I been playing off and on for about a week now. Mind you, just strictly bot matchs. Being told I suck is one thing, that's kind of expected. HELLO.. NEW PLAYER.. Having informed them of my newbie status at the champion selection screen. Kinda obvious that I am going to suck. Being told something I already know, doesn't help any. It just makes things worse. Then there's being harassed about it. And then there's post game comments, uninstall / do league of legends a favor and never come back. Insert racist or witty sexist comment somewhere either before, middle, or after said statement.

This particular mindset is very harmful to this game, because if no new blood is going to join it and play it, then this game will die out. Perhaps its for the best though. After all, with egotistical shitheads having delusions of grandeur because of the bot addons they have installed on their computer to play for them.. and are incapable of either teaching, sharing, or helping this game grow any. Well maybe they should get their accounts banned for bad publicity.

Good thing I never spent any $ on this, I was considering it. Not going to happen now.

As for the reason I am making this post.

I've become fed up with the overall attitude of players in this game, none have any respect for new people, or fresh blood. All they see is someone to either ridicule, harass, outright demean, degrade, or in other words: Bully. News flash for all you arrogant pricks. Everyone has to start fresh, with any game they go to play. Everyone is a newbie at some point in time.

There was a guy in my last match, who was clearly using a BOT to do everything for him. Having watched him for the 18 minutes that the last match lasted. Its kind of, a little impossible to use all 4 of your skills in a half a second. With complete accuracy on them, while running around. To the admin, watch my accounts last match. You'll see who I am referring to. Within a minute, I came to realize he had no interest whatsoever, in sharing the lane. I wasn't playing a support champ, and he clearly did not need any help. I left him the lane, so he could solo it as he clearly wanted. Then went to jungle a few minutes later. However, he added insult to injury. When I did go to jungle, guess who leaves his lane, and comes to kill what I was fighting. Wouldn't even let me have 1 kill. How bloody arrogant can you be?

Sorry Riot, but the truth be told. Most of the players it seems, at least in bot matchs. Are stuck up, ignorant, arrogant, self-centered, pricks. And since they seem to enjoy this game, at mostly other people's expense, I think perhaps I will uninstall. Just because I don't want to have to put up with crap, from the likes of them.

So who was this who used 4 abilities in half a second and was "clearly using a bot"? I notice you played with a Ryze in your last game, and he can in fact appear to be using an insane amount of abilities in a short time. Thats how his kit works. Not sure how you equate that to him being "arrogant".

I play plenty of bot games and I never have any issue whatsoever with "toxicity" there.

People making smurfs, playing with under level 30 players and expecting them to know what they are doing is a known issue. In every single competitive multiplayer game. I've been harassed by my teammates playing 10 placement matches for ranked in Rainbow 6 Siege, because according to them, unless I am skilled enough to be at least gold, I shouldn't even play ranked. Anyways, it's community problem, not game.

As for using all 4 skills in under a second, it's actually very easy on most mage and assassin champions. That is actually how many of them are meant to be played. Your confusion probably comes from you not understanding that you don't have to click on skills with a mouse to use skills. There is an option in games options you can choose, to auto cast skills on activation. The way it works, you press "q", "w", "e" or "r" and skill will be immediately cast in the direction of cursor or onto cursor location or on a champion that you have your cursor hovered over.
