Getting chat restricted b/c you complained about people trolling you. Good times.

I sent this to riot. Needless to say they didn't respond. Great customer service you have!

"Oh so I'm the one who gets punished? Because I complain about being trolled? Please go back and actually watch this game, and tell me I shouldn't have complained. For an online game, why is Riot the only company that caters to the cry baby children who play this game? I don't see other online games like WoW, Dota, or Elder Scrolls babying their players. It's an online game for a reason, where is my freedom of speech? You made a mute button for a reason, if they can't handle being told the truth, then THEY should mute me. So tell me this, if my teammate thresh and xin are flashing on me for no reason and throwing their spells at me (after intentionally feeding), is that not considered trolling? You can't just mute that. You can't unsee those things either. As a long time supporter and lover of this game, can you PLEASE STOP CATERING TO BABIES. I got a 25 game chat restriction for 1 game WHERE THEY TROLLED ME. And god forbid I complain about it using my only means, TYPING. So now I am sending this to you.. If I wasn't trying to go pro, I would have stopped playing this game a long time ago because of the weak/intolerable community this game has bred. Self-entitled, babies who reach for a tissue and you KEEP SUPPLYING THEM WITH MORE. Get rid of the tribunal system, emphasize the mute button, and balance the MMR in normals please. I am D5 so why am i being paired with golds and silvers who I should never have to play with! I have earned that much. "

Yes I realize this is angry, but trust me it's been bottled up for a long time. Don't tell me to calm down. Just read it and embrace it. No this is not my diamond account. I don't really think i need to give riot more reasons to punish me so I'll put this on my smurf. If you aren't diamond, don't bother commentating; I'm not being elitist, I just don't think you really understand how this feels if you haven't been in my shoes. For those who have though, what are your thoughts? Am I too far off a realistic goal? Will they continue to cater to babies? Probably. But to hell if I'm not going to be loud af about it. We all have a right to complain. There's a mute button, right riot? If that magic button is there then every problem is solved!

Freedom of speech doesn't give you freedom from the consequences of your speech. Riot has rules about how you can behave while playing their game. If you break those rules, expect consequences.

Complaining about trolls doesn't stop them from trolling. If anything, it makes the experience worse for the other 0-3 players and the troll(s) get exactly what they want.

That's the thing, I shouldn't have consequences for what i type in a video game. Have you ever played wow or dota? Nobody gets punished for saying w/e they want. And people get along more peacefully there, than they do here. Guess a lot of the babies agree with what you said... even though you're just stating what riots rules are like a meat bot.

Translation: Online bullying is A-OK.

This is just flat out incorrect. Harassment is punished in those communities as well. Riot is just faster/more strict about it.

Literally your entire argument is composed of calling people babies and claiming to be a diamond smurf. Are you really wondering why nobody is taking you seriously?

Retaliation is as equally punishable to trolling in Riot's eyes.

EatnScrubs1 votes

That is SO wrong in so many ways though... don't you agree? In my opinion they should drop the tribunal system all together, it's unfair. Leave the mute button, drop tribunal. It's almost a form of self-defense. If someone was to smack you, would you defend yourself? Or would you both take the punishment, for something they started. Yes, I realize I should mute them and move on, but sometimes, that's not enough. Especially when they are intentionally trolling you.

No, it's not self defense. Self-defense is by definition PREVENTING further attack. Muting is self-defense. Retaliation is just reactionary raging, nothing more.

EatnScrubs1 votes

That's funny, so if I smack you you aren't going to fight back? That's what self defense is. It's not a PREVENTATIVE measure. It doesn't prevent jack if it's already happening. Also your name doesn't give me much hope. Also this is self defense >>> "the act of defending one's person when physically attacked, as by countering blows or overcoming an assailant." AND you're silver. I see that you didn't even read the whole post. Downvote this one as well! Even though that troll "very toxic jinx" defined DEFENSE not even self defense. God you people are unbelievable! LOL Gullable and stupid what a combo!

disregardable6 votes

....

Defense- the action of defending from or resisting attack. Defend-resist an attack made on (someone or something); protect from harm or danger.

I'm sorry if you don't want that to be the definition, but it is.

I literally just looked up the definition and quoted it. You haven't been in my shoes. I will remove you. It doesn't help proving your point by listing "defense," it's not the same thing as "self defense". You do all your school work with this kind of effort? If you actually have a valid argument I'll entertain it, but seeing as you're silver and not diamond, I'm done responding to you.

Sorry, you can't remove people that correct you or that disagree with you. This place is meant for discussion and sometimes instruction.

EatnScrubs1 votes

You're silver. Leave my post. Ya downvote this one too, b/c i tell him to leave when he responds to my post addressing diamond players. Real solid logic!

I'm not, and you're still wrong.

