I think it's important to note that I am a player that has been now permanently banned still willing to provide support in a community that seems to be not only volatile but forgets that we are all people trying to enjoy game now what kind of game did it start at is what was the game that was offered to us as a community when I bought the game that means purchased it was presented to us as a game of competitiveness that means season 0 so how does this impact us today well I would say that League of Legends has completely forgotten what it is offered us as a community and how does it continue to offer us new found results that are nothing but a disappointment to the community let's go along the lines of punishment when you report somebody is there any follow-up with the players that feel wrong grief stolen from their time any joy that they have gotten from the game left from most of your games as a simple frustration of loss at their loss not from one's own shortcomings which I'm sure is a factor but from of the Geordie the time from a person who doesn't care being in a ranked game if they win or lose if they can feel like they've changed all of your joy or robbed you of all your joy so League of Legends needs to decide something within their game mechanics they've offered a mute system which a lot of the results you can actually pull up from anything positive from the game is muting everybody in your team except for the Ping function so you can't get banned you can actually play their game so League of Legends needs to pick one of two Avenues there competitive in the competitive area and they accept all chats regardless of how mean they are or they choose to remove the chat system where if you wish to chat to somebody who you've become friends with because you respect their playing you can talk to you either are going to moderate everything or not so in my discourse or summary of what needs to happen League of Legends needs to pick there are competitive game and they're not if you're offering competitive play style it doesn't mean you can get along with somebody who's just not up to that part how can you reassure us that we're not going to get penalized for leaving a game because you have no compensation for a person who has to waste 15-20 minutes an hour of their day with people who don't want to win what's reality this is something to eat face and what is the answer that they can give to this discourse do they have one do they want to form one because their own Banning system and penalizing system has made the community so volatile and toxic that it's almost impossible at this point to fix the problem I look forward to anybody who has a proper solution beyond what I've just offered thank you and I look forward to your reply

Ugh...

While I can feel some passion in this post, the lack of punctuation and that block of text makes the post impossible to read.

Can you reformat it into a readable version?

Oh dear lord, this is literally one run-on sentence.

So, the gist I’m getting is that you are mad when you are mad at the state of a game you’re currently in. There’s some things I’d like you to consider and provide your opinion on:

  • How do you define someone “playing to win” or “not trying enough”?
  • How do you decide who is the “captain” - i.e. who gets to make the decisions for the others on their team?
  • If you do not have a “captain”, how do you reconcile players having legitimate disagreements with your desire to see people “not playing to win” punished? How do you handle when two different players have different ideas of how “to win”?
  • Why does it have to be a dichotomy? Rude, flaming chat has absolutely no place - it doesn’t matter if it’s “a competitive game”, flaming your teammates doesn’t help you win - so by your claim that people who aren’t playing to win should be punished, people who are flaming should be punished as well.
  • You cannot say everything with pings - thus why chat is necessary.
  • When did a “competitive” style be defined as being a jackass? Name one other sport in which players are allowed to flame each other on their team without getting punished/sanctioned by their team/the governing body?
  • Again, who defines “people who don’t want to win” in order to provide compensation? Is it when they don’t listen to you? Is it when they fall off because they’re getting tilted? What if they got tilted and played worse because you flamed them - wouldn’t it be your fault then?

I look forward to your responses.
