Riot bans people for being toxic to people intentionally feeding

Kobrabilities·Sep 16, 2017·1 votes·1,019 views

How am i supposed to respond to someone who is feeding in a ranked game but wont get banned for that? Why not make someone want to quit the game when they are that shit at the game that they have to ruin other peoples games and riot wont ban them for feeding like how does this make sense to anyone? Swear to god this game is the physical representation of what is wrong in the world today. You cant talk shit to anyone without them getting buthurt and you getting autobanned by a bot because it just so happens riot consistently puts people who are no where near your skill level on your team but you skill level or above on the other team. So i guess instead of flaming the idiots who got put in my game i should be flaming riot and suing for this god damn migraine they are intentionally giving me? Is Rito intentionally feeding and not them?

Feeding is not reportable and not punishable. Being bad at the game isn't reportable. If they're intentionally feeding that's different.

Further, your toxic communications are not just seen by the person they're directed at, but your whole team had to be subjected to your toxicity.

bro youre exactly the problem with the game. toxicity isnt wrong or bad deal with it and suck it up like people in the real world

Riot created this game for people to have fun. It is competitive in nature, but it is still a game.

In the 'Real World' people are held to a standard of sportsmanship when participating in competitions. Here you are still expected to behave in a sportsmanlike manner like you would in any other competitive sport.

If you act in a toxic manner and hurt other people's fun, then of course you are going to be kicked out. You'd best learn how to shape up or you'll get yourself permanently banned.

Can you give an instance where being "toxic" was at all helpful?

When playing and practicing the game can lead to improvement.

You don't seem to be grasping the concept of 'other people' very well. Are you aware that every other person out there is living a life as vibrant and complex as your own life is? Everyone is the main character in their own life, and treating others like secondary characters in your life will not help you to get through it. You will push them away and ostracize yourself, and it will be harder to advance in life both with careers and relationships.

Case in point, if you got banned for acting this way towards teammates who were playing poorly, then you should take that as a sign that doing so doesn't work. Maybe you should consider stopping.

Name one activity you weren't ever bad at. Just one.

If someone is struggling in a match then it's a problem with Matchmaking putting them in a game they didn't belong in. Getting mad at them over it makes no sense.

thats what i said maybe i should just sue riot for my constant migraines

DrCyanideSep 16, 20179 votes

Read the ToS, you gave up any right to sue them, you'd have to go to arbitration.
If you get migraines over this game then you either need to fix your graphics settings or cut back on how much time you spend playing.
If you're implying that you get migraines because of how bad other players are, you need to see a physiatrist, because you're taking way too much personal interest in something that doesn't matter that much.

Learn how to tell a joke and I'll happily take said joke.

oh and to answer your other question yes i have been bad at things and people have made fun of me for them or told me to quit, sometimes i did and it hurt, sometimes i didnt and i tried to get better . Because thats what normal people do. They deal with shit that people say thats life. just bc were playing a game doesnt make it different. dont need a fucking middle man to handle the problems of the game just let people say what they want if youre gonna let people play the way they want

People do good or bad in many of their matches, this does not necessarily make them unequivocally and permanently bad.

There are a million different reasons a player could be doing badly in any particular game:

Someone could just be having a bad game
could be tilted
or could be having some unusual internet service provider problems.
They could have just had a string of really bad games with teammates who didn't cooperate and who were extremely toxic.
They might be stressed out about something going on in their life at the time and are just more distracted and making more mistakes than usual.

They are living their own life, just like you and I are living our own lives as well. They aren't trying to ruin your game. They are probably as frustrated as you are that they are doing poorly that game. Stop taking every other peoples mistakes personally, they're just mistakes, not malicious attempts to ruin the game. They are doing it because they are genuinely struggling with the game, not because they want to 'hurt your fun.'

Look at it this way:

If your teammate is bad and you harass them while telling them the correct way to play, they will get angry with you and not listen - and they are more likely to play even worse. This will only make your game go worse.

If you instead show them patience and are friendly and helpful, they may very likely be open to your suggestions.

At the very least have a little sympathy for your fellow human beings. Their lives are just as vibrant, complex and frustrating for them as your own life is for you.

Maybe it's better if you just stick to single player games instead.

So first off, it's tough to determine when someone is truly inting. Next, I'm not of the opinion that flaming/harassing them has any benefits to anyone's game performance. In fact, what you said may have made the team worse. At some point, inting and toxicity can become closely intertwined.

It's difficult to say someone was intentionally feeding based off what I see in your most recent game. Builds and kda seem normal for a bad game.

nah it wasnt just that game it was 3 games

JeLLöSep 16, 20174 votes

So, you are a bronze 3 player who thinks flaming people who are bad is okay (for record, you are in bronze 3 and are bad so you might as well flame yourself right?). Your last game was a 0-7-0 vayne. I am SURE you flamed yourself for feeding? I mean, you have to see the irony here right?

I am going to give you a little example on why you are just plain wrong to do what you do:

Season 2 and first 1/2 of season 3 I was a toxic SOB and stuck in silver 4. I got a 10 game chat restriction, reformed, and shot up to plat 2 in a flash. Being toxic literally makes you and your whole team worse. Simple fact. If you are thinking about typing and they are reading and responding that means no one is focusing on the actual game. Don't even try to argue. Instead of blaming other people for your own issues how bout you man up.

if they're intentionally feeding report them. if they're feeding because they're having a bad game, just try to compensate with roaming and helping them catch up or accelerate laning phase and take towers so that your teammate has some breathing room to catch up on cs and exp.

If someone is intentionally feeding in your game, you simply report them at the end-game lobby and explain the situation to the report system. IFS will handle the rest and if he continues his behavior it will be punished. You do not flame or attack the person, as fire vs fire does nothing but cause a wildfire and makes the experience even less enjoyable for others.

PS: As Cher said, unintentionally feeding is not punishable, and being toxic to them will do nothing but make the team even more tilted and miserable, which isn't okay.
