This is a rigged game. Ranked is a joke. You chat ban me for getting stuck unfairly with constant teammates that feed and troll and afk and I'm not supposed to get mad? Yeah right. You are okay with me spending hundreds of dollars over years on this game but I'll never get out of bronze hell as solo Ranked because this game is a cesspool for toxic trolls.

Tilt loses games. Flaming your own team is putting yourself in ELO hell.

That's not true. There are high elo players that flame and most players in Korea flame while still being in high elo.

Using flame as an excuse for being low elo/elo hell is like the worst argument I've ever seen

and most players in Korea flame while still being in high elo.

the korean server's rules of conduct are a different kettle of fish. What they consider troublesome is not what the other servers consider as such, therefore it's not a relevant example for what goes on on the NA server.

That seems like a roundabout way of saying NA players have thin skin =).

As for me, I just adapt to the sensitivities of the server and just bait as many people into flaming as I can. If i cant flame them, i can at least get them banned xD.

There are smokers that live longer than average, that doesn't mean smoking doesn't have a negative impact on your life expectancy.

But what does flaming do for you? Does it help you win games? No. Does it help your teammates? No. Does it make your teammates want to help you? Absolutely not. Does it get you chat banned, then permanently banned? Most definitely. It's always up to you how you chose to respond to trolls.

I know how to skirt the system easily, haven't been punished in over 2 years.

Apparently not. Or you wouldn't banned.

Before my chat restriction, I hadn't been banned since 2014. What's your point?

Theres no justifying that behavior. If you keep it up you'll be perma banned but you know that.

You should do a poll asking people if flame helps them just so you can at least get a general idea if the things youre saying are actually tied to any sort of truth. Then again its a super small sample size and a bit skewed. But at least if its heavily one sided, you will know that the majority of people feel a certain way and then you can use that to predict reactions and assume that the majority of the time, flaming wouldn't help. Then you can be better informed in your opinions. because it really seems like your answers are just coming from a personal ideal. They dont seem tied to reality.

Other people's opinions do not factor into my experiences. Additionally, if I'm speaking generally, the Boards is an awful place to attempt to confirm any truth.

That's an understatement. I've been on this board for years, and I know the history of the Player Behavior boards. They downvote anyone that doesn't share their opinions, which results in some people getting discouraged to post if they have opposing views(thinks flame is fine for example). Secondly, the nature of the PB boards attracts people against toxicity.

But at least if its heavily one sided, you will know that the majority of people feel a certain way and then you can use that to predict reactions and assume that the majority of the time, flaming wouldn't help.

The boards represents barely a fraction of the playerbase, and including the factors I mentioned that leads to the poll being skewed; it simply isn't going to be accurate.

Some of them are.

The way flame impacts others depends on how they view flame, and what kind of mentality they have.

Some perceive flame to be banter/trash talk, some perceive flame to be insulting/toxicity. Some people have a certain mentality that they don't get offended/upset over flame i.e. thick skinned, and some will get offended/upset over it.

The people on this board have a narrow view of how flame affects others and impacts the game, they think it is a guarantee that people will react to flame negatively, which simply isn't true

Yup all good points and honestly i thought about going back and deleting that post, but i was leaving work and then just forgot about it lol. Because bottom line, the small sample size and the fact its only people who use the boards alone discredits any sort of real useful data that could be derived from a poll. Its just too biased and small. I agree.

What does getting mad do? Do you believe you typing to them will magically make them perform better? Newsflash, it doesn't. You are far better off to just mute+report and move on. You do realise that on your team you can only get 4 of those ''bad teammates'', while the enemy team can have 5 of those if you truly yourself perform better than the rest.

Also you accepted the terms when you created your League account, and by breaking those terms you got punished with a chat restriction.

but I'll never get out of bronze hell as solo Ranked because this game is a cesspool for toxic trolls.

If you can't get out of Bronze solo, then you aren't good enough for higher ratings. If you truly belong to a higher rating, you will eventually climb if you put your mind to it and have the necessary skills.

how does trash talking change the situation? do insults suddently make them play according to your expectations?

Honestly judging by his KDA's the OP could definitley do better. I would say he's right where he should be, if not lower.

Judging, insulting and rank shaming. Real constructive, dude.

judging? yes. insulting and rank shaming? hell nah, in fact mine was constructive feedback, it wasnt even an insult. instead of saying he was trash i said "he could do better", as in room for improvement, not a single point in the post did i insult him.

"if not lower"

FOR JUSTICE3 votes

"if not lower"

which was the judgement based off his KDA's. thats not an insult, thats literally a fact as you can check that for yourself. saying i think he belongs lower is not saying he sucks, nor is it saying his division is terrible. in fact, i said the exact opposite, he can do better.

you're just cherry picking at this point tbh.

Apriccot1 votes

Pretending like you wouldn't be insulted if a random internet person told you that you should be lower rank than you are. Now that's funny.

and whose problem is it if they take it as an insult if all i said was they have room for improvement? whose problem is it if they asked on a public forum?

certainly not mine.

you also speak as if the OP has taken offence in the first place, i doubt he has even seen the post and this thread is most likely just a spur of the moment rant.

Apriccot2 votes

its just funny that you're telling him you don't think he deserves to climb, and that he should actually be lower rank, when based on your match history you're clearly... ah forget it. LOL.

yep, a support nami main.

but playing utility doesn't mean being carried, in fact its the exact opposite considering when playing some kind of catcher everyone else is just too much of a puss to actually start a fight.

Hey, at least you haven't been banned for all the rampant account sharing you've been doing, right?

Everyone gets angry sometimes. Not everyone feels the need to type in chat in order to vent, and fewer still feel the need to turn into assholes while doing so.

Focus on your own game-play. Mute everyone and just make sure you focus on making yourself better. Find a friend who is a similar level to you that you guys can help each other climb. Don't be toxic to your team, especially in ranked. This game is free. You don't have to spend a cent. You aren't getting banned for speaking the truth. You are getting banned for being an asshole. When my team loses I say to myself "what could I have done better"? Yes there are games where I was playing amazing and my team lost. But its a team game and you wont climb at all by flaming your whole team. Forgive people for making mistakes. And remember: THIS IS A VIDEOGAME. Chillax.

Apriccot1 votes

I feel your pain. Just ignore the losers on their high horses who sarcastically shame and lecture you for having emotions. ELO hell is real. Shit troll teammates are real. Take breaks between games, it's the only thing that helps me. As far as riot banning you, I'm on my fourth account. They're never going to fix their bullshit discipline system that panders to weak people. You gotta work around it because it'll never change since it's making them tons of money.

Lol you are allowed emotions. Wtf. You just cant insult or harass people.

you're right, bro. its all rigged and riot fucking hates us, thats why they have forum troopers who are paid to delete and vanquish truth spitters like ourselves so that more girls get conned by their boyfriends into playing this waste of time joke of an esport

Bruh if you can't get out of bronze then there's nothing wrong.

Maybe you're just bronze. That's ok. That just means that's your current skill level. You can continue to improve.
