Something I don't understand

Flaming happens in chat, so instead of a permanent ban, why not opt for a permanent mute? And don't give me the "communication is important" nonsense. You can still send pings and don't really have time to do anything else if you're focused. Do you see LCS players typing away, no they are too busy playing!

Because if you are enough of a jerk to get up to a permanent ban from just flaming, we don't want you around.

If a "jerk" such as an intentional feeder, feeds, he should be banned because there's no way to stop his behavior. But for flamers a mute is a much simpler fix!

No, see, that's not the point. The flamer could just STOP. If he doesn't stop after 3 times, what's the point? That person doesn't care enough about the rules or others to stop, so why have them at all?

Toxic player when chat restricted still find ways to harass players Ping spam, feeding,afk,not trying.... etc So a perma chat mute would in all likly hood, just result in a larger pool of feedering/afkers than just banning people for being dicks

Are you sure a person who is toxic in chat won't have toxic gameplay ? Refusing to help teammates , not helping with vision , stealing buffs and making selfish decisions ? I think not

Hmmm, that depends on the player.

Cooperating with the team on the map and in-game but cursing at them in chat makes zero sense

I don't know if it's been done before either.
