What does "int/inting" mean?

Knejjt·Jan 28, 2019·2 votes·16,171 views

Now, this is a very interesting topic, that most LOL players seem to get wrong (especially in low elo). I have gotten chat restrictions, bans for being toxic towards those who accused me of "inting", and didnt know what it meant. I have also recived a ton of reports for "inting" throughout my days on League, and 1 out 10 times, i might have "inted", allthough i wasnt running it down. So, to make it clear, inting is when a player loses his life over and over again purposefully, and NOT when a player is being outplayed by a better opponent, or mistakenly losing his life by a missclick or whatever. Before you instaclick that report button, maybe consider whether your teammate actually inted, or just had a bad game/had a better opponent.

Inting can be one death btw.

Inting is described as dying purposefully, it doesn't have to be continuous deaths.

You can't get banned unless you are really inting - meaning going 0/20, 1/15 or something like that

And also they don't give chat restrictions for Inting, that's right to 14 day and then perma.

I might have formulated it wrong, because it doesnt seem like you guys get the point... :D I wrote "inting" in quotationmarks, cuz that wasnt the reason why.. but ok

It was more of a broad comment about the state of the punishment system, wasn't sure if you'd actually inted or not with the quotes. Its sad, but people do come here bragging about inting and getting away with it.

Well, i didnt get banned for inting, i got banned for losing my s*it over players who accused me for inting, you feel me?

You don't need to loose your shit (though physically speaking, loosing your shit is a good thing) from people accusing you of inting. The system is capable of filtering out false reports and will discard those reports.

So don't worry about people accusing you of things you didn't do. This applies to verbal and gameplay stuff.

So whether or not it's intentional, lots of death mean you're inting.

KnejjtJan 28, 20192 votes

No, not at all, thats my point, what you are thinking, is what a lot of other players think aswell, and that is indeed wrong.

Just an FYI, I know this isn't inting.

Having a bad score doesn't mean you're inting. It's the **intent **that matters, not your KDA.

If your score is 1/15 in 20min game bruh you inting

20 deaths is 20 deaths worth of gold and experience handed to the other team. How it happened doesn't change the amount of gold and experience handed to the other team.

There are options. Account ban, rank demotion, rank promotion for the superior player, low priority queue. Riot doesn't do anything. Too afraid of hurting some feelings.

inting is not the same as feeding although more often than not it results in feeding. inting is instigating fights whether that be due to being out of your skill depth vs your opponent or willfully making poor decisions. If primarily your actions precipitate numerous unfavorable engagements then youre inting.

inting is premeditated feeding that isnt the same as TILTING OFF THE EDGE OF THE EARTH. feeding is a whole different dimension that revolves THAT person is bullied by the enemy team the most or/and makes poor decisions.

Omg yes, like i can do good or decent 1000 games in a row even, but when i start losing one match, go 1/4/5 or something, i start getting cussed out that I'm an inter. Like this community is really, really just a bunch of idiots. The report itself even says "intentionally" which means with intent. On purpose. I'm not perfect! I don't win every game. And even if i go 1/50 as long as im trying I'm not "inting" god.. this has bugged me for so long >.>
