So when did people think THIS was okay?
The past week there has been a rapidly growing trend where people have been attacking EVERYONE, enemies and allies alike. Not just any ordinary trash talk or chiding, though. It's been going zero to a million just in the champion select screen, outright death and rape threats, looking for any excuse to throw the entire game, even by autotilting and triggering themselves over a person's bans or something even pettier, and overall just being incorrigible little shits.
I don't know who encouraged this behavior, but it has already spiraled out of control. Whoever is responsible for it, ban them forever, ban everyone on their friends list forever, and anyone who even so much as THINKS about their name should also be banned forever. It's time to show that you are not going to tolerate this shit for even a nanosecond, Riot. Make people fear for the security of their account every waking second of their lives, and every last one of their smurfs, and any new account they even think about opening up once their main ones get banned.
