Don't know how this phrase has suddenly became so popular with todays youth, but I pretty well see this term used in every single game with a toxic individual.
How is Kill yourself not a bannable offence? This is really an OK term by you in comparison to "GG ez", Riot?
Kei14318 votesIt is punishable.
Sarutobi13 votesAs far as I know it is, at least you can report people for it. Where are you getting at that it's not?
MrPharmD17 votesHe isn't getting it from anywhere. He is just trying to circle jerk the "omg toxic" community for upvotes.
Remlap12232 votesI dunno why you were downvoted. It's obvious that is the case. Everyone knows after the Dunkey incident that telling anyone to kill themselves can get you banned.
Telephone Booth1 votesThats why he got downvoted. It is punishable obviously, so why make a post asking why its not? Its a stupid question. Downvoted.
MrPharmD1 votesYeah, he was talking about me, not the OP.
Reading comprehension too strong.
Telephone Booth1 votesAhh I see now. My forum skills are not good.
iamthegoatofwar1 votesWell lets take a time out on this. Far as I know dunky got banned for literally typing out to kill yourself not KYS. Not trying to start an argument on this just trying to get some facts straight.
MrPharmD1 votesBecause my comment doesn't provide a safe spot.
AraMoOse8 votesOf course it's punishable. Why would you even think it isn't?
Remlap12234 votesUpvote farming.
Melledoneus8 votesDidn't you know? "KYS" stands for "Keyori Sucks."
Jokes aside, nobody should ever wish death upon another person. Even worse is to advocate suicide. It can push anybody who's on that line over the edge...

It is kinda hard to use that though.
I never condone using any toxic comments, moreso ones wishing death, and I know I am a hypocrite at times since I do lose my cool just like anyone does.
But at the same time, someone has bigger issues if a random stranger that is literally a nobody and means nothing to you is enough to set you over that edge. I feel for those people and hope their issues can be fixed and they can be happy, but at the same time I don't have much pity for the ones that a random stranger can make them go that far. Why care what a random nobody says? Moreso one that can't even see you? They are literally just text on your computer screen, that is literally as far as a nobody can possibly be. I know its more sensitive than that but still, if a loved one or someone close said that to me, I would get depressed, if someone I know said that I would get mad, if someone I don't know but actually can see said that, I would be pissed, but someone I can't even see that I don't know? I would laugh at them and block them.
This is kinda similar to the whole "Grow some thick skin" vs hypersensitive carebears debate you see a lot on the forums. Both are technically not wrong nor right either. You should never be so easily offended by something a random says to you so "growing a thick skin" isn't exactly false since there is rude people in the world and learning how to ignore it or at least deal with it is a good thing to have. This also doesn't mean you should be throwing toxic behavior around and use it as an excuse, but at the same time, you shouldn't be a carebear that anything that isn't praise to you you take as an insult, that is equally as foolish. Both have truth to them but neither are for a fact correct.
Melledoneus4 votesYou have a point, however...
You have to remember that when somebody is already dealing with issues and having suicidal thoughts, even the smallest thing can push them over the edge. So when they play League of Legends for comfort and they can't find that comfort and find the opposite instead, it might not be the final straw but it could be a contributing factor to being what adds to the person's negative feelings. You have to remember that sometimes people in that mind set soak up negative feelings like a sponge, and you're just making it worse when they're having a bad game and you tell them to advocate taking their own life.
It doesn't have much to do with being a "hypersensitive carebear." People thinking about suicide are obviously not thinking about the future they could have or anything that would give them reason to live for. So while it's easy to say "grow some thicker skin, it's just the internet," it's not as easy to remember that some people don't have the luxury or mindset to avoid it affecting them. Hell, I'm the most thick-skinned of them all when it comes to jerks on the internet, but sometimes players get under my skin, too. It's because you put in effort and you know you didn't do well enough, so that flesh is exposed and there is no skin to go through at times. In theory, it's correct that yes, you shouldn't listen to some man-child on the internet and their toxic mouth. But when it actually happens, the situation would end up being too much to handle for some people.

