I think I have seen a thread where someone said that and they got punished for it. Maybe try replacing it with something a little more safer like "fml" or "dang". :)

As is said on just about every other "why am I banned?" or "I was banned unjustly" thread yes, telling someone to harm themselves is very bannable.

If you had no prior punishments it will get you a 14 day ban, and if you have some amount of punishment history you can jump right to a permaban.

EDIT: Wait, maybe? I wouldn't risk it. So used to seeing "KYS" I didn't recognize you were saying "KMS".

As long as your not verbally harassing or being negative to another player, your fine. Most of those rules are to prevent negative experiences towards other players.

Edit: He asked about Kill my self. As implying him, sorta like fml.

Probably not, but I wouldn't try it.

In general, casual talk about suicide is uncomfortable for many, and can be detrimental to the morale of your team. For at-risk teens, it can be triggering. I don't mean stereotypical easily-offended "triggering", I mean literally responsible for tangible and terrible pain upon others.

That's just a corner case, but plenty of folks still don't want to hear about it. We're trying to play a video game, not be reminded of mortality and tragedy and such.

Don't risk it. Riot is very sensitive about abbreviated death threats right now. Intention doesn't matter, don't use any phrases that could hurt someone's feelings or encourage a sensitive player to do anything dangerous.

If we can get banned for being self-toxic then I am screwed. I KMS and feed way too much.
