Players get to grief without punishment.

People can just afk farm jungle and never help team, and grief games while never getting punished. I got chat restricted for 2 games where the mid went afk in one and gave up and the other our adc started to farm our jung after saying "im not going to try to win". I played my best to win these games but im the one that got punished for not saying anything worse than "This player is toxic and afk farming to grief us, gg please report".

Broken system

Yep. Griefers rarely get caught and the system punishes the people that express anger toward the griefers; terrible system

You did not get punished for that one line alone. Period.

What did your chat logs say?

It's always stressful when other players aren't playing to our expectations or picking champions that fit our ideal team comp, or ideal strategies. There's a lot of ways to push advantages and still play to win. But, if others are intent on making the game a negative experience, then you can either report them in the post game or attempt to defuse the situation in an appropriate way. I usually try "Let's just focus on the game please." If they're not willing to do just that, then they aren't going to respond positively to any other statements.

If you were punished, you were doing something more than 1 line of "...please report." It only takes 1 report (2nd Bullet point under "Things to avoid": https://support.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/articles/201752884#h2q1) to trigger a review of someone's game.

While calling for reports is negative, they generally are not the sole reason for getting a punishment, but are a part of a more consistent negative comms in a game. It's also useless, as it only takes 1 person reporting to trigger a review.

Yeah it is unfortunate how they say "okay gg im not even to try to win" then they proceed to throw and dont get punished. But I got punished for calling him out for griefing and how he should play cause it was winnable.

I get that it's frustrating when players either give up or say they'll give up, but that's not a reason to be negative back.

This is pretty mild, even for a chat restriction, but there are still negative aspects of it, mainly focusing on and belittling one player in particular:

dAsKiLzZ: i think he left cause the toxic feeding ezreal dAsKiLzZ: hes trolling i guess dAsKiLzZ: actually winnable if ezreal wasnt throwing dAsKiLzZ: lmfao dAsKiLzZ: afk mid (talking about ez being afk) dAsKiLzZ: feeding dAsKiLzZ: troll buildiong dAsKiLzZ: not helping team dAsKiLzZ: being toxic dAsKiLzZ: "im not gonna play" dAsKiLzZ: said ez dAsKiLzZ: 3v5 game [All]dAsKiLzZ: report ezreal ty

I think it was helpful telling your team to stop using all-chat and to just play, but if they're still being negative after that, it's probably best to just mute them.
