Know what inting means before calling for reports

Exactly. Most of us don't care enough about ruining a random strangers day by "inting" in their eyes. What about our day? Our games? Of course we care about winning, so why the fuck would we try our best to give them kills?

I recommend reading the post instead of the title only.

Calling for reports is a bannable offense. You don't need to tell others to report people, 1 report from you is worth the same as 8 reports from everyone else in the game.

Classic boards, you get downvoted for telling the truth

If you ask me, it's because people don't question why things are happening in game, so even though you can go 0/5 through no fault of your own necessarily, you're apparently still "inting".

Yes. Part of the problem is that players have no map awareness or have the critical thinking to predict that the lane is going to get camped, so all they see is a death count and that is sad.

Yep. That is why I fullmute all every game now. I don't want to though. I wish it was like it was a few years ago where we didnt have the mute features and players actually made more of an effort to communicate properly with each other.

I'm never clear on whether "report weight" actually exists, but if it does, you may be doing yourself a disservice by reporting people based on KDA alone. I'm sure you're capable of accumulating a high death count in a low amount of time, too, even before you factor in things like lag, tilt, massive skill disparities, ridiculous camp, cheese, luck, etc.

I've duo'd bot lane with people your ELO and higher who will honestly state "we can fight this", charge in, and get deleted 5+ times in a row.

Sure, but they won't be banned if they werent intentionally doing it, so calling for a report then would not only be pointless but will annoy others

I once died 17 times in a victory. I was playing full AP Sona, so I was about as squishy as you can conceivably get in this game, and the other team wanted my ass HARD. Every team fight, I was soaking a ridiculous amount of ults, flashes, you name it. We eventually won due to punishing them with 2-5 deaths every time they killed me.

In retrospect, I should have purchased Zhonya's and baited them more effectively, but hey, I never claimed to be good at this game =P

Well that isn't really what I was saying. Obviously people can pretend to make bad plays or whatever, but to what end? You'd still lose the game and the only benefit is to end the game faster when you perceive it as "unwinnable". Anyway, it is difficult to detect whether somebody is pretending or not, so those players would probably get away with what they are doing. It's still not right to accuse someone of "inting" when they have no way of knowing/proving with certainty whether they did feed purposefully.

IDK why this is downvoted. We all know I could run around and shittily fight, and all I'd type is "OMG I'M JUST HAVING A BAD GAME" and be exonerated from my behavior.

Are we going to act as if people don't try and game the system? Because they do.

Then you're calling that incorrectly, because that isn't "inting" or "intentionally feeding" by definition. You're trying to use it as a shorter way of saying the situation you described, but they're clearly not the same thing. It's not just you though, lots of players do this. They use phrases that they see others use incorrectly, so they use it incorrectly too. For example, it is sadly quite common now for players to be called "feeders" only after 2-3 deaths, than it was a few seasons ago.

Okay. Let's just ignore the definition of "inting" and use it however we want. /s

I suppose it depends on the context of each game. It is better debating about whether someone for example should have saved a teammate say as a support instead of leaving them. That becomes a decision making conversation rather than a "is this person doing this so he should be banned" conversation.

I don't know what you're trying to argue for here. You think "inting", short for "intentionally feeding", means something other than what the words "intentionally" and "feeding" mean when put together. These are english words with their own definitions, so you can't pretend they mean something else to you.

The problem with your examples is that you don't give enough context. Your Ahri might not think she will die to a vayne with that score, she may be trying to outplay her... there are a number of scenarios that don't involve "inting". The morg one could be explained by simply forgetting to flash in the heat of the moment. Maybe you're looking at action on another part of the map to prepare. Maybe flash just came off cooldown as the binding hit.

Bottom line is players can't make up what inting means if its already been defined.

No, I'm saying that you should be absolutely certain the player is intentionally feeding before reporting.
