I'd have to say I'm more like you. I would say I get honored pretty much every game (maybe 4/5ths-5/6ths of my games), but most games it's just 1 (possibly 2) unless I was jungling or something and setting up some awesome ganks, or get an amazing save or steal of some sort.

That said, I probably average honoring someone once every other game. Some games it's my whole team if it was truly amazing and hard fought, and some of the time there just isn't anyone to honor. I really try not to honor people for doing what they should be doing anyways (warding as support, occasionally ganking as jungle, etc.) If someone does an amazing job at something, or shows some intelligence by getting good initiates without suiciding often then I will honor them.

It might sound stingy -and possibly a bit silly- but I'd rather have people actually work to get honored and deserve it instead of feeling entitled to it. I think it is about getting players to strive to be more a bit more decent to people and trying to work together. Giving honor when they do the bare minimum defeats that purpose. Maybe that is just how I see it.
