Stuck in a Game with a Troll

R3D Bandit··1 votes·765 views

And now i am forced to support someone who took Ahri bottom because she did not believe in Taliyah ADC. And she openly said she trolled because I picked Taliyah. I have no recourse but to waste 20 minutes of my life and hope we surrender. Thanks for not giving me the tools to deal with a troll.

What would you like to deal with a troll then?

I should be able to leave the game freely, along with my other teammates, so we can actually go play a real game. All it would take is the team to agree that she took my role, she gets banned, and we go our merry ways.

Fun follow up though: when we were actually winning and pushing to win the game, she AFK'd.

The problem with that is, it would be really easy to abuse. Someone went 0/2 in lane? Well they're trolling, better leave the game. Game going badly? Just have one of your friends on a smurf leave the game so you don't lose LP.

While something needs to be done for the situation that you were in, just being able to straight up just leave the game is not the answer.

I didn't ask to boot a player. If someone takes your role, you could start a one time vote at the beginning of the game, the team votes whether or not they did steal the role, and it could all be over. If a pre-made helps the person who is stealing the role by not voting for them, then we end up right where we are now when they get reported at the end of the game.

no, it isn't easy to 'abuse' leaving. leaving is not an act of abuse unless you're a deadbeat parent. your teammates in lol aren't dependents that rely on basic means of survival from you staying in the game. the whole crux and the problem with riot's moderation is they're trying to dictate behavior outside of the game, ie: quitting. riot can't create better methods to handle somebody being trapped in a game with trolls except to ban the person that's being trolled. that's the level of oddity with this player moderation system that i've never seen it's like in any previous game i've played and hope to never see it's like again. it's the opposite of justice, it's inhumane. it forces people to endure abuse, not the other way around.

Context is the key thing you are missing here. I am in no way saying that I am going to be traumatized by someone trolling in my game or leaving the game etc. The system can be easily abused.

If you read my other comments, you'll see that I said something needs to be done, but just being able to leave a game would be a bad idea.

wow i dont get it you picked an ap mid Taliyah into the adc roll WHY?

R3D Bandit1 votes

I've played it several times already with pretty good success. Her AP scaling is pretty bad but her base damages are pretty good. This makes her similar to the old style ADC's when I started playing this game. There is no reason that she could not work.

alright have fun with that but dont expect to ever be able to play that without being called a troll Have a wonderful day BYE

This is the same attitude as to why I got trolled and the community will feel it is appropriate.

you remember back in S2 when TF adc was huge where is it now in the gutter like kennen adc there is a reason adc's are the champs they are sadly thats the kind of game this is without an adc the team lacks ranged abilities that scale off of AD not some poke that falls off after a few levels because base damage isnt enough if you want to do an AD taliah so bad then jsut take her top and walk over the people who dont think to check if ur ad or not

Not worth responding to this anymore. It is still the exact same attitude I am talking about.

You are saying that what YOU find acceptable for a role is the only thing that goes. What I find acceptable for a role is void because you are right. You were right when you said "bye".

That's just how people are. Retarded isn't it? League allows and even enforces creative gameplay, but you've to deal with it whether you like it or not.

If you like it: People will be abusive in chat 90% of time cause they say you're breaking their rule. If you don't: You'll get troll 90% of the time cause people who do what you did are indeed trolls.

There is no winning with going against popular belief. Bad players ruin everything.
