What is up with the sudden influx of "It's just a normal" trolls?

Recently I have been getting a LOT more games than at any time in the past where enemies or allies take literal troll picks or do troll stuff like bronze bravery and their excuse is "It's not a ranked, it's just a normals". Like that literally does not matter AT ALL to Riot or it's punishment system yet people keep throwing it around as if it has some validacy.

Honestly, at this point that particular excuse should be noted by the punishment system because so many people use it as their go-to excuse to flame people or try to explain why you should let them win on purpose (Such a big LMAO on this one)

...stuff like bronze bravery? Whats that? Just curious. Unfortunately, Riot enforces a very verrrryyyy loose meta. The chances of your pick being considered trolling by Riot are slim to none.

For me its more people use the "its just norms" or "just a game" to give a free pass to IGNORE THE TOWERS, and chase kills in a kda pissing contest (aka "I got more kills than u" competition)

so i treat it as such. Secondary. I still play. But if its "just a game" then people really dont care if the game is thrown, right?" People will repeatedly tell me "chill its just a game" when I suggest towers. But when they decide they want to end, suddenly they flip out at anyone who doesnt treat the game like the LCS world finals.

I you ever use "chill, its just norms" or "its just a game", then you dont get to complain when people TREAT IT AS SUCH.
