I don't know how many more examples I can give. Throwing in insulting words, is unnessecary and since you don't actaully know if the person is stupid, retarded, whatever, it's not honest. Being wrong about LOL does not make any of that true. And even worse, what if you happen to be the one thats wrong? No ones right all the time, and people that think they are, are usually very unwise because they never learn. Friends is different because you have a built up a relationship and they tend to let things slide and have a different social dynamic. That being said, a lot more people hide how hurt they are then how much they want to be assholes, and in fact it's a sign of low self esteem to enjoy being a asshole, bring others down to bring your self up is not a sign of a healthy well adjusted, high elf esteem person. However, being hurt by mean comments is normal. The key is to not get brought down to that persons level, or by that comment. Usually this is done by devaluing the person saying it. So keep in mind when you do this, people are either hurt, or they simply don't value your opinion. Either way not a positive outcome. You say it's a good idea to assume this, so even by your own logic, which I would say is incredibly flawed, yousay it's good practice. And yet you are argueing that there is no problem with doing it. ?????????????? The saddest part about your post and posts in general is that you beleive that honesty and meaness are the same thing. And basically you think that human nature is to be dickish. I agree that it is common. But I think the reason for it is a lack of slef awareness from people, and being taught incorrectly. I tend to think think that people who come to forums like this are a little above the normal when it comes to intelect (however, this could be a faulty premise) so it is extra sad to see some one beleive this. Go back to the first post I changed. And reread it vs the original post. How is my post less honest? It's not it's simply not dickish. I would also like to point out incase he feels this way, I don't think the first poster is some evil bad guy, and I don't want to come down on him to hard. I just was using it as a example of not a good way to post, talk, or interact in RL with people. being mean is often the most direct way to get your point across. If you've ever said "thats retarded" to something a friend said you can understand. Calling someone a retard rarely implies you actually think or want to imply that person is any way mentally disabled. But it might be a good way to express your anger while putting forward you point at the same time. You would have to be VERY verbose to do that otherwise and when you can't think very clearly its hard to do that. The reason you have to be careful is because everyone is so suspicious of strangers. If some random guy calls you a retard you might get angry but if you knew him for even 2 hours you wouldn't think anything of it. I think that just sucks but I think people getting really offended by cheep using words like dumb when most people in this forum know him well is a bit over the top If someone is "being a dick" specifically to make that person feel bad and not for the purposes of argument then i agree with you. However in arguments they tend to be flared and fast paced and people shouldn't take things too personally. somewhat relevant funny vid + Show Spoiler + | ||

But if I know the banling staff at all this conversation going on for much longer is going to warrant some bans. Just hoping to save a few people's accounts. | ||

You boxing comparision was good, but I think it sucks words should be treated like physical blows. You'll notice I said you should avoid insulting people you don't know well for this reason though. But in my ideal world being nobody would care if you insulted them. | ||

There are reasons not to like the idea but unless they add another lane or nerf every support to olaf tier we won't see more than occasional wave cleanup for farm. | ||

If someone does buy the reverse BT item, they then not only have less money for wards they're now even discouraged to farm, which is just an awful way to force a playstyle. Supports not getting any farm as an accepted play style is kind of atrocious as it is. This is the issue that really needs to be addressed. There's almost never going to be a time where you'd rather spend money on an item over wards/oracles outside of boots and maybe Reverie or Locket. The only way to combat it as it is now is to make a great item with great stats at a cheap baseline cost, which is nigh impossible to do while also dissuading laners to buy it. As long as vision is in the spot it is, it's almost pointless to talk about support items imo. | ||

Harrowing Skins include Officer Vi (I highly doubt this remains limited) and a new Zyra skin, if you're into that sort of thing. "Haunted Zyra", maybe Pumpkin plants? Also Mystery Gifting sounds cool. If only I had friends with money... I would buy Underworld TF but I think Neo might stab me if I play TF ever again. | ||

Let's try a test for the rest of this week. When you state something, you have to offer at least a modicum of proof/analysis/explanation of your position. Questions are still fine. No name calling of any kind. And if I read something and I think it's just so incredibly stupid like running AP on Vayne or trashy one-liners I am going to mod action it instantly. I think it's a reasonable thing to ask for. | ||
