Eh, that's fair. I still think they're of the same quality, though? They both look finished, and like they're from the same game.

She has shorts on in both versions of the skin, it just looks really weird ingame on prestige because of all the weird glow and blur effects thrown on it.

What if, and here's a hot take - both of these things are bad and being a dick ingame is still bad regardless of the allegations?

Something about it doesn't look like a League splash to me at all. I think it's the shading. I'm still gonna be bothered forever by the colors. It's the exact same color scheme as Janna's and it's so distracting. {{sticker:sg-janna}}

Aside from that, League isn't a place of occupation, and I would argue is a public space. It's not a public space, you're using a service run by a private company who can kick you out for whatever reason they see fit. If you walked into a TGI Friday's and screamed in the servers faces that they're all (insert slur here), they're gonna ask you to leave.

I don't mind her looking more human since it's an AU, but I do mind it being...basically the same as sacred sword Janna. They're almost identical, model-wise anyway :(

I've made friends through league, actually. I think a lot of people have.

I totally agree, actually! And the colors being EXACTLY like sacred sword Janna is bothering me as well. I would love for the purple chroma to be the new default but I doubt that'll happen. A shame, the effects are gorgeous.

In all honestly, I have every right to call someone a fa__ot, a ni__er, etc... all it does is show my ignorance as a person. And same could be said for in game chat, if I call someone whatever the growing list of -ists terms, that it again shows my ignorance, and shouldn't be punished with a ban. As in the real world, calling someone a name, a slur, a whatever, won't have the police forcing a gag in my mouth or jamming me into solitary (Effectively the same as banning). If you're at your job and you call someone the n-word, you're gonna get fired. Same thing here. Saying slurs at people isn't illegal but there are consequences for it.

Ah, we have an intellectual here. One who doesn't know what a paragraph break is. >I also really like the "Hate Speech" report option. What is "Hate Speech"? Nothing like FORCED political correctness on young minds. Which causes all sorts of emotional issues, even in adults 40+. Fostering dopamine addiction in these young children as well. This is Dangerous, not only is it wrong, it's downright dangerous. I never report anyone anyway for anything, since the addition of "Hate Speech" as a bannable offence. Imagine getting this mad because you can't say racial slurs in a video game.

Did you actually wait for a ticket response or did you just get impatient and send them over and over again? Support employees aren't allowed to tell you what punishments someone received, so you have no way of knowing if this person was punished or not. And being this hung up over one person isn't going to be good for you, please try to let this go. It's nasty what that person did but if you keep obsessing over it it's just going to make you feel worse.

>Allow the use of words such as "R%%%%%", "Pussy", "Idiot", "Cringe", "Asshole", "Gtfo", "Noob", "Gay", etc., because negative behaviour is often socially reflected on someone's actions and it naturally regenerates into reflection and correction. These words often have a figurative and soft meaning which imperatively ought never ever to be decontextualized. Making insults allowable isn't going to stop toxicity, I don't know why you think that is. Insulting a player isn't going to make you play better and it certainly won't make them play better. Just be an adult and stop hurling insults in chat because it goes nowhere.

I had kind of the opposite happen. Won a game, lobby said I gained 21 LP but looking at my profile it gave me +0 LP. Maybe the totals are buggy rn

Maybe you need to change your mindset of taking offense to anytime the term gay is brought up without being used to describe sexual orientation. A word can have more than one meaning and never does one definition decide the context or the connotation of the other. I am fully aware that words can have more than one meaning. But using gay as an insult, whether you want to admit it or not, has its roots completely in homophobia. Because gay is a bad gross thing, calling things you don't like gay is saying being gay is bad. Even if you weren't intending to be homophobic, using gay as an insult is homophobic. That's like, all there is to it. By the way, your first source had a sample size of _40_, and the second source is an opinion piece from a guy who also plugs his book. Sorry but that's not really as credible as a peer-reviewed source.

Let me put it a different way. Why are you assuming that this representation of gay has to correlate with he sexual orientation definition of gay. Your problem is with the usage of the term gay here not with "dunno man sounds gay" as an offensive message. You said it was seen as homophobia when the entire message has nothing to do with homophobia. Because you're using gay as a negative. You know this because people have told you a thousand times. And using gay as a negative, or an insult, actually [increases subconscious bias against gay people](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22931002). If you mean something else, just use a different word that doesn't randomly attach a negative connotation to a sexual orientation. Or don't say anything at all, because your use is a clear and simple breaking of the rules. You can use gay as an insult if you desperately want to, just not on the boards unless you want to get in trouble for it. And before you try the bad faith argument of "actually you're projecting because you hate the lgbt community!!!" I'm not straight.
