I Got Suspended Because I Was Trolled

I went Tristana top, my IGN is Asian. I got trolled by 8 people in a match of 10. My annoyance showed when the Cho'Gath got a gank at level 2 from Xin who hid in a bush after coming at level 2. Then the Cho'Gath ignores lane and sits in bush all the freaking time. This is where you usually go mid or bot then teleport back for your lane to balance the game. BUT my team is feeding the shit out of the enemy and no real opportunities appear. When MY team starts feeding then proceeds to flame me for "going Trist top as a troll" my annoyance is full blown out there. By the end of the game I'm 2/4 while they all have twice as much deaths not much kills and they fed my Cho'Gath who had in early game been ganked for at level 2 but still lost to me in early game. Xin Zhao comes at level 2 dashes in, smacks me, runs away, and hides in a bush until I pushed up getting minions then proceeds to come out and kill me when Cho is better off with silence and knock up. This is extremely annoying when it happens to you three times in a row. By then when your team flames you because they can't actually see what happens then talks shit... You know the feeling no doubt. When the game ends I get hit with multiple reports and am suspended for 14 days. I have served half the time now. Mind you this is norms draft. Even in rank games going top as Trist is not trolling, what is trolling is people who say you are then proceeds to int feed and be toxic to you. I'm posting this to have people reminded they are toxic as well and need to remember that. That along with Riot Games who says they discourage such behavior - they need to ramp up their efforts to not be toxic as well. Every "patch/update" makes the game more unresponsive so when I play and it's horrible game play and I die because of Riot I shouldn't be trolled by anyone because of that failure. And here's the coup de grace, Riot. When they troll me and report me. I shouldn't be the one suspended because my chat logs have actual context that supports the reason why I'm annoyed and I'm getting flamed. You also have no method to screen for and punish actual racist people or people who flame and troll. I'm a solo player and I do not support the toxicity from pre-made queues therefore when I get flamed and trolled for supporting players who are getting hammered what can Riot do? Out of 100 million players; who hasn't become toxic or discouraged because of this game? I have deleted the game many times because of trolls. I get it back because I have nothing better to do and I am familiar enough with the game that I can come right back in and play and not give a damn about the minor dumb things. I hope whoever reads this understands my pain of annoyance and become sympathetic to all the people who just want to enjoy a game. Know this I wasn't in a position where you can say I was predisposed to be toxic. I went from Silver 5 to Silver 4 from winning many games in a row after being in a slump because of horrible MMR matchups. And I was this close to returning back to rank to continue to go past Silver 3. But I took a break(the game where I got trolled,reported, and suspended) and now I am 2 weeks behind on what I set out to do. Great work Riot. Not toxic? I still remember the debacle from the Riot employee who was toxic.

You know the feeling no doubt.

Honestly I don't know the feeling. When people start flaming I mute them. Sure that doesn't fix the literal trolling that is going on, but I avoid all the flame with the push of a button.

I don't know that feeling either. I don't get annoyed and start acting out. I personally don't need to mute people because I can control myself and my emotions.

I focus more on what I can control and do to try and turn things around. I make mistakes and face check where I should not. But here's the difference between us - I don't get annoyed with the opposing player that killed me because they used the environment to their advantage, that's a shame on me. I should've warded there if I was that concerned. Or, I shouldn't have over stayed with low health.

Let's just say in all goodness that after 5 days have I only bothered to read your post and truly read it - I'm pissed. I guess I overstayed at level 2 Tristana top moving in to get 6 minions. I have no reason to ward top bush closest to me 5 times in a row within 15 minutes. It would take a dip out of my gold (buying a control ward)[assuming I warded using normal wards since he "relies" upon sitting in a push for 15 whole freaking minutes and would most likely buy oracle if I reacted because of it] that I already don't have because a Xin decided to come top at level 2 using my team and Cho'Gath being toxic/flaming saying I am inting because I went Tristana top. You also seem to be the kind of person completely fine for a Cho'Gath to sit in a bush over and over again while getting flamed by people on your "team" while being visited 3 times in a row by a Xin then proceed to lose a game because your entire team int'ed but not you, huh?

I ended the match with 2/4 and I rechecked the match afterwards apparently most of them got around 5 deaths and some above that. Most had worst scores then me the entire game never the less. If THEY stopped focused on typing (trolling and flaming me with THEIR toxicity) maybe they wouldn't be as bad as they were. I usually don't even type in-game. Certainly not normal draft where I expect to unwind after a few rank games then go back to rank up again. I went into the match with the full intent on beating my opponent in lane. Not getting flamed by trolls who hinted at exhibiting racist intentions. Why else would you suddenly start flaming a player with an Asian ign? If not because they had nothing better to do.

And I certainly don't appreciate your Machiavellian Western philosophical like narcissism inherit to this side of the world post.

"But here's the difference between us - I don't get annoyed with the opposing player that killed me because they used the environment to their advantage, that's a shame on me. I should've warded there if I was that concerned. Or, I shouldn't have over stayed with low health."

If you read my post you would understand I wasn't in a mood to start inting/flaming/inting or being toxic in general. I got flamed at the very start of the game all the way to the end. If I muted them I would still lose the game because they int and would report me for "inting as Tristana top". Resulting in this situation nonetheless. If you can not infer from what I have written I do not see why you would post your (for this side of the world) stereotypical Machiavellian like narcissism. Anybody would understand if I repeat that I am getting flamed and I will reply back appropriately then you need to understand they were being toxic and you should be pointing that out. Yes, I may have not posted evidence to what they did exactly but you also posted with incorrect assumptions and no evidence of your own that points what you have written is any better/correct as to what I should have done. Getting past Silver was my only way to getting away from the fucking bullshit(was * this part but Riot has it so it's used for bold font) saturated low elo games I get in norms.

I am replying to you because on my screen you are the last one on the page. I am replying because of the three total posts and two above you, I have only seen some Western inherent narcissistic posts. With no willingness nor inclination to point out the faults of the post regarding toxic player behavior and instead associate it with themselves. There was so much between the first and your post I am not even going to bother quoting those sections. I didn't write a "TL;DR" tag anywhere either. So if you had the decency to read anything of my post do not reply solely to two parts of my post. A "You know the feeling no doubt" and an "I'm being a whiny bitch because I do not ward bushes". If you actually read the post you would understand why I was like that and give credit to this point's post (i.e. title post). If anybody understands why the people on this of the world is toxic and wants to something to do about it. Stop fucking hiding yourself and actually combat it. Social responsibility is key to making people less toxic and making people stop. Supporting narcissistic tendencies while saying you don't care about other people being toxic makes you the second line support of toxic people. Let me quote a famous samurai which applies so much to this side of the world I actually see why he said this 150 years ago "I never do verbal battle with others, since even if I win an argument I can’t change the other person’s way of life.”

Critically think this for yourself as to why I would say what I wrote and its meaning. I have to do it when I'm in college here in the U.S. Why should you be any less? Trump being stupid is no reason for Americans to be stupid.

Have a good day! -Tian

i get annoyed with people and frustrated with myself, my teammates, and the enemy but i don't throw it back at them. I just ignore them and focus on the game rather than making everyone else uncomfortable. if someone is being horrible i tell them maybe to cut it out or just play but for the most part i stay quiet and report them in post game. no reason to make everything worse.
