How I've Improved My Behavior In-Game (Former Toxic Player)

Basically, up til about a few weeks ago I was working a part time job, while looking for a full-time one, so when I wasn't filling out applications, I was playing League of Legends. I play support a lot, because it's my best role in my opinion. With playing a role like jungle or support, your teammates are more likely to flame you because they're unable to accept responsibility for their actions, or you just genuinely made a mistake. After being flamed, I'd give into frustration and anger and tell my teammates some things I'm pretty ashamed I've said, or just go AFK. This eventually lead to a ton of chat restrictions and low priority queue times that I know I deserved. It wasn't until after my last chat restriction, about a week or two ago at 75 games, that I had changed my outlook on this game. I found out that I played worse when I was arguing over who's the bigger asshole, so I started realizing that you only really need to send about 2-6 messages per game to actively communicate with your team. I eventually got my new full-time job, and play League of Legends on my days off, or after work. I learned to value the time I had to play, I didn't want to ruin the little free time I had left in my day after work or days off. League of Legends is my favorite game in the world, and I want to enjoy the time I have to play the game I love most. Yeah, there's some kid I don't know who's pissed at me that he lost his lane. Someone's gotta win and someone's gotta lose. I know I'm nowhere near the best support player alive, but I certainly know I'm not the worst, and that's all that matters. So, I've either started muting people, or just killing them with kindness and tried to make the best of my games. I do my best in every game I play, and if I lose, it's nobody's fault but my own; there was something else I should have done, or done better.

I know this is a long post, and a tad bit personal, but I hope like the toxic players that do read this can reform. Toxic players are still players at the end of the day, and they've experienced just as much as any other player on the rift, but they certainly aren't enjoying the game nearly as much as you other players out there.
