After a break of a month

Good to see Riot taking no action to improve the player behavior thing.

After basically not playing for more than a month (I only played one ranked game to avoid decay), I felt so baffled coming back to experience the same cancerous behavior I was facing before I stopped. Just finished an ARAM game, where a Xayah was intentionally AFK behind the towers, and then once it dropped, she moved back to the other one. Another waste of time game.

Before that, I played some URF, only to face AFKers because "they didn't get good champions". Let's not mention how many flamers there still are.

Good to see Riot not having improved AT ALL. Makes me wonder why I tried to play this game again.

EDIT: Just finished a ranked game, where my Kata mid went AFK at 5 minutes because she went 0/2. LUL

You're precisely one of the people that OP is complaining about, except you have been banned.

Did you mute and then report post-game everyone who engaged in these inappropriate behaviors?

Yes.

Then I got nothing. You did your part, I would try not to stress about it further.

It's not that. I want to have a good gaming experience and it seems like things haven't really changed.

I dunno, man. My personal experience probably differs from yours, but it's a lot easier to remember the bad times than the good times if you let it.

Maybe one in five games aren't so good, but I make an honest effort to make the four other games as best as I can possibly can. Banter with other players, crack a few jokes, congratulate teammates for good plays, etc etc. You can't always rely on other people to make the game fun, sometimes you have to make that effort too.

Sometimes, people are going to act like little shits. There's not much you can do about it. People in real life cut me off on the roadway, say rude things to me on occasion, and so on. All you can do is just do your best to not let it get to you, otherwise they win.

Honestly, almost any time I play solo, I have a bad experience. I recently started connecting with some friends that I never really played with, and I do have a good time playing as a 3 or 4 premade group.

As a side note, I got an IFS report after like 10 reports in one day. Well, it was satisfying.
