Is it national toxic league day?

Kovah··5 votes·1,100 views

I might just be getting in bad games but, this has been the most collectively toxic day I've ever had on league. Every game has people who are not just, a little snippy, but full blown toxic to the max rage/flame x 1,000%. EVERY game... What is happening...

If there are a certain % of players that are likely to be an ass, every once and a while, you're going to pull nothing but those players as teammates.

You didn't sacrifice enough dice to the Random Number God. He is now displeased.

Well... see there is this thing called One for All...

It use to be a fun game mode, but people ruined it.

  1. Tryhards queing up solo and picking champs with incredibly difficult learning curves.

  2. One whiner getting mad his champ as not the winner of the lottery can bring the game atmosphere down.

  3. Its national troll day... trolls que up solo just to pick utterly useless champs for One for All which loses people games.

So now imagine everyone ques up for One for All... they have bad games and the attitudes spill over to other games. Yes One for All is the worst LoL day/s.

Rito needs to drop O4A in the trash with Dominion and give us a random extra of Ascention, URF, or PoroKing.

right? just played my first game, i had 1 troll, and 1 afker. i had to quit for today, it's disappointing when a company allows its players to get harass and people get away with it. this is ridiculous, riot needs to step up and actually do something.

Riot is doing stuff about it, people get banned left and right, trust me, but they conceal how many because theres no reason to boast about the amount of people they have to ban.

I honestly believe that at this point, the League of Legends gaming community is on par with the Call of Duty community's type of behavior. It's gotten to that point where I am literally reporting at least 2-3 people per game now for verbal abuse, homophobia, and racism.

Riot really needs to take a deeper look into their behavioral system, because it is unnatural that I have to report at least 2-3 people in every single one of my games now.

You have to report? That's quite a compulsion, and I'd agree, an unnatural one.

Perhaps you should explore why spending 20+ minutes with you causes 2-3 people to go off in every game that you play.

And then for further inquiry you could ask why you're incapable of utilizing the in game mute feature.

Maybe you're less interested in avoiding "negative" chat, and more in finding excuses to click the report button?

So really you should be thanking Riot for policies that encourage rule-breaking so you can give em all the smack down with your mouse.

I'd say that I would have to. I do not want another person dealing with that kind of person, so I feel it is my personal responsibility as a League player to report behavior that breaks the Summoner's Code. Unfortunately, I have had to report in every single game as a result of that, with the verbal abuse being the most common thing and Leaving/AFK being the second most common thing.

Most of the time, it isn't even me who is in there. I just observe and stay quiet, while the my teammates end up trying to go for each others' throats. The times I do end up participating in it, it's usually brief and quick, and I mute them after they continue to verbally abuse me rather than play the game.

Are you really placing the blame on me for the behavior of other players in this game? I report what I observe, and if it ends up with me being on the receiving end, I always end up muting and reporting in the game afterwards. Again, I stick with my point: If I have to report at least one person in every single one of my games for verbal abuse, there is something definitely wrong. And when I mean verbal abuse, I mean stuff like this:

  • Racism
  • Homophobia
  • Attacks on the person (e.g. "you're a fucking dumbass" being the most common attack I see)
  • And on rare occasion: death threats

The top 3 on that list happen very frequently from what I have seen, and I always report those kinds of people. Do I start it? If I do a bad play, a simple criticism would suffice rather than "you're a fucking dumbass kill yourself" type of comment being put out on the chat. Other times? It's just a downward spiral from there.

Mabye you should get out of bronze and you wouldnt have to deal with that, Also the more you report, the less the report is taken serious. Thats so people cant just abuse it, so in reality you are actually playing yourself.

A: A lot of people are just salty at the game in general right now, cause it's crap. B: It's sunday. The kids playing on the weekend are always the worst. C: It's mother's day. The good players are off treating mom to dinner or hanging out with her to watch a movie. You're playing with the selfish jerks who never even call home to let her know how they're doing. Or orphans, I suppose... And we all know orphans are all secretly evil. They made a movie about it I think.
