I got a low priority que for a game that was literally unplayable (lag and disconnecting)

I just got done playing a terrible game with my friend. Both teams where fluctuating between low ping to over a thousand ping. We both got disconnected multiple times and i wasn't even able to reconnect until 30 mins in... Hell when i finally did reconnect, the game instantly kicked me out lol. I was able to reconnect 8 mins later but the problems still occurred. It wasn't just me and my pal, it was everybody in the game lagging tremendously bad. Somehow we won that game...

The problem is that i got an afk penalty for disconnecting multiple times but it wasn't my fault! The connection was severely unstable so i probably only got about 25 mins in that game anyway. So riot can you please revoke my afk penalty?

You dont get low priority queue from 1 game. Stop leaving and/or playing on a tin can + string internet connection.

I mean, sure, not from one game. However, it seems that it doesn't depend on frequency, just amount. A few games ago, played ranked and had to leave because my girlfriend was in an accident, and they gave me leaverbuster, despite the fact I hadn't played much in over 5 months, and as such didn't really have time to stack up games. Not intended to start hostility, just wanted to point out where your statement was wrong to prevent confusion, at least in my own personal experience.

=============================================================================================================== Now on the reason I clicked this thread in the first place, someone has already posted an instance of the error in report a bug, and it would be appreciated if you would upvote this so we can get more attention, as I experienced the same and it seems somewhat common, would like a Riot response.
