if there was a way to have chat turned off and your enter key unbind'd i believe it would lead to having less toxic cases in league of legends espically in my eyes im very toxic and i am sorry for it but players who get tilted or just type alot just need a way to 
out of typing to focus on the game instead of a chat box beside the game
Voldymort5 votesbecause...
if you can't control your temper, riot isn't going to do your job for you
nelogis3 votes"do his job for him"
You just need to allow unbinding the enter key how much of a job is that? At least he is trying to be less toxic and then you come here and tell him the million dollar company can't let you unbind the enter key because it's too much work for them?
What in the actual fuck?
Most god damn indie games let you re- and unbind all they keys you want.
Sir Prepuzius2 votesoh, then tell me one game, indie or not, in which you can unbind the enter key in the friggin chatbox of the game
right, nobody does that, because it would be an idiotic feature and makes no sense whatsoever
if you can't restrain yourself from typing shit in the chat at the level that you have to demand for such a feature don't bother playing the goddamn game, it's not "league of problem children" aniway

World of Warcraft.... And im pretty sure if it works there it works on other Blizzard games too.
It takes like 5mins of googling to find this out.

Let's play a little game. Go to Google and type in "unbinding the enter key in game". The first 5 results WITHOUT even mentioning League are League related posts on how to unbind the enter key. The first link is a link to the boards where a guy tells you how you can unbind it via a 3rd party software.
Idiotic feature my ass. It is highly asked for, in the League community.

By that logic we should remove the mute and report option too. "League isn't a safe place, take it like a man" do you see how stupid it sounds?
What does it hurt you if a guy can unbind the enter key or not? Don't worry season 9 wont be cancelled because there is too much work implementing a "unbind enter key" feature. Literally just take away the fixed command and add a relative command to the box you can copy paste from other key bindings.
You could propably program that in 2 hours.
2 hours for a highly requested feature from the community I guess the OP is an idiot for asking for it because it's an "idiotic feature" amirite?

probably those games you talk about use the enter key for the actual game, not his chatbox that's why you can bind it, i asked you to provide an example of a game that allow the binding of the enter key of the chatbox. but whatever it's not like i care aniway even if there was one

i didn't imply that, on the other hand since there is already the mute system ,asking for something that basically is the feature to mute myself would be the apex of idiocy
you can't do nothing about other players behaviour (and that's why we have mute) but surely you can do something about yours, unless you have some serious behavioural disorder, in that case you should go asking help to some medic, not to riot.

No you can specifically bind a key to open the chat and write, the standard key is enter and you can also unbind it.
And if you don't care then why even ask?

Of course you didn't and I never said that you did but it is your logic.
Battlerie has feature called /disable chat It hinders you from hearing or typing ANYTHING until it is enabled again. Is that also too much work to implement m8?
How about a box where you can uncheck the "display chat" is that also too much work? How about being able to manually set how many messages you can write per game in the client options is that also too much work?
Being able to disable chat completely is something almost any multiplayer has and it would be something similar to unbinding the enter key
A little info on the side
Just because YOU don't need it doesn't make it a idiotic feature. What's next? Should we remove the color blind feature too because it isn't Riots job to repair eye sight and these "idiots" demanding for the feature should visit a medic instead?
Answer me this question: What is the matter if it was possible? Why should you give 2 shits about a guy unbinding his enter key?

wait a moment now you're talking chat features (set max messages, enable disable chat etc) tho i couldn't care less personally, those request you made now actually made sense.
what i said being idiotic is only the unbinding of the enter key to prevent myself of typing, pratically a sort of "mute me" button.
Answer me this question: What is the matter if it was possible? Why should you give 2 shits about a guy unbinding his enter key?
i can't imagine me or some other dude bashing the keyboard writing stuff that would never send in chat, instead of relaxing and playing the game,it's too fkin sad
p.s. not to mention that people weak willed enough to not use the mute button when necessary will promptly override this feature, so in the end unless you unbind it irreversibly it would be useless

I don't understand your logic here?
So it's okay to put "0 messages per game" but not unbinding the enter key? In both cases you just mute yourself.
Also you just mute yourself when disabling the chat. Whats the difference?

So you would rather see the person writing the stuff and get demoralized than to not see it and have an enjoyable game?
Also it is an assumption that the OP will rebind it, he stated that letting him unbind it will keep him away from using the chat. If he thinks that he would just rebind it then I don't think he would have asked for this feature.

it's not ok the entire concept of muting ourselves to prevent tilting
you want the entire chat disabled without seeing nothing, fine i guess, but an enabled chat without having the possibility of write in it it's not reasonable to ask for
and you're asking a feature for the wrong reasons, as i said you would rebind the possibility to write in it if you see something that upset you
only you can control your temper, asking to be assisted by the software to do so it's a fail by design
how do i know? well i'm never been punished but even gandhi can tilt now and then, and do you think a mere checkbox option would prevent me to respond to some asshole?
nelogis1 votesit's not ok the entire concept of muting ourselves to prevent tilting
Look, it's not about preventing tilting. It's about giving your teammates an enjoyable experience.

