Don't flame your teammates. You might be doing poorly, they might be doing poorly, you might be losing, but don't flame your teammates. Be nice.

Play your best and don't leave the game even when it looks hopeless, you take away many chances of "a come back" by doing so, and it isn't nice.

Don't join queue if you aren't sure you can commit 40+ minutes to a game. Excessive leaving can also end up weighing against you towards punishments.

By and large, the people who get banned don't think their behavior is bad, and/or don't think Riot should punish them for it.

The real trick is more like "don't talk at all." Tilt and the like is a psychological thing, not just people being toxic, and Rito considers calling someone out on their trolling "flaming."

I need more of this in my games. Add me please, it would be an honor to play alongside anyone with this type of attitude.

Simple.

Don't talk to them.

Because people talk with people

And Bots aren't people.

Especially malfunctioning ones.

Just give them a one star rating after the game if they're not working as intended.

You are absolutely right. However is it possible, to not flame in some circumstances?

Like seriously now 3 days ago i went duo with a friend of mines. And the games were absolutely horrible (quality wise). I had 2 or 3 games in line (im not sure how to phrase that in english) where my junglers literally ignored my lane.

The first that comes to my mind is the garen (me) vs illaoi,top. I leashed his red and tanked for him. I came to lane with 3/4 of my hp. I ended up falling behind in exp and gold because apparantly illaoi with w at 1 lvl is pure cancer. She pushed throughout the whole laning phase and twitch didnt gank even once. I asked him (kindly ofc, until he outright ignored me) to come and help me. He didnt come.

Another i remember was with a fizz vs orianna. Said orianna had also barrier so me killing her solo would be difficult. I asked my jungler kayn to gank me because orianna was pushing trying to poke me, but he never did. I had fallen so behind that after 6 i couldnt kill her even if i landed my ulti from long range.

There was also another game where i was i think fizz vs ahri. I asked my jungler kha to gank her before she hits 6 and becomes a pain in the arse to gank. Spoiler alert...... he ganked! 10 seconds after ahri hit lvl 6. I used my ulti to maybe force hers, and i did. Still she had 2 more dashes to avoid kha (lvl 5 i think). Fast forward some mins ahead and she bullies me hard and i have 0 ganks, i told him to come and gank her since i can burn her ulti. But he didnt respond or even pay attention to my requests. I ended up abandoning my lane (i couldnt farm under turret without losing 45%+ of my hp) and just went to roam. Needless to say we lost and my team even blamed me xD.

Oh yeah my favourite. I had kog maw jungle, in ranked. Where he didnt gank anyone and served as a gold sack for the enemy.

Anyway my comment devolved in a rant, but my point is that riot really doesnt do anything to help you avoid flaming. They dont try to correct the root of the problem because they deem it "impossible" which really is not. It can take time and resources but its definitely not impossible.

Edit: Oke i think i was a bit misunderstood. I dont want to support flaming. I just wanted to give insight as to why flaming is a thing. And why "holding back" sometimes it just doesnt work.

Being nice leads you nowhere.

And I'd pick an honest cynical bastard over a nice hypocrite any day.

100% True. I wish I could remember his summoner name but when i was coming back to the game I was getting completely destroyed throughout the game by the enemy Zed. I was playing LB. Think I went something like 2-14 and most of those deaths were from him. After the game he friend requested me and invited me to play some custom 1v1 matches with him to show me how to play that lane better. Did I feed? Yes. Did my team mates flame me and report me for Inting? Yes. Did I learn something because someone noticed me legitimately struggling and wanted to help? YES. I am not saying players need to go out of their way to coach each other every time they see someone else having a bad game, but advice how are bad players supposed to get better if they don't know what they don't know. Not everyone is able to see the "cause and effect" in trades or fights that end in a loss for them. Many players simply don't know what to pay attention to and what to look out for in a lot of situations. Until I got help from other players the thought of tracking my opponents spell cooldowns never even occured to me much less denying vision, following their build path and having a solid base understanding of champions base damage+items. This game is not like conventional sports where kids grow up with formal coaching through PeeWee, little league JV and Varsity. Everything is pretty much self taught which will almost always leave some sort of gap in game knowledge, reasonion, awareness and decision making. Be patient and try to actually help FIX the problem you see if you are able. Otherwise worry about your own game.
