Should it be a bannable offense to stall out games in normals to do missions?

Obviously i wouldn't do this in ranked, but in a normal game i wanted to finish 2 missions at the same time, and one of them was get elder drag execute, and since my team hard stomped early game i decided to afk farm jungle to stall for the 5th dragon for my team, and one player threatened to report me because i wanted to stall the game out so bad. Do you guys think that this should be punishable for normals? It kind of is riot's fault for releasing a mission that literally requires me to drag out a game till the 5th drag.

Coop vs Ai games count towards those missions in case you're ok with that game mode.

I wouldn't report you for it but I can see how it could be called griefing, gives the enemy team a chance to recover and all that. Probably not gonna get you banned though so long as you're not just afk in the jungle and watching your team die

You need to work with your team in team games, missions aside. Additionally, can't all missions be completed eventually by just playing? I have not seen an Elder even have a chance to spawn in my last 30 games, takes too long.

When considering the slew of things that SHOULD be bannable offenses, this is at the bottom of the list if it even makes it on the list. I think, in normals, no.

Last I checked, in normals, you get to play however you want to play, as long as you're not intentionally feeding. JG doesn't have to gank or get drags, support doesn't have to let ADC get CS or lane with them, etc. So in turn, no player has to push towers or directly contribute to taking down the nexus. Ranked games are the place to play if you are playing to win. Normals are the place to play however you want- and subsequently, however anyone else wants. As long as it's not inting.
