Just as the title says, this community can be really bad and I really think Ive breached and discovered the rock bottom of what it has to offer. I played casual blind pick 3v3s since I got sick of try harding as my main and carrying in ranked, so instead I just play random champs to earn hextech chests....but I dont think anything I did was really troll like? I still ended up really triggering some people when I played Annie and Jhin , for annie I just completely got wrecked by ori, losing half my health bar as soon as i get back up to tower so I get designated as a troll by my Ryze and then get name called and flamed at by him

Then when I play Jhin top lane against Kled ..it went pretty well, until the enemy LeeSin camps me because he can flank me easily since we had no jungle *the guy who flamed me went Thresh bot this time with Kennen but lost lane aswell due to LeeSin ganks and fed me. The entirety of the second game, our Thresh flames me and the only thing mean thing I ever said back to him was bronze border but does not respect , I never flamed him, I explained my point of view and what was going on in the game, but he called me soloque scum.

Then he adds me after the game, so I thought he was just joking in game and was cool..so I said (whats up) he then says that he needed to add me to block me so he doesnt get stuck in another game with me ...so I said xD okay bye....he then says "work on your attitude my friend, I believe in reform" But I never had a bad attitude and was just trying to have casual fun and see if I can pick up a random S ;-;

And no I`m not reporting him because I do believe he was recently flamed or something or had an off day.

What did you guys experience?

Normally I'm fairly thick-skinned, more than other people, at least. Typically when I get flamed on League, I'll become mildly annoyed at the most. If there's one thing that really gets to me though, it's people who use autism as an insult. I won't go into too much detail, but autism is a disorder that usually makes people just extremely socially awkward, that's usually about it. Even in the most severe cases, an autistic person is hardly less intelligent than average, they just seem childish. But yet people are using it like it's a horrible thing or like autistic people are stupid.....which we're not. Actually, some of the most intelligent and important people in history are believed to have possibly had autism. Einstein, Lincoln, Hitchcock.....the list goes on. So, yeah.... being diagnosed with Asperger's(a high-functioning form of autism), I really don't appreciate it. It's basically the same as being racist or homophobic. There's actually a word for it: albeism. Of course, I know sometimes people are just joking or playfully teasing. When this is the case, it's pretty obvious so I just let it slide or sometimes even play along. It's different when it's serious though. And before you ask: Yes, when I see albeists I typically just mute them and destroy them in game while they waste effort typing. Then when I win the game, I retaliate with something like: "You just lost to a guy with autism. Learn your place, albeist". So, I'm not going to act like I'm a helpless victim or like there's nothing I can do to keep people from getting under my skin. Regardless, I really, REALLY don't appreciate that this is becoming a thing. Using autism as an insult is an idiotic trend that needs to die. I'd say it needs to be reportable, but I think it might already fall under "hate speech".

Very much agreed, that new trend needs to die down. I get the feeling that its because Autism is being more understood and found in more people nowadays, people have picked up the term and so they just go and make it whatever the heck they feel like. Similar to the word "gay"..... That used to just mean happy pretty much. Then it was used in a derogatory way of being attracted to the same gender and now is mostly just used to generally say that someone likes the same gender as them.

Im seeing the word "autism" to follow the same trend, people will be using it in a derogatory way because they do not understand it and they think its funny to try and "tilt" people by saying someone is that. They also do not care.

I find that is the biggest issue with quite a few people especially in game.... Because people think that because they are in a game, they can do what they want, where they want, how they want, and say what they want any time....... All under the false pretenses of "well they just need to toughen up if some words online upset them". People do this in real life too but normally they can actually see the reaction they get..... Which results in a punch to the face, to losing possibly good friends, to the other person breaking out in tears. All because the person was wanting to try to be funny/purposefully hurt the other person.

In game as i said before and i will reitterate, people tend to think theres a safety net. Nobody believes what people say online right? Nobody takes anything seriously, and if they do then it will just be funny right? Often times this is the case..... But then theres those times that you will never know if your cyber bullying results in people hurting themselves or others.

Id say THAT is what tilts me the most about how the chats have been going recently.... People have just stopped caring about anyone or anything other than themselves and the game. People used to honor almost every game.... Used to be able to see quite a few red and green ribbons all over....... But now, i hardly ever see any at all. Why? Because people are so worried about getting to that next game, or because someone didnt do as well as you want you report them even if it was their first game with that champion in normals..... The list there is endless i assure you. Even those that do deserve some teamwork or honorable opponents dont get them because people get so self concious.

This is just one of many examples that im sure can be thought up..... But honestly its just rediculous that in a game people treat it like theres no people on the other side of the monitor and think their words dont mean or do anything....... Otherwise they are TRYING to make the enemy tilt to result in an easier game for themselves..... Which just irks me.

By the way, I normally do it under the unsportsman like conduct and harrassment because it truely is both.

Really interesting, Im pretty sure that is reportable under multiple categories including hate speech. I really think the only people who would use this in a form of a put-down would be those who , like you are distressing, dont understand the term and what it actually is. Pretty sure most people just think its an intelligent way of saying you are being dumb when in reality its them lol.

You know, now that I'm thinking about it, I can't remember what the most toxic thing I've seen is. I'm sure there were games that stood out to me at the time, but I think it's actually a good thing I can't remember. Toxicity will always, eventually, fade into irrelevancy.
