Is it reportable for telling my team not to group mid?

I'm a bronzie playing with bronzies, but I just got threatened to be reported for telling my team to not group mid since the enemy had a better team fighting comp. They just kept on ranting about how I was salty and bad? for not grouping mid and split pushing bot as leblanc. BTW I was pretty damn fed I roamed bot and top. Also I was wandering why laning phase ends as soon as everyone reaches lv6 they just group mid and the side lanes don't exist anymore. Because of their only strategy of winning is to group mid I can't really do shit, when I try and clear bot/top wave they decide it's a good idea to start a team fight when I'm bot/top clearing a wave they just spam missing on me after they all die despite me spamming danger on them. Also I find it extremely interesting that most games end with all mid lane towers gone but close to no towers are destroyed in the side lanes.

While splitpushing is definitely a valuable tool, any good splitpusher knows it relies on your team. If your team is not enabling a good split, then you shouldn't be split pushing. In this case, you may not have died, but your team got wiped.

Sometimes you have to commit to a bad play if your team wants it.

Nope. Go with your first instinct. If the call is bad ignore it. Let your team get wiped for doing something stupid. I recently played a game like that one. Our team has a horrible team fight, but when they called for group mid I laughed and pushed another lane. Sad part was they didn't get ANY of the other members to 50% hp when they wiped.

Also majority of Mid lane towers gone, because it's the fastest route for Super minions to travel.
