Banned for staring at another player.
I feel like people who say that don't play sports at all or even watch them because you can get fined and punished for unsportsmanlike conduct all the time.
Most of the comments on that thread with thousands of upvotes are stating how it's bull shit players got banned for staring
Sounds reasonable Like the warning against ROX
Yeah. It’s an e-sport, like Counterstrike or Starcraft, and players are expected to be sportsmen.
It's literally making the game more toxic, players know now that they'll be penalized even for mildly talking in the chat apparently if too much of it is directed at one player, yet if they int the whole game they'll get literally no punishment whatsoever while anybody who got rage baited in chat gets penalized immediately. That's the chain of events that happens in most matches now, especially when leveling. Well done, Riot.
Imagine being so bad at conceptualizing a system to reduce toxicity that you end up ramping it up and giving even more impact to the toxic trolls that have always plagued this game. Get your priorities straight, Riot.
I have a huge problem with them punishing for chat.
We are playing domino's and we shit talk each-other, I think that's part of the game, not banable, unless you say some really off the wall shit. Now, one of the four players is cheating or causing the game to go in the favor of another player, kick their ass out of the game.
Reads first comment on thread. Other player and announcer can't believe it. Yup, sounds about right. I also think it is dumb. :)
My father used to play in the nhl and it was EXPECTED for him to trash talk and be toxic to other players. Yet in an online video game we can’t. Smh

Was Derrick Rose instantly suspended for two weeks? Were any rewards he may win this Season taken away?
Hey. Staring can be very dangerous.
