I'd say that I would have to. I do not want another person dealing with that kind of person, so I feel it is my personal responsibility as a League player to report behavior that breaks the Summoner's Code. Unfortunately, I have had to report in every single game as a result of that, with the verbal abuse being the most common thing and Leaving/AFK being the second most common thing.
Most of the time, it isn't even me who is in there. I just observe and stay quiet, while the my teammates end up trying to go for each others' throats. The times I do end up participating in it, it's usually brief and quick, and I mute them after they continue to verbally abuse me rather than play the game.
Are you really placing the blame on me for the behavior of other players in this game? I report what I observe, and if it ends up with me being on the receiving end, I always end up muting and reporting in the game afterwards. Again, I stick with my point: If I have to report at least one person in every single one of my games for verbal abuse, there is something definitely wrong. And when I mean verbal abuse, I mean stuff like this:
- Racism
- Homophobia
- Attacks on the person (e.g. "you're a fucking dumbass" being the most common attack I see)
- And on rare occasion: death threats
The top 3 on that list happen very frequently from what I have seen, and I always report those kinds of people. Do I start it? If I do a bad play, a simple criticism would suffice rather than "you're a fucking dumbass kill yourself" type of comment being put out on the chat. Other times? It's just a downward spiral from there.
