I'm writing this post because I just encountered a match I've experienced one too many times, and it needs to be made to protect myself and give my full side of the story.

I just played a vayne game, and I started off pretty well. I was 1/0/1 and was doing just fine.

But, for the entire length of this game, I was constantly pinged by my jungler. Not only was he constantly pinging me, for every cannon wave, he would come and burst the whole thing and then flash his mastery 6 and leave while pinging question mark the whole time. (he was graves and i was vayne so naturally i had no chance contesting cs)

This whole time I shut my mouth and did my thing, and I was doing a good job of keeping my cool too, but after 10 minutes of excessive harassment, i deemed it damn necessary to say something back. (he was muted since minute 1, but i can't mute mastery 6 spams and missing ping spams and him taking all the lane cs on purpose)

Of course after i finally responded and he knew I was heated, that was officially the end of the match, and where he completely struck my vulnerability as he hadn't directly said anything that match, but i did, so if you only look at the chat logs (flawed) it just looks like im the bad guy. he was extremely, extremely toxic for no reason. as he came to my lane to constantly take everything, bait us into fights by constantly pinging going forward and then flashing out, and of course spamming the missing ping on me all game, he knew i was either going to say things back and get in trouble, or have to just deal with it. mmm, justice.

Note, I'm coming off a 2 week ban for toxic behavior and I'm doing my best to reform. I have anger issues, I do what i can to deal with them, and I don't want to lose this account.

But I just exploded.

I coudln't take it anymore and i spouted ONE sentence of profanity towards this graves.

**i'm sorry, and I take full responsibility for what i said, but riot if I get perm banned for this I honestly... I don't even have a response. I pour everything I can into this game and I'm sorry I get overly upset because 8/10 of my games are filled with people that don't care about winning and don't respect me or anything I try to do progressively for the team. yes i say mean things, but I never AFK on purpose, i never intentionally feed and I never stop cooperating with my team out of spite to prove a point. I just gotta let it out through words so i do. listen this game means almost everything to me. i play it every day with every intention of getting better and I want my future to revolve around this game. Ive met some incredible people and it's molded my life drastically. **

It's just a perfect storm whenever you have people that want to constantly agitate(trolls) and someone who is vulnerable to extreme agitation.

I'm sorry I get worked up. I'm sorry i have a problem that makes me get mad a little easier than others. i'm sorry i know I shouldn't do it, it is AGAINST THE RULES and I'm trying my hardest every day to fix it. it doesn't just affect me on this game, it affects other games as well as my day to day life, and I just hope you guys can understand that some people have a lot going on outside this game.

you have a lot of toxicity that flies right under the radar, and i think that graves ruining the entire match for 3 innocent players (exclude me) over nothing is unbelievable to tolerate compared to me saying a few mean things. At least you can shut me up with the push of a button.

i guess thats all thanks.

I'm sorry you have to experience stuff like this. I blow my top too.

Listen to some Beethoven and Lindsey Stirling, close your eyes for a few seconds, let the music sink in and fall into a sweet, sweet mellow tone. Just remember, you HAVE to do it before you blow your top. Every. Single. Time.

As far as i know you can lower the sound of the ping so im not sure why you didnt do that if someone is abusing that. it sucks about the other things that happen but there is nothing we can do to prevent it. Everything he did was reportable so i really hope you reported him for his actions. Also not quite sure but im certain Vayne can contest cs with a Graves especially with his rework and having the need to reload!

Also something i dont quite understand was that you take responsibility, but then say you shouldn't get permaban. Those two contradict itself as you are basically saying you dont take responsibility for your actions if you cannot accept the consequences for your actions. Especially you coming off of a 2 week ban you are on the last straw and anything reportable will get you to the next tier in punishment which is a permaban.

You are under the impression that trolling compared to toxicity in chat are easy to find. it's not. Toxicity in chat is so simple to find. Look at the chat and its right there. With trolling (in this case of the Graves) they would need to actually look at the game and review it in order to come to an understanding of what he did. that takes much more time (especially when you take into account that they would have to do this for every single reported incident) than just looking at the chatlogs.

No one is faulting you as everyone is human, there is just a better way to control your emotions. People do these types of things to get a reaction out of you. You can just ignore them, mute them and eventually theyll stop (or get to the point that they are ban) because it will get boring to them. Once they get any type of reaction from you they will continue to do so to get even more. This is why you should never give in to them. Even before you said anything to them their actions are already reportable so you already have the upperhand, but once you start acknowledging them they have just as much power as you do in some cases even more since using chat is easily identified and punished faster than trolling!
