Reported for Thanking Feeder in Enemy Team

In the past week, I got reported for harassment three times by the enemy team. To be perfectly honest, I am no where good in this game. Is it wrong to thank the enemy team for feeding me? It's not my fault they gave me an opportunity to kill them. If the opportunity came, I'm pretty sure anyone of you guys would take it. They want to punish me because they're carrying my lane. It's not like I trash talked like "GG Noob" or "Suck It". I just say like "Please carry me (Insert enemy champion) cause I suck at this game :(" or "Please carry my team" when I kill them. I'm pretty sure that isn't harassment. I am acknowledging that I suck at this game and that I can't win without their help.

Yes its wrong and you should know this. You are being rude and very inconsiderate. Thats like saying i got robbed for 100 bucks and the robber gave the money to his girlfriend and she looks at you and says thank you for getting rob. Its not her fault you got rob but she thanked you anyways.

In other words: You can't win unless they're bad. The implied meaning is the problem here. You are essentially saying "thanks for being so bad" or, if you prefer: "thanks for being even worse than me", which at the very least sounds extremely condecending; even if you're being sincere and you actually don't mean it this way.

This is League of Legends, not League of Tea Party.

I was thinking more in the lines of a sport like football. A scenario like opposing team intercepts the football. The opposing player who intercepts the ball tells the quarterback that the interception was only possible cause he messed up the throw. Doesn't sound like there was harassment involved. I didn't cyber bully or curse out the enemy team in anyway.

Nah actually that's perfectly normal.

Chance sometimes comes in many different forms in this game. However you do need to be considerate towards the enemy team. Cause you know what goes around comes around. Especially with this system. Get a feeder on the enemy team eventually you will get one on your team. And it will balance out trust me.
