Mute is to stop further damage. Reporting and punishing for toxicity is to prevent future damage.

It's because while you can mute to temporarily solve the problem, reports are a means to permanently solve the problem. Welcome to boards.

Riot doesn't make basically any money off banned accounts -- if that was a goal of theirs, they would probably have much stricter banning policies, and many more "starter pack" deals to get new accounts back in by spending money. This theory is just a conspiracy theory.

Reporting someone for making your game experience unpleasant and unenjoyable isn't always being sensitive -- I'm rarely OFFENDED, for example, but I still don't want to spend my leisure time around complete assholes who wish to belittle my play or my person for thirty minutes straight. So yeah -- if you can't be a decent, half-friendly person for 20-30 minutes? I'd rather you not be part of my gaming community, so that when I want to relax with a game of League I can play with people who both want to play the game AND want everyone to have fun doing so.
