A sincerely request to all players!
Hi guys
This might sound like an "emotional" mumbo jumbo but maybe its kind of:)
I am "old", maybe "double" of the age of many regular LOL players. But its a fun game, so i keep coming back for playing it. I have a stressful day and when i get 1-2 hours i like to invest that time in this game.
So here it goes :
When everything is locked down in champ select, we all use around 30-35 min per game of LOL (on average). Before queuing up back on a ranked game. Lets say a player play 2-3 games average per day. He or she will use around 1 to 1 h and 30 min of his/her day on this game.
So i think this is the feeling for many of the players (it is for me) when your in loading screen you just hope to god that it isnt any troll or player who is a potentially feeder in game. Cause lets be real, You have "devoted" the next 30-35 min on average of your life to this particular game no matter how it ends up. And honestly i dont think that the majority will risk AFK to get reported. Even when i see its a troll playing in a game, i never afk due to respect for my 3 other fellow teammates who also have invested the equal share of the time for winning the game. Never!
Just to point it :
> I am NOT talking about players who try their best but end up "feeding" a bit because the enemy laner is better or they end up feeding because of other reasons. And due to that we lose. > I am talking about those players who refuse to communicate with jungler/team when their enemy laner is better/stronger or they just wander alone solo not playing as a team to end up feeding.
The thing i am requesting for all players to think of is that ALL of us in a game, and i am talking about all 10 players will devote the equal share amount of the time in that game. Loading screen is a reminder for me like "M8, your next 30 min of the life will be here, so try to enjoy it, cause you will never get those 30 min back".....:)
The thing that pisses the me off the most isnt the loss (i have had many games, where my team lost, but we had a splended good time with good communication, backing up the lanes for each other, even if players make mistakes we encourage each other. At the end we lose. BUT the my feeling after the game is very good (not that i love losing) but because we felt we tried our best and we lost cause we played against a better team. I dont get angry cause of flamers, or people just talking trash (we have a mute button for that), but i get irritated when we get players who has 0 communication, or 0 communicatuion + flame. And it isnt the lack of the communication and feed that pisses me off. The thing that pisses me the most is that i will "never" get those 30min of my life back. You get some speartime, and you think "ah lets just have fun with 1-2 games", the game starts and one hour later your stripped for that "fun" feeling, and sit there alone and yell some curse words, and get on with your life or next game hoping to catch that good feeling:)
So my request to all players reading this is this. Think about all the amount of hours all of us use in this game, many of the hours many actually use to watch youtube/twitch to get in a ranked game to actually rank up. They set a goal before a season to get to Silver/Gold/Plat or whatever. And what happens, you get 1 player who destroys teh whole game for 4 others. respect your time and your fellow teams time. Time is the ONLY thing you will never get back, but you can always rank up or down.
I am NOT saying its not allowed to go in with your second account to "try" out a champ you have almost never played in ranked, i am not saying you cant. The only thing im saying is that respect the vast amount of the time all of us use to get a "feeling" from this game. And i hope the majority play this game to get a good feeling. Maybe you guys who trolls/feed on purpose for fun or because some player said something to you in chat. Remember it is 3 other on that team that didnt say anything, respect them and respect the time their investing or has invested for winning JUST that game.
It is many other reasons for all the toxicity in this game. But for me, the reason is that the time i invested will never come back, and after getting 2 games in a row where someone just decide to feed i lost 1 hour of my life, and what did i get back, well a bad feeling and a bad mood for 3-4 minuttes:)
I dont know if i am alone on this one but i just wanted to share my thoughts.....
Thx for reading (Sorry for my english, not my mother language)
