Thank You Lyte
I know you get lots of hate for the recent bans but I want you to know that I appreciate the steps you are taking. Taking a hard line can be difficult but unless some one stands up, nothing will ever change. You have every right, as the curators of this game, to create the community that you want.
As much as I hated doing it, there was a long stretch of time where I would drag my chat off screen so I didn't have to be distracted by the negativity. I found I enjoyed League much more when I interacted only via ping. I completely understand getting frustrated, and being able to tell a player they are not pulling their weight is an important part of team play, however, some of the personal attacks I witnessed should never be acceptable.
I look forward to a league where hostile interactions are infrequent and sportsmanship is the norm.
