Anyone whose gameplay is effected by chat is weak minded

If you play worse because someone is being mean on chat you should reevaluate your life. I know this is gonna get downvoted a ton, but its the truth

I've seen people die mid-sentence while flaming others.

I beg to differ.

Man, this is... just absurd, on multiple levels.

First of all, you're victim-blaming. "It's YOUR fault you can't take it when someone is being a dick to you!"

Second, you're being unreasonable. Tilting because someone is being a dick to you is not a sign of weakness, and it's definitely not a reason to stop and reflect upon some imagined failing.

Third, you're establishing a ridiculous double standard. It's okay for YOUR emotions to affect you, but everyone else must be able to perfectly govern their reactions.

Fourth, and possibly most importantly, you're trying to rationalize being a dick to total strangers in a video game. Seriously, dude.

Humans are very social creatures. I think it's more likely that something is wrong with you if you're completely unaffected by in-game chat.

I feel sorry for your parents if you use that as an excuse to talk down to other people. You know what kind of people are weak? Putting others down to make themselves feel superior.

ikiledrogerrabitApr 12, 20162 votes

yeah, call me weak for telling people that they shouldnt let the words of others affect them. isnt hypocrisy great

Don't falsify other peoples statements. Serene Grace said people are weak for "putting others down to make themselves feel superior".

youre right he isnt implying anything. youre a genius, people should worship the ground you walk on

BladeSteelApr 12, 20163 votes

And there he goes putting others down again lolololol

ikiledrogerrabitApr 12, 20161 votes

calling someone a genius and saying that people should worship the ground he walks on is a put down since when? seems like a compliment to me

BladeSteelApr 12, 20162 votes

Oh so it was 100% true and there was 0 sarcasm in it? Grow up kid lol

ikiledrogerrabitApr 12, 20161 votes

this is a video game chat room, arent video games supposed to be for kids? dont tell me to grow up, if i were grown up id do better things with my time than play league

BladeSteelApr 12, 20162 votes

And yet you're basically telling people to grow up and not let chat effect them...

You're free to have whatever opinion you want. However, the vast majority of this community does not share it, and that kind of behavior is not acceptable here. You don't need to agree with the rules, you just need to follow them. If you can't, don't let the door hit you on the way out.

So things like depression and suicide don't exist right? Because anyone struggling with that are weak. /s

ikiledrogerrabitApr 12, 20162 votes

yes youre exactly right, if you dont let things get to you depression wont be a problem for you. a little bit of thick skin will go a long way

Also, youre comparing a video game chat to people being depressed about actual life issues and suicide, think about it

..... That's terrible advice. If you don't let things get to you, you won't be depressed. What a load of shit.

Also, as someone who has been hospitilized several times with depression and twice after suicide attempts, video game chat does matter, especially when multiple people are telling me to KILL MYSELF WHEN I'M FUCKING SUICIDAL.

But I guess you have your head too far up your ass to think about others.

ikiledrogerrabitApr 12, 20162 votes

do you ever think about if people, instead of using video games and the internet as an outlet, got over themselves and actually went out and talked/vented to real, physical people that depression and suicidal thoughts would be less of a problem?

RandomoniumApr 12, 20165 votes

Yep, suicide never existed before video games and the internet. Great point.

Actually .. if they did have clinical suicidal tendencies / depression., chances are they aren't leaving their room.

Just some professional experience to share.

ikiledrogerrabitApr 12, 20161 votes

exactly the problem, if they were to get out and meet people they would be happier

Junsui AoiApr 12, 20163 votes

Are you a psychologist? No? Have you ever dealt with those feeling or had a friend that did?

Mental illness is not a joke. That's like saying, "Oh, you have pneumonia? Why don't you just sit around some trees and breath better? Why don't you visit your healthy friends so you can be more like them?"

Please, educate yourself.

Kei143Apr 12, 20161 votes

No.

It means that they are too depressed to even go out. Anything that changes their immediate environment will set them crying a river.

Unless you are forcing them to take their medication, you probably will have no other means to stop them from crying.

Taking suicidals outside is just increasing the risk / tools they can kill themselves with. Bad idea.

And the reply for saying things I shouldn't?

A mouth full of soap.

SithesisLordApr 12, 20164 votes

Because being a dick to people will surely make them play better.

