Come to EUNE, we no toxik, i sweur
From the things I hear from people about that EUNE, I fully expect some random *** dude from Russia decide to start playing League one day. "Hey this game looks really cool, maybe I'll give it a try." Game 1, gets bashed on, insulted, generalized, etc. because he doesn't speak English. I bet that would put some perspective in some people's eyes.Quote:

You missed my point. You can't generalize people together and try to look like "the good guy".Quote:

My first thought, competitive teams subbing in for each other when they're down a member for a tournament? That's cool. After witnessing that, I'll be keeping C9 and fnatic in my "cool guys" book, until proven otherwise anyway.Quote:

I wouldn't really know because I've never played with people from that region. That being said, I can understand frustration from both sides. Language barriers are hard to communicate across, especially when video games provide little way to communicate outside of super general calls like danger pings, help pings, etc.Quote:

People are *******s long before they play a video game. Being on the receiving end of toxicity isn't a good excuse to subsequently become toxic yourself, just like being abusive isn't excused because you grew up in an abusive relationship.
But to clarify, I get and agree with your viewpoint on generalizing.
Of course it doesn't justify the way people behave. That goes for both sides, too. Personally, I can't handle groups of people who behave anything like that. Which is why I no longer play League (haven't for 2+ years now) and I won't play DOTA2 (even though there are people who try to convince me that it's JUST FINE).
I exclusively play League with friends now. It's just so much more fun when you can laugh off mistakes and communicate with people, versus getting flamed and having nothing to do but suffer until the game ends. I don't and won't ever play DOTA, either.
I'd come play with you on NA, if you dont mind that account is level 20 :3Quote:

I think it's because in any online community ever, English is more or less the only way of ever communicating anything of any substance with pretty much anyone. When someone can't use this tool of communicating, it gets frustrating on top of the other factors which only adds to your frustration, such as losing a game.Quote:

So when senor Perez or monsieur Charlemagne reads blah blah blah **** you blah blah, they only get angrier themselves and so the chat degenerates into a funfest of monkeys flinging **** at each other in their respective languages.
I love EUW Sundays at 20-23 o' clock
CLAM COME PLAY WITH MEEEEEEEeeeEEEQuote:

I'm starting to think it will be really good for me, but I don't really like to be around to many people, because in clubs, there's ****loads of 'em as far as I know...
So..Should I, or will I be just fine without going ?
