I was playing aram and got singed who i hardly ever play. I got told to throw people more often when i had been throwing a decent amount the whole game with minimal team follow up. But this panth then keeps on telling me I'm bad cause im not throwing enough but hes 5/14 at the time and tells me thats my fault. long story short he asks everyone to report me and a brand on my team does. I didnt know people took aram that seriously

Well first off, score doesn't mean much in ARAMs. The person who built tank nami could be 20-4 if she just last hits everyone. Secondly, yea people take it seriously. There are eople who actually play ARAM only accounts. I have many more ARAMs than normals, but thats because they are easier, shorter, and usually more fun. You should try your best to win, but you having fun is really what matters. If someone is getting in your way of having fun then you mute the fucker.

Some do, but they really shouldn't. Just ignore the bad apples.

As long as you're not blatantly feeding, or you AFK, it's not really that big of a deal to most ARAM people. If you were 0/12/4 though, that'd probably get under people's skin for the same reason it does in normals. The only real difference is that it doesn't take as long to get out of matches with crappy teammates, which is why I prefer it to 5v5 solo queue and play it much more often.

well, I mean, everyone is expected to try at least a little bit. If you're not even giving it a little bit of effort, you probably shouldn't be playing a team game. Regarding your case specifically, it was probably just a bad apple, nothing to really be concerned over.

aram is like seriously the most toxic mode in the game if you don't count dominion with its bots infestation. in aram, they rush to feed first blood and then afterwards when all five of the team are actually present and accounted for, they all just kinda stand back and wait for their ally to go in before even thinking about going in themselves. if their ally dies, then it's time to cower in fear even more than usual. if the enemy dies when your ally 1v5s the enemy, then it's time to go full ham 1v4. hey, if your ally that you're supposedly better than can kill 1v5, you can kill 1v4 easy. then you fail and then your team gets owned 3v4 in a harsh initiation by the enemy team. then you two are up fighting 5 all by yourselves.
