double standards

Fyred··1 votes·526 views

why is it ok, to Flash your mastery, but not ok, to tell someone to go F' themselves? it's the same thing. when you're a little kid and say aww Fudge...ITS THE EXACT SAME THING AS SAYING IT, but I get a 14-day suspension cuz some kid lanes teemo top and I say a few things. your elo/mmr crap is busted and now we have double standards. you can flash the finger, but don't say it. that's all it is. League of Legends community is nothing but a pot full of toxic players waiting to report other players, and RIOT's crap system is to blame. You say everyone deserves respect in the Rift, but I can literally count the number of times I've actually been in an enjoyable game. 99% of the games are littered with toxic smurfs/ or little tattle tails that can't wait to hit that report button.

I prob need the 14-day suspension to detox myself from this game, its toxic community, and its horrible developers.

The fact that players have taken to using the Mastery emote to show they've won a fight (or to Mastery-Spam another player) does not mean it means the same thing as "go fuck yourself." You may be interpreting it that way, but it could mean any number of things, from "isn't this annoying when I spam this?" to "I just won that fight."

I've also seen it used in a manner of such, "I just nailed that fast combo and wrecked you" which the riven did, i was defenseless against it TT. But i had to admire the skill needed to do so

For an Archivist, you're really not that knowledgeable about the game.

You flash your mastery after you die to show how pro you are.

This is also very true. Thanks for reminding me. :P

Post your chat logs. I can almost guarantee that it wasn't "a few things"

Oh, no, I was being sarcastic, I was EXTREMELY toxic towards him, but that's what he gets for being teemo. This was also just a build up, from dealing with constant toxicity from players that do this(mastery flash) or that one last little EZ gg. RIOT wants to say we all deserve respect, but it doesn't matter how significant an issue is, the point is these players strive to tilt, to make you mad, to make you toxic. and then when it happens you step over the line and get chat restrictions or w/e.

I normally just mute players first sign of toxicity, not always. You get players that are looking to "Trigger" other players and then RIOT punishes them.

these players are just as responsible and should be punished alongside them.

Let me fix your post:

I was EXTREMELY toxic towards him, but that's because I'm immature and will probably try and blame other people for my actions. This was also just a build up, here's where I blame people for my actions instead of taking responsibility for them. RIOT wants to say we all deserve respect, but it doesn't matter to me what Riot says because I think that I'm able to blame others for my actions instead of muting the other players and/or taking responsibility for my tilt.

I normally just mute players first sign of toxicity, but when I don't I get tilted, am toxic, and then try and blame other players. You get players that are looking to "Trigger" other players and then RIOT punishes them for being toxic because they were toxic.

these players are just as responsible and should be punished alongside them but I refuse to admit that they may have been punished because I want to feel like it's not my fault.

Fixed your comment there. Stop trying to blame others. Mute toxic players. Report them after. If you retaliate, you get punished.

You refuse to listen to us. Not my problem.

Fyred1 votes

you say I refuse to listen, but you have done nothing, but "fix" my comment. I admitted to being toxic towards the teemo, and I probably said something that was reported in earlier games. That still doesn't change the fact that people like you, that look for that one thing to jump on, to make the other person tilt/toxic just so you can report them at the end.

Unfortunately, i want to get better at this game, it has a lot of "skill" based aspects of it, and that's what I like. I don't care if I win a match, I don't care if I lose a lane, what I care about it is how I played. but when I'm always facing gold ranks or higher that clearly have played this game way the hell more than me, and I spend the 20+ mins respawning at the graveyard, listening to my team call me trash, while the guy laning against me is constantly flashing his mastery 7, yeah, imma get a little pissed after a while.

I've played this game off and on a year or little more. I just now got t2 runes, cuz it was taking so long to get the t3 ones, and I'm with people that for some reason just assume I'm the best damn top there was in this game, even after I tell them from the start, I'm new to this champ/lane w/e.

if you are surrounded by toxic players you will be toxic. This game strives to make players toxic. Players like you.

See, I fixed your comment by replacing things you said that directly contradict things that are well known if you read any other posts here before posting your post. You continually try and blame others for the reason you get pissed, when the real problem is you can't control yourself and/or your emotions while playing League. You refuse to post your chat logs so we can see just how toxic you were, and maybe point out when you should have seen warning signs. This whole post and comments by you seems to be you searching for any hope that your effort to blame your teammates is not in vain. Well, news flash, it is.

You have many players here trying to help you, and you still, even in this most recent comment, return to refusing to mute, and "yeah, imma get a little pissed". If you're unwilling to accept our help, even after I sarcastically fixed your post with a compilation of how you could be more honest about the real problem, then there's nothing we can do to help you avoid punishment.

right, as I said, BUILD UP, i didn't blame anyone this game, I raged on teemo cuz he was teemo. didn't blame my team, didn't call anyone out, (beside teemo) I don't get how you can have so many problems reading the post....

Chermorg1 votes

"I raged on teemo" is all you should be saying. Saying "cuz" or "because he was teemo" is a type of tactic people use to, while not necessarily intentionally, shift blame to others for their own actions. Further, you're expressing that your flaming and/or toxicity was directed at one player in particular, which makes it even worse than if it was just general negativity.

not really double standards. How do you know flashing the emote is him/her just trying to tell you ' hey im level 7 '' dont worry if I win lane ''its because im level 7 im doing this'' oh just the enemy trying to tell you , he/she is good at the game lol. it doesnt have to be all negative ol

It is odd that this isn't something thats complained about more given how ridiculously sensitive the League community is. People freak out over "gg ez", but I don't really see how its all that different from mastery/emote spamming.

I feel you man, why is it OK for my neighbor to call me ugly but not OK for me to beat him with a bat?

/s pls no ban for me Riot.

No but seriously, emote spam and language like that are 2 very different things.
