So for example im playing top lane and notice that before 10 minutes the enemy TF has 5 or 6 and the enemy bot lane has 2 or 3 kills already so all i say in chat is a quick "please stop feeding" it was not even directed at anyone but then my bot lane took offense to that and started griefing the rest of the game about how he was not feeding and then when the support and jungle came top lane and dove me repetitively it turned into full flame about how i was feeding (never mind the fact the enemy adc was 1v2ing them) so basically the game is over at this point with the bot lane and jungler flaming away about me saying "please stop feeding"

This happens allot there are so many individuals that saying anything at all not even aimed at them and they tilt of the face of the earth. For real there's a difference between being toxic and simply asking you to stop making this game harder then it needs to be or sometimes even being helpful (asking the feeding full ad garren to pls build some defense stats)

so please stop being offended so easily its dumb and you make the game less fun for yourself and your teammates and even make it more likely you will lose

You should probably remove "stop feeding" from things you say. Not that its offensive. At best it is useless, at worst its inflammatory.

There are basically 2 scenarios. 1 they are intentionally feeding. 2 they are just losing. If they are intentionally feeding then telling them to stop is completely useless. They are deliberately trying to lose the game and telling them to stop is not going to change that. If they are losing then its just not helpful in anyway. They are losing because they aren't good enough to win. Telling them to stop feeding is basically accusing them of intentionally feeding so of course people get defensive.

How about instead of saying that, you just don't say that and play the game?

Or just don't say useless crap like "stop feeding" and grow up yourself... You are just shifting the blame away from your own behavioral issues... its a game and competition, ppl are gonna be better than others and out play them, it's not "feeding." Get a clue plz...

This could all be avoided if they just removed the chat feature and implemented phrases. Things like "Let's do the Dragon/Baron" "Group up please" etc. In a free to play game that anyone can get access to having a chat feature is just detrimental to everyone involved.

What you said wasn't offensive but it doesn't help either. You could have asked them to play safe by csing under turret and wait for team fights to turn things around. If they did started griefing like you said in response to your comment, then I think they don't even deserve to win. People should should focus on improving and not to shift the blame to others.

ok your at fault too saying "please stop feeding" will hella tilt alot of players

"please stop feeding"... OH ty like i didn't know that already... hey top said quit feeding lets miraculously turn our play around and win this lane

try... "mid you cant fight tf right now hug turret and safely farm with abilities... and just leave if you get low" <--- way less passive aggressive and actually is constructive and offers your ally advice on how to actually salvage his lane

when you say "please stop feeding" and im getting stomped all i think is hey stfu mate mute ... its not being offended its that I'm already annoyed at my poor performance and now my ally is being a passive aggressive twat
