I'm banned for typing when theres a mute button

Banned for 14 days for calling someone a noob, and telling my team that my support is trolling, stealing cs/afking for 2 minutes/not attacking inhib just watching. Like ya i was toxic, but if someone is trolling you, i feel like there's a legit reason to be tilted, theres no report option "trolling" so people can just go in games and troll, but you can't type or you'll get a 14 day banned, like somethings wrong here... Your banning system is broken. No game have i ever, i mean ever, been banned for typing, EVER. But this game for some reason decides to ban you over the smallest/ preventable things, don't like what i have to say? For those of you who don't know this all you have to do is hold down tab look for the speaker icon next there name and click mute. MAGIC, it's almost like a filter for things you don't want to see. Riot again decides to disappoint and lose its community.

The existence of the mute button is not an excuse for toxic behavior. The mute button acts similarly to a shield. I have it so I can protect myself from an attack, but that doesn't suddenly make it acceptable for you to be attacking me in the first place.

One guy muted = 20% of your team you can't communicate with. I prefer to play a game with a guy I can communicate with ... Higher chance to win.

Premise/title of thread: "I'm banned for typing when theres a mute button"

And I think on this premise alone, it is wrong.

Why?

Because it means you can do or say anything without any responsibility or consequences because somehow everything to watch out and care for is on the receiving end.

..............

That said, it's one thing to tell your teammates that they suck balls at the game, and being abusive and make people uncomfortable or even violated while doing it.
