What the fuck is the point of chat if you aren't allowed to speak your mind

Calling out the feeding bot lane for feeding isn't being toxic its being fucking honest.

Like my last game these fucking turds at bot lane feed up the ass and then blame me the jg for not ganking when the support goes fucking Mundo with a vision score that's the lowest on the team then he wonders why hes getting ganked and then blames the fucking jg for not helping, even though there pushed up the ass WITH NO FUCKING WARDS.

Heres the fucking punch line. I get a 14 day ban for defending my self against these %%%% waffles who clearly are gutter trash feeders that need an excuse to feel better about themselves because they feel everyone is trash and they are perfect. I can't even speak my fucking mind.

you can speak your mind all you like, but if you insult someone while doing it its punishable. pre read what youre about to enter into chat. if its offensive, don't hit enter.

Saying something that needs to be said is fine, and sometimes even welcome. People who make threads like this one don't understand what actually needs to be said. You are part of a team, and while yelling at someone might make you feel better it ruins your team's chances of winning.

Speaking your mind is fine when you're actually saying something worth listening to, but when you're just having a temper tantrum no one is really going to care, and you should probably keep quiet.

It's not what you said. It's how you said it. It's a shame you weren't taught that growing up.

Calling out kids at soccer for sucking is being honest too, yet anyone doing it would rightly be frowned upon. There's no benefit to calling people out for being bad. It doesn't achieve anything. If you'd muted them and just played the game would have gone exactly the same way and you wouldn't have a ban. Isn't that a preferable option?

Honesty can certainly be toxic. Something being "honest" does not make it not toxic. As an example, if you follow someone on the street screaming about them being fat, that can be brutally honest, but it's also being a dick.

Look, this is a video game. You're going to win and you're going to lose. You have to learn how to be not only humble in victory, but gracious in defeat (as the Summoner's Code puts it). Just because your losing doesn't mean you have to start blaming others - not only does it just make people feel like shit but it doesn't do anything to help you win (and it actually turns your chance of a turnaround to basically zilch). You have no right to make fun of others - you're all at a similar MMR, you all have similar skill, and even if they're intentionally feeding responding does no good whatsoever.

Calling out the feeding bot lane for feeding-

And what exactly is that supposed to do?

I'm locking this thread as it's clear OP isn't in a state where they're able to have a constructive discussion about this issue. I'd encourage everyone to ensure that, if they're going to post a thread, to do whatever they need to do to ensure they have an open mind and are able to discuss without insults or demeaning others.

If you have any questions about this please do not hesitate to contact us in the Boards Moderation Discord server.

I don't care if honesty hurts your feelings. The truth isn't always pretty. If you can't handle it without crying a river, you're clearly not mature enough to play games online with other people around the world. Grow the hell up, and then you may play.

No, you got a 14 day ban for toxicity, something you agreed not to do when you made an account. If you want to talk about exactly how or why, post the chatlog that appears when you log in and we can go over it.

I can't even speak my fucking mind.

Summoner's Rift is a place to play a game, not have an extended discussion about how shit your teammates are. If you can't handle that, you need to go play a different game.
