- CHANGE THE GAME -
Alright so i know y'all are used to long posts and stuff but i'll (try to) be real quick cause the idea in itself is pretty simple.
Ok so let's admit it, League is fun to play, but definitely not something you would call a good game. Now don't jump on me i'm not critizing Riot nor their employees in any way, and it's very likely that they work hard, the result just isn't good. Now that's not necessarily their fault (i mean both making AND balancing a game must be hella hard), and the community has a huge role to play in this (let's just admit it, the lol community in its vast majority is pure trash) So I have 2 simple ideas, either :
-
Delete the in-game chat completely. Like seriously, it's useless, point blank period. It's just a room for toxic comments, and the ones who are positive are VERY RARELY truely useful. I've lead and won countless games using only pings as communication. Now i already see people coming at me with crazy arguments, but they're all invalid. Nothing can justify the very existence of a chat in a game like league, especially with the recent adding of pings like "warded !". "Yeah but what if i want to tell my strategy to my teammates ? I need this chat !", ehhh... no you don't. First because most players will not give a damn about your strategy, second because they'll probably screw it up, thrice because they might not even read it, fourth because you loose time, and last because you can totally destroy the ennemy team and win the game without any complex strategy. Really most strategies made in chat are just mental masturbation, aka useless. If you wanna have a good strategy, learn the game mechanics first, then team up with your friends on Discord or whatever, now THAT might work.

In case you can't accept for whatever reason what's above, then AT LEAST do something about toxic people. A very simple and good idea would be to just chat restrict (severely) for the whole game a player who uses any "bad" word in a sentence he's writing, aswell as not sending the message containing the said word, of course. These words would include ANYTHING with a possible negative meaning. Not just "fuck you" "son of a bitch" "suck my stinky balls" or "eat dick". "idiot" "stupid" "damn" etc... also should be prohibited. A useful message doesn't need meaning, and never will. It ONLY needs INFORMATION, that's it.
Let's just hope Riot'll read this. Cheers ![]()
EDIT : also, just delete permanent bans. They're useless, period. We all know that. Maybe create permanent chat restrict, or 1 day bans per report, idk
