Were players always this sensitive?

I only started about 4 months ago, league used to have a horrible wrap years ago for "toxicity" and honestly, toxicity bothers me a hell of a lot less than people crying you are flaming them when you ask them politely to stop feeding. example? Vlad support for whatever reason goes like 0-4 before ive even finished my first jungle clear with 0 backs, just to give you some perspective on the level of feed. I asked him to just stop feeding, MEANWHILE, his duo buddy (same clan tag) top lane, feeding just as hard. By me asking them to stop they turn it on me, because im "flaming" them, since when is wanting people to play to the best they actually can and WIN bad? Is it just my elo? does it get better? Its quite depressing really, they hide behind ToA to troll because unless they openly admit they are feeding you could just assume they arent a strong player. I just want games where people want to win and genuinely try, thats all i expect and thats what everyone deserves to que into.
