Bad Teammates Banning Your Champion

Jungle Pennywise·11/27/2018, 6:46:15 AM·2 votes·2,866 views

In the gaming community, there are two types of toxic people. First is the "assholes", the people who intentionally make the game unfun or intentionally try to ruin the game for everyone involved by saying or doing stupid things. The second is what I like to call the "robin hoods" of toxic players. These are toxic players who only become toxic when faced with assholes and the brunt of their aggression is directed toward the asshole in question.

If you ban the champion either myself or a teammate hovers, I will instantly lock in Nunu and proceed to snowball down mid until the game is over. If you are that bad of a sport that you don't like what your team mates are playing, then dodge. Otherwise, enjoy the -20.

This wouldn't be a problem if the former type of toxic player were ever the one actually banned, however. Assholes never get banned for reasons only known to Riot. The only accounts banned are those who attempt vigilante, if petty, justice against the player being the asshole. You'll ban my account when I run it down mid 30 times to auto lose the game to teach the bad sport of a player on my team a lesson about respecting his teammates, but you've never in the history of the game once banned the asshole who started the whole situation in the first place.

You guys know why League is the most toxic gaming community in the world? Because Riot's policy is to not ban assholes, and instead ban the people trying to deal with them since Riot clearly won't.

Getting my accounts banned doesn't hurt my feelings one bit, but you're wasting your time by targeting players like me instead of actually addressing the mechanics that allow a single player to ruin the entire game for 9 others.

Start banning these "passively toxic" assholes and I'll stop going 2-45 on Nunu and throwing people's promos.

Oh, really? Are you trying to make some kind of point here? That you're so stupid that you'll get yourself banned to "Teach someone else a lesson?" Wah, they have to lose a game to make you lose an account? That's worth all day and so not a waste of time. Enjoy leveling back to 30 every time you employ your stupidity approach to policing.

Not like I entered that game with intention to lose, right? But you even joined my forces and we are 2, sometimes even 3 with guy I banned his champ. You have to understand that you aren't doing God's work, but you are just doing exectly what I, troll, wants you to do. It is actually rly funny to encounter these white warriors, like "You are the asshole, prepare for punisment, in form of exectly what you are planning to do". I mean keep it up, it is just spicing up my way back to gold.

Don't forget to post an angry rant about getting unfairly permabanned for doing nothing wrong at all. It's more hilarious if you include pleas for your account to be unbanned, though that's just my suggestion, I wouldn't limit your creativity by forcing your hand about the details.

If you are that bad of a sport that you don't like what your team mates are playing, then dodge. Otherwise, enjoy the -20.

There is exactly 1 legit reason to ban a teammate's champ. Since you provided no details on what happened to trigger this lovely post we can't know if it applied. If it did, then it was not on the other guy to dodge.

You have a warped notion of justice, my friend. Dicking over 4 other players because one of them huwt your wittle feewings is just trolling.

You'll ban my account when I run it down mid 30 times to auto lose the game to teach the bad sport of a player on my team a lesson about respecting his teammates, but you've never in the history of the game once banned the asshole who started the whole situation in the first place.

Oh, wait, this is the rant I asked for. Jeez, make it more obvious from the start, 30% of the entertainment value is lost this way... And yeah, in this case they banned the guy who started it, namely little old you.

Because you're involved in the community?

Because Riot's policy is to not ban assholes, and instead ban the people trying to deal with them since Riot clearly won't.

Oh, rethorical question... my bad. No, trolling is not "dealing with assholes", it's being a colossal one yourself. Seriously, your level of self awareness is in the negatives. It's hilarious.

Getting my accounts banned doesn't hurt my feelings one bit, but you're wasting your time by targeting players like me instead of actually addressing the mechanics that allow a single player to ruin the entire game for 9 others.

Yeah, you're calm and collected, hence this foaming mouth, red eyed, steaming rant of calm and collected fury. :D

No, you stopped trolling as of the time of the ban, at least on the banned account. And the more you troll the more accounts will go the same way. Don't forget to post for each and every one, it makes peoples' days. And btw, I changed my mind, I do want you to include begging for your account back, it's sort of a staple with the best of these kinds of posts.

Hi. I'd take your Nunu over having a Yasuo. Thank you.

But What if the whole point of them banning your champ is to increase the likelihood of losing? A lot of people do this intentionally to tank accounts and then play it off like the ban was an accident. You've probably already played right into several peoples hands by doing this. You're just a darn fool getting played over and over.

Oh, those aren't "Robin Hoods". Those are Toddlers. They don't look at the bigger picture to see that 3 people did nothing to them and that they're no worse off than if the enemy banned it. Instead they're so focused on one minor problem (it was someone on MY team that banned the champ!) that they decide to throw a tantrum about it.

Robin Hood tried to help people. Trolling games like that helps no one.

There was a big discussion on this not too long ago. It seems that overall hover ban is frawned upon, but those that does it will defend until world end to justify their action. It sucks. Sometimes I put up with it when it's not that important for me to play my hover.

Other times I don't feel like putting up with these self centered picks that thinks they can make a decision for me because they know better so I DODGE. Not a thing they can do to stop me from not playing with them. It's very satisfying.

inb4 downvotes and people coming to tell you that getting your vengeance on the troll isn't fair to your other 3 teammates and to let Riot deal with the punishments.
