My take on toxicity and the community

I will try to explain to the best of my ability. Now this is from my own experience, so I can't hold it over the entire community, but I think it's pretty accurate consider the bitching on the boards. I would say about 90% of the time I see someone raging can be attributed to 3 things:

1. Last pick troll locked in a lane already taken and then proceeds to troll the entire game because they didn't get their way
2. Someone runs down lane as Lulu going 0-12 and building Zz to "distract the enemy team"
3. A player playing a champ that they literally have 0 games with and doing horrid the whole game. Not intentionally feeding, but still ending 0-10-2.

Again, there are obviously 12 year old call of duty players that spam "%%%%%%" and "%%%%" the whole game, and they should be punished accordingly. But these things account for most of the toxicity that I personally see in the game. Some suggestions include:

1. If a player does this, ban them from ranked for 2 weeks on first offense, permaban them from ranked on second offense.
2. If a player does this, ban them from rnaked for 2 weeks, on first offense, permaban them from ranked on second offense.
3. This is the hardest one to regulate. One idea that I have to simply make it so you have to have played a certain number of games with a champ in order to play them in ranked. I see no harm whatsoever to this idea, only good.

I see this could create a problem in normal games. In my opinion, normal games are for trying new things, so case #3 is completely out. If a player continues to do the other 2, then go ahead and bad them from normal games as well. Let them go play co-op vs bots. If they get reported for ruining those games too, then ban them from those and allow them to only play custom games.

I honestly believe if they adjusted just these things, the toxicity of the games, and the community in general, would go way down. I mean, look how long they have been banning players for toxic language. Has the game gotten any better? No. In fact, I see a lot of players complaining that it is getting worse. Probably because there is more of this unpunished behavior going on. Now, I'm not saying it is right to call someone an idiot for doing one of these things (even though they are), but it is going to happen. I see it happen. Not going to lie, I've done it. And honestly, as someone in the game watching a situation take place, I am more likely to report the person doing one of these trolling things than the person that is "being toxic", because I think the cause is much more toxic than the reaction. The same player goes through trolling and gets multiple people banned for "verbal abuse", which is why you don't see a decrease in the toxicity of the community. By punishing that 1 single player, you could help to avoid reactions by many players. if you want to fix an issue, you start by addressing the problem, not the reaction. I mean, that is like me trying to fix global warming by turning on my air conditioner.

I've included one picture of a person that perfectly fits my example. This 1 person is responsible for many players raging because of their trolling ways. In my opinion, it makes more sense to punish 1 player that is the cause of toxicity more than it does to punish countless players that have a reaction to it. No, I didn't harass this player. Yes, all 3 of my teammates, and 2 of the enemy players did. Yes, they probably got punished. No, this player didn't.
