Autofilling should not be a thing!

I don't think I've seen an thread regarding autofilling gather any attention on forum, mostly because I am browsing eune forum most of the time and there's nothing ever gathering any attention, so that's why I've decided to post here about this issue - cause I personally think it's an issue.

League is widely known for having a mostly toxic community, and that'll happen in any competitive game in which you'll playing with total strangers to achieve something. It took me 3 years to realize flaming doesn't help a bit, so I totally understand some players.

Anyway I wanna talk about autofilling in this thread. While its purpose is to lower queue time it does so at a price. I don't know how many of you are willing to play a role you're not in the mood to or you are not acquainted to just to save a couple of minutes that you'd spend in queue, most likely alt-tabbing. Does that seem like a fair deal? I don't think so. Actually I don't know why would anyone think so. I've played a lot of league recently and I can't recall ever enjoying autofilling, no matter if I had won or lost, most of the times the latter. I can't focus when i'm autofilling, most of the time I queue I want to play some specific roles cause I am willing to play them and I am in the mood to play them. As good as I would be at the autofilled role it doesn't matter the least if that's something i am not willing to play, I would d just go and make mistake after mistake while desperately waiting for the match to end.

I'd like to know what you think about it, cause in my view it's certainly a big problem, such a big one i'm wondering how it hasn't been addressed yet.

Why is it okay for us to tell each other "know how to play every role" but when Riot does it there's suddenly a problem?

I will take autofill over "pray you don't have lag and/or last pick in order to get the role you want" which was how it was for many years. Autofill is just a nicer version of what we previously had.
