See, this is what I’m talking about.
I asked nicely the first time and a second time when we wiped, I asked for a mei swap second round and a brig swap for the third.
Yeah, one and done.
You can’t keep telling people how to play.
You could say ‘why don’t we do this’ but not ‘switch’
It gets annoying.
When you say “ask”…?
you did not even read how she was typing torwards me, she starts coming in here with the thought that im delusional and have issues. If that was the case I would’ve been reported way earlier when I started to do ranked, not now.
When they did not swap the first time then you were harassing.
Take me for instance there is 0 cases where me switching off D’Va would benefit my team (as I don’t play any other tanks - or heroes for that matter).
You ask me to switch once, I say no.
You ask me to switch a second time I ignore you (if in chat I just ignore chat completely, if in Voice I put my wireless headset on my desk) where I could rightfully report you for harassment.
You have 0 right to tell others to switch heroes.

It matters in the way you ask.
Also if you keep asking (or more likely TELLING your team to swap), it can be considered harassment. If they said no, its a no, leave them alone and focus on yourself.

I did.
If you have a past history of reacting a certain way, then that will color how people treat you. And this board really isn’t helping you.
In future games, I would recommend turning coms off. And remember to take breaks if you feel yourself starting to get annoyed.
You can’t be silenced by 5 people alone. So either your callouts are…unwanted, or you just run into a lotta bad sports.

- You are taking offense that people didn’t ask to see a replay which shows chat that you didn’t offer to post. Further, expecting strangers to spend 30 minutes evaluating a replay to see if you did something wrong (or affirm you) is really expecting a bit too much. Unlike Blizzard staff, no one here will be paid to evaluate your games.
- “People like you” is accusatory language that will offend people because it blames them for a situation that they didn’t even witness.
- Self reflection is beneficial to everyone. It could be especially beneficial if you feel that you tend to be ignored frequently. After all, the only thing consistent in your games (and life) is you.

not to mention your first reaction should be what can I do to make the situation better. Don’t just look to your team.
You could say ‘hey, x character on the other team is doing this. i think doing y, would really counteract that!.’ and make sure to say it in a nice tone. and if nothing comes from it, don’t bring it up again.
it’s presentaiton.

They posted it.
But replays don’t show any type of chat. So I don’t know what they expected.

the thing is they never said no and suggested what I couldve done better. This is a TEAM game and in COMPETETIVE. If you cant take suggestions and adapt to what the team needs then why go into ranked? it just throws away any intent on winning and it just makes me as the main tank more frustrated. You people replying are saying I constantly harassed them when I simply just pointed out what we needed in a non toxic manner nor am I using my frustration as a scapegoat to be toxic towards my teammates but whatever im not going to get the help I need here. I just have to understand I will sometimes get people who dont have the intention on winning and pull the victim card whenever someone tells them that they are doing something wrong
If they ignore you, thats a no (or they are not in coms) They don’t need to say it.
I can take suggestions.
I’m a teacher, I need to improve and adapt to keep my job.
but it’s all in presentation.
If someone is shouting at me, belittling me, or being rude, I’m not really likely to take whatever suggestion it is.
If you keep repeating that same suggestion when I know it won’t work, I also won’t take it.
After all, a suggestion is just that. A suggestion. It’s not a command or an order, and I don’t have to take/listen to it.
Not to mention, you don’t have any authority over me. There’s nothing pressing me to listen to it.
Also, you could apply this to yourself.
You are not taking our suggestions and are getting defensive.
Please explain.

she came off the bat accusing me saying I was the toxic one and I was harassing people so yea, I can generalize her by “people like you”
Yeah, sorry, I meant posting a replay that shows chat. I clarified on my post. Thanks.

You did it several times.
We don’t know that.
All we can go off is how you are reacting on this board, and how we have seen you react in the past.

The thing is, in order to get silenced you have to had lots of reports and warnings in the past.
So you don’t get those things without something happening to cause it.