Kiss your sister? It's not a very appealing suggestion, but certainly not bannable.
zlumpy3 votescrap it means "kill your self"?....and here I've been demanding "King Yorrick Speeches" from people!! (Jk couldn't help myself)
like others said it is bannable.
iisabrina2 votesbecause its KYS and its probably not filtered. And someone can just say they were referring to some other acronym to a support ticket. If they type the words out thats different.
Sarutobi3 votesbecause its KYS and its probably not filtered. And someone can just say they were referring to some other acronym to a support ticket. If they type the words out thats different.
Acronyms are not filter. It would be the same as using %%%, ghey, fcuk. You may think you are smart enough by bypassing th censors but it's pretty obvious what you are trying to say by using KYS!
iisabrina2 votesIts a computerized system, the person who designed it (he is on here/ the forum) is not a very bright person. It will miss these acronyms . The actual review by a moderator nearly never happens.
GaleWinUnleashed7 votesGet over your personal vendetta already.
iisabrina1 votesIts not about a vendetta, the tribunal system will not filter out these mixes, and very rarely does a human triggered review occur/
AraMoOse5 votesYou seem to know a lot about how the system works. Care to provide a source for your bullshit information?
iisabrina2 votesI can, but,
No, not worth responding to you. Just another disgruntled bronze.
AraMoOse5 votesYou have not provided a source for me to look at, just a bald assertion.
aj502 Oneill4 votesYou have not provided a source for me to look at, just a bald assertion.
Bald? Now that was uncalled for!
:D
iisabrina2 votesLike I said, You already claimed it as bullshit before even seeing a source. If I tell you the earth completes a full rotation on its own axis over 24 hours without a source is it false? No.
Why wont I provide you with a source? #2 and Who are you to make me care enough to dig through my comments and search history and provide sources? Nobody.
Telephone Booth3 votesYa i dont care about providing sources either... the information i have is from the same source you have (the boards) so go dig through and find out that youre wrong. They can tell when you try to be clever and purposely misspell a word, theyve said it before.
AraMoOse3 votesThe difference is that I am not claiming to know how the system works. He is.
Telephone Booth2 votesYa... I wasn't even directing that at you. I'm trying to tell Sabrina that they do detect acronyms and purposely misspelled words. Can I guarantee it? No, I can only go off of what they've said and they have said they catch that stuff.
iisabrina1 votesI can promise you they dont detect acronyms. And even if you do, you can argue with the tribunal that your acronym was for something else.
You cant do that for something like "fuck you ya stupid cuck"
AraMoOse2 votesAh I see, thanks for the clarification. Hey are you the telephone booth from the movie with the guy in the telephone booth? Not the Matrix, the other one..
Telephone Booth1 votesNo I'm the telephone booth that turns into a murderous robot from awesomenauts.
iisabrina1 votesI have more valid sources than you do, its not just the boards.
But again as you expressed, you have uncertainty.
Uncertain information is meaningless in an argument.
If you are uncertain the sun will rise tomorrow, whether someone on a forum says it will or wont on a forum, it is irrelevant information on an argument about the potential of the sun rising tomorrow.
AraMoOse4 votesStill waiting for the sources.
I don't get the impression you are really qualified to lecture me on epistemology.
The reason we know the Earth takes slightly more than 23 hours and 56 minutes (not 24 hours as you claim) is because we have EVIDENCE that can be verified. The same is true for why we can accurately predict the time of the Sunrise : We understand how astronomical bodies operate through observation and measurement. Not because some dude said so on the internet while finding excuses not to provide his sources.
iisabrina1 votesExactly you have evidence, YOU do, but even if you did not have EVIDENCE, the facts would still be the same.
So just because I refuse to provide YOU evidence (and you know the reason), doesnt make the facts true.
Is that simple enough for you to understand.
AraMoOse4 votesTo be clear, you are refusing to provide ANYONE with any evidence for your claims.
Also I'm not really interested in being your Philosophy teacher, but a Fact is by definition true.
If you're going to try to explain to me your theory of knowledge, I really invite you to read up on the basics at the very least. I can recommend René Descartes, Karl Popper, Immanuel Kant and David Hume.
If that is too advanced for you, you could always start with Socrates and Plato. It would be extremely beneficial to you and you might be taken a bit more seriously.
AraMoOse3 votesI do understand, you don't have any sources behind what you're trying to say. So you make up excuses not to provide them.
I'm still waiting by the way, I've scrolled down all the way through this thread and I still find no sources. Just unsubstantied claims.
MeilinII1 votesIf this is your ending, you really didn't win this debate, regardless of what you may think. [slayer-jinx-wink]
AraMoOse3 votesSo no evidence, no sources. That's really a shame.

Yes, and throw in some Camus and Sartre to round him out old chap!
This is a hilarious argument.
AraMoOse3 votesSo you don't have any sources..
And your comment history is not a source. I meant credible sources..
FurriesAreHot1 votesExactly.
GaleWinUnleashed3 votesHe's welcome to his opinion, but there is a point where pasting it all over the boards becomes excessive.
*pastes signature yet again* https://i.imgur.com/1HvNiEO.png?noredirect
FurriesAreHot1 votesdid you make that sig yourself?
GaleWinUnleashed2 votesIt was made for me by "I Heart Katarina" (formerly "The Dunk God"). All I told him when asking for it was that my name was a slight variation on one of Janna's quotes, and he got back to me in half an hour with this piece of art. I've pasted it on every single comment since.
FurriesAreHot1 votesNeat
Doctrorpheus1 votesTelling someone to kill themselves is punishable.
I don't know if KYS is.
INoble KnightI2 votessaying kys is the shorthand version of kill yourself
