In-Game Harassment

Recently I took a wuovk break from League of Legends (about 8 days) and then I came back just a few days ago and ive been playing 5-7 games a day. I did not notice ot before my break, but for the love of god this community is so toxic. I don't know why, but people have a bully mentality. For instance last game I played Draven in a normal game and the game started with are mid and jungle cursing, name calling, telling each other to uninstall, etc. So eventually that blew over and out of no where this talon starts flaming the shit out of me for "ksing." This talon hoes in on me hardcore and I just stood back and read what he said because I did not really care. This guy was calling me everything and anything and especially liked making fun of my rank. Now let me tell you this is a normal game and I don't play ranked i just enjoy playing Draven in normals and this guy wouldn't stop flaming me because I was silver. Eventually it got to the point where I was don't being called shit so I said "Sorry if I did anything to upset you, but I'm not just going to sit here and be flamed by someone doing worse then me, I'll take my silver talent elsewhere hehe xd: and out of no where everyone started ponging me telling me to ask and that I should kill my self. I mean I didn't do anythi g wrong and out of no where everyone started saying they were going to report me and calling me silver trash and that I should leave and after that one. After that I asked and I know it was wrong but at that moment I didn't care.

All in all I don't know what happened while I was gone or maybe I just didn't notice because I was used to it but damn. This was only one incident that happened and honestly I thought i was excited to start playing again but I really dread playing now. Leave any and all comments would love to read. Thank you.

Just mute and ignore the people harrasing you. Focus on enjoying the game and have fun!

I mean people like that are why I /mute all as soon as more than 2 people start being negative. The people you came across were probably a premade of unranked or boosted salt lords, because if they're doing worse than a silver player and flaming them, especially in normals, they probably fit into one of those categories. Unfortunately, I've noticed that 2-5% of the community is like this, especially in low elo, so if you're lucky you don't run into them a lot, but generally you'll get at least 1 in every couple of games, possibly on your team. I've no clue why people are like that since it only decreases their chances of winning in a team game, but mute commands exist for a reason.
