They go 9/3 and you go 1/9 and 3/14 and literally screw any chance they have of winning.
It's OK you had a bad game. But not giving someone honor who worked their ass off trying to carry you isn't ok.
Feel free to add comments about why you think you should honor someone.

Posui Gart3 votesWhen enemy junglers camps my midlane while ally jungler camps bot so they win their lane and carry our team-its an honor to jungler, not to that WTF MID WHY ARE YOU SO BAD I GOT 2X YOUR CS, WE CARRIED YOU adc. When my jungler farms his devourer stacks while toplaner tries to gank all lanes so we dont lose before 20 min, and then that jungler casually makes his quadrakills-i will honor toplaner, not jungler Its not about KDA, its about effort
Serevas2 votesAdditionally if that 9/3 person was a supremely salty individual, they're not getting shit for honor, in fact they're still getting reported.
xReadyPlayerOnex1 votesYou assume too much. I didn't say the 9/3 was salty or not. IF THOUGH they go 9/3 and were nice and all the other fairy nonsense you're thinking about... YOU OWE THEM HONOR.
Serevas2 votesI didn't assume anything, I said "IF THAT 9/3 PERSON WAS SUPREMELY SALTY"
Not that 9/3 person is super salty, so I actually didn't assume anything, you made the assumption. I simply added a layer to the situation in which the person isn't owed honor. Additionally carrying isn't done through KDA alone, if they went 9/3, but never left top lane the entire game leaving their team to get wrecked everywhere else, they're still not owed anything as they weren't carrying.
High KDA does not translate to carrying and mathematically if you had teammates that between the two of them were 4/24, the enemy team is pretty fed and that low death timer is likely achieved due to selfish play.
Furthermore, what of support players? What if that 1/9 person extended out is 1/9/35?
Your attitude where people are owed things is the problem with most people today. Nobody is owed a single thing, they have to earn it. You aren't owed a trophy for showing up to the soccer game even if your team finishes last place. You're not owed a job because you went through college. You're not owed a pay raise because you've been working at a specific place for xyz number of years.
You earn what you get, you're owed nothing. Simply having a positive K/D ratio doesn't mean you've earned anything.
Do you even know what the Honor categories are actually for? Friendly, meaning you actually were nice and enjoyable to be around in terms of the chat. Helpful, meaning you actually helped your team learn something about the game, champions, goals, item builds, etc. Teamwork, meaning you actually cooperated well with your team, maybe even took the role of shot caller and aided your team in everything they accomplished. And Honorable Opponent, meaning you weren't a complete dick while winning/losing, no whining in chat about your team, or about how the enemy team is only winning because they're playing OP crap.
Last I checked none of those are defined by having a high kill/death ratio.
So no you're not owed honor for going 9/3 and having teammates perform poorly.

What about if I play toplane akali and roam to every lane, trying to help get kills everywhere but end up with a huge KDA. Do I get an honor? Because I never seem to.

Yes screw all support players with positive attitudes and good map presence, let's all arbitrarily "owe" someone that likely got several kills early then fed the enemy that gold return putting the rest of his team out of contention. Why? Because some random guy on the forums told you to.
disregardable1 votesAs an ADC main, I'd say around 70% of the times I do badly it's because my teammates play selfishly or greedily. Sometimes I really do just lose lane and position poorly, but most of the time my teammates would rather waste all of their shit on the squishy support Morgana instead of saving me.
xReadyPlayerOnex1 votesYes... Ok... Why does this belong to this post?
disregardable1 votesBecause your teammates will usually think they're carrying their scrub adc when they don't peel for her. ^^
Grashnim1 votesThe honor system is a joke, 99% useless. The only way to achieve anything is to only ever play with friends. Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb.
xReadyPlayerOnex1 votesAnyone downvoting this is a rude, extremely arrogant, thinking WAAAAY too much about it or just trolling. Please think about it. You owe the people who do extremely well in a game honor when you do extremely poorly. It's just nice.
Serevas2 votesThink about it, but don't think too much or you might actually step into some form of reality.
Valderis Vandala1 votesThe honor system has nothing to do with comparing KDA or winning the match.
It's about assisting new players, friendliness, teamwork and attitude/behavior towards your opponents. http://gameinfo.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/game-info/get-started/honor/
It's more of a measure of how good of a person you are, not how good you are at the game. Talking about KDA or game performance in relation to the honor system is just complete nonsense. And as Moberrybusiness said, nobody owes anyone any honor. Besides, what are you getting worked up about? Honor is so damn easy to get, just be a friendly and fun-loving guy and you'll get bombarded with this stuff.
