LP Refunds for Troll/AFK Games

I am appalled by how Riot handles trolls and afkers in ranked. I just recently played two ranked games, both having a rage-quitting trolls. I lost around 40 LP because of this and there is no way to get it back. This is unfair to me and my teammates who actually tried to win and it is extremely surprising that there is no way for Riot to refund lost LP due to trolls even if you write a support email. I really think that if a player is reported in a game for AFK or Inting, Riot should review the game and possibly refund LP back to the losing team. What do you guys think?

That's just opening up the possibility of people gaming the system. Trolls and AFKers don't ultimately impact your LP because they as likely to happen to you as they are to happen with the people you're playing against. By definition, anything with a probability of 50% is statistically irrelevant. With time the free losses you get for having one of them on your team will be balanced out by the times the trolls and AFKers on the enemy team gave you free wins.

Riot is too lazy to review shit. Lol

It's the system that gives penalties and everything.

Only if the troll in question recieves a chat restriction, ban, etc. There'd have to be systems in place to keep the system from being abused. If a duo were playing if it looked like they were going to lose they could just take turns afking so that they wouldn't lose LP. As much as I'd like a system that protects me from the ridiculous amount of assholery this game can force you into, Riot needs to be careful about the systems they make and how players could potentially abuse them.

Okay so, riot has this "attempting to reconect" issue were you just getting disconected from the game, but the enemy team is stil in the game so they can just push and end and get a free win BECAUSE OF RIOT
