This game has turned into a behavior simulator over anything else now.

I don't remember how bad it was back in Season 2 (when I joined), all I can say now is that I can't go without one game without someone bitching and complaining because they didn't get their way. Oh, my ADC died to a gank? "fucking kys you belligerent" Oh, someone died in general? *spams missing pings all game". Oh, let's further on bring this into all chat so we can get another 5 random people I'll never meet again into the picture like they could give a rats ass about what's going on. Then we got my favorite part, how players just decide to bring the report system into play as their first resort, instead of the last. Never in my LIFE have I seen something like this. I try to expand my MOBA vocabulary by playing Smite, HOTS, etc, and you don't see this shit at all, besides maybe DOTA 2, and you know what's funny? The games are actually more competitive to play when everyone is just having a good ole time playing some games, instead of bickering about how you this and that wrong.

While psychology is a big part of this game; as well as, moral- having sportsman like conduct has never been the sole aspect of any competitive endeavor. Other wise people could just nice their way into the Olympics.

That's why it's best to just ignore all that shit. I don't see it as a behavior simulator, because I don't pay attention to angry, bitchy kids. It only has power over you if you let it. Just shrug it off dude, trust me it makes the game so much better. Don't worry about justice and all that nonsense, getting offended, "defending yourself" ... It's all a waste of brain power. Just mute if you aren't able to shut that part of your brain off (I think it's ego, but I could be wrong)
