Players Who Lie When Reporting

So I was in a game recently where I was playing as Sivir with a midlane Ahri and a Zac support. In game the Ahri got firstblooded by the enemy jungler when she was pushed up in lane. After 4 more minutes she died again and I died twice to the same jungler. She randomly called me out for being bad, and since I felt that was unfair, I replied something like "i think it's unfair for you to call me bad, we have the same amount of deaths and i'm 40 CS up on you at 12 minutes". Looking back, I realized making it a competition may not have been a good idea, as she instantly went all "aww boo boo but I have a kill, that puts me up 20 cs so I'm only behind you a little bit". For the rest of the game, she was acting very condescending to me and Zac joined in to all chat basically just saying "report sivir very toxic" and "shouting n-words at us the whole game, bad adc". I understood why they may have thought me to be a little toxic, but I never swore and when I talked i tried my best to be polite and diffuse the argument. After the game Ahri and Zac both reported me, Ahri because I was "feeding, toxic and retarded" and Zac because I was "shouting and flaming us with the N word all game". Honestly both of those to me are untrue and it just grinds my gears to see people randomly reporting a scapegoat (falsely) when they're tilted or they did badly. Anyways thanks y'all for reading this rant and if you've ever been in my position give this thread a thumbs up and get it out there :)

If you did not do anything wrong, then those two would be more likely to get into trouble rather than you.

People say stuff like that just to annoy you. Dont let them. That simple.

If they're harassing you and threatening to report you and make false claims and lies like that, like everyone says just ignore them and report them afterwards. Judging from the comment Zac and Ahri made, you should've probably just said "whatever" or something not exactly retaliating or the system may deem "Negative/Verbal abuse" and mute them instantly and report after. Trolls will be trolls especially the salty duos and solo idiots in general.

I've had many games with this happening to me especially having to deal with duo/trio etcs.. I made mistakes of flaming back honestly and I Got punished myself for retaliating. Even when you didn't start it or whatever, they only care about how you act upon it. Don't retaliate like I did and you're good and have nothing to worry about.

We had someone here on Player Behaviour who got himself banned for saying the N-word multiple times in All to blame an innocent Player.

Guess who got smited and Permabanned for this? He himself.

False Reports will never hurt you, at all.

I recommend reporting for 'negative attitude' in cases of unsportsmanlike conduct.

Lording your win over the enemy, badmouthing players on your team who aren't performing to someone else's expectations, refusing the help when angry, etc.

Basically, things that you wouldn't want to have on your own amateur softball or sports team.

And I hope no one tries to play the 'but there's trash talk in professional sports' card. Players get fined, penalized, hit with personal fouls, suspended, and even banned from their chosen sport for all sorts of unsportsmanlike and unacceptable behavior.

Take a look at NASCAR. Gentlemanly behavior is expected.

If you're playing racquetball at the club, and you ace your opponent and turn to him and say "get good, you're trash" you'll quickly find yourself without opponents to play with. It doesn't mean you're good. It means no one likes to compete against (or with) an asshole.

Yes, it's a 'video game'. But it's also an 'e-sport'. So I suggest we treat it like one. Expect people to be on half-decent behavior. It's not having 'thin skin'. It's separating the jerks from the like-minded enthusiasts.

Just my two cents.
