I've been banned for being toxic and I learned my lesson but these people who intentionally run it down and are toxic in chat; and only goal is to tilt the team is at an all time high. I was platinum last season and I got placed b3 this season even though I won 7 out of 10 of my Provisionals. The climb is so frustrutaing because people don't have teamwork but instead flame the out of each other. Maybe we need to come together as a gaming community instead of putting each other down. Some people will say I'm saying this bc I main support but I think this would be great.

I totally agree. Just recently I played a game where I had a bad start. I didn't say a thing to anyone all game but I was trying my best to do what I think needed to be done. We had a Draven AD carry and he decided to it was a good idea get on my case and tell me how bad I was. So I threw the game. I made sure that our team lost the game despite it being very winnable. It was a dick thing to do but at that time I just didn't care.

Point is, people respond negatively to negative attitudes. If that Draven had been a little less of a %%%%, I'm sure I would have carried that game. I don't care what anyone says, words are a very powerful thing, powerful enough to decide the outcome of a match.

Point is you are dumb the client includes a mute button.. If you make 3 other people lose the game because someone is flaming you because you re actually playing like shit then you are indeed dumb my freind.

The grammar needs to be seriously looked at.
You can mute pings? Since when?

You mistake me friend. You seem to think I give a flying fuck about strangers I meet online in a video game. If you want to win, fine, I will try to make that happen as best I can. If you want to be a total asshole to me because I don't meet your standards, guess what, we can both be assholes. I just don't give a fuck. It was fun watching him rage and I didn't care about the loss. He should have kept his mouth shut if he couldn't say something positive or encouraging.

Some days I will mute people, some days I will fire back and some days I would just troll the game just to provoke flamers. Call me dumb all you want mate but understand this, I just don't care what you or anyone else thinks. This community is very harsh and toxic. League players are not a friendly bunch so I don't care how it makes anyone feel when I'm being an asshole. If you don't want me to act like an asshole, don't provoke me. It's really that simple.

mute all is perfect for anything below diamond because almost nothing they have to say is good or constructive

It's because playing with people who are so horrifically bad is just excruciatingly frustrating. It's maddening to watch an adc be incapable of cs. It's mindblowing to watch the mid go 0/15 by minute 10. It's disheartening to be 9/1/4 and lose because the other four people on your team went a collective 2/37/12... that's right... they got 2 kills off of me... and all their assists were off me... and I constantly helped each lane... constantly did everything I could.

Why wouldn't people vent their frustrations at each other? Be it in positive or negative ways. It would be socially impossible for someone not to respond. It's like you're in a 5 man class. You do A+ work; the rest of the class or one person gets a D- or F. And you're forced to accept their grade because it's a "team class". No one who worked for the A+ or even thought they did would be understanding of that scenario... no one. Zen Taoist Monks with 18 years of silence under their belt would rage over that shit.
