"You can't control other people's tempers, but you can keep a cool head"

This is one of the loading screen tips, and it has two meanings. The first undoubtedly is that you should try your best to stay calm when things aren't going well. But the second is that you should be mature enough to understand no one is attacking you when they aren't as calm.

The report system shouldn't be used to steal paid content from people who use the chat function to vent frustration. You aren't keeping a cool head if you're so angered/upset by some random stranger's comment that you're bad at your champion that you can't own up to your performance, and report them out of spite because the automated system doesn't care about what's right.

You can keep a cool head, so don't act it isn't your job to use the mute button when you can't handle player vs player interactions.

First, it's not stealing. You pay for a license to access the content with the understanding that your behavior may lose you said access.

Second of all, it is not venting when you take your frustrations out on others. Then it becomes abuse. If you wanna vent, do so in a way that doesn't affect the other 9 players in a game.

People do however. That's why people shouldn't be playing if what they're doing goes against the ToS.

I think you should still report them, if they're going around being toxic you wouldn't want other people to tolerate that. And I agree with you, keep a cool head. If someone just says one toxic thing and keeps quiet the rest of the game, I think you should ignore them and go on with your life.
