I use to have a problem holding back when people start flaming myself or others in the game. I never started it but once someone else did then thats where i got myself in trouble.

So now i do things different, i cant just ignore cuz its not in me XD lol butttt. What I do now just to make light of the situation is take everything they say and act like i have a horny fetish to what they say lol. for example if someone says like "mid is so trash". Ill respond with something dumb like "Ohh daddy say morreeee".

It sounds creepy explaining it on the boards but I find it hilarious and it un-tilts not only me but usually the rest of my team including the ones flaming. Making funny jokes out of the situation seems to remind people that its just a game and we playin to have a good time.

Which brings me to my question, is typing in such ways okay or is it reportable? BC ive had my honor reset once in the past when i use to flame back and it took wayyyyyyy too long for my honor to go back up and I dont that to happen again. So I just wanna make sure responding in this kind of way is okay or not. [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

Making jokes in response to toxicity is never punishable. Just keep it clean and on the relatively normal-side (I would say your cutoff point should be "daddy say more" or something along those lines) and you'll be 100% fine.

Your intentions are also good, which helps :p

Providing if your responses are not intended to insult or harass others, you'll be fine.

Well, responding to toxicity could likely be linked to inflammatory comment. The reason being, you're provoking the toxic player to type more as you continue to respond to it.

As long to play the game as intended, maybe saying it something once or twice won't hurt, but if you continue to type more than you play, you're likely ruining the game for other players as they're trying to win.

It'd be better if you simply don't respond to it and mute the player. Keep you from being distracted from the actual game and being idle as you type.