Please tell me how.

Nah. I don't have to.

You're 12 kid. Grow up.

Twiggles3 votes

Says the one pulling the rank card (which he can't even prove because it's a "smurf" account). Just another child who can't take being wrong on the forums.

rescued1 votes

What does rank even have to do with this? You make 0 sense.

EatnScrubs1 votes

It's my post and i can't remove someone. Just another crutch put in place by riot. So little kids can ruin your post.

Imagine you're playing a friendly yet competitive board game at a local tournament.

Player 1 decides to tell another "lol you fucking suck %%%%%".

Nobody wants him there if he's going to act like that so Players 2 and 3 report his behavior and he's given a warning by the staff. If he acts like that twice more he'll get kicked out.

In the next game Player 1 does it again, but this time Player A decides to punish him in his own way and flips the table and the two start a screaming match.

Good job Player A. Player 1 was already on his way to getting punished, but you decided to make it worse for everyone including yourself. Player 1's punishment has not changed, but you ruined a match more than it already was (if it was at all) and made an ass of yourself.

So compare that to most other games that allow freedom of speech, like wow and dota. Why should League be different? Those games don't have punishment systems just ignore buttons and they seem to work out fine. And thank you for explaining your point unlike this toxic pos.

  1. You have no proof you're diamond.
  2. Diamond V isn't shit. Your elitist attitude is immature and invalid.
  3. The fact that you can't comprehend why it's wrong to retaliate the way you do shows a lack of common sense and understanding of how rules work. You agreed to riots rules when you made your fake diamond account. Therefore if you break them, you will be punished.

A real world example of this was when I was young (middle school age) and I played in a youth basketball league. There was a kid on one of the teams that was "toxic." He would curse at other players, talk back yo the refs (who were volunteers by the way) and at one point shoved a team mate to the ground for not passing him the ball. This is exactly what you are doing. He and his parents were banned from the league after several warnings. This is how riot and the community views you as well. You make the experience for other players worse due to your actions.

If you've ever signed up for anything then you agree to their rules. That's how the world works kiddo. You've got a lot or growing up to do. Hopefully when you get out of middle school you wont get your ass handed to you by society.

Keep down voting my post. Feel free! I know none of you are the caliber players I was even addressing. You're the other half, the ones that troll, feed and make this game worse for me. Now you're agreeing with all the other shitters that I'm forced to play with :) You ARE THE BABIES RIOT IS CATERING TO. I noticed NOT ONE OF YOU is diamond, but hell go ahead and respond to it anyway your points are invalid b/c you don't understand what it's like to be on the OTHER side. You're the type of people, I have to carry. This game isn't about being kind to others (nobody would buy that game) , its about having fun and winning. You know what makes winning hard? Bad players, trolls, and feeders. Having a positive attitude is sure to win you the game :D :D :D sarcasm level 10. It's about skill. And trust me, when players are good, its easy to tell. Sure people make mistakes sometimes, but good players can tell the bad from the good pretty easily. And I would never rage at someone who refuses to give up, and plays using their head.

I noticed that you aren't Diamond either, but Gold 5. Nevertheless, rank means nothing outside of balance. A raging Diamond is as much of a scum as a raging Bronze. If you do indeed plan to pull the rank card on me, I'll save you some time: I am unranked this season because I do not have stable enough internet after a move to confidently play ranked. I was Gold V at the end of season 4, and continue to be matched with Golds, Diamonds, and Plats in normals to this day.

All of your arguments in the OP are easily debunked as follows:

1.)"Riot is the only company who punishes toxicity" -Already tackled by several people. Done.

2.)"Freedom of Speech" -This only applies to the Govt, not Riot. Riot invited you into their house, and laid out simple rules, one of which is "don't be a dick". You broke RIot's rules, they booted you.

3.)"Thresh and Xin fed." -If you plan to use game context, please link the match history. Otherwise there is nothing to analyze. Link the match history, and I can determine how they fed.

4.)"Catering to Babies" -Catering to behaving and non-toxic players. Next.

5.)"Only way to complain about it" -Lodge a formal complaint by reporting them. Riot can only answer your concerns if you let them know through established pipelines. Maybe even a support ticket.

6.)"I'm posting on my smurf so Riot doesn't punish me" -Forum behavior does not equate to in-game punishment unless in very fringe cases. No danger of posting on your real account here.

7.)"Mute button solves everything" -If a firefighter puts out a fire with his hose, why is the house still burnt? Muting should be a final solution when nothing else can be done... for most people. There is nothing wrong with /mute all at the beginning of a match, however, just let your team know (in a nice manner) that you will not be communicating via chat.

If i did not catch any of your points, let me know. Especially if you decide to link the match history (Go to your online profile in the upper-right, click match history, find the game, link it).