This doesn't make any sense. It's the same as sitting in a Discord call with your mic muted because you don't want to say anything right now, while listening to others.

It isn't designed to control temper, it's here so your teammates have an enjoyable experience. How do you think chat restrictions work?
And how do you know "not chatting" is not OP's way of learning to be less toxic?
Also how you would react to the feature =/= how OP (the one who asked for the feature) would react. You could even make it so you can only enable the chat via the client and not ingame but you can disable it everywhere, boom your problem is fixed.
I also never have been punished, I never even got the "Everyone has a bad day" message Riot used to give out back in the day, if that for whatever reason makes me more credible in your eyes.

well, if you put it that way i guess it's reasonable afterall
you won :D , still it's sad we have to resort of those kinda of things while theoritaclly enjoying a game.. instead we need a feature to prevent us getting apeshit mad at others
nelogis1 votesThis is a sympton of the frustrating nature of the game
If snowballing or hypermobility or this damage creep would be stopped already it would reduce frustration and with that toxicity.
Toxicity is like a wildfire, if it isn't handled fast it spreads like the plague. One guy ints in a game and pisses off 4 other people, those 4 are demoralized and let's say 3 ppl keep playing. There is a chance those 3 are tilted and tend to lean to toxic behaviour more than usual, if then by chance 2 of them ARE toxic or show unsportsman like behaviour and ruin the game then there are 8 other people that get demoralized and so on and so forth.
Either you brute force mechanics like disabling the ability to chat to reduce this or you make the game less frustrating and a more fun experience.
I can tell you I have never seen such amount of toxicity in the game than in Season 8 and I have been around for 6 years.

I hate to break it to you, but it's not trying to be less toxic if you're having to ask to forcefully remove your tools you use to express toxicity. That's not actually fixing anything. That's removing a symptom without treating the cause. It's why fad diets fail - they tell all these people "NO CAKE! NO SUGAR! ONLY VEGGIES AND FISH!" and then the moment there's a donut in the room, they bungee jump off their diet and back into their old ways.
To actually fix behaviors, you have to rewrite your habits, and retrain yourself how to respond and how to react to things. If you have a problem with over eating cake, you train yourself to only eat the smallest piece - and just the smallest piece - to sate your craving, and then move on. You wean yourself and train yourself on proper behaviors when you experience situations where you've had trouble in the past, you don't remove those situations entirely because you're not actually learning how to overcome problems if you're avoiding problems. As such, removal of the chat box doesn't fix anything, especially since they can just rebind it. What the OP and people like them need to do is train themselves on how to not overreact to situations, and how to calmly shoulder criticism and how to not take other people's behaviors personally. Introspection and meditation on your behaviors and actions can help you understand this, and by being in situations that would trigger you, you can take the opportunity to practice and work on changing your behaviors. So when someone flames you for dying, just apologize, and leave it at that. If they continue, announce that you muting them, and carry on with your game. Practicing simple things like that, and working through your immediate urge to blast back at them, is how you be less toxic, not removing the chat box.

You are missing the point.
Here are 2 options.
A) He CANNOT unbind the enter key so he proceeds to be toxic and ruin 4 other teammates experience B) He CAN unbind the enter key and his teammates have a good experience
Yes it might not help him personally but it helps in making the game a bit less toxic and more enjoyable. Thats why I think saying "it doesn't help him / It's NOT Riots job" is just dumb. It's Riots job to keep the toxicity under control and with that it aids to that goal so why not implement it?
I don't see a downside in it.

That is an assumption. OP specifically said that unbinding the key will keep him away from chatting (aka also that he wont rebind it) Also he stated

What makes you think this is not his way of becoming less toxic? Maybe this helps him to control himself when he sees how "not typing" is.
Sir Prepuzius3 votesit's like asking for getting your arms amputated because you're tempted to write shyte in chat
it's really so hard for you to stop being toxic in a chat?
how can you function in real world?
if your boss/client start acting funny you would punch him in the face and lose your job? if your wife pisses you off you start verbally/physically harass her?
grow some friggin common self control already!
Tree Citizen1 votesI agree with this. Though you can quickly mute each player in the first 30 seconds of every match, its frustrating because in that 30 seconds, anything can happen. I don't mute everybody in every game. But when you are 0 and 3 top lane into a 3 and 0 fiora because jungle never ganks, it helps me stay focused and not tilt. If talking is not your thing, riot should let it. Also a good added feature for letting young people play and avoid weirdos. There are a lot of weirdos with freaky names and stories. Maybe as a young kid you don't want someone named sloppydaddy talking to you on summer vacation???
Just because I want to mute chat, doesn't mean I would mute pings. Pings can do most of the talking.
AJStarhiker1 votesI suspect another reason Riot hasn't added a self-mute feature is because they don't want players shifting their frustrations from chat into gameplay... which is what they saw happen during the rolling chat ban period.
And really,having chat isn't the problem. The problem is when people expect trolls in their games, they are more likely to view low skill and mistakes as trolling... and then feel need to start flaming some one who may actually have been trying their best.
