Client Accept Screen Bug

Recently I have been incurring a bug whereby I accept the game, see in the background that I have joined the lobby and I can even hear the champions that my teammates are selecting before the banning starts however my client is locked out by the accept screen. The only way to get passed it is closing the client and thus dodging and suffering a dodge penalty. It's kind of annoying.

Apparently this has been a reoccurring issue as it comes and goes with patches and updates. I would hope by now that someone would have done a root cause analysis but I guess that's too much to hope for.

Any idea on when this will be fixed? I think there are a lot of issues with the current client itself , it may be worth hiring some interns and telling them to go through and flag issues inside the client framework which are causing the issues and then rank them in a House of Quality chart.

I'm not opposed to paying a small annual fee to Riot to have a better client. This could get messy with the free to play environment however I think most league players would be okay with like a $10 / annual fee to have a bugles client. Maybe it could be a requirement to play ranked? If you want to play ranked to need the gold membership client which is $10 / year or $1 / month.
