People say they hate playing ranked because of AFKs and disconnections, people who are unranked who avoided that are ridiculed and are made to feel like their opinions of the game are less valid

People say to play simpler champions before trying more mechanically demanding ones, those same people call others scrubs and noobs for playing garen, yi, or darius

People come to these boards to solve the problem of new players having a tough time adjusting to the game, people say "haha nub get gud"

You like Vayne? Congratulations, you're practically Hitler in this communities eyes

I don't play video games to give myself a headache. I don't play video games to prove how good I am to anyone. I just play to have fun with my friends. When did this game stop being about having fun? Isn't that the literal point of video games?

You aren't talking about "the community" here, you're just talking about Diamond jerks that make a bunch of smurfs specifically to insult and shit on people all day.

Fun means different things to different people.

To you, fun might be playing with your friends, to a psychopath, fun might be playing with their friends'

.. innards.

I don't play CoD because of how much BS shooting at someone for an hour = you died because they saw you three hours ago and shot you. Some games get me really frustrated because of things that just make the dumbest sense.

learn the history of the word "game". It is deeply tied to the word compete.

this game stopped being about fun sometime in season one or two, whenever the unshakable meta was created.
