14 day ban for talking crap to enemy team??

YoullGoFarKidez··3 votes·2,048 views

I often like to start stuff with the enemy in all chat and if they want to throw smack talk back at me then I see nothing wrong talking smack to them. this is a competitive video game! im not telling my team to uninstall cause they suck I am talking smack to the ENEMY!! not my team.. isnt that the point? to beat the enemy? lower the enemies moral so I can win easier.. I dont see how this is a bannable offense

I see nothing wrong talking smack to them.

Then I see nothing wrong for you to receive a 14 days suspension then. That's Riot's way of "talking smack" at you back, it's only fair lol.

not really. its pretty silly that I got banned over this, im helping my chances of winning by tilting the enemies, this is a legit strategy in many other games

Nope, that's just pure unsportsmanship. Making your enemies mad in the beginning for no reason is nothing to be proud of when trying to win. It's like going for a running marathon & you took the chance to tie your opponent's shoelaces to get the early advantage.

i wouldnt say this is comparable to tying an opponents shoelaces.. we are talking about a mind game.. putting them off their game as some say

I honestly don't think some of you people have ever played sports lol.

Talking crap isn't allowed no matter what..

I understand that you can have more chances of winning when you tilt the enemies, but it's still against the rules and you should stop doing it if you dont want a perma ban.

this is insane though.. its part of the culture in almost every other game.. I guess I just need to unbind my chat key if I dont want to get banned...

No, i'm pretty sure that talking shit is not allowed in any game..

If so, name one please.

It's pretty unsportsmanlike to purposefully try making the enemy feel bad. Sure, they might have started it, but remember that the more text you type the less time you have to actually play. Plus, by using all-chat for your toxicity you're effectively making a correct 9x report plausible.

You're not supposed to harass anyone. Neither your team, nor the enemy.

YoullGoFarKidez1 votes

so just dont talk at all is pretty much what im getting from everyone. cause the children might get offended.. I guess ill just do that then. what a game riot has turned this into

SeekerofSilence1 votes

You can talk, but don't say something you wouldn't say to someone's face. :)

YoullGoFarKidez1 votes

but i would say those things to their face.. because its all part of the game so should be expected. im honestly scared to even talk though cause 1 more strike and im perma banned... this scares the hell out of me that if a premade doesnt like me ill get banned..

SeekerofSilence1 votes

If you say nothing in chat, you won't be banned no matter if you get reported by people "not liking you".

If you say these kinds of things to people's faces I'm honestly concerned for your social life. It's part of the game, but you're here for fun. If they aren't in on your trash talk, don't do it all. If you really want to trash talk, get yourself a 5-man premade and flame each other to your heart's content, but don't let it ruin the game for peoole who just want to play.

Deal with it, people are pretty sensitive around here. Dunkey quit this game because of this. (He's a famous LoL youtuber, in case you don't know him)

well shit man.. part of the fun is talking smack though, otherwise I might as well just play a single player game

Remember riot wants to make this game for people in every age group. So what this means is basically you have to go into every game expecting 10 year olds to be your team mate or your enemy.

YoullGoFarKidez1 votes

this was a high plat elo game.. this is outrageous

Oksanaandjoy1 votes

I'm curious about your assumption regarding this demographic. Who are the "high plat elo" players?

YoullGoFarKidez1 votes

the "10 year olds"

As long as you didn't use racist or prejudice comments, then I think it should be allowed to smack tal the enemy

I agree your suspension was bullshit

YoullGoFarKidez1 votes

im just going to stop typing in game. nothing ever good comes from it anyways

Can we get chatlog please? I wanna see what you mean when you say "talking smack". Because as far as i know you can do that in game, just as long as you arent attacking someone, using racial/derogitory words, or wishing death/cancer on someone. Sadly some people consider those as "talking smack" which is just idiotic. But chat logs will show us what exactly you mean when you say you were just talking smack at the enemy.

League of Legends is a community made up of many different people with many different expectations, beliefs and values. You are also a member of that community and us such need to be respectful of all other members. In truth, you have no idea who you are talking to, what has happened to them that day, or what they value/expect out of the community. As such it is important that any member of the community is respectful of this.

It might be a cliched analogy, but you wouldn't go spouting off to an absolute stranger in a face to face situation. Amateur and professional sports alike frown upon sledging as tactic.

YoullGoFarKidez1 votes

i am certainly not a member of this community. id rather quit before being labeled as one. what happened to them today or yesterday isnt my problem. if they didnt want me to talk smack back then they shouldnt have talked it to me, that simple

Oksanaandjoy2 votes

Despite what you may think, you are a member of the community because you play the game. Even an individual who never uses the chat function, is still a member albeit a very passive one. You have shown us, through this post, your description of your interactions in game, and your boards history, show that you are quite active in the community. The punishment that you describe is the community calling you out on a violation of the expectations of this community and encouraging you to be a more amicable participant. The majority of these comments to your original concern are doing the same thing. You might try listening to your peers.

Cheers.

best option for me is to hide my chat in game and not type anything anymore so thats what ill be doing. nobody says anything important in game anyways, so I figure that is the best choice

as for the enemy who was throwing back punches towards me I am sure he will not get punished for this as thats how the community is. everyone must put it all on someone in the match and that person was me. simple

You probably didn't understand the difference between trash talking and harassing.

MasterSomething1 votes

I taunt the enemy But then I get camped for it You must have done much more to get banned for "crap talking". I don't even think you are doing that, I think you are just insulting them...

FrankerX1 votes

i talk smack almost every game since season 2 and never had any banns or restrictions. guess your smack is somehow violating the rules.

Kei1431 votes

That .. will depend on how badly you trash talk.

Dare to post your logs?

What does it matter if its "competitive video game"? What kind of argument is that? Tennis is a competitive game, you dont see player talk smack to his opponent. I havent seen any "smack talk" in water polo. Volleyball rarely has smack talk. No "smack talk" in handball.
