The proper way to act when you've been blessed by going against a 4 man team

This is probably just a dumb rant no one asked for and is probs not gonna read. But this just happened to me, so maybe this could be a slightly necessary reminder:

  1. You're 95% going to win. The 5% is if one person on your team trolls or is just not doing so hot that game. Grouping 5 and sitting in bushes waiting for us just to kill us isn't valiant. It's not fun for us, nor should it be for you. Please just end the game.

  2. If you are bragging in all chat about how bad we are... please don't. Sure that 5 man gank bot lane went well. Us 2 at bot lane died, we're bad, etc. But BMing in all chat is just... Would you want to be called bad just cause you don't have a 5th person to help manage the game?

  3. Just think: if I had been the 4 man team, how would I want the other team to act. I'm not asking you throw for us, I'm just saying dignity when ahead is admirable. Ending quickly, not spamming crap, etc. It makes the 4v5 feel like they didn't completely waste 25 minutes of their time.

(I feel like riot should have implemented something for this by now. And also: if it's a normal game, the above is even worse, because those in normals just are playing to have fun, not to diehard win. So being BM and toying with us, not ending and just waiting in bushes.... it's just not sportsmanlike).

TLDR: Don't give 4v5 players a hard time.

If they implemented something to prevent elo loss then it would just be abused, people close game before nexus is killed and woo they lose no elo.
