So I posted this few months ago when I got punished even though it wasnt my fault at all so the thing is I queued up for a game my internet connection was fine everything was fine when the match was found I wanted to click yes but I couldnt click it I did this 4-5 times and got a 10 min ban for declining too many games. The problem is any normal developer would apologize and NOT punish you but ofc Riot punishes YOU for THEIR mistakes. This happend again few weeks ago but I didnt want to make a thread about it since the first one got no attention at all but now I got kicked out of a game 4 times without a bug splat report or anything and I lost a game because of it I didnt get any punishments but I do fear a temp ban or a 5 games 30 mins ban if it happens again. And thats the poblem instead of a apology I need to fear a ban?

I would repair your client. I don't think it's a bug, since you're the isolated incident. You can always check the Patch Notes, where they list a lot of bug fixes.

The problem is that this isn't as widespread as you think. I have not had a single issue like what you described and I first started playing in Season 1. If I handed out 60 million free microwaves and a small handful of people said that they needed to push the "Start" button several times before it began to cook I wouldn't notice/care.

Yes I understand that here this is the internet and a game and not a microwave, but it is still a completely 100% free service that they are providing. The reason there is a punishment set up is because if there wasn't then people would be able to easily hijack the game by continuously queuing up and then declining. This might not seem like a huge problem in Silver but when you get higher and the queues can already be pretty long it is entirely possible for one person to make it take 2x as long or more to find a game.
