Pingspam, dodgers, and other things that annoy me

Pretty much just a vent post. So prepare for that.

The two things that bug me the most in League of Legends the most right now are... Well you've read the title so you know. Pingspammers are incredibly frustrating for me to deal with because a noise sensitivity I suffer from. If there's noise, my ability to concentrate is drastically affected by it. If there's pingspam happening, the sound will distract me and make me play far worse while it's happening. Just make one damn ping at a time. I'll get the idea.

Dodgers are frustrating as all hell too. I have a fair bit of patience, but having to wait more than 15 minutes to get into a game is ridiculous. All because of people not hitting ready when the game queue's them up, or because people didn't lock in a ban/champ.

Trolls are terrible too. People with no intention of playing the game, and with every intention of annoying as many people as possible. Honestly this is fairly low on the list of things that annoy me because I don't see them very often.

Toxic players always annoy the hell out of me too. They take the game far too seriously and tend to get annoyed at other players for even the smallest mistakes, yet they defend their actions by saying things like "get a thicker skin." Kind of ironic I suppose.

I made a post about a possible solution to pingspamming being a separate punishment system restricting your ability to ping based on abuse reported by other players, as well as a timelog of the pings to show when it was spammed. It was kind of meh though, no upvotes or downvotes. People seem to want less regulation of behavior because of the creeping sensation of Big Brother, but also have complaints like yours.
