I'm kinda on the fence. There are games where I want to end the pubstomping being done to me immediately, and there are games where I want to try til the bitter end. A lot depends on your team and what's going on. When I tank, if people repeatedly refuse to fight when I initiate team fights, or repeatedly wander off to lane while we're trying to do that, I tend to want to just end the game. It's not going to be something we can come back from when I die immediately to 5 people every time, and my team is busy doing other things. That doesn't mean I'll afk if the surrender vote fails or whatever, but I'll keep on voting for it til it either goes through, or the other team wins. If we're all doing well, but the other team is just better composition, or better team work, or better players, I usually want to fight it out til the end. I don't mind losing honorably, I just hate to lose because 1 or 2 of my team mates aren't doing anything/fooling around. I don't think you need to take things too seriously, but if you're just going to play to troll, I'd rather play with some people who actually can have fun and want to win.
@Greygor: Maokai is probably being banned right now because of the glitch we were discussing earlier.
Edit: As an example, I was just playing a game as Amumu, we had at least 5 team fights where one person was still laning or off in the jungle. I repeatedly told said people to stop doing that and join in for the team fights. It did not turn out well at all, and so once we hit a certain point, I just kept on doing surrender votes when I could. I kept trying to win, but I knew things weren't going to change after each of those team fights failed so hard.
