I am legitimately curious. First off, no, I did not get banned/penalized or anything, just wondering if what I said could be considered toxic or not. Here's what happened: So, I was in a game with a very rude Yasuo. In the first half of the game, he died 10+ times and our jg was harassing him about it (toxic worthy, I'd say yes), but Yasuo wasn't being an angel either and was ping spamming, a lot, and being rude as well. (I ping muted him, but didn't mute his chat) I cant remember if he was cussing or not but he was overall being a bit of a jerk to everyone. Top was initially ticked at him too, but acted like his bff once he started carrying. Once later game did happen, he shouted in all chat "and they thought i was feeding lol noobs" (i don't remember if that was his exact sentence but it was something along those lines) and i responded, in all chat "I think you can be childish, but a decent player overall." was that toxic because i was technically insulting him? Later, he told everyone to report me in all chat cause i "was an idiot"

(i didn't go to the team fight and instead tried to keep minions out of our base. everyone died in that team fight and i'm guessing he blamed me) i didn't respond that time, though silently regretted ever saying he was a decent player. We did win, and after they left, I said "Ggwp."then, after yas left, i said" I still don't like our yas". then left. the only other things i said in chat were asking how to mute pings, thanks, and one other thing which I've forgotten now. Was i toxic that game?

Nope, it's not even directed at him. Just a bland statement about players in general. Even if it was directed at him, calling someone childish isn't toxic in my book. Fuck, I'm happy to be called a child; they have so much more fun! Idk about the game but that sentence? No not toxic.

In that sentence, not really. I mean yeah in a VERY loose sense it could be, but no. It could have just been you saying your thought outloud about general people...... But since you said that it was directed at him....... Toxicity to me is trying to upset or tilt someone, or make them feel bad about whatever it is they were doing.

You were not trying to put them down or tilt them, you were saying that you found how they were acting childish, even though they were playing well.

Yeah if that was me you were talking to, i would not have liked what you said..... But i would not feel like im being put down.
