How to stop being toxic

Centauri4··1 votes·1,096 views

I am currently on my 6th account as my 5th one got pbanned, and I already got a chat ban on it because I responded to someone who was flaming me. I can't help it, it's so hard to not type in chat. Why doesn't riot have an option to turn it off completely? Or do they want people to get pbanned so they have to buy their skins again? How can you legitimately stop being toxic?

Can't be toxic in game if you are never in game.

When it gets that bad for me I take a 10 minute break after every game. I go get some fresh air, refill my glass of water, and get a snack of some kind that won't give me a bloodsugar high and subsequent crash.

Little breaks do wonders.

Also from what you've said, it seems like you misbehave impulsively, meaning that you're not really in control of your own emotions / behaviors. That doesn't mean you are not responsible, because you are expected to control yourself, but if you're looking for how to fix it then you need to figure out why you're losing control in the first place.

Usually being too invested in your performance and status in the game, and too invested in winning are common ones. Ego plays a large part in lost self-control. If you're pissed off by someone blaming you for things, that's normal, but the trick is just to not care what they think.

Move the screen to the bottom left .

Pull out the button "enter" when your in game ^,^ And put it back in when the game is over .

Hmm... find out why you are flaming in the first place.

Did they make a bad play and so you started getting angry cos they hindered your chances to win?

Did you make a bad play and they flamed you and you flamed back?

Did they say something to you of cos of your pick/ban?
