A solution to the KYS problem

Fructivore·5/13/2017, 5:05:01 AM·3 votes·767 views

Riot makes KYS an instant punish because of fear that the weak-minded people who play this game might read that and actually kill themselves. But if Riot thinks people are so suggestible they should put in an instant find and replace function into the chat so "KYS" is translated to "buy some skins."

That way, no one kills themselves, Riot sells a lot more skins, and no one has to get banned.

Sit back. And say to yourself, out loud, 'I just told a person I don't know to kill themself.'

If you don't feel a little bit of shame, you aren't mature enough to play League.

Wrong.

Riot makey KYS an instant punish, because no one wants to play with toxic morons, and we like to see them cry over losing their accounts.

Why is it that everyone with this cute poro in a box icon is an internet troll? [slayer-jinx-unamused]

Brilliant! I mean, skins mean skills. Therefore buying skins means getting skills with a champ downloaded in your brain and people with skills are less likely to be targeted by kys!

Or we could just stop placating the pussies that play and ruin the game. I would rather be told to KYS 9 times a game than deal with one more fucking feeder to troll.

This is why this community drives me insane sometimes...

Community: "Toxicity is out of control, people telling each other to kill themselves and whatnot, it's disgusting"

OP writes post: "Let's make KYS an instant punish"

Community Downvotes idea

Community: "Toxicity is out of control, people telling each other to kill themselves and whatnot, it's disgusting, I wish we could come up with solutions..."

It's a bit bizarre.

Or add it to the censored chat. What you propose involves advertising in-game, and apart from seeing others' skins and icons, that doesn't happen.

I'd also say that is a potential conflict of interest: is it better for the community vs more profitable for the company.

People also have the freedom to say what they will in a game, and this also takes away from that. If they can't be toxic by using "KYS" then they'll likely just find a different way.

I actually like this idea, would be quite entertaining.
