Harrassment. (Not sexual.)

Harrass is a huge part of LoL, its done from early to end game and by all roles in different forms, i'll split it into a few categories and give a short overview.
Harrassment is when you want to disrupt / hurt the enemy, wanting to kill them is something different, which usually stems from good harrass, if you get a good engage on harrass, going all-in for the kill is common.
1) Carries (ADC / Mid / Top)
2) Jungler.
3) Support.
4) After Lane-Phase
1) Carries
So carries have a couple rules when they are going to harrass and is pretty easy to follow.
1) Will i go even or come out ahead.
2) Will he lose CS?
3) Will I lose CS?
Will you do equal or more damage to your opponent then what he will do to you? Including actual damage and CS loss. Its a simple thing to follow.
For example - You engage toplane and deal 20% hp and take 15% hp damage yourself. You lose 3 CS and they lose 5. That is a good harrass / trade.
Another example is choosing to auto attack caitlyn as ezreal bot, you hit him with 1 skill and an AA (Auto attack), the support stuns you and you take 2 AA's and caitlyns Q. Bad trade.
Jungler
A junglers harrass is usually just coming into lane and forcing the enemy to back off. If a lane is struggling just walking into lane and hanging around (like sitting in a brush and making sure they know your there) can give the lane enough time to recover and catch up / get ahead on CS.
Try not to camp the lane too much as the longer you sit there, the further you get behind yourself. 15-20 seconds of presence is often enough if your not planning to gank.
Support
Supports focus on harrass, they have nothing to do early game other then harrass and ward. A supports harrass will be on disrupting the enemy ADC, making them lose CS and opening them up to harrass from your ADC. They can do this by just walking around looking angry (Leona / Alistar) making the ADC back off and lose a CS or getting aggressive and letting the ADC poke them (A taric stun.)
If your getting aggressive its important to ask yourself if your ADC is in the position to take advantage of it, just like when you go all-in for a kill. Ask yourself this.
1)Are they in range to take a potshot?
2)Are either of you low enough to have it turned around on you if they decide to fight.
Harrass "Presence" in lane is just that, make yourself known. As a leona i like to walk around throwing random E's at the ADC when they are about to take a last hit forcing them to back off and lose it. This is lane presence. Often just walking up to them can make them run scared, because they fear what you COULD do.
A support AFK in brush is a bad support. Yes, even a soraka.
4) After lane phase
Once laning phase is over, harrassment takes on two forms - Pushing and Poke.
Poke - Poke is just that, when your in that 5v5 mid situation where your all dancing around taking potshots at eachother, those potshots are poke. Being able to damage the enemy before a fight so you have an innate advantage when it happens.
Firing off long range skills / aoe's / Auto attacks is what sums up poke, doing damage before the fight happens.
Pushing - Pushing is difficult to explain, it can be used for and against a team so i'll explain both
Pushing advantage - If the enemy team is all focused on pushing bot. 1/2 players of your team could go and push top lane while the others defend, its infinitely harder for their team to engage you under a tower while your team free-pushes the other lane and gets towers / CS while the enemy are being useless elsewhere.
Pushing Disadvantage - 1-2 members of your team are pushing botlane. The enemy see's this and rushes to baron and starts it. You cant react fast enough because 1-2 members are out of place and you'll be fighting at a disadvantage so you either take a bad fight knowing you'll lose or you give them a free baron. (This works for dragon too.)
Thats all im confident enough to tell you, for fear of typing pure bullshit thats wrong.
