Really?

Playing a normals as Morde, and after I get into an argument about how I couldn't sidestep a Jhin W because I don't have fast reaction times, our Caitlyn calls me a bronze noob. Then I say that I'm not bronze and also say my rank (gold 5) and then sona and zed start spitting words at me too, because they were gold 3 and 4, respectively. I felt so sad that I decided to quit playing, and then I realized that they would probably report me for afk,etc, so I decided to go back into game. The moment I joined and before I could mute them all and continue playing, they said this:

Sona :trash back Zed : we were better off without you Caitlyn boo Sona Bug off (omitted swear word)

Link for proof (I also omitted their usernames): http://imgur.com/a/zmlBD I feel like quitting league right now, due to how emotionally ignorant they were about me( and I can say to other people too based off of what they said to me). Why do people think that having a higher rank means they can say whatever they want to lower elo people? Just how addicted are people to preserving their online identity as a superior?

These people have literally nothing in their lives worth anything so they cling to that shiny special ranking in a video game with their entire being to feel like they aren't complete wastes of life. I know it's hard sometimes dealing with that kind of behavior, believe me you're not alone, but it's best to not let it get to you and just think about the sad lives these kinds of people live to cause them to behave in such a way and try to feel sorry for them.

You still deserve to get a report for afk/leaving, i hope you didn't forget to report them for whatever they said though.

I've learned to just mute every game and play music. It isn't wrong to assume every game will be toxic, it is. That's the game we play and live in now. Can't do anything but to mute and enjoy the game for your own expenses and not others. Doesn't mean to intentionally feed but you won't be reported for AFK nor will be reported for Refusing to Communicate.
