Context Matters to Determine Punishments

You cannot simply punish people without context, if a person is performing poorly because of his/her skill level it is not punishable, if the person is actually going down every lane with 7 tears tp/ghost then it is punishable.

If a person uses the term gay in an unironic way like " oh the enemy jgler took my top side buff thats gay" that is not punishable, if the person is harassing someone "god vayne you suck %%%got go feed bot more" then that is punishable.

Every offense is not black and white it is a shade of grey and we need context of the situation to determine if the person was truly toxic or not.

If we punished players without context it would cause more damage to the community over the toxic players and drive people away from said gaming community. If you honestly think people deserve punishment for any of the examples I put out I suggest you reflect on your ideals and see how flawed they are. People that think context does not matter as a group become a serious threat to the community itself, for they are a silent minority that want to impose rules on the majority that punish people for what they deem "wrong" and it is up to everyone to stand vigilant in order to protect themselves as a community and as a individual .

there is no context in which being toxic to another player is ok

just because the other guy is toxic, that doesn't give you a free pass to respond in kind

unlike "fa g"i've never seen "gay" as a bad word that earned punishments for it's use

riot isn't interested in your opinion on what is right and what is wrong, on what you consider acceptable behaviour and what you consider as flaming. they have their own definitions. you can either abide by them or go play something else
