So I can't even play with my friends in the new competitive mode now?

I'm honor level 1. You must be honor level 2 to play in the competitve mode. I accepted that I wouldn't receive any borders or wards because of my dishonourable behavior - but now I don't even get to play with my own friends? How is this going to encourage positive behavior?

Honor sucks. I'm so tired of having to be nice to people who are assholes. I'm so tired of being afraid of trashtalking my opponents because I risk getting reported. That's one of the most fun parts of any competitve game! And if people don't want to be part of it they can always mute me. As I said, I accepted that I would not receive end of season rewards in exchange for getting to play the game with the attitude that I want, that seemed fair. But now I can't play with my own damn friends?

This is no longer about rewarding positive players, this is actively making the game a worse experience for those who don't follow the lead. This is not going to encourage a positive attitude in us that you see as "problem players" riot, this is just gonna make us lose patience with your system.

If you can't behave, I personally don't want you to play League at all. Good manners are not a question of personal preference. So I'm glad to hear Riot excluded you.

I have not heard anything about this. Considering Riot is against a Prisoner's Island mode, this may just be for the testing phase.

I'm so tired of the Mute button being used as an excuse for typing trash in game.

You might be toxic if ....you say I can be rude because of a button.

I know the next excuse is the if someone one is such a snowflake.... Blah Blah.

Nope if you can't be decent in a game it might be you not them.

Well first of all, if my behavior is not up to your standards then you can just choose to mute me.

Take your own advice. If their behavior is not up to your standards, you can just choose to mute them. Problem solved.

Keep up that attitude and you won't be playing on that account for long.

All honor will be reset to lvl2 at the beginning of season 8. You won't be able to play in the beta testing but you will be able to play after the mode is released early 2018. (if you don't fall to lvl 1/0 for a month)

maybe thats riots way of muting you toxic "trashtalkers" and removing you guys from the EXtra stuff. you dont get to be toxic and reap rewards. thats the problem with millenials you think you can do whatever you want and no consequences

Is it possible to play if I don't have any friends that have lol like a random team?

Listen, mom, if there was a restaurant that didn't allow smokers, you wouldn't be allowed to smoke in it, weather you go in there alone or with a friend. This is the same way, smoking hurts you and those around you, and so does "trash talk" now you can call people softies all you want, but the fact is, you are hurting people's feelings. Riot doesn't want you to do that, so instead of kicking you out of the restaurant right away, they give you a chance to stop smoking.

Now onto my quit smoking tips: 1- take it slow and smoke less cigarettes a day- Just kidding. Actual 1- You can curse and trash talk people irl instead of typing it in chat, that way you get it outta your system and you're allowed to play the game. 2- If your toxicity is mostly reactionary (mine was), start using /mute all at the start of each game. I know it feels bad, but trust me, not only will you stop being toxic, but you'll have peace of mind. 3- You have to realize that it doesn't matter, people wont do what you want regardless of weather or not you told them to. You just have no power over them.

Godspeed, friend, hope you're reunited with your friends soon.
