I Got Suspended Because I Was Trolled

I went Tristana top, my IGN is Asian. I got trolled by 8 people in a match of 10. My annoyance showed when the Cho'Gath got a gank at level 2 from Xin who hid in a bush after coming at level 2. Then the Cho'Gath ignores lane and sits in bush all the freaking time. This is where you usually go mid or bot then teleport back for your lane to balance the game. BUT my team is feeding the shit out of the enemy and no real opportunities appear. When MY team starts feeding then proceeds to flame me for "going Trist top as a troll" my annoyance is full blown out there. By the end of the game I'm 2/4 while they all have twice as much deaths not much kills and they fed my Cho'Gath who had in early game been ganked for at level 2 but still lost to me in early game. Xin Zhao comes at level 2 dashes in, smacks me, runs away, and hides in a bush until I pushed up getting minions then proceeds to come out and kill me when Cho is better off with silence and knock up. This is extremely annoying when it happens to you three times in a row. By then when your team flames you because they can't actually see what happens then talks shit... You know the feeling no doubt. When the game ends I get hit with multiple reports and am suspended for 14 days. I have served half the time now. Mind you this is norms draft. Even in rank games going top as Trist is not trolling, what is trolling is people who say you are then proceeds to int feed and be toxic to you. I'm posting this to have people reminded they are toxic as well and need to remember that. That along with Riot Games who says they discourage such behavior - they need to ramp up their efforts to not be toxic as well. Every "patch/update" makes the game more unresponsive so when I play and it's horrible game play and I die because of Riot I shouldn't be trolled by anyone because of that failure. And here's the coup de grace, Riot. When they troll me and report me. I shouldn't be the one suspended because my chat logs have actual context that supports the reason why I'm annoyed and I'm getting flamed. You also have no method to screen for and punish actual racist people or people who flame and troll. I'm a solo player and I do not support the toxicity from pre-made queues therefore when I get flamed and trolled for supporting players who are getting hammered what can Riot do? Out of 100 million players; who hasn't become toxic or discouraged because of this game? I have deleted the game many times because of trolls. I get it back because I have nothing better to do and I am familiar enough with the game that I can come right back in and play and not give a damn about the minor dumb things. I hope whoever reads this understands my pain of annoyance and become sympathetic to all the people who just want to enjoy a game. Know this I wasn't in a position where you can say I was predisposed to be toxic. I went from Silver 5 to Silver 4 from winning many games in a row after being in a slump because of horrible MMR matchups. And I was this close to returning back to rank to continue to go past Silver 3. But I took a break(the game where I got trolled,reported, and suspended) and now I am 2 weeks behind on what I set out to do. Great work Riot. Not toxic? I still remember the debacle from the Riot employee who was toxic.

You know the feeling no doubt.

Honestly I don't know the feeling. When people start flaming I mute them. Sure that doesn't fix the literal trolling that is going on, but I avoid all the flame with the push of a button.

I don't know that feeling either. I don't get annoyed and start acting out. I personally don't need to mute people because I can control myself and my emotions.

I focus more on what I can control and do to try and turn things around. I make mistakes and face check where I should not. But here's the difference between us - I don't get annoyed with the opposing player that killed me because they used the environment to their advantage, that's a shame on me. I should've warded there if I was that concerned. Or, I shouldn't have over stayed with low health.

i get annoyed with people and frustrated with myself, my teammates, and the enemy but i don't throw it back at them. I just ignore them and focus on the game rather than making everyone else uncomfortable. if someone is being horrible i tell them maybe to cut it out or just play but for the most part i stay quiet and report them in post game. no reason to make everything worse.
