I just got Chat restricted...

So I know I have been probably one of the worst offenders when it comes to chat toxicity in ranked and normal games. I have really wanted to improve but it just seems that no matter how hard I try I end up coming back to the toxicity that is chat. One of the problems I feel is the chat itself. It allows people ( like myself) to feel like they have immunity to any type of consequences because they are behind a shade of wires and code. I've always wanted Riot to implement an option to turn off chat completely. At least so I can't type back, I would still want to see the chat but would want an option that doesn't allow me to type back. I know at least for me i would use this because i just hate having that temptation to type back to some people that get on my nerves. I would really appreciate it if a riot employee or anyone at riot has had this idea? I would like to improve but I think that riot should also implement options to help those that really want to improve.

Thank You,

The Charmz

Say it out loud instead. EVERYBODY, even the most positive members of the community, gets pissed off when their teammates feed (intentionally or not). The difference is whether you choose to type it into the chat box.

suggested this so many times. Make a button that blocks people from seeing what you type Useful for when im fucking around with friends, and butthurt people that have no social life whatsoever won't report you for being playful with your own friends.

Just don't type. Mute the toxic individuals. You could just rage out loud instead of rage on chat. Just don't Stream and rage cause you could get banned several times like hotshotgg did....Even though he never raged on the chat bar.

You can get by a few times with a few sarcastic or bitchy comments as long as you don't over board. Just don't make it a habbit in every game. I find talking to other people on skype or at my house easier to prevent my keyboard rage while the game is going on.

Just try to think consciously before typing, "Do I want to say this?"

Try not to type impulsively; sometimes you might find raging aloud helpful.

If you have a duo partner of friend who can play with you, you can ask him to tell you to stop if you start to rage. I think the pro player ocelote used this when training himself not to rage.
