Is...Is role-playing Draven considered offensive?

While playing Draven in bots (I can't play Draven at all), I spent most of the game quoting Draven verbatim, role-playing him for fun. Literally no one said anything the entire match, but after I left the game, I got a notification saying I was reported for Offensive Language.

I know he's arrogant and all, but I was typing in third-person. I never even said "I", I just replaced it with "Draven".

Like, all I did was role-play Draven. No offensive language, nothing even outside of his quotes. No trolling, nothing like that.

Is that a bad thing? I honestly would've stopped if even one person told me to, but no one said one word the entire match. :\

I wouldn't worry. RP on.

They probably reported you for saying I instead of Draven, because they know Draven speaks in the 3rd person and were therefore making a mockery of the good name that is Draven!

Only Draven can be Draven no one else is allowed to be as good as Draven but Draven himself..

Sounds annoying to me. I don't report for that kinda crap i just mute, but most people who spam random shit in chat do it strictly to be obnoxious.

I love how Selflessteammate is playing Draven. Makes me laugh. As far as your question, I think you would be fine. Oh the irony. hahah

Doubt it would get you banned if you weren't actively being rude to anyone.

Well, the fact is, currently the report system is basically if someone reports you, you'll get a warning. It can be pretty worrying, but I don't think you need to be worried because you didn't do anything wrong.

Used to be when I played Rammus once or twice a game when I taunted I would paste in one of the French taunts from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Some people got the joke but then one game I told an Amumu his "mother was a hamster and his father smelt of elderberry." And he just went off. Like on a 2 minute tirade.

Haven't done it since. Decided it wasn't funny enough to deal with people who don't find it funny at all. I still quote Monty Python out loud when I taunt though.

this is probably just a guess, but if you're spending most of the game role-playing your champ and typing out all of his dialogue - you probably just annoyed people. Not so much offensive language, but most people just want their games to involve game related chat. I personally probably would have muted it :/ Granted it was a bot game, so i have no idea why somebody would be so uptight about it.
