The Raging problem

I have been playing league since season 3. I can say with out a question, 2020 season is the most toxic it has ever been. It saddens me to say IM GETTING USED TO TEAM MEMBERS AFKING. I actually think i'm having a really good game if i don't have more than two team members inting. I have recently had a game where a team member called multiple people the "n" word and then afked, its been over a week with no ban notification..... I am really ashamed as a member of this community that is growing ever so toxic. not only are people hard inting and cussing out their teammates only because they didnt pick a tank or an all ad team ruining the ranked experience but it further subjectifying ranked as a "joke". If Riot Games Dosn't care about the growing toxicity problem, then how can they say they care about player experience? I know Personally i have a minimum of 3 afks a day, this dosn't count the games where i have teammates running it up mid. My Question is what is Riot Going to do to fix the negativity issues? Is the cost of satisfying the angry really making you more money than the new people it drives away?

That is a shocking number of bad luck you are having. Just out of curiosity, can you post 9 match histories spanning 3 consecutive days where you have an afk in each of them? You said minimum so it shouldn't be that hard to dig out right? How many games you play per day?

People are toxic because this game is fuckin frustrating. 90% of games are decided in the first 10 minutes. That shit is seriously not fun. So when we have some asshole going 0-4 in the first 7 minutes, of course people are going to be pissed. That feeder just decided the game before it even really started.

They cant do anything. Its a societal/anonymity issue. Maybe if your logs were sent in emails to every family member and automatically posted on all your social media accounts, but of course that is unrealistic. Nothing will stop people from doing these things unless it is extreme. I would say something about parents needing to be the ones to monitor their kids behavior, but obviously adults do it too.
