More toxic than ever... I stopped playing... I played today only 3 games and I am officially out...

So, in May I decided to quit the game... never to play again... it's a good game as a video game... but the people playing it make it so HORRIBLE that it's the only good video game I actually HATE... I played a couple of games in August one day... and then today and yesterday a few more... now I can honestly say that I NEVER want to play this game again... I've been playing since season 2... there was toxicity back then... quite a lot of it... but nothing like how the game is now... now everyone playing is a screaming kid that when he loses he screams and curses and breaks his keyboard over and over and over... and the worst thing is that after a while you just can't take it anymore and you answer them... and then people tell you "but you're just like them"... NO... I'm not like that... I am not a crying kid that curses people... and the thing is that the fact that I have been made to drop F-bombs from time to time says a lot about this damn toxic game...

Nowadays the most toxic players have become the role models for all the kids out there that wanna play... the guys that curse and swear at you and tell you about how you're gonna suck the imaginary thing they think they have between their legs... these guys... It was always annoying that people only looked at your score and cursed you even if you played better than them... I mean a 3/3 score is better than a 10/8 score... because if you died 8 times you certainly don't know how to stay alive... so you don't know how to carry a team... not to mention the idiots that scream at SUPPORTS for having 0/5... I'm a freakin support... I AM SUPPOSED TO HAVE 0 KILLS!!!... anyway, these guys were always there and I can live with them... but now in every game people scream about everything... and they curse worse and worse every season... now I get the first F-bomb in 3-5 mins... this is ridiculous... and don't tell me about mute... mute in NOT a solution... it's a TEAM game... if I wanted to play a solo game I would play something like Resident Evil on my PS console... I wouldn't be playing a click click game that the only REAL meaning it has is the STRATEGY part... without team play this game is utter crap...

Just because people scream and curse and are toxic all the time and never think about how to play but only about how to complain and scream and shout and curse and break their keyboards, if you play let's say 3 hours a day for a whole month, you would probably play 2-3 games that were actually good games... 2-3 games that you would actually enjoy and say yeah, I don't care if I won or lost I just wanna play another game like this...

Anyway, I just think that RIOT and all the companies out there should be held accountable for the toxic environment they have created... I am 27 years old... but there are 8 year olds and 10 year olds that play this game... and all they see in the chat is F-bombs and cursing of families and mothers and how people should die from cancer... this is NOT acceptable... if people can't hold their anger they should be BANNED...

I personally now play Guild Wars 2... you know why? Because it has the least toxic community out of all the online games I've ever played... and BY FAR... I've played PvP there... we've lost many times in structured PvP and I'm not a great player... but I've never seen any teammate of mine curse me like this... also, people that play this game are so casual and friendly... we coexist... and we have fun... here even the players that play CASUAL games... meaning Normal games are acting like they are thirsty for blood... THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE... and the problem is the company... do SOMETHING about it... make the penalties harsher... make the Pros that all these idiot kids love do a campaign against toxicity... do SOMETHING... but no... nothing... never...

Well, I hope one day some parent will make a nice law suit against them for this and they pay up a few millions... it's the only way the companies are gonna be forced to make the online environment non-toxic... companies learn only by losing money... there is no other way...

Have a good day... this game has ruined mine for today at least...

Well I mean, 10/8 is better than 3/3... if I have 3 kills and 3 deaths, I sure as hell can't seem to get a kill without dying where as if I'm 10/8 I at least managed to get 2 kills at one point before dying or I got caught out too many times.

Also, if there are 8-10 year olds playing this game then that is the PARENTS fault, not Riots. Last I checked, League of Legends was rated T, meaning Teen. Not E for Everyone.

It isn't against the law. I'm so confused by this. So someone said something mean, you do what you're supposed to do. Mute and report. You enjoy the game much more if you do. I honestly haven't run into any toxicity in a while. The game is what you make of it.
