** Punishment 100% justified.**
No matter what anyone says or does in game you are not to react or respond to it in any way shape or form
either mute and or ignore.
There is absolutely no justification to meet negativity with more negativity
Here is a couple of quotes from the mods regarding " defending yourself"
(LET'S NOT FORGET THAT I HAVE THE RIGHT TO DEFEND MY SELF WHEN SOMEONE ATTACKS ME VERBALLY ESPECIALLY ON THE FU*KING INTERNET)

No, you actually don't. This isn't a free speech issue. Riot controls the space, which grants them the authority to set the rules. If they don't want you in their house, you have to leave.

You still don't have the right to "defend yourself". That has never been a "right" in League. "Defending yourself" is rude, annoying, and turns one toxic player into multiple that your teammates and the enemy have to deal with. And it doesn't actually stop toxicity.
Also here is my standard copy paste gift for you op I doubt you'll get he message though
There is no justification for combating negativity with more negativity in a video game.
^^^^^What part of this is such difficult concept to comprehend?????^^^^^^^^
If you are getting angry at the status or outcome of a video game that is a personal issue dealing with emotional stability / anger management. It has nothing to do with Riot , the game , Competitive, legitimate rule breakers or anything else you can come up with.
It also portrays you as an immature childish uncivilized player and person.
If someone intentionally feeds/ afk etc and you flame them for it
you deserve to be punishing just as much as they do.
If someone calls you every name in the book and makes up some new ones -- and you respond
you deserve to be punished just as much as they do.
If someone simply isn't answering your pings , chat or playing the way you think they should and you "call them out"
You deserve to be punished
It does not matter "why" you did it ...the fact is you did . That's the only think that matters in the above cases.
No matter what game mode your in certain things just are not allowed reacting to anything you dont like in game is one of the things not allowed,
In other words you ( according to Riots behavioral policy) have no right to
- be verbally abusive/ verbally offesive
- react or "defend yourself" against others being verbally abusive
- chastise those legitimately breaking the rules
- Chastise those who you don't agree with
- complain about anything
- Rant about any personal grievance in the game
- giving any type of negative commentary regarding whats happening in the game
Doing any of the above can lead to various punishments including permaban's
So here is the lessons you should take from this on the mature and civilized way to handle things which will also ensure you are following Riots behavioral guidelines
So yes if someone is saying the most vile insults to you ever spoken,
the proper action according to Riot is mute and report without any response including " report x or i'm muting you"
If any amount of people are breaking every game play rule in the book
The proper action according to Riot is ignore them don't respond with anything -- even "report x"
yes you might lose a match and some lP if in ranked its still just a video game and not a serious life or death situation if you do.
and really---
Which is the best coarse of action if you don't want to be punished given Riots current policy?
1 Not reacting or responding in any way shape or form and losing a match and some Lp ...which really has no "real value" and can eventually be replaced
2 Reacting, "defending yourself", "sarcastic " responses, chastising rule breakers or simply just complaining about think you don't like in game and risking losing your entire account that does have monetary value?
The safest option is in other words if you cant say anything positive ..without being sarcastic about it .. don't say anything at all.
If you pick option 2 its inevitable that you will eventually end up perma banned once you reach the top punishment tier.
