Nobody follows these, it just makes no sense to.
Why would you support our team when our the rest of your team isn't?
Why would you drive constructive feedback when it's just going to be interpreted as flaming?
Why would you even try to make civil discussion when your team just flames you and laughs at you?
Why would you care about enjoying yourself if people pick troll lanes, and cost you the game, but it's not reportable?
People do build relationships, but there's a ton of people out there, and a lot of shit to wade through before you get anything close to a person you would want to talk to
Nobody shows proper sportsmanship, on either side of the field. Players have to experience 'ggez' from lv 1 to lv 30 and there's this expectation to be sportsmanlike suddenly?
Players just plain don't follow rules 7 or 8 flat out. Nobody cares if they're playing with a newbie. I've played with friends and gotten flamed so hard I thought I was
.
There are a few players who listen in game, but the vast majority do not want to listen to criticism and it is readily shown in the boards and in game, which brings me to my most important point.
Why, oh why on this ball of crap that is earth would we lead by example when there is no reason to? If you're asking us to |lead by example| you're asking us to give players a good face for league and a good experience. I want that. I want to be a part of that.
But why would I when basically every other rule is broken by others and yet Riot fails to do the basic job of moderating off the basis of your own EULA? Why would I care more about the rules Riot laid down than Riot themselves?
You can say that it's tough to look at any one game or player and make a judgment based off that, but if Riot actually backed up what their EULA suggested, we wouldn't have this massively toxic community.
