To all the "be a strong adult"ers: here is my COMPLETELY UNEDITED chat log of the game that got me banned:
It's hilariously tame compared to what the others were saying to me, and also, not super rude imo. Slightly negative, but I'm never flaming anyone etc.
I was playing botlane with my friend, who doesn't really type.
Game 2
AriCei: i am also a box enthusiast
AriCei: this what happens when you take 5 mins to get here
AriCei: :D
AriCei: laters
(this was me not having time to leash for the jg who afkd at fountain until waves had already met- me and my duo then went to a very difficult lane matchup when toplaner started complaining about me randomly)
AriCei: pre rough lane early wont lie
AriCei: also wait who were you that you muted me last game :/
AriCei: LOL
AriCei: :D
AriCei: welp i wasnt rlly negative and you were legit inting. so i guess we just mute eachother now. gl!
AriCei: the rumble
AriCei: bein pissy about last game i guess
(he told me who he was, a guy who was legitimately intentionally feeding the other team and harassing teammates, me included)
AriCei: ps bot is getting shoved haaard eh?
AriCei: o darn
AriCei: try
AriCei: ty&**
AriCei: lol
AriCei: wp.
AriCei: too ez
AriCei: ?
AriCei: aaaaanyways
AriCei: that first towert gold eh?
AriCei: lol aight
AriCei: sure.
AriCei: i rlly gotta stop doing late game team carries
AriCei: fkn cc tho lol
AriCei: lol.
AriCei: like they are on our inhib
AriCei: and this is our fault.
AriCei: you are letting them walk all over this lane
AriCei: LOOKIT OUR PICKS
AriCei: of course we did
AriCei: we got the first kill which we had no business doing
AriCei: watch the map dude.
(that is where the rest of the team gangs up on us, blaming us for the caitlyn zyra or some such destroying us early game. I pinged summoners, we gave up wave after wave when no one came. They were under our tower all game with no summs. We died maybe a total of 3 times combined, but were down crazy farm. And of course they got caught out on every roam.)
AriCei: its a losing lane
AriCei: esp when given free reign lol
AriCei: w/e
AriCei: enjoy the loss
AriCei: yep. that;s me.
AriCei: stop being toxic dude
(Me responding to hard-flaming towards me and my friend)
AriCei: lol 3
AriCei: but pls do
AriCei: gives me a reason to not waste my time here anymore
AriCei: and it still doesnt make you right
AriCei: this isnt grade school
(Responding to "we're all going to report and you're gonna get banned lololol" mentality)
AriCei: lol.
AriCei: yw
AriCei: flame me then call me toxic. logic op
AriCei: i never flamed...
AriCei: lol.
AriCei: nope
AriCei: i typed
AriCei: didnt flame
(look at the above and tell me where i wasn't trying to explain my opinion about my difficulties- relatively calmly in the face of their childish insults and flaming)
AriCei: was pre fkn tame flaming if thats what you wanna call it
AriCei: you just dont like commuinication
AriCei: thats mb.
AriCei: lol
AriCei: ^
AriCei: right.
AriCei: take a look at yourselves and your superiority complex here
AriCei: right
AriCei: this has gotten weird
(Once they start on the tired old lines about how big a loser in real life I am, etc etc.)
AriCei: sorry you are incapable of a discussion
AriCei: im out lol
AriCei: not going to argue with children.
AriCei: never shoulda been an arguement
AriCei: :D
AriCei: bullying is real in this game lol
(Finally, after 30 some minutes of enduring their harassment, i crack and get pretty sarcastic- but even at my worst here, I'm not sure it's that toxic)
AriCei: mb
AriCei: dw blame all on me
AriCei: to feel better about yourselves
AriCei: :D
AriCei: wp
AriCei: haha wp
AriCei: lol mb for feeding annie

AriCei: wait how am i now leading in farm :/
AriCei: weird
AriCei: LOL
AriCei: yep

AriCei: since i got flamed before for trying to save base :D
AriCei: LOL
AriCei: o dam gg
AriCei: teemo mvp
AriCei: wpwp
I will admit I've been worse in some games, and I've also been better, but this is a good middle example.
Seriously, I EXTREMELY rarely resort to empty, direct insults, and when I do, it's almost exclusively "bronzie" or "noob", often with "fkns" littered throughout, which if mature people can't handle in banter between each other, our society has bigger problems.
I NEVER EVER tell people to kill themselves or tell them i hope their family dies. I don't make assumptions about them as real people.
I ALWAYS have a helpful message in my "flaming" at the very least, though it may not always come out as positive as I'd like it to.
Anyways. I'm curious to see if any of the responders with superiority messages change their minds after this..
