Stop going straight to toxicity and stop and think...Help Riot out for once..
Look guys...you do not have to listen to me but I think you guys are going about the game changes, complaints, comparisons, and explanations all wrong. You guys are spreading the toxicity even if your post is well thought out. You need to stop blaming Riot for things. Use your brains and try to logically counter whats said. Cant fight ignorance with ignorance, it just spreads. If we stop going for the pitch forks and torches and start an actual post that doesn't require a one sided argument we could probably have a great conversation of valid points and worth someones time like me who likes reading peoples thoughts that have creativity not the same basic trash talk that everyone in the world has said. There is probably nothing you can say to me I haven't heard already. A lot of posts I have seen are just complaints and irrelevant things I myself have done a couple of complaints just ranting but looking at it from a third eye view. You can see without realizing it everything you guys complain about are almost identical as in raging and cuss words and unprofessional. Now removing comments or posts are not okay unless it really is vulgar, inhumane, typical insulting reasons, or targeting someone specific, or even if its just plain whining its still someone trying to cry for help they just don't know how to word it. Now I agree it feels like Riot is not reading anything or ignoring the real comments but that's not entirely true.
The many many people that play this game how could they possibly see your post over everyone, maybe they just haven't gotten around to it yet?. The key to winning your everyday struggle with climbing is patience, not to flame Riot until they do something about it. For example a post like "oh i love league and I know you guys know how i feel and hate playing with garbage and wasting 45 mins of my time with losers" but that comment there I just made is ignorant itself. If i was a Rioter id read that title or the first sentence and probably be able to compare you to another guy who only sees their side over others. I think Riot should attempt on some of the posts or maybe a private message to players to see if they can get down to the real issue instead of trying to stay away because that person is "Toxic." Yes some instances people go through are actually unfair and they do contact Riot support and some do get helped.
There are a lot of people working for Riot and you guys are getting the people that just treat it like a job instead of a game they love and work for mixed up. There are some good people on Riot I have talked to and there are people I have talked to that I think shouldn't be representing Riot, it ruins their image. Now with that being said I have found this out from simply my own research through posts and Riot responses either to me or others and it is a personal opinion no facts but some of the Rioters respond as if they have the power no one can take away and some respond with time and compassion into full paragraphs either against the toxicity in a rude manner (The same as anyone in the world can have especially when you have so many players BMing everything you're trying to do as a company to help the players, cant make everyone happy just like you cant win them all). Yes you guys are the people and have a say because without the league community their is not a league of legends game but like my previous point we need patience. Riot is doing what they can one at a time while still trying to make new content to please you guys. Take more consideration what they have on their plate before making a post. Imagine how you would feel if everything you say was taken out of context or people don't understand where you're coming from, sounds familiar huh? Kinda like your posts being deleted. Riot goes through the same things and it could maybe not mean that they are ignoring it but maybe based off the history of comments and threads some are just not worth looking at.
Think about it when you scroll through the thread you think hmm no no and OK lets see what they talk about on this one...then go oh never mind another complaint one maybe an up vote on a few comments or a few down votes here and there. People are random you cant just place people in some sort of bracket just because its their "job" or that's who they work for so they must all be like that. That's such a small minded comment not stupid just sounds like it came from someone who doesn't think before they talk. I started to understand Riots point of view since I've worked customer service over the phone which is no way to tell how you really feel its just a guy on the other line. Gotta watch what you say or you'll get sued or hated on or complained to your manager about. To think that the people who misrepresent Riot are not individually dealt with is absurd. If a company has bad apples they will slowly pick them off the tree. Yes you guys are Riots main squeeze when it comes to success but you gotta understand its not always about the money its more about the reputation.
I bet you guys would feel a million times better if Riot starting posting all the bad apples they found what they did and how they took care of them but honestly its none of our business and that would ridicule that person forever no one deserves that. You online animals can be ruthless because its just a screen you're talking to. Now imagine if someone found out who you were and blasted your information on the internet for everyone to see to mess with you everyday. Its not gonna be cool. You can tell by my name I don't care talk your mess to me I ignore most things said sometimes I respond with logic and it makes people even more mad its super funny lol but don't confuse personal logic with general logic. There is a difference in logic because how you perceive something may not be how someone else thinks it and that's just the beauty of diversity there is no right answer with personal decisions because they are all unique and personal logic is used after general logic is already known. If that makes sense for you guys LOL.
So back to my original point if anyone cared to read this and yea its kinda cliche whatever since you got this far I must remind you stop spreading the toxicity. So when someone posts and ignorant post just down vote don't comment because you're just pouring gasoline on the fire. It gets nowhere and to the back of the feed with down votes because of how unpleasant the comments are to read or the post its not worth any ones time unless you're looking for laughs like me or a pointless argument like others.. Some people actually post real comments though that should be heard but they are drowned, down voted, or ideals ridiculed by the people that don't take the post seriously or to those who take it too serious. Look I know there's bound to be a post here like why did this guy write so much no one cares but that just proves my point. If you feel like its a pointless post don't come here to comment it makes no sense you don't want to read it but you want to hate on it? How can you hate on something you don't know? Don't assume because we all know what that means. So I'm not posting this for someone to care or for any stupid votes at all down vote it all you want you'll just further prove my point that this board is only toxic people and there's no point to post anything with logical or sentimental value like a real board should consist of. You reflect it on the board it will reflect in the game.
