When Tribunal bans the passive-aggressive player.

So, today I decided I wanted to play with my friend that was under level 30, level 19 to be exact. I understood the fact that some of the allies/enemies in the games I played with him aren't exactly the best players. Well, in one of these games I ended up having an AP MF mid and Sona who were queued in one of my games (Two of the people my friend and I reported for their flame against our team). Both of them were toxic towards me and my friend, so I retaliated with passive-aggressive responses towards them. To tribunal, "retard" and "bronze" is more offensive and unacceptable compared to "%%%%%%" and accusations of being a bad player and so on. Sure, it is my fault for responding to them in the first place, and I probably deserved the ban for being a salty Udyr main, but are two reports from a troll duo really greater than multiple bans from both teams?

All reports are equal in most cases. Being reported by one person or nine makes no difference.

The only thing a report really does is flag the game for Instant Feedback to scan the chat logs and hand out punishments accordingly.

Well yeah, I understand that, which is why I'm partially accepting the ban, and I understand that most bans are handed out accordingly to people who are consistently toxic, but these reports came from two toxic players themselves, and I wasn't harassing them. Tribunal sees my consistent passive aggressive chat as a worse offense?

Edit: I know, I'm complaining about this a bit too much, again I'm a salty Udyr player :^(
