A slightly late reply. Not really a misunderstanding, rather than expecting a feedback:

"I have done everything!

Ult, shield, root, Q, shock wave,"

..and there you provided all that was needed. You're right then, they were just raging, not reasoning:

"WTF Karma, wait for KS?"

Makes no sense now. How were you supposed to ks if all your offensive abilities were on CD? With AA as a caster? A short-ranged ?

"Report Orianna, no help."

Once again, a nonsense. If your abilities were on CD. You were definitely trying to help.

"Fucking noob, useless trash."

Now this one imo looks reportable. Just negative emotions, no constructive criticism, direct attempt to dehumiliate another human..

Admittedly one could be still blamed for misplaying in case of your last two citations, but we don't have enough information to consider that.

I fully agree with Double Slap, especially the first post. One's supposed to adapt to the entire environment, foes and allies alike. Personally I don't recall if I ever muted someone though. Not really a refusal rather than a thick skin / concentration / discipline I believe?

Anyway, back to the " bar". Lemme unfold that formerly mentioned question about being helpful. When one wants to help in a fight, there are numerous questions one wants to answer:


 * Am I close enough to interfer in time? (range)


 * Do I have a useful ability available? (CD)


 * Do I have enough resources to use it?


 * Can I survive the risk?


 * Do I have enough cotrol over my character? (ping)

..

If answers to all those questions are 'yes', then clearly one's eligible to help. As you can see, own health is still a decisive factor, even for ranged champs (e.g. you don't want to continue fighting with with enemy  location unknown). Clearly your teammates will blame you more often whenever they answer the fourth question as 'yes' for you. Possibly even first and third one as well. But what makes'em wrong is that you cannot help much more if an answer to a single question is negative, ergo cooldowns. They can see only if your ult is available or not, and have to track your usage of abilities otherwise.

P.S.: Whenever I end up at full without taking damage too often, I try to position myself into slightly more risky positions (not suicidally more of course, just adaptively). Baiting enemy is also a part of teamplay. And it opens opportunities for those pesky, and  teammates so they don't have to eat it all during the dive.
