PSA: If you think like this you might get punched in the face

So, one of the most common arguments used by some of our toxic comrades to justify their overly salty moments (which usually happen in the /all chat) goes along those lines:

> So if you express yourself, even as you would in real life amongst friends or any REAL people in any REAL social situation, you're deemed "toxic".

I just wanna point out to the ones who ACTUALLY BELIEVE IT, that if in the middle of a interaction with a stranger (be it in a conversation, be it in a game such as basketball), you just tell them they they are (and i'll use one example I've had recently directed towards me, as I honestly appreciate the creativity) an "Inbreed fucking retard who should unplug himself from lifesupport", you are likely to get punched in the face.

I'd honestly recomend that if you truly believe this is ok in a social scenario, you take a class in social dynamics. Or go and try to field test it. I'm sure you will get a nice eye opener.

Riot doesn't expect you to talk to people as if you were talking to little kids, but rather behave yourself as a reponsable adult. The only difference is that instead of punching you in the face, Riot chat-restricts or bans you.

So before you go around just "trash talking, bro", think: would this lead me to get my face punched into the back of my skull? If the answer is yes, don't type it. Simple as that.

Nicely put but no toxic dildo would actually read it and act by it.

As for the punch in the face.. that'll be more of an eye closer than opener in my opinion... :-D

lol, i will have to say your example is creative, but trash talking is something like you're darius and telling them they just got dunked when you win the trade. Most players have a rage problem , are way too serious about the game ( i'm not saying don't play to win but win or lose with some dignity), or need to hit puberty.

ok what about telling someone who is being disruptive "shut the hell up" this will get you chat restricted if you do it in enough games

More like an eye closer. Lol. Because if someone did that, they going to get knocked the hell out and have a nice swollen eye and shiner as well. Lol. Maybe they will have their eye that is not swollen shut opened. :-p

Eh - what you say isnt what gets you punched in the face... it's how you look. If you are a bigger guy ... chances are you wont get punched in the face. If you are a scrawny nerdy kid - yeah ... maybe you will.

If you think people would punch you in the face, I would suggest getting off LoL - and getting under a bench press.

The OP is threatening toxic people with proposed physical violence.

"Don't be toxic on the game, or you'll get punched in the face!"

The fact is that they use the same arguments IRL. They're the ones being educated by the alt-right, who think their "right to free speech" allows them going around being rude fucks first, then slowly turning into criminals.

here's the difference. In REAL life, if you don't like what the fuck is going on. You can just leave, nobody is forcing you to stay. can you just "leave" games where you got trolls or other flamers on hackers in it? no, coz the rito's awesome system goes highroad and thinks you are the trash it needs to get rid off.

to begin with the online medium is not the same as real life medium. We are more likely to act more strongly towards what we feel like due to less amount of "consequences". Yet at the same time, we are quite limited in what we can do.

Not only you are forced to put up with people you don't like in your team. You are forced to cooperate with them if you want to win. This create a very negative environment in case something bad happens. Because it keeps cascading on itself until the game ends. Its like playing Plague. Inc. You set up a disease and it keeps going on and on and on and on. Sure, you might now "win" but you definitely hurt a lot.

Riot is also encouraging bullshit behavior though their LCS games where they glorify bad manners, trash talk between players, showing off and so on. It would be pointless to explain you why they do this in a way you could understand unless you got some knowledge of human psychology and economics. Sry.

the only reason riot is so restrictive on what you say in the game is because the game is 13+ and moms dont want their kids to be bullied.The only reason i cant fully enjoy league of legends as much as i do other games as an adult is because of this.competitive games were always meant to have trashtalking in them riot just wants to protect the kids. I know some tryhard will pop out of nowhere to tell me that he is an adult plays ranked every game and doesnt want trashtalking in his ranked games but most probably this guy stopped enjoying the game long ago...

I don't give a fuck about a 1/12/1 ryze supports feelings after wasting 40 minutes of my time.

I wouldn't be punched in the face for it.

And almost everything you say will be toxic.
