Justified AFKs

I think some AFK are justified...I don't like that RIOT makes you do the "I AGREE" thing after doing an AFK. It basically says "Never AFK". But, what about those times when it's justified to AFK?

I let my daughter die because I agreed to never AFK.

The lawsuit is pending.

considering I can't get into a loading screen after champion select on one account, yet the other one works perfectly fine. I've gotten lower priority queues on that account. It's obviously on my end though right? Says the same company that makes millions and can't afford to make servers anywhere but west coast. East coast gets the same ping to EuW as they do to a north american server. WP riot.

Considering most people don't have to drive their housemates to the ER that often, we should be just fine.

I don't me Real life emergencies. I mean simply in game facts. Trolling team mates etc. I'm talking about those REALLY REALLY bad games, the painful ones.

It's not like champ select is a crystal ball dude.

When you see your teammates already flaming each other because of picks, it kinda can be a crystal ball. And even if I get the worst game ever, I'm not allowed to leave, so i try my best until the very end like a man! Exceptions are rl emergencies, then ofc you'll leave, telling your teammates in a short why you left, and nothing will happen (as long as you do not have emergencies every 2 day)

Such as?

It would be hypocritical to not to say that I have AFKed.... once.... in 4.5 years of playing the game.

There was a mix up in champ select and we had two junglers me as Fiddle and Yi. I stand around in spawn for a minute asking my team over and over which lane I was in. eventually they said jungle.. so I waddled over late to begin Blue.. Which Yi smite stole/thought he was jungling suddenly since I hadn't made it to blue before he started it. nope nope nope not dealing with it.

People that Afk because thier team wont surrender or they fed 0-4 in 15 min thought they suck. If you are still in the game you can still win it... there have been some epic throws. Feeding in your lane is not reason to think the game is over you can be carried.

Nothings worse than an obvious loss though, when we have our tier 3 towers down and we haven't even touched there towers, we're getting rekt and there is just 1 or 2 guys saying "OH YEH WE CAN DO THIS GUYZ!!!1 IM OPTIMISTIC LELELE" then im going to afk, screw that.

Bunch of people gonna talk about how you need to keep playing a game even if your house is on fire.

Sometimes you have real life stuff to do, like a date comes up or a college party invite. No one's gonna keep playing league of no friends instead of something important.
