Solution to make games less toxic

I was thinking yesterday and came to this solution: Why not just automatically censor everything that's considered offensive in chat?

tl;dr: Swear filter is on by default, it's trivial to evade, people who can't be tox in chat will start inting and doing other stuff.

A few reasons.

  • It's trivial to bypass a filter.
  • People will find new ways to insult/harass each other.
  • Non-offensive language can be used in an offensive manner.
  • Important communication information (he's 2-0, gank top, we're down the jungler, etc) can becomes harassment if you use it in a specific fashion.

There is a chat filter already

like a filter... or better yet.. do away with chat altogether.

I am not being sarcastic. based on riots ban policy that i only found out recently after years of play. you too can be banned over stupid one game instances cuz apparently riot is run by tumbler

Duwahh That seems like a good idea. (Already has it) How about just making the chat really fucking small where you don't notice it? Or just do what riot's been telling everyone to do (Mute and Report)

Why not try using : /mute all When the game starts , and you wont see toxic people (in the chat).
