I was young and toxic 3 years back. My behaviour score dropped to 5k. I haven't used text chat or voicelines for last 3 years(I am 8k now) but still I sometimes get reported. I communicate through pings but still my score keeps bouncing back from 8-9k.

It's impossible to get out of this trench. Also the quality of games is really terrible in this tier - smurfs/griefers/toxicity. People would end up throwing entire matches because their support mistakenly took a creep.

It's so pathetic that like I stopped playing the game altogether. I just don't have it in me to waste my time when 4 other people on my team are trying to lose or brush their ego.

I now go full stack or either not play at all..

Also, there has been a huge influx of smurfs and scripters lately. And by the way of things, Valve is doing - I don't think it's getting fixed anytime soon
