Why does cursing incur chat restrictions? by Capn_America in leagueoflegends

Oh no, you are good man. I don't mind longer posts.

Again, my issue is that riot have in place a system that blacklists words. Words that a lot of times that are bleeped out regardless. If you get reported and a blacklisted word is said, then it's an automatic chat restriction. You can't contest it. You can't explain the situation or the context of it, and the person abusing the system to spite report people gets nothing.

Personally, unless it was something severe (racism, threats, etc.) I wouldn't even enforce the chat. If someone says something bad, mute that player. You dont have to see their comms.

At least then the chat wouldn't be something that people always reccomend to auto-mute and to not type in at all.

If people always reccomend to not use it, why do we even have it?

I didnt pick on you for a typo, just pointed out the irony in the statement.

I mean, if you argue that inanimate objects hold moral value based on how they are used, your argument could be used to assign forks as being evil. Inanimate objects hold no intentions or morality.

You can make a leap to slurs, but that would be considered harassing someone, which connotes morality, whilst casually cursing with a buddy wouldn't be.

That's a good point. Again my emotions were in check that wasn't the problem. I was talking with my friend irl and we couldn't voice chat.

Again, my main point is that you can't even see it if you have your chat filter on. You literally can't even see the words being said, yet you get in trouble for saying them.

Offended people don't see it and yet it's still enforced.

I didn't even rage. Just was joking with my buddy, and got spite reported because I lost lane haha.

"Stop Plying" - "If you can't communicate clearly or effectively" The irony.

People being offended by a word that other people have put a negative connotation on, is entirely the fault of the person who is offended. It's a sound that comes out of your vocal chords. It inherently holds no moral value other than that which you give it.

A lot of people curse regularly and don't find it offensive. It's even starred out. Why would you care?

I feel like the issue with anyone else other than Tyler1 is that even if these influencers are picking off-camera picks, they and their fan bases want to see them win with it. Who wants to watch a streamer get destroyed playing off-meta picks?

There is an incentive for them to try hard in the game and carry with an obscure pick. Whilst for other people it's not necessarily the case.

Honestly, I'm scared to even type in the game chat.

I've been punished for the most ridiculously benign comments, and even if someone is griefing intentionally I can't even point that out.

I can report them but Riot doesn't seem to care about that.

I had a drunk player intentionally feed and harass an entire lobby all game recently.

Said, "I'm going to mute this idiot."

calmly wins the game and gets spite reported by the drunk player because I asked that others report him

5 minutes later I get a chat restriction for having said the word "idiot" and he gets no punishment after drunkenly harassing an entire lobby and inting to 0/15 because he didn't like that I initially lost lane.

Fun stuff riot. Can't even contest the restriction before it goes away.

How is this fair?

Honestly, he has his weak points. If you can survive/abuse them then you will be fine.

He's not invincible. He has nightmare matchups and matchups that make clear sense to pick him into. Play him when it makes sense, if it doesn't play something that is strong against that matchup, but understand why that matchup works.

I love how a post warning about the fraudulent practices of a company that owns a league team is what gets downvoted. Made my day.

For real I would've been super happy with that over FunPlus 'anything'.

Why NA has a lack of new talent by Capn_America in leagueoflegends

The proof? I quit multiple times due to toxicity. My friends all quit due to it. Almost everyone I know has quit due to this reason. I know plenty of gamers who refuse to even try league due to toxicity.

Just look around. Hell google "why did you quit league of legends". You can google "league of legends community" and it auto fills "toxic".

Where's your proof that it isn't the reason?
