A new wave of absolute defeatism

There are players joining games now just to not do anything. They'll active AFK in the fountain and complain about how impossible and overpowered and worthless everything is and how much this game sucks. They are bogging down this game, wasting their time as well as everyone else's, and destroying what little stability we think we have.

Riot, you seriously need to crack down on these people. Ban them permanently from this realm of existence; do not tolerate them for even a microsecond.

I felt that way yesterday after I couldn't climb with Leona or Janna in Silver. Not sure if I'm bad because I'm being shit on every game by kids.

I used to be able to climb.

It's a shame riot clamped down on toxic chat for the stupid hextek chests cause it really amped up the passive toxic gameplay. It's like they didn't learn at all from when you could be chat banned. The chat banned people just trolled every game.

Honestly, I think the best way to do this is to improve their game. The state of degradation that's hit this game over the last three years has a lot of longtime fans so upset they've resorted to this nonsense. Their behavior isn't excusable, but if the game were simply fun again, it would probably curb a lot of this.

Ya it might be that Riot went down the wrong path with policing language in games. It's like taunting assholes who don't agree with it. Making them find other ways to troll just to almost protest the fact that they baby people. Like "I'll show them"... I think it's probably too late at this point. If they got rid of punishments for toxicity I bet for a while people would go crazy but maybe it'd die down after a while when they realize nobody cares... however there's always gonna be super sensitive people that do care so it probably wouldn't go away. I don't know a solution, and I didn't play this game back "when it was fun". I've always thought the game is fun since I started a couple years ago.
