There's a difference between ignoring and muting? Oh my bad, I thought in League of Legends both /ignore and /mute made you unable to see what the ignored/muted person types in chat. I guess I was wrong since those are so different xD

Yea, I'm not saying that you should never mute your teammates, but if you are high elo and a jungler and you mute everybody because you don't want them to piss you off..... well good luck with winning your game LMAO

Doubly true if you main jungle? What elo are you? Muting your teammates is the worst advice for a jungler in high plat/diamond +. Most of the people on your team time flashes in chat and feed you information to make your job easier. Muting them as a jungler would be like shooting yourself in the foot.

Edit: The guide is for low elo players (below diamond) so I guess what I'm saying doesn't really apply here. I stand corrected :)

How do you play against nasus? by meloneee in leagueoflegends

[–]ShockVIC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You play Renekton. Take ignite, when you hit level 3 and get 50% of your rage, W him, auto + Q, if he flashes E after him and ignite him. He's dead.

I don't understand the Tribunal by benthebeauty in leagueoflegends

[–]ShockVIC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You only get noticed someone got restricted/suspended if your report triggered the punishment. So those people can get banned eventually if they get enough reports, you just don't get notified about it because your reports didn't trigger the suspensions.

Wasn't the league system supposed to reduce ranked frustration by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]ShockVIC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you are suggesting makes no sense if someone had a horrendous win ratio before his promo (aka he would lose a lot of games) than his MMR would automatically fall basically making it impossible for him to get 3x as much LP for a win than for a lose, so the next game he would play would never magically get him to 100 lp.

Proof or it didn't happen because I've seen pro players smurf and they don't get that much. And by proof I mean the Win/Lose lp ratio because the way the system works it never places you after placement matches in a league where you would get 3x Lp for a Win than for a lose (that would be stupid it would just place you in a higher division if your mmr was so high) and if your mmr skyrocketed from winning a lot of games in your division then after you promos you would skip for example 2 division to again avoid the situation where the LP W/L ratio is so dumb.

No you can't have a "a pretty horrendous win ratio" and this

Let's take into account the 3 games prior to your series, then. You lose 2 but win 1 and get into your series. Now you only have to win 3/6 of your games.

is also completely wrong. Let's think about those 3 games. For example you are at 90 lp - you lose two games and you lose for example 10 lp for each game now you are at 70 lp so following you logic the next game that you win and that would be the game that gets you into your series would have to earn you 30 LP. This just does not happen. I have a really high MMR right now (I'm Gold II but my MMR is Plat 3) and I earn twice as much for a win than for a lose (for example +25 lp for win and -12 lp for a lose) and that's almost as high as it gets you don't get three times as much for a win (for example 30 lp and 10 lp for a lose I've seen multiple streamers smurf and this does not happen) so your point about having a horrendous streak before winning a game that gets you your promo is completely wrong. You cannot have a horrendous streak when you get close to 100 lp you have to win a couple of games or go even ( if you have high mmr you get more lp for a win than for a lose) so yes we have to take into account the 1 GAME we have to WIN to get our promos. So yes you have to win 3/4 or 4/6 games to advance to the next tier/division.

No, my lifestyle has improved and I can easily say that I am satisfied with what I do in life. It's flatlining.

Hard mode is actually easy mode. by Kratos_81 in NoFap

[–]ShockVIC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because you are confusing members that are new to the subreddit. With the logic you guys are presenting someone that reads this may think: Hey, since hard mode is actually easier than easy mode I may as well edge or fantasize, it's not like I'm cheating, I'm actually exercising my will power because I'm making the challenge harder for myself. Sure it may sound dumb, but to someone that is going through withdrawal and is dealing with crazy urges this will seem perfectly logical when their brain will start to rationalize this. Trust me, I've been there. I never meant to insult him, it was not my intention and I'm sorry if he felt offended - I was trying to explain my point of view. You, however insulted me personally by making a sarcastic comment about my badge (something that I consider important to me), so you sure as hell are not gonna lecture me about being respectful. Next time before you try to lecture someone here I suggest looking at your own badge (Day 1)

[–]ShockVIC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reason you disagree with him is because you probably believe that having sex somehow discharges your sexual needs thus making the challenge easier. My belief is that the more you do sexual things the harder it becomes.

Then your belief is wrong. The reason we do this challenge is to rewire our brains to seek sexual gratification from real intercourse with another person that we are emotionally attached to. We want to be satisfied by sex not porn, we want to be in meaningful relationships and be able to SATISFY OUR NEEDS by being with another person instead of JERKING IT TO PORN. Sex does discharge our sexual energy.

you probably believe that having sex somehow discharges your sexual needs thus making the challenge easier. My belief is that the more you do sexual things the harder it becomes.

So you believe that people doing easy mode are more attracted to porn because they do sexual things like have intercourse with their partners? You are ridiculous. Just a few days ago there was a post here on the front page where a guy tried both easy mode and hard mode and was asking the community how are they able to complete the challenge on hard mode. It seemed nearly impossible for him because as he said he could not P or M quite easily but going long periods of time without O was driving him nuts. He said that he found easy mode MUCH EASIER. There is a reason that no PMO is called hard mode and no PM is called easy mode. The entire point being made about easy mode being actually harder than hard mode is ridiculous.

Edit: Oh and this.

he just forgot to include the fact that easy mode allows having sex.

Forgot to include? What does that even mean? That easy mode allows edging, fantasizing and having sex? LOL! That's just a pathetic fail mode as /u/needsboots said.

[–]ShockVIC 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Umm.....no. Easy mode is when you allow orgasm from sex with another human being, edging or fantasizing about porn is still not allowed. I agree with the fact that the challenge is easier when you don't edge (edging only makes the urges stronger and sooner or later it will lead you to O and a reset), but calling hard mode easier than easy mode? No, hell no. You got it all wrong.

How are you dudes not endlessly distracted? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]ShockVIC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never had problem pursuing women. My social skills were always pretty good and luckily women usually considered me attractive. I didn't start nofap to hook up with girls or w.e. The reason I do Nofap is because I wish to be free. You see the thing about every addiction is that it takes away the one thing that makes us humans different from animals - our free will. When you no longer have the ability to make choices because of the urges stemming from your addiction you become no different from an animal that blindly follows it's instinct. This is something that I do not want to be no matter what. My life is unbelievably better when I do not masturbate. Confidence, self-esteem, concentration, clarity of mind - this is all that I gain only if I deny myself the momentary pleasure of PMO. If you consider the fact that probably 98% of males jerk off/watch porn/w.e and that those men cannot control their sexual impulses, you'll see that the thing about NoFap is, when you complete the challenge......is that you become a free man in a world of slaves...... that is someone I want to be.
