Be that guy who painstakingly buys a Vision Ward when nobody else would. Be that guy who refrains from responding to toxic teammates with an insult. Be that guy who thanks a good teammate for carrying them. Be that guy who humbly carries a team without saying a word. Be that guy who remains humble, sportsmanlike, and kind even during the worst of matches. Be that guy who doesn't argue during the post game lobby, Be that guy who always types, "gg" after a match and mean it.

Be that guy who mutes everyone because of the awful things they say to you while chanting "sticks and stones" as you slowly lock yourself away from society and the ones you love only to find that it hurts more in the end.

OR

Be that guy who responds to hatred with more hatred creating a never-ending cycle of hatred where the first person who caves loses because they couldn't keep up the senseless hatred of someone who has no involvement with your actual life.

OR

Be that guy that doesn't play because you realize that even though you like something you can't have it your way when the world sees it in a different view.

those options all suck. i call for a remake.

Be that guy who gets called a %%%got because apologizes for feeding. Be that guy who begs for a gank and gets insulted by his own jungler for feeding. Be that guy who tries to motivates his team, yet all he gets is "shut up" "stfu" and "get cancer".

That's me pretty much. I don't have teammates that appreciate my efforts and that's why I like to stay quiet.

We've all been there. At one point, it's gotten so bad for me, that the second I join a match, I just type, "/all glhf" and immediately follow it with a "/mute all". Now, I just mute the enemy team and only talk whenever I want to make a good call or offer a suggestion. I rarely have to deal with any toxicity because of it, but every once and a while, I do have that one really toxic player.

Rito are no longer giving out ribbins.. how I know? Last 300 games I played I seen only 1 guy with a red ribbin... so sad.

Red ribbon is rare because the enemy rarely honors an enemy player, even more so when they lose - the salt is too strong.

Having said that, I've had a red ribbon more than once. I eventually lost it I am now sitting on a green one.

Congratz on the green one.. its better then red. I used to have the yellow ribbin but didn't get honored enough to keep it even tho i was highly sportmanlike. The system rito has for getting ribbins is hella flawed. What also help is that you have no rank and people that are new believe a little more in the honor system but me being in gold 1 im so beyond SOL because everyone lost faith in honoring lol

Not xPeke1 votes

I agree. People just don't honor enough I guess, either because they're lazy or they just don't care.

Which is a shame. On the other hand I honor A LOT, to the point that sometimes a message comes up and says I can't honor someone haha.

But if someone is somewhere in between I'd think it would be better for the game.

nah i was the complete opposite (although i did thank for getting carried) , thats why i got permabanned tho. use me as an example of what u shouldnt do :D

Weathered2 votes

I'm sorry but when a person acts so cheerful and nice that it almost looks fake I get a vibe that they got banned recently.

I appreciate "gj" and the like but when a person is extensively nice to the point where its awkward it gets a little sarcastic.

so any kind of overly good chatter is creepy, just like any kind of hateful derogatory stuff is bad too.

so, what were people like in the golden days?

"nj" to someone who did a good job

"lmao" about a funny and mistaken play - and showed that they didn't take it seriously by getting on with the match

"he made a mistake" to defend his teammate when the other teammates get caustic on his ass with "troll!! feeder! report!!" like the spitter dinosaurs from jurassic park yet it's obvious the guy is trying to win and just fucked up

not too fake, not too cheerful, not to negative, not to positive ... juuuuust right

what's it amount to? people made themselves calm instead of just pretending like they were calm. they let themselves like their teammate instead of just thinking, "how can i manipulate my teammates with my words so that they'll win for me?"

That's fine if you're matched against actual people...

Be that guy who creates a safe-zone for feeding teammates rather than calling them boosted. They already are tilting themselves. No need for a team to do it to them as well.

I was that guy, but frankly it's just not worth it. Now I just make memes in the chat and laugh at everyone when they make a mistake.

Be that guy that not only apologises for his mistakes, but also admits when he's wrong if being told so.

Solari Fortune1 votes

the thing is nowadays if you say ANYTHING be it the most helpful shit in the world or the kindest thing you ever said, someone is going to think you are being toxic and entirely over react to it

Wimbledofy1 votes

Nah when an enemy makes a bad play, you gotta make some kind of joke about it. But not a mean one.

Immortal spax1 votes

Be that guy that even before he bought the starter items, he already muted all.

If you win, ok, if you lose, report the feeder of your team, if you are the feeder, report the jungler and the support.
