we have all been there in the middle of a game and you hit tab and realize there is a member of your team that is massively negative and instead of running out with low hp they dive in or they go off alone to feed the other team and when you confront them you get "who cares its not ranked" idk about everyone else but that is very annoying just because a game isn't ranked doesn't mean you have to play like that and make stupid mistakes on purpose i have been in alot of games where one teammate is like -22 kills and then they blame everyone else for the teams fail something has to be done about this reporting doesnt seen to work

I get why it happens. To them, it's a meaningless game played for fun, and when they aren't having fun, it's not worth playing anymore. Because they don't have real consequences, they either don't consciously realize, or else don't care, that they're affecting other people with their behavior. If we were playing a physical sport in a friend's backyard, or a board/card game, or you're on a high school/college team, your behavior would get you banned from playing with them, and then who else are you going to easily play with? In League, there are millions ready to play, generally completely unaware of your behavior.. and if there somehow were consequences, and if you haven't spent much/any money on the game, making a new account is barely an inconvenience. You don't have to rely on anyone for long term unless you're making a 5-man team. And honestly, I can't think of a way to prevent such a mindset without affecting queue times.

People see League as "just a game" when in reality it's a competition.
