Toxicity

Doschy·4/3/2018, 11:00:26 AM·7 votes·577 views

I just recently got banned [Permanently] for being toxic. Now, I do not disagree with that. I actually think it is well deserved. I am not here to argue over why this is unfair or anything.

I would like to ask if I am allowed to make a new account and start from scratch after a little break from the game. However perhaps I should never ever return considering I got a permanent ban. I would like to start from scratch with absolutely no toxicity. Instead of joining arguments, I will just simply use the "mute" button.

I have learned several lessons by this:

      1) Toxicity solves nothing. There is no point in blaming other people for their mistakes. Instead I should focus on encouraging them to play better with helpful tips and advice if I can. Being toxic towards people ONLY makes things worse. They will perform worse, something you definitely do not want if you are trying to win. Instead come with constructive criticism. Not only telling them WHAT they are doing wrong and HOW to do it right, but instead try to explain WHY.

      2) It is always MY fault. Yes, if I play ADC and I die, it is MY fault for poor positioning, not any teammates fault for not peeling. If I die due to for example the enemy midlaner roaming top, it is not my midlaners fault for not pinging SS or not following. I have a map, and I should be able to look at it and know if the enemy midlaner is missing or not.

      3) Play for fun. Personally I only played normal games. If you tryhard, does not matter if you playing normal or ranked, you get easily tilted if you lose. If you play for fun, and purely for fun, you will not care if you lose or not. Obviously, I will not queue up purely to intentionally lose, but i'd say try to enjoy your games. For example play some off-meta things, like full AD jarvan, or AP malphite, or something along those lines. You are not expecting to win, but you are expecting to have a good time!

      4) Use the mute button. The only reason I am toxic is when someone is toxic to me first. However I tend to take it way too far. That is an issue. An issue which can be EASILY fixed with the mute button.

That is what I have learned through this. So please, can i TRY to start from scratch with a new account? I promise to never be toxic ever again.

Sincerely, Doschy.

To answer your initial question (Can I start afresh on a new account?), yes, you can. While the Permanent Ban is, essentially, Riot's way of saying "Your behavior has reached a point where we can no longer have you in our community, please leave", there's no way they have to rightly stop you from making a new account - whether to continue misbehavior, or, in your case, start over with lessons learned.

So, short version; yeah, you can come back with a new account. The permaban is meant to turn you away, but you're still welcome to start anew.

As for the things you've learned, I personally agree on 1, 3, and 4 - number 2, however, less-so. I think, for point number 2, your takeaway shouldn't be that it's always your fault, but more that you should try to understand or look for where it is or might be your fault. Knowing when it is or might be your teammate's fault plays somewhat into point 1 - as understanding what they did wrong (or what you did wrong, for that matter) can require skills in constructive criticism to relay to the team and try to improve things next time around.

Whatever you choose, and whatever you take away from this, I hope you enjoy your break, however long it may be, and I hope League finds you returning in good spirits if/when you do.

You aren't ever going to get ur account back bro. Either learn ur lesson and start from scratch or continue being toxic and get banned. If u do the second option I'd recommend not spending any money on an acct.

Toxicity will always be a part of the game, there is no point in trying to fix it... Oh, someone offended you in a GAME? mute him. People always forget that there is a difference between REAL LIFE and GAMES.
