An apology to Caqtaindarc, UnluckyySeven, GareNilla, and IronmanQA

So last night in an ARAM game I was playing alongside Caqtaindarc, and I said something I shouldn't have.

"Like all women, she's upset that she isn't the center of attention."

To avoid name and shame, I'm not going to address any of his/her actions during that game, only my own. Specifically, only that comment. While I do feel justified in saying something, I shouldn't have presumed someone's gender based solely on behavior or the fact that their champ was female (They were Irelia). I wanted to publicly apologize for saying something that isn't necessarily fair to not only the players on my team, but mouthing off in a way that was potentially offensive to people who were on my team but not acting poorly. I should have said 'children' or 'adc/assassin mains', and not 'women'.

Since it was a public blunder, a public apology is called for, and in the future I'll attempt to keep my personal arguments out of game.

It doesn't matter what you call them if it's an insult. "Like all ADCs, she's upset that she isn't the center of attention" is just as unsportsmanlike and negative as what you said. It doesn't belong in chat. If you've got nothing nice to say, don't say it at all. That might sound childish, but it's what you agreed to when you signed up to play the game.

To be honest I understand why you apologized but hey, we all get a little frustrated and salty all the time. It good of you to apologize but honestly i don't really think it offended them TOO much so don't take it so hard. But you did the right thing.
