League players have gone soft

I was recently chat banned for probably one of the most ridiculously weak cases of "Verbal Abuse".

It basically started off with me playing with a typical toxic teammate who had to pass the blame to anybody, and everybody, every time they died. I basically told him to stop talking and just play the game, to which he got mad salty, and basically just spammed chat with typical annoying 12 year old banter.

I basically in a not so entirely nice way told him to get lost, before muting him and finishing the game.

Afterwards I received a message that I had been reported and was receiving a chat ban. I personally don't feel the need to report people for "Verbal Harassment" because come on guys, its a video game. If you're really that offended by what some Keyboard Warrior tells you on the internet it's not that hard to mute them/ignore the chat or literally just not get offended by what some random kid on the internet tells you.

I don't understand why Riot allows you to toggle the chat filter on and off if they're going to hand out a ban just for swearing. Like, if you're that offended by it just leave your chat filter on.

Sorry for the rant but I think that it's just ridiculous that the community can be controlled this much by people who find any reason to get offended by something and I feel like there should be more reasoning behind chat bans rather than just being reported by some salty player.
