You flame your teammates, spam MIA/? Pings on them: YOU earned your loss, not your target.

yeah, If you seem to think you are so far above your teammates that you flame and degrade them, Spam "enemy is missing"/?" Pings on them and call both teams to report a player for NOT jumping through the hoops you set out for them? Then guess what, The loss is on you. More and more I am muting my teams, pings and all. Anytime I take the chance and THINK I can get a team who actually go a match without shoving thier head up thier ass. I get proven wrong. Enemy demands a gank when they are last hit, I have no mana, and they are backing. If I dont immediately go play thier lane for them rather than trying to get my level up, I get tolld how much of a "shit jungler, so fking useless" And the team spends the entire game spamming htier "enemy is missing" pings on me and calling "report our troll jungle/ 4v5"

If you seem to think the best way to deal with this is to tell your team how "fucking useless" they are, to spam pings on them, and repeatedly remind them just how much of a pathetic troll they are, then The blame for the loss is on YOU. Yeah I will try and gank if its set up, But I dont jump through your hoops at the crack of your whip. and If I dont jump on command, you dont get to turn around and "report for not helping the team".

Sorry if you flame your team because they dont do what YOU say, degrading and insulting them is not gonna make them suddenly change thier mind "Hmm, you tell me I am pathetic, useless, and that I need to gank your lane while you have them pushed under thier own tower. I would say no, but sinse you tell me how garbage I am, I guess I can gank anyways"

Nah, I am gonna tell you to go shove your pings someplace unmentionable and I am gonna focus on taking objectives, levelling myself, and going for towers when I can. Not following behind you while you go farm kills"

You flame? you degrade? You spam pings on people not doing what YOU say, jumping through YOUR hoops? The loss is YOUR fault, not the 0/5 'feeder' being priority picked off because the enemy team knows who the biggest potential 'threat' is on your team. (He likely wasnt feeding, they ususally focus the player with the greatest snowball potential)

You flaming and degrading your teammates may make YOU feel better, but it will not help your team. It will not help the morale. It will NOT improve your target's playing skill (Infact you flaming and degrading them will stress them out and make them play WORSE, Not better)

If you flame and degrade your teammate, it makes them less likely to want to help you. Less likely to want to save you or want to hear anything you say. In the end that usually results in a loss. And the loss is on you, not them. Because rather than help them or show them how to improve. you want to sit there and degrade them and rub thier nose in thier mistakes like a dog that pissed on the carpet. All so you can feel some sense of superiority to them.

So Yes.

I'll admit I've spammed ping once or twice. I'll try to stop.

Sounds like you have bad map awareness and hyper focus on jungle farming. I mean I'm not disagreeing with you, but that's the feedback I get when people spam ping ? at me. Usually they think I'm there to back up a play they're moving in on, and all of a sudden they're dead and I'm still farming. I get the frustration. I've been on both sides of that fence. When stuff like that happens, I step up and tell them flat out, "Sorry, I was getting my red buff. It helps a lot for that first gank. Can you ping request a gank first next time?"

or, "Sorry, you didn't have any MP and I didn't think you'd move in that aggressively. I don't like taking those kinds of risks until I build X item."

I feel like Jungler gets harassed hella quick in matches. It's easy to be a subpar jungler, or to miss a window of opportunity and waste your precious time on a failed gank, missed buff, or camp spawns. Jungler is a roll of high gambling and it's very easy to fall behind on. Instead of being stubborn and ignoring your team for spam pinging you and further contributing to the loss, try constructively learning from what happened. If they're gonna be dicks, mute them, report them, and move on. But uh...sounds like you're being a bit of a brat jungler, too.

Nah I am talking about in general. The Bot lane adc who Tells teammates how "useless" they are or how "worthless" thier support is. Or the mid laner who spamms "Enemy is missing" when a player misses an ult/skillshot. This is not just about MY games, but this community in general where people will flip out and spam everything and anything for the SLIGHTEST mistake. The SMALLEST misjudgement. The spamming pings is used as a punishment, harrassment, an insult. They spam it on players to say "Its a 4v6. We have no >insert role<" And they will spam it over and over. often even spamming your entire mbuild, every item you have as a way of publickly shaming you so that the rest of the team can mock you. Why? because maybe they were busy focussing on winning the GAME untill the player who wanted to turn the match into a public humiliation decided they would spam pings om you and let everyone know just what kind of "Troll" items you were building.

If you seem to get a kick out of that and do that, then no. You dont get to turn around and blame them when you distract them with ? Pings for missing an item or a skillshot, leading to them getting killed, and you still feel you have the moral highground to turn around and try and accuse them of inting.

I know i fuck up. What I dont need is a teammate who feels they are the team's 'nanny' rubbing my nose in mistakes because they feel they have the superiority.

and I will repeat again: this is not just about me. This is the community in general. Players seem to fall under this braindead stupid idea of "X teammate is playing poorly. They arent doing what I want, building what I want, or going where i want. So I am going to flame and degrade them, tell them just how complete garbage they are UNTILL THEY PLAY AT A SKILL LEVEL I EXPECT." And then when these players (not suprisingly) DONT play better and infact end up playing WORSE. The flamer turns around and tries to blame the target, when in fact the loss is on the one who felt they were so above their team they could sit there and tell everyone how "Garbage fking useless" they were.

and they usally follow it up with the line "They are complete trash, worthless noobs......but its not toxic if its true" as if that gives them a pass for dividing the team, sewing resentment, making people more toxic and frustrated, tilted off the table and more likely to make mistakes in a stressed distracted state.
