What happened to waturmelon's post?

Someone who just mentioned their suicidal wanted help and their thread was taken down within 5 minutes or so.

waturmelon, I would suggest you if you see this thread to recruit a duo on thread or possibly play some ARAM for a while. /mute all for your games until you see improvement in your games if not listen to music and play it often helps me.

Toxicity is something we ALL have and some like you and me share it where we can tilt easily and just want to win. Simply by trying to just play their games and help them however our teammates play, we're stuck with what we have. We just have to play around it and hope for the best if not look forward to the next game and the next.

Don't do anything to harm yourself. If anything we could duo a few games or so. I would gladly smurf if you're not Silver/Gold on my smurf. Bottom line, suicide is NOT the answer. THINGS WILL GET BETTER!

Saying you are going to kill yourself is pretty much instant delete. I believe they will send you a list of suicide hotline type links along with the reason for the deletion.

I am sure they do that but still the action of deleting it could confuse the OP why they got it deleted and they just want to be heard. Psychology isn't something many people are skilled in BUT isn't it our civil duty as Human beings to actually be Human at times?

The player just wanted an ear. I've had many days I've gone depressed and often try to reach out to friends secretly not mentioning I'm depressed and well it's hard. BUT we don't have to ignore the player now do we?

Indeed we don't, but those are the rules. Suicide talk always gets deleted.

I understand the rules completely BUT if you could make a difference right now, would you do it?

Giving suicide hotlines numbers doesn't do much.

Like an automated response from Support.

Hence why I believe I also mentioned the gamer could mistaken/confused the deletion of their post for wanting a shoulder to lean on. The mind of someone troubled could think a lot when in the state. Confusion is a bitch when confused.

Also if the gamer has no friends what is the likelihood they'll want to talk to another being about their problems? I'm not trying to playing bad cop but now-a-days gamers are often depressed or what not so for them to reach to do something out of the blues for say call the hotline, I don't think they will as to for this case this gamer in their original post with their detailed message made it seem they're not the type to call a phone number given.

Needless to say, I will gladly offer my help.

I don't really disagree. Except that on an internet forum, and specifically this one you are just as likely to be met with a negative response.

It is also a dangerous subject and no one here is really qualified to take it on.

Very true but often at times all it might take is someone to care and or just listen/help.

And it could just as easily go the other way with 1 person saying something like "just get it over with".

Yep. The Human mind works mysteriously cause not all are alike so people can't just be like, "Why can't you just be like him/her?" or like, "Just ignore it and get it over with." I am not calling people out but some gamers and Humans live with disabilities or things that make it harder for them to simply let go.

Take for consideration the ESSA(Every Student Succeed Act) in the U.S was recently (idk if it is but) established to help ALL students in the U.S with their academics. Not everyone knows their Physics or Calculus. Nevertheless it doesn't mean you can label everyone in the community as just "one" type of student. Everyone got their pace and how they comprehend things.

That's the struggle and reality...

Yeah really. I just wrote a huge thing about my experience reforming and some tips. I gave my IGN and offered to play with him to help him out and when I sent it I got an error. summoner 3

I don't think Riot knows by deleting someone's thread when they stated some serious stuff could influence that person to take action... I hope the person isn't doing anything in response and OR hopefully Riot is handling it.

I play music when im queuing up alone. Makes it easier to not get angry with a little tune in the background.

I am still toxic but before in season 3-5 I would constantly flame others for not playing well and costing the game, still applies BUT reports are real now. I've been doing a lot of musics and or gaming with friends to help this and it really helps.

By distracting your mind from replying to someone or talking to someone about something in-game you can just listen to the new Taylor Swift song or whatever you like. :^)

I mean literally this game is LIFE to some players; Pros and or not. It changes real people's life too.

No. The gamer mentioned depression and Life of no friends so it was really hard for them to try to have fun in the game they loved which has a lot of toxic community members/gamers, I myself am one. And yeah it just got removed.

Oh I forgot the game the gamer played they were doing fine until their team mate bashed the gamer and the gamer (idk the gender) just decided to feed and actually try to get their account(s) banned. Saying they rather just give up their Life and as well this last thing they enjoy or like doing.
