Telling the other team to push mid is whining?

2 teammates are afk the second the game starts. at 5 mins they are still afk. I tell the other team "this game is reeeeeal fun guys, push mid and just win". They I get a barrage of replies saying I'm whining, I'm selfish, I'm complaining etc. Are you kidding me? What is wrong with people. OF COURSE the game is a bad game, OF COURSE its a waste of time to keep playing, OF COURSE I'm mad when I lose my series because 2 people go afk from the very start of the game. Is it really a big deal to tell the other team to push mid?

I would say it is a Negative attitude and was not needed. You choose to type this is not something done on reflex, this take conscious thought. So yes I would say it is whining. Play the best YOU can till 20 mins then try to FF, until then this is whining, complaining and a negative attitude.

you can't forfeit if your teammates are afk though. The surrender will never go through. In my opinion i think op has every right to do what they have done.

If your team mates are afk, the minimum needed to surrender is reduced by 1 for each person afk. So if 2 are afk then you can still surrender easy with the other 3.

Does he have a Right to do it? Yes. Does it make it allowed under the Summoners code? NO.

Regardless of the reason the OP doesn't need to complain that is a being negative. Can he rage and scream? Yes. Is it punishable? Yes. This is no Different then if your team gives up first blood and he says GG we lose. This is a negative behavior. He has to make a Choice to type it out. He has to choose to bring the negativity into the game. He can just as easy not type at all.

To me if he really wants to vent his frustration at these afk's. He needs to play and report and maybe even put in a support ticket for individual players. This is the best way to deal with these afk's so they get punished.

Whining in the game accomplishes nothing other then getting everyone in the game even more frustrated and yourself possibly reported.

Would I report for this? NO. Would I say lets do our best? yes. Would I FF at 20? Absolutely.
