Being reported for not group fighting.

Most games where we're fighting strong synergy comps and I'm doing my very best but I can't prevent a 1% brand from attempting to kill the lux that I've already got secured. I get reported because of the mentality. "I lost my lane, REPORT THIS JUNGLE!" Why can't they understand the jungler has a LOT to do. Not just camp your lane until you're legendary and hold your hand through the rift. But that mentality doesn't exist in gold. I'm also pretty sure the skill level goes backwards and salt rises throughout rank.

tl;dr stop crying when you lost lane. YOU lost lane

don't worry too much about being reported.

people can report for anything, doesn't mean the report is a valid report. It takes multiple valid reports to get punished.

I have the same issue with supports. I play support a lot so I see a lot less supports doing stupid crap. But let me tell you, bad junglers in this current jungler meta ruin a ton of games. You're dealing with some PTSD for certain, but I judge a jungler by their ability to advance the cause.

You need to do as much or more than their jungler. And you should be taking towers in lanes, doesn't matter if the lane is winning or losing.

I'm a jungle main. As any jungle main on the boards will tell you, we get abused more than any other position/role in the game, period. Doesn't matter how well you play for most part, or how poorly your teammates play, you WILL get blamed/flamed.

Top lane feeding because they're outmatched or overextended repeatedly? You didn't gank enough.

Bot lane getting ganked by the hyper mobile midlane Talon? You should be camping bot.

Midlane absolutely shit on because he picked a Syndra into a Yasuo? That Yasuo got 6 ganks. I got 0. It's the jungler's fault.

These people bitch and moan because they either have never played jungle, or it's been so long that they have forgotten just how many responsibilities that junglers have. 3 lanes to assist when possible, 6 jungle camps with 2 pretty effective buffs to protect. 2 rift scuttlers that provide free vision. A dragon that gives team buffs every 6 min and WILL be contested. Rift Herald. Baron. Ganks. Counterganks.

To put it in perspective - outside of support which has a similar type of responsibility - the laners need to worry about trades and CS. Avoiding the occasional gank perhaps. Trying to push to get their tower. That's it.

Regular laners have no clue how difficult jungling can be, especially if you have more than 1 lane that is losing.
