    I am sorry but it is really a matter of getting thicker skin, if these things bother you i dont know how you survive in real life. Mean no offense but this is such a nothing burger, people cant talk in chat anyways.

    Yes, let's act negatively to someone we don't know. It's not on us to assess the personal situation of every individual on the Internet right? After all, willful indifference and apathy is the true core theme of this entire community. So yeah, you wanna take pleasure in another's pain? Go for it, par for the course. I, however, will never revel in another's suffering. It's disgusting.

    I thought it might be nice to add one counter argument to this since I haven't seen anyone mention it previously. But aside from the toxic emote spam, emotes can be used strategically a couple of other ways:

    To boost the morale of your team by using a well placed emote after an incredible play.

    To inflict psychological damage on an opponent, effectively taunting them and goading them into focusing on you (this is great especially if youre playing a low priority job and you want to free up your AD carry to do more for your team).

    These are just a few ways I use them and encourage others I mentor to use them. But there are other ways you can get creative. These are just a couple I havent seen mentioned.

    Please stop i'm gonna melt again like the fragile snowflake that I am.

    Yeah you're totally right actually, why didn't I think of it, why try to make things better when it's how it's always been! I don't even know how I didn't think of that earlier

    Thank you for the nice sophistry though. I like how getting rid of something that's just annoying (and punished by the TOS for starters) suddenly turns into getting rid of something that you cannot survive in real life with. Slippery slope much?

    Naaah, just blame the victims. Who cares about their fragile egos. Oh hey, wait a minute, what is whining about losing the 5y old schoolyard bully smacktalk privilege if not a display of incredibly fragile ego?

    its not punished if they're not doing it on your body, are you gonna cry when you see a MCH dance after marksman spiting you from down field?
    hes nowhere near you but hes very clearly doing the griddy from the mouth of the cave after sniping you.

    angry players make mistakes and thats why people do it crazy how such a tactic works.

    So you were talking about emoting in the middle of nowhere (who even cares? why are you moving the goalposts?), while we were talking about emoting over bodies.

    Nice useless contribution.
