The community is EXTRA salty this year~

So, I don't know why but the community is really bad this year. People might think that with the new reports going to riot faster, more people would be scared and be a tad bit nicer, but I have to say, that's not the case at all. If you guys remember, (if you played league when it first came out), Patch 1.0.0.120. This was a patch that completely DESTROYED the op champion, Evelynn . This was really bad with people who enjoyed playing her because if you ever played her, you would get banned because she was SO bad. Her win rate was horrible, and so many people would flame any Eveylnn they saw. Riot fixed this problem though, but I feel like this happened this year too. Right now, it's the tank meta, so a lot of people go champions who are tanky, especially in top and the jungle. I play Diana jungle, which I've never got flamed at for doing so, but when I played Diana top, people would flame me constantly. People would would type stuff like, "Why did you pick Diana? She is SOOOO BAD!", or if we were losing it would always be my fault because Diana isn't a "Viable top laner" and how she isn't a tank. Also, I played (satan) Teemo when ever I feel like he can really win vs their top laner. Of course since I'm playing Teemo, the enemy would camp me, but the worst part is that my team would flame me, JUST FOR GOING TEEMO. Like with Diana, they would say similar stuff like, "I didn't help you once because your playing Teemo, and Teemo is crap.". Even if we won, my team would STILL report me for going that champion. I just really wish that people wouldn't flame someone just because they're playing a champion who isn't in "meta" or isn't played a lot so they automatically think I'm bad.

This rarely happens to me. While the community is definitely very toxic, I'm never usually flamed/reported for simply PLAYING a champion.. it's more like when I do BAD with that champion that I get flamed and/or reported.

I win most of my Janna mid games. I also get players who decide to troll just because of a pick or act like they have no sense.
