Suicide rates are 0.01%.

You have a greater chance of winning the lottery than actually hitting one suicidal dude with a KYS in side chat.

Adding to that, I believe that being toxic in video games is an outlet for frustrated teens who are struggling with issues in real life.

Don't take it away from them.
