but if not, in lol if you go bot lane with a ranged damage dealer, it means you're supporting. supporting means you don't snipe creep kills and you don't snipe champion kills. supporting means you try your best to enable your carries to carry, and that entails things like helping him get kills, putting lane pressure, keeping good vision to avoid ganks, and a bunch of other things you'll learn as you play.
if you don't want to support, go top lane or jungle if you want to play a melee champion.

My reaction to this recent mafia business, among other things.
Wave pls.
I dunno man, as far as whoosh-y things go, I have a lot of those but you seem to hate many more conversations in here than I do. Old man red, plz
You COULD play with us, you know.
I have 0 interest in Mafia.
I'm pretty sure I am annoyed by more things than not in this thread lately, maybe time to follow Monte.
You're not the only one disinterested in mafia. IDK, sometimes it's just time to only skim or check the last page of OT or just give it a rest altogether. Endless mafia talk would be one of those times for me.
Ya I know, and blah blah salty old man jokes aside, I basically do this for everything in the thread lately. I just don't have an attachment to pretty much any of the games or whatnot that are discussed in here anymore. Like, when it was just Hearthstone and Pokemon it was easy to make random jokes about it, but when it's everything posted in the thread I think it may be time to see myself out. Pretty sure I check in more out of habit than anything lately.
I mean we could always talk about what you wanna talk about. We could talk about fitness and weight lifting? Or how is your life? What are you playing? WE CAN BE SUPPORTIVE!
This post made me briefly consider discussing my lifes problems in this thread.

Today i started playing lol, and after some me+bots vs bots, i decided to do some coop against bots with random teams. I came across some, to me, weird situation. (I believe) i said i wanted to bottom lane and off I went after the start of the game. There was some guy who also went bottom lane, and he seemed to be quite all right; at least he seemed way better than I am. I played Wukong, I don't remember the champion of the other guy but it was a small creature with a bazooka like weapon. We were in a lane against taric and miss fortune. Maybe I'm just bad, but i don't feel comfy going head on against such a combination with a melee champion, so I most of the time waited behind my minions and sniped what I could, mostly minions. My fellow bottom laner was a bit more bold and made some moves to weaken the enemy. I, in my desire to win the game, sniped the enemy champions whenever I could. My colleague wasnt amused however and told people to report me because I 'was a fucking retard'. The question: although i'm not 100% sure, I think he was mad because I sniped enemy champions. Is it a regular thing to be cross about that? And after that, is it such an impolite thing to do to snipe enemies which your teammates have softened up? Or should I just ignore it?
Edit: Very high possibility (not sure though) my teammate was tristana.
Idiots will complain about KSing(kill stealing). Just shrug it off and move on. It isn't worth arguing over, especially in a bot game.

Yeah, well, especially a bot game indeed. We didnt really argue, I just played on after it. Thanks for the reply

Just watch old AGDQ runs on youtube!
If we're linking old epic things, I'll just leave this right here
I don't particularly enjoy D&D games with high mortality rates. I more enjoy when we focus on the story and the characters progressing it, PC deaths should be big deals not the goal of each session imo.

No, he'll roll a new character at the level the party is at and then the DM will contrive a way to get him to join the quest. Or, they could find a way to rez the old member, but at lower levels that's all but impossible without the DM just handing it to them.

This is the first death of this campaign, and he was an idiot and demanded trial by combat.

The session was over shortly after. He'll make a new character and start playing it next session. If there's no threat of player death, it doesn't really have the same feel.

Sounds pretty familiar to me.
My D&D Encounters session tonight involved a coordination of Minor Illusion, Unseen Servant, and Silent Image to create an illusory half-dragon commander to lead a massive group of prisoners out of a heavily fortified dragon cult camp. Huzzah.
