Telling people to "kys" needs to stop

I recently played a match where I was AD Kennen in the jungle just to try it out. It was going okay until my grandparents came over to greet my family; I quickly told my team that I would be gone for 5 min more or less because my grandparents were here. Anyways, I came back after 10 min, apologized for being gone for so long, and I promptly witnessed our top laner telling me to "kys and your grandparents". This behavior needs to stop; people seem to think that it is a light humor but to people who have lost close ones from suicide it is incredibly infuriating and depressing. Maybe that reaction is just my experience but my point still stands that you should not be telling people to kys.

tl;dr don't tell people to kys

The use of "kys" isn't right, but shit, neither is dipping away for ten minutes. Those minutes are extremely valuable to your team, and giving them up could easily have cost the game.

While I agree with that "KYS" is not okay, I don't understand why we need fifty threads about it.

Expecting people not to get pissed for you wasting an accumulated 40 minutes of their lives (and quite likely 80-160 minutes, given that a 10 minute afk would probably lose the game)

Oh here we go, another case of entitled kids. Let's pamper the offended baby who doesn't give a shit about the other 9 people in the game that HE que'd up for. Let's wag our finger at the guy who tells this kid how it is. This generation coming up is a bunch of morons and needs a huge reality check if they ever get a job.

I agree totally.

However you also shouldn't afk. Riot needs to do more about afkers and that fact that afks are so common leads some players to be toxic.
