SPAM PINGING

It's unacceptable. I'll be leaving every game I see that has a ping griefer until rito fixes this shit.

Everyone's had that guy.. who will dive 1v5 then ping his team for assistance way after he died. Or the one that will ping the enemy any time they are in vision (not when theyre going MIA, just any time they see them they will ping target for no reason). The ping spammers are way more distracting then people flaming. Or the ones that'll ping fall back any time you are below 50% HP (and I mean ping nonstop until you go back) even if you're going in for an easy kill.

Don't let them see you miss one skillshot or they'll be pinging '?' and '!' your lane for the rest of the game, and then they will also start dying because they're paying too much attention to your lane looking for any opportunity to point out your mistakes even if it makes them play like shit, and then try to blame you when this causes them to die.

I really hate how this tool meant for communication is abused so much as just another method for people to flame or harass other players and tell them how much better they are than you by pinging all over the map.

This is why it needs to be banned. Ping griefing is 10x worse than assholes in chat that you can mute.

It's really bad when you see people using the '?' ping more often to call out mistakes, than to actually use it for calling MIA.

oh, and I love the guy who pings an enemy while you are already attacking, then when all your skills are on CD, he pings to target them again.

People flaming I can handle, but someone pinging me as if they're constantly watching what I'm doing is just annoying, but it's funny when they are ping spamming fall back and it causes them to die. It's almost ironic that a great idea/feature for team communication becomes a way for them to flame even further, with added imagery and sound effects to troll/distract you.

Please define your issue. Are you jungling and top or bot is pinging you to gank for them? Are your allies pinging you about your mistakes, like aiming mistakes, engaging on a foe, or not engaging? If so, then I agree with you. It is annoying. If not, then what are arguing about? Context please.

Some asshole spammed me for an entire game and I have no recourse. That's what happened. 45 fucking minutes of it.

Sounds annoying but also one timely. My guess, you were playing a champ that player hated and wanted to judge you to no end OR that player wanted to be (if Blind) or mains (either Blind or Draft) and you got to that champ first. Annoying indeed. Anything else to help elaborate the situation?

You're assumptive and wrong about this in every way. Please just stop. Anyone spamming pings needs to be banned. I'm fucking done with it. It's not one timely... it's fucking every other game.
