I was playing with my friend and there was this bot lane who was very toxic the players names were <removed by moderation> and <removed by moderation> saying that Christians were brain dead and do not have a place on earth I feel very sadend by these actions and I hope the community can do something about this :)
TyrekGoldenspear7 votesNaming and shaming bro. Gotta edit that out.
Deep Terror Nami3 votesSorry you were having to deal with this, but the shaming of players on the boards isn't allowed per the Universal Rules so I've edited the names out. It's alright to discuss this sort of behavior and what you can do about it here, just as long as we're not name & shaming people. I do want to say that hate speech of any kind is not tolerated in this game and is punished severely, so your best course of action is to simply Mute and Report these people; Mute early so you don't have to listen to it any more than you have to, and Report in the post-game so Riot can take care of it.
If you have questions or concerns about this action please visit us in the PB&M channel of the Moderation Discord here.
La Belle Sauvage2 votesI am not a Christian, or do I believe in any religion. if I told you you are wrong for believing x religion, my saying so should mean very little, if you are confident in your faith and relationship to the diety you worship. If you don't believe me then follow up with your preist, preacher, or spiritual leader. Likewise, strangers over the internet should mean very little to you.
How did they now you were a Christian? It's understandable to be upset by the remark, their aim was to be mean; report them on after the game and move on. Consider using all mute in future games.
Naming and shaming is against the board rules and beneath all of us.
Shahamut2 votesAs a fellow Christian, let me assure you that we in fact do not have a place on this earth. We are, in fact, sojerners, and the world has placed itself in opposition to the Father. Keep your head up, and your eyes fixed ahead. Don't sweat stuff like this.
Azure Hamster2 votesI'm an atheist, but I don't go around insulting Christians (or people of other religions). There's just no reason for that; people are people. Sorry those people were being dorks to you. :(
ZT Xperimentor1 votesSad isn't it? Non-Christians claim we should be more accepting of other religions, but are hypocritical in that they go out of their way to bash us. Don't give up man, Jesus be coming back soon!
Vęrtęx3 votesLol dude calm down it was just dudes being toxic because they were tilted. It's not that deep.
ZT Xperimentor1 votesYou'd be surprised, a friend of mine was harassed in game for mentioning being of Jewish decent. And yes he sent the replay with his report after the match.

It's called a hook. He could have said anything that isn't cis white male and they would have bashed him on it. And thats just because the norm is hard to bash and probably they are it themselves.
ZT Xperimentor1 votesNot really, I was watching over his shoulder at the time, he was chatting with one of the other players about how people from drastically different cultures can enjoy gaming together; the teammate had butted into the conversation aggressively.
Xidphel1 votesBecause they were toxic. Again, nothing to do with your friend's beliefs.
ZT Xperimentor1 votesI didn't say beliefs, I said nationality. My point is you'll be surprised how petty some people are.
TheSequelsRBad1 votesI am just curious, but how did your religious beliefs come up in a League game?
I mean, I am a Christian as well, and I can't remember mentioning it in a game ever. I have no objection to it, but it has never really come up.
Shahamut1 votesOnly comes up for me with people that I have playing with for a while:-)
I see"religious" slurs and insults semi frequently though. I just ignore it.