Understand the problem with the game being the way it is now good for some and bad for some is because of the imbalance of people that just want to play and not type at all to the people that always have something to say. Now granted in game if you wanna ping and talk about come to drag or baron or go here or come on help me all the time I'm all for it in chat and I'll do what I can but anything else just get over yourself even if you are right at that point and time what does it really accomplish? Stop trying to have the last word. I am guilty of doing it just like anyone else is but unlike others that I've seen I've learned to understand both sides and it wasn't because of Riots bans or chat bans just part of growing up. It gets old talking to brick walls. None of the punishments help anyone they just make people more mad because the system needs some kinks worked out. If a Rioter sees this please check on that ban system you think it works it honestly doesn't. Not just because, oh the guy talking mess isn't banned yet, Its simply because I've noticed in my games (and others that I have no relations to) have gotten bans from just the majority vote. Think about it the way the system seems like its designed for now is not by words but by majority rules. Honestly that's a great system because that's democracy at its finest however what I mean by the systems flaw is that is doesn't cooperate with the way the world works now a days. That system only works in a perfect world where people are honest and true. Too many people are abusing the majority vote and you can see it clearly because people have said some outrageous things on this game like I mean like wow why didn't you get banned right away mid game. LOL I'd gladly play a game that registers in game texts right away and people are banned right away when they say something outlandish. It would help so much and let the players focus so the system does its own work. Id say based off the silly way people talk now a days shouldn't be too hard to input the real words or sayings that cause tilt in some people.
So the differences between this post and other post's are that this post has a body, some details, personal experiences, no cuss words, no hating on anyone, and no hate towards Riot or Rioters or any players I'm just talking to anyone who cares to hear or wants to talk about it or even those who point out things I said that don't make sense or if someone has a different opinion from what I say and just wants to share. I won't be mad, promise. What I'm simply saying though is based off of what I've seen and heard I've developed my own opinions.
My best possible solution to the banning system is to not have reports at the end of the game. Instead make the bans during the game that way no one has to worry if they get to play the next game with chat active or if they get to play at all or have to think about getting that report in at the end of the game and trying to get some cult together to vote against someone to get them banned, it's really sad. I've seen people banned for asking to report someone over people who actually use racial slurs or unacceptable language and manner. Call me a liar all you want people I have seen this and how do I know? It's because you can report someone and when its successful those who reported get a thank you for your feedback notice once disciplinary action is taken. I've reported almost everyone who drops racial slurs, racist name, degrading name, and ill mannered attitude but I very very rarely get a feedback card and that's because I've been toxic before and my names like flagged or whatever so my votes are almost non existent (May not be true but it just feels that way) and it's like well what if I'm trying to change things around? Do good for a change? Why compare me to others who have way worse dialog and treat me the same when my toxicity is really not that bad. I feel like because I said you suck lol but its OK i'll still get banned? Makes no sense (Again may not be true but it just feels that way sometimes). Lets be honest though what's a game without the competitive part of it? Especially in a ranked setting where stats matter. I understand the game is meant for fun but ranked is not for fun its for serious game play. You don't care about your rank why ruin it for others? If you want to play for fun go play normal that's what its for experiments and fun times with nothing mattering it still takes stats so you can look at it so just stay on normal people lets get ranked back to the way it should be.
Stop being a sore loser you cant win every game. Now that's another issue that cant be fixed yet but maybe the in game ban could sort those people out too.. Anyway doesn't matter anything close to whats not allowed when you're already on a warning instantly feels like it ignores your report and you're the one in trouble like come on at least get us both a ban lol not to be petty about it but why does it always feel like one or the other receives the ban? I'll take the handicap for the removal ban in game even if its ranked simply because toxicity like that is downright unwanted and its not something pleasant to look at after you wanna try something out to get out of the box and try to get the lead because the game can always be turned around with teamwork. I do agree it in normal should be the place to try things but have you thought about the people that have tried it in normal and then wanted to bring it to ranked to see if it truly works? So what if it doesn't actually work. It doesn't give you the right to shut someones dreams down like that. That person who tried it probably already feels bad or learned how to do it right or knows another way to try.. You always have to try its not ever over (Unless its like 50 -2 lets be real that's crazy ff that... lol...or you can try to play smarter and slower as a team). If the game is a loss its fine you can make it up in the next game. People climb so its not impossible and these bad teammates thing yea its a thing get over it some people are just not naturally good at gaming so you have to make up for it and accept that not everyone you play with is going to master their champ even if they have played rank a lot every game is different (Oh quick tip stop comparing your last game and use same builds to the next game because it could be a completely different outcome).
The only way to climb is be more than you were last game and do it every time til you can understand how to use your leads to take over the game. Be more aggressive but conservative and most importantly efficient cant give you any tips because everyone plays different that's the beauty of the game. Its like chess same pieces always but they can be used differently to take over the board with little to no losses or by simply being the last piece. I wrote so much because I hope people see this and really agree or add their opinions to help make this games mentality change. I don't care if its 1-5 ratio any progress to help the community is progress. What I don't like is people who come on here and think they can drop a comment and be like yea i bet i ruined his day LOL no one has time for you or your comments because it has no value. Stop being a part of the problem be a person for a minute. Saying something that you thought out or came to you after reading this or even have just been meaning to say I'd love to hear it because anyone can make a comment but its a person not a robot (Or a product of society as I like to call it lol) to say something with context and true emotion. So yea I did have a lot of time and yea i do like this game probably a lot more than anyone I know LOL. I just honestly don't want a good game to go under because people cant see the game is not the issue its the world and the community around it. Anyway I'm surprised they didn't cap my message yet LOL
I wrote so much LOL but before I find a cap lets just end this with a thank you very much for taking the time to read this. It truly is a good feeling when your voice is heard (Or for you literals if your words are read as well lol) and if you didn't read it all and scrolled to the bottom about halfway thank you for trying. I'm just a guy talking to the computer here anyway and I meant everything I said so if you're looking for jokes move along but I believe one step at a time we can make ranked matter again. LOL
