This gave me all the feels. :(

It's always worth remembering there's a real human being on the other side of the keyboard. Sometimes I look around at a crowded mall or in the middle of a giant raid and try to imagine the fact that EVERYONE there has lives as complex as my own - with friends and problems and preferences for broccoli or whatever. It's a simple thing that never fails to blow my mind.

No. Just no. I draw the line at people who like broccoli. There's just something inhuman about that.

Other than that, totally right. Just because you are having a bad day, or a bad game, doesn't mean the other people in the game aren't in similar or worse situations. Treat them with respect, this may be their only escape.

I eat broccoli AND cauliflower, why can't we all just get along!?!?

BetaDude4013 votes

Cauliflower is a heretical plant.

THERE IS ONLY ONE TRUE BROCCOLI, AND IT ISN'T YOUR RANCH-DRESSING-COLORED IMPOSTOR!!

FlashnFuse4 votes

Cauliflower and broccoli are two halves of a perfect world! I welcome my cauliflower laden savior with open arms! As do I accept the principles and doctrine of broccoli!!!

Your generation needs to learn to open up their hearts and minds and accept other flowers into their lives!

I'm tired of being paired with broccoli-eaters. When will Riot fix this? Please permaban these scumbags.

My mom is divorcing for a 2nd time, but I'm glad this time. My step dad is an asshole.

Ill be honest, my parents should get a divorce. Theor toxic relationship is only held together by the fact they have children and their indian heritage

WAS an asshole, he isn't your step dad anymore!

Sadly this could become a meme that people joke about instead of it actually working beyond a certain point.

Same here man, but I don't live near an Internet connection so I can't even play my favorite one ( league)

TheMonocleRogue43 votes

League of Legends is used by many as an outlet to deal with unrest. Don't vent your frustrations into chat or, at the very least, be polite about it.

"Direct action is not always the best way. It is a far greater victory to make another see through your eyes than to close theirs forever"

I tried to use this in my last game and my teammates turned on my and said they hope my dad kills me my mom from abuse.

True story.

If that happened to me I don't know what I'd do, mostly because my mother was indeed killed from domestic violence and I've since been battling with depression and the subsequent piss-poor school grades. I hope things go well for both you and your parents man, and don't be afraid to get into the conversation if you feel the need, your opinion MATTERS!

Holy hell, I'm sorry for you... if anyone happens to tell you anything horrible in League, please try to bear in mind that they don't know, and they would most likely not do it if they knew. Still report them, but try your best not to associate it to your life... it's only going to hurt you. Other than that, a big hug to you. And hug someone else for me too, ok? Never enough hugs on this planet.

Jet Sett4 votes

I know others don't know, it's why I don't get upset about it. If I do, I tell them because I can't really get too mad if they don't even know, I appreciate the hug too, those things are my favorite!

Wrong lobby at the wrong time, unlucky I'd say. You definitely can't base the community off of a couple of individuals that are likely angst-y teenagers fresh out of a slew of bad games.

Jesus... How do people even get this rude

I'm shocked that worked, usually when i see pity stories in games even the enemy team joins in telling them they deserved to be killed/disowned etc...

I rarely use reddit. I only use it when it's very relevant to something.

Troll Armada2 votes

smart, reddit is garbage. most of the accounts are fake.

I see job posts for reddit 'projects' all the time, I avoid them all like the plague.

Lol what? That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. What proof do you have to back this up?

I use Reddit for summoner school. It's helped quite a bit.

However, Azir is disabled, so I'm not playing for the time being. =D

I would have to modify mine to say something along the lines of, "Guys I play games to get away from my wife yelling at me"..

Wonder if it would work? True story though.

Space Bum5 votes

My wife yells at me if I play video games. If I don't play video games I have to spend time with her. It's a vicious cycle....

Jakenoff5 votes

Mine is the opposite. Whenever I stop to playing games to pester her, she tells me to leave her alone. At that point, I go play more games. Works wonders.

It also helps that she works thirds while I work first shift, so she is usually sleeping or at work when I'm home.

How'd you all manage to become enemies with someone you're supposed to have loved to get where you're at...?

Oh well, there's a reason if I decided it's not worth ever experiencing love.

My parents got divorced when I was just a baby, I don't know what its like to have two parents :(

And the one parent I had used to give me black eyes for attention seeking :(

I don't believe for a second that that worked. Sorry guys, but I have way too little faith in the online community for that.

Leblancster3 votes

I love how everyone in here is trying to act all "holier than thou" when in reality you are probably all responsible for trash talking, demoralizing, tilting, and blaming teammates and opponents alike. How about instead of oohing and aahing and patting yourselves on the back, you actually try to make a difference in the community through actions. Thanks.

Thats sad and also true for me. Some parents are really evil. Kassadin Kas!SAD!in :D

NO NOW2 votes

I understand this all too well. When you can bring yourself to sympathize with a player going through this and understand it's a more common unfortunateness than you'd expect, you will then change for the better.

I play a lot of high elo games and most of my games the chat is nearly empty, so nobody ever knows what a player feels like in real life. I take the caution that even if a player is trolling, that maybe they're just having a bad game because of real life situations. summoner 13

Was in a recent ARAM game. Someone on my team made a comment about suicide. It was slightly ambiguous but they were probably talking about in game, so the other team doesn't get any gold. A person on the other team asked "IRL or ingame?". guy on our team said something like "lol both I guess". Enemy team guy then posted the phone number for the suicide hotline. I was moved. He was probably only joking, but the possibility of that helping someone was more important.
