You sitting in base does not stop harassment. It's as petty as what they're doing, and it's stupid. You're wasting your own time at that point.

My story: A game of dominion. Guy says he wants bot lane as Teemo. He sucks. I tell him he sucks and he needs to let me handle the lane. He then sits in base the rest of the match because he didn't like how rude I was. Now he's an *******, because he got mad, folded his arms, and started pouting in base, making it very likely others are punished because of something I did. You did the same thing. You ARE an *******, and trying to justify you being one because others were as well is childish and stupid.

Your story is no better. You're mad because someone called you out. You could've worded it much better than you did. Saying "You Suck" never helps anyone. Read guides on how to raise ELO. Guides tell you to be nice and encourage your allies, because it makes them play better. This is a pretty obvious fact, that people play better when they are happy. You could've said "Teemo, Please let me handle bottom. I'm a better counter to *whoever it doesnt matter*, so its better if Im there." Instead, you were just rude and insulted him, You are in the wrong no matter what way you look at it. You violated the code first.

The point is my violation doesn't make his okay, and them being jerks to you doesn't make what you did any better, either.

I believe my point, in the end, is that if you're acting no better than them, then don't come to the forums to complain about it.

I came here to start a discussion, not a complaint. I don't know if you can't see that.

I love how all of these people are trying to act like saints. "I would never do that". "You should just stick it out until the end and vent after the game". You people are a bunch of hypocrites. We all know that the vast majority of this sh*t hole community would probably do that same and more. I know for **** sure that if I'm getting raged at by my teammates for nothing that I'm **** sure not doing anything to net them a win. Suck it.
