No, it is called "the majority of Riot's paying playerbase doesn't want to deal with toxic children, and Riot does the best they can to oblige them."

When did Riot exterminate millions of people?

I know I don't like dealing with toxic players. Ruins my game for me.

Yes, these people on the boards run on full nazi mode.

They group up to downvote every thread they dislike, just like a SS Blitzkrieg. And sometimes even persecute people to downvote multiple threads and comments. Mods pretend to not see the voting manipulation that clearly happens.

Also, don't say you are not american, or you will get more harassment from xenophobic people in the boards.

Hello, I'm from the good old "Nazi Germany" and I guess ... you're from dumbass country or something like that, right?

Sorry but acting like a jerk is not allowed or tolerated here. If you can't or won't interact with others in a neutral or positive manner like a mature person does then don't be a part of multiplayer online games. From Ulanopo's Knowledge Base:

People who report are simply being oversensitive. The mute button exists for a reason.”

Let’s start with the Riot quote on this (link (http://forums.na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?p=30696571#post30696571)):

Why is verbal abuse punishable if there is a mute button/language filter? Players shouldn’t need to rely on features like the mute button or language filter to engage with other players in positive ways. When a player verbally abuses another player and forces him to use the mute button, they have already created a negative experience for that player.

Simply put, Riot says no. You can scream and cry all you want, but it is their house and their rules.

With that out of the way, I think the topic deserves some further discussion. The theory is that, if people resolved to care less, then they would be happier. I often refer to this as “Argument from Stoicism” and I think it is a fairly weak philosophy because it places the burden on the person being expected to endure the behavior rather than the person exhibiting the behavior. “You should be able to handle it” is just a flimsy excuse for being a bully or a jerk. I have to be the bigger man so that you can do whatever you want? That hardly seems fair.

There is also the issue of how I spend my limited free time. Like most people, I am constantly required to make value judgments between the different forms of entertainment that are available to me and, let's be honest, we live in an age of nearly limitless entertainment options. If I'm having a bad day in League, I can just fire up Steam and play a whole bunch of games that don't require me to put up with someone's BS.

This is not an issue of weakness or thin-skin; it's a question of choosing activities that don't leave me feeling frustrated and angry. Too many of those experiences and I'll just find something else to do. Riot knows this.
