Quit League?

I've been playing this game since Season 3 and love it, but I just might quit because of things not even remotely related to the game itself. Over the past couple of seasons, the community has become increasingly intolerable. Toxic, sore loser, sore winner, easy to give up, unnecessarily unreasonable players have still plagued my games for ages now. In addition, the reporting system simply isn't effective anymore either. Sure it's better than the old system but there are still a plethora of unsportsmanlike players that end up both teams in my games. I just don't understand the value gamers place on League, bragging about playing on smurf accounts while having a higher ranking account anyway. Talking shit and belittling those at lower ranks simply because they are where they are. To think that these people actually believe that they are better or have higher value because of a VIDEO GAME is annoying, frustrating and amazingly stupid to deal with. Congratulations, you're better at a video game that you've spent hours playing and has no substantial value in the real world, want a cookie? Unless you're Challenger, I can't see myself believing or tolerating this kind of behavior much longer. Just like anything else, it's the people that make the environment much worse than it could be. Why play something that I enjoy, but can't stand fellow gamers?

Your sentiment about the egos and value that people put in their ability to manipulate virtual sprites with a mouse and keyboard sounds exactly like me lol. I always thought thats why its easy for me. Because I recognize why they talk shit and how petty and meaningless it is, because its such a pointless thing to be proud of. I thought thats why its so easy for me to brush it off and dismiss it and not give it any of my attention or emotional interest. Cant you just dismiss it like that? Why have you let it affect you? Not trying to sound like an ass or condescending in any way, honestly. Cant you just roll your eyes and carry on without letting it get to you? Write it off as some stupid fucking kid whos words mean literally nothing?

If you don't put a value on being good or bad at the game, then why do you let it bother you. People talk shit, call me names, and try to ruin my day, I type a lot of LOL's in the chat. I think it's funny and just enjoy myself.

Why not actively search for and play with people you enjoy?

yeah I find it doesnt bother me for awhile, but my 5th or 6th game in a row thats toxic or that I lose because we have an afk player gets me a little mad. 2 mission events ago there was one where I had to win a game with one of my mains, a champion whom I often S or S+ with, so easy mission right? well 5 games in a row I had an afk teamate, as I stayed up later thsn I wanted trying to get thst one win before the mission expired. so 2 hours of my life gone failing to complete the damn mission. the reward for that mission would have tipped me into being able to get a mission reward, but no. a series of people joined games they didnt want to play for no reason and screwed 4 other players. THAT gets me mad

People with poor attitudes are both not worth my time in game.
