League of Legends is a wonderful game, I'm sure most of us on the forum can now agree. If not, it's a game that we play with the group because it can be fun at times. I really enjoy it, but usually only when I'm playing with everyone else. Too lazy to do otherwise, since there are other things that I could be doing with my time.

Recently, if anyone is unaware, a previous unknown was added to the group by the name of EmoJester, a member that was added on spur of the moment by Echo 419, a rather experienced player with some good wit, and some nice humor. EmoJester is exceptionally funny, though to Sam's displeasure, he has a habit of vulgar language (The rest of us do to.) He doesn't afraid of anything. Unfortunately though, his brand of humor has me labeled as an unsavory name, several times I have pointed out that I don't like being called such.

"Liability." Sure, it was meant fun, but it's not that funny when I'm actively telling you guys that I don't like the name, and I don't liked being called it. At first I tried to blow it off, but the insistence of the group on using it is rather irritating. I don't find the game that fun anymore, since it's not an excuse to call me bad, or terrible. It doesn't help that I'm still trying to learn the game and all of its different roles. It's pretty discouraging.

At the moment, I tolerate Sai more than I do EmoJester. I'd be fine with someone like Shin calling me bad or something, because he's usually not being serious and I can tell. I've known him for quite some time, and we're familiar as acquaintances. I feel like EmoJester has overstepped his bounds in branding me with this name, but even my insistence doesn't make you guys relent.

What the hell? This is how bullying starts.

But yes it's kinda relentless of him to call you "Liability". But at the same time, I think being courteous at this point is getting nowhere, just set your boundaries sternly and know that it's not good calling you a nickname that implies that you're weak. Seriously it's not good for anyone and yes I'm guilty enfocring the bullying, but I knowing the tone of Jester talks, he just needs to know boundaries and he'll back off.

He hasn't said shit yet to me and yet I did horribly with fiddlesticks in that 1v1 when that incident happened, and been playing with his friends as well. He seems that he's intimidated by me. O_o

Well obviously, there's the issue that you're another player of about his caliber. I'm easier fish to fry due to the fact that I'm still relatively new/inexperienced to the game.

Eh don't worry about it dude. People like that simply exist in LoL, which is the exact reason why we do this in a group. If you check my stats, I think I've played a total of 3 games against other people, doesn't mean I enjoyed them. If he bugs you that much, simply don't play with him. If you really want to learn and such though I'd be happy to give you some pointers, with my best advice coming from being an AP Carry, where my current specialty lies.

Even so though, I can help you with roles and otherwise, and at least point you in the right direction of what you should and should not be doing, but the rest is just left to experimentation. After all, how else are you going to learn if a combination works unless you try it out Razz

Win or lose doesn't matter so long as you're having fun with friends.

Just block/ignore him on Skype. Avoid him on League and just play anyone else in the group who's currently stray. I probably won't be able to play with the group including yourself full-time still, because I'm still on a ranking binge.

I need to play with you more then. I prefer those types of champions.
