When did this game become so afraid of offending people?

Seriously. This game has become an embarrassment. We have become so afraid of "offending people" that you can't call someone rubbish for going 1/15 INTENTIONALLY, to PISS PEOPLE OFF IN RANKED, without getting banned? That's a joke. What about the person who you banned because of the person intentionally feeding? How about not offending him, the one who actually cares about a ranked game? League, your attitude is garbage and wimpy, and you just lost another paying customer. You should grow a pair of balls and let people have freedom of speech instead of being afraid of everything and not wanting feeders and 13 year olds to get butthurt. Freaking joke man.

I spent the first half of the game saying, "stop dying, please stop dying". after he was 0/10 and he and his partner kept saying, "oh dont worry, you can do better, we believe in you" I spent the next half using expletives. And that is besides the point that i'm trying to get at. They were intentionally doing this. Yet I got banned. Because Riot is afraid of 13 year olds and feeders getting upset.

You do realize freedom of speech is protection of your spoken/written opinion when it comes to the country and it's government, from the government? It's not a free pass to be an asshole, pal.

You're right, it's not a free pass to be an asshole. So when players ARE assholes, intentionally feeding other peoples lanes, what gives them the right to do that? And what gives them the right to NOT allow me to call them out on that? Why the double standard, "pal"?

Its an incredibly weak and frustrating system. People are allowed to play as poorly as they want in Ranked, feed as much as they want, but if you get frustrated at all and call them "bad", you will get a two week ban. Meanwhile you can AFK every single game and get nothing but low priority ques, or intentionally feed every game and have no punishment at all.

There are 5 players in a game on Summoner's Rift.

According to your story:

  1. 1 or 2 of them were intentionally feeding.
  2. You were raging and insulting them.
  3. Two innocent players had to put up with both of you.

You weren't punished solely for insulting the feeders; you were punished for helping to ruin the game for those two innocent players.

Sometimes, people can be overly sensitive and looking for something to be offended by. This is not one of those occasions. Just don't trash talk if someone is playing like crap. I'm sure that they already know that. If your rank is too important to be risked by having other players you didn't approve of on your team, then play with a pre-made of 5. Also, learn to actually have fun in the game. Don't get so mad so easily (even if the summoner in question is terrible).
