A general issue that needs to be addressed
First off.. I love this game. I play this game a lot. I spend a lot of money on this game. And I will probably always play this game. I also play a lot of other games (all are competitive and online). Here's the issue I come across when comparing LoL to other multiplayer games: Bans on innocent players having fun are abundant and players whom intentionally lose games and afk are ignored. Everyone has a bit of "toxic" in them. Do I get toxic often? No. Do I sometimes? Sure. But I never say anything way too out of line and neither do most players whom you consider "toxic". I'm not posting because I'm banned or anything. I'm posting because I have friends who have gotten banned for the most petty comments but then I go in to ranked and that's NOT the issue at all. The issue is the players who give up early, get mad and feed intentionally, or just afk leaving little to no chance for my team to win.
Here's an example of what I'm talking about: (Removed link because riot thinks i should just report him and removed my post the first time. But this has almost nothing to do with this guy, so I'm gonna leave it out. It was a picture of a player saying he was throwing on purpose, btw)
That player. That "intentional feeder". He/she will probably not get a ban..Not even a chat restriction. Hence, the issue. Please consider taking your ban on toxic players a little more lightly (the community isn't all too worried about them anyway). We know how the mute button works. Instead, take a heavier focus on afk's and people whom intentionally feed or just intentionally lose. And when a player who takes (ranked) games seriously reports an afk or an intentional feeder, look at the game details. If it's true, revert the losing team's LP back to what it was and consider the ban for the problem player. I'm sure if measures like these were taken, we'd see a lot less "intentional feeding" and more players trying their hardest to win.
