HAD IT with your BULLSHIT, Riot! You WILL do something about DCs!

OK, Riot. Party's over. I have fucking HAD IT with this.

Just lost another game because of 4v5 when our Ashe DC'd about 10 minutes in and never came back. We were the better team, we were pwning those sad sacks' asses, we even held them off to 40 minutes when we were down a man, but you can't realistically win a 4v5 against a team that isn't completely retarded (more to the point, nor should you HAVE TO) so we lost. And it was bullshit. And I lost another 15 fucking LP because you lazy bums have been developing this game for 6 goddamn years and in all that time haven't done jack fucking shit about afks and DCs ruining literally thousands of games, worldwide, every fucking day!

NO more excuses! NO more stalling! NO more "well it's a difficult problem and we're working on it". NO more "it's not as simple as-" bullshit. This is NOT FUCKING ROCKET SCIENCE, RIOT! If a team has to play more than 10 minutes of a game with a player disconnected and they lose, they get Loss Forgiven. Period. JUST. FUCKING. DO IT.

Dota 2 had ways to prevent players from being fucked by DCs when it launched. You've been developing this game longer than Dota 2, but you've done NOTHING. NOTHING AT ALL. As I said, considering how many games of LoL are played per day, literally THOUSANDS of games are being unfairly ruined by bullshit DCs and afks. It's been this way since the very beginning of League. That is SIX. MOTHERFUCKING. YEARS. I'd add more emphasis, but there's no more I can add on this forum software.

Over the years you've dribbled on endlessly about how much you care about your player base, how important it is to you that we get the best experience possible. I'm calling bullshit on every last word of it. You don't give a fuck about us. If you did, you'd do something about DCs ruining games. You don't do anything, so anything you say about caring is a 100% bullshit lie. Years back you implemented the Loss Forgiven feature for when you're having major server issues so you can panic-negate all losses whenever your servers are shitting themselves (regardless of whether or not any player on the losing team actually HAD any connection issues). That pretty much says it all: server issues are a problem on YOUR end, so Loss Forgiven is just to cover YOUR ass. DCs aren't YOUR fault, so in your mind they're not YOUR responsibility. Well allow me to disillusion you, Riot: everything that happens in this game is your responsibility. This is YOUR game, so YOU are responsible when a player decides he's had enough and he's just going to alt-F4 and screw his team and they suffer an unfair loss and LP penalty regardless of how well they're playing. You have an OBLIGATION to us to provide us with the fairest game experience possible, and every time we get unfairly screwed by circumstance, it's on YOUR head!

Now to preemptively address the inevitable rebuttals:

1. "Giving people Loss Forgiven for getting a DC is too open to abuse!" One, not very much: what, you think people are going to make sock puppet accounts to play with their friends SOLELY so they can DC from a losing game to prevent their friend from losing LP? Accounts that serially DC from games get BANNED, don't you know? Surely Riot can weed out the abusers quickly enough, can't they? Don't they have data analysts who look for patterns of misbehavior? Two, this is hardly a serious abuse case- yes, it prevents the losing team from losing LP, but it doesn't rob the winning team of anything, so it's hardly screwing anyone badly. It's a very minor advantage. Three, who fucking cares? DCs are ruining far, FAR more games daily than would be influenced by lamers trying to abuse the system.

2. "It's not as simple as that." Yes it fucking is. Every day Riot do nothing is another few thousand players getting fucked over by circumstances beyond their control. There are PROVEN answers to this problem, very simple ones. Riot aren't daunted by the difficulty of implementing an anti-DC system. They just can't be assed. Time for us to put the boot in.

3. "DCs all eventually balance out." Bullshit. DCs don't even all necessarily have the same severity- sometimes the jungler merely takes 10 minutes to connect and starts the game cripplingly behind, sometimes the support lags out and takes 5 minutes to reload, sometimes the ADC DCs early on and never comes back. I hope you're counting all these and measuring them precisely against each other, for every player in the world simultaneously to make SURE they're all balancing out for every single player, otherwise this point is completely and utterly moot.

4. "If you can't win a 4v5 you don't deserve to win." Shut the FUCK up. That's a retarded sentiment and you're a retard for saying it.

5. "If you like Dota 2's DC avoidance system so much, why don't you just go play that instead?" Shut the fuck up again. I hate Dota 2. I like LoL. Dota 2 is better than LoL in this solitary aspect. I want LoL to be a better game than it is and stop screwing us. Why are you so retarded that you need this explained to you?

So Riot, it's time to face the music. I have a simple yes/no question for you. Answer it.

Do you care about your player base at all?

If yes, you WILL do something about DCs ruining games. That is not a "maybe", that is not an "eventually", there is no "but", YOU WILL FUCKING DO IT.

If you don't, then you're lying liars who lie. You don't give a fuck. Because we're getting screwed every day while playing your game. And you do nothing.

Put your money where your mouth is. Get off your asses and do some very simple work. Spare us from the bullshit.

Please.
