when will there be a solution to a 4v5 because of afk?

a guy on my team ragequits after 8 and I'm forced to eat a loss? Why have there been no efforts to do loss preventions? Why do I have to lose 20 lp or a promo match because of someone else's choice to toss the game?

I don't deserve that shit, and nobody else does either.

The people that afk or quit in the middle of the game should be outright banned for 2 weeks. You don't want to play? Fine, give them what they want. You'll see a dramatic decrease of afks.

If it's a legitimate dc from the ISP, the guilty party can get documentation from their ISP and send in a support ticket and get unbanned right away.

Tbh we dont have one simply because we havent found a way that isnt immediately abuseable to cheat the ladder.

Plus, not all ISP's are willing to give out documentation like this, let alone the fact that disconnecting from a server isnt logged.

I think its impossible. There isn't a way that cannot end up being abused.

How do you know someone doesn't have a legitimate reason as well. Such as a family emergency, someone showing up, etc. Too many factors, as much as it sucks.

Others have already said it, I'm not saying we should be ok with afks, but there isn't a realistic way to implement a system without it being abused.

There's no reasonable solution to the problem, but I think if they obviously rage quit or disconnected on purpose, then they should be permanently banned because that's worse than being toxic but people get banned for being toxic all the time.

There is no way to make a solution that improves the game and is fair to both teams, so yes, either you win the 4v5, or you lose. It doesnt affect you in the long run.