[zombie-brand-clap] [zombie-brand-facepalm]

Ever stopped to wonder that maybe, just maybe, the problem isn´t people who are supposedly weak minded, but with the person actually making them play worse or feel worse?

The chat is there but that doesn´t mean you have to use it. Don´t press Enter. Don´t type stuff and send. If you can´t say anything useful, don´t say a thing.

It´s that goddamn simple.

If you're in a football match and someone kieeps yelling "you fucking suck, kid!" for every mistake, you're not gonna focus well and play worse. Same thing woth league of leggo.

Not only that if the person screaming that is playing for a team you know damn well he will get fined, possibly fired for Unsportmanlike conduct. It rarely happens because you know most people know how to be a civilized human being. But this is the Internet and you can get away with threatening to kill someone, or use racial slurs as if it's the only words you know.

LauchmelderApr 12, 20163 votes

By that you insulted yourself. You Chat to flame others, thus it's affecting your gameplay (you press enter and type after all).

You beat yourself.

ikiledrogerrabitApr 12, 20161 votes

you can chat any time, i do so when i am not in danger in game, thus having no effect on my gameplay. Guess i didnt beat myself i beat you

LauchmelderApr 12, 20164 votes

Someone plays bad -> you flame him -> the player plays worse -> you flame even more -> you lose the game

Is it stupidity or ignorance to not understand that?

I'm pretty sure the guys who only know how talk more crap than actually playing the game (whilst having high chance of getting permabanned) are on the same field as well.

I don't think you are in a proper position when you are toxic yourself, thinking about the "good" of the community. In fact is system is working as intended removing players such as yourself OUT of it.

ikiledrogerrabitApr 12, 20161 votes

first things first mr all knowing league of legends god, all i have ever gotten is a 10 game chat restriction, but way to jump to conclusions and label me as toxic. I am just fed up that even giving advice in game is grounds to be reported now and get a ban, no matter how polite you are. People also troll on chat to bait others into saying something that will get them banned

different account, i took a long, hard look in the mirror after receiving that perma ban but i am reformed now and i only have riot's tribunal and punishment system to thank for that. but its nice to know ive got the video game police on my case lmao have fun with your self esteem issues champ, maybe spend less money on skins and go see a therapist

DevilishMetalApr 12, 20167 votes

You claim to be reformed, but this is a fairly good example of not reformed. Maybe if you showed it in the way you spoke to other people we would be more receptive.

DenavaiApr 12, 20161 votes

Yep, but this isn't bar pool. Sadly. They want to treat every aspect of their casual gaming experience as tournament ready. You have to act like you're playing for team USA 24/7 and be Mr. good Samaritan.

DevilishMetalApr 12, 20164 votes

Is there somethig wrong with being a good person? Why wouldn't you be a good person whenever you can?

DenavaiApr 12, 20162 votes

For the same reason you'd tell a friend when they've shit on their face. Why would you foster weakness? Tell me that? Good job! You made a crap play work. Lets do that every game....

Being a good person isn't always, "saying what someone wants to hear." But go ahead, keep pretending...

DevilishMetalApr 12, 20163 votes

I agree, being a good person isn't always saying what someone wants to hear. One can offer advice in a respectful manner.

For example: There's a large difference in tone between, "I can't believe you got that kill, that was terribly played out. Do..." and, "Good job, but next time you could try..." I know I would much rather have someone say the second example to me instead of the first- it's more encouraging and provides advice.

You've now HOPEFULLY helped that person to improve, you don't get reported (and if you do, that wording shouldn't get you banned), maybe you even get honored, and everyone is happier. I don't see that as fostering weakness.

DenavaiApr 12, 20161 votes

My icon is from being a positive attitude player you know? I find it sad how this great majority of forum dwellers feel the need to brown nose in every single game as if it's the solution, but go ahead. That skill-set will get you ahead in the real world; Just toss away your pride along with the rest of them.

If I had to give you an analogy of what kind of good guy I'm. I'm a Vegeta, so don't expect me to be Goku he's an idiot.

Just like OP, you are not in a good position to comment on this situation. And you are certainly NOT a positive attitude player from the comments in this thread, and in this: http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/player-behavior-moderation/E8lEX8Mq-refusing-to-communicate-my-restriction
