So, I should lose 16 LP for having 2 afks on my team? When is Riot gonna fix this.

When will it change? When will you guys implement a system to punish AFKers and leave the victims alone? It should work like Dodge where you only lose 3 LP and you don't lose MMR. Come on Riot. Please fix this. Please I'm begging you. It's unfair. Why should I be punished for having bad teams and AFKs. It's hard enough to carry a silver game.

Would you also like this to work the other way, where you don’t win LP is the enemy afks?

You still win the LP, i'm just saying the enemy shouldn't lose any LP.

But then there's an artificial LP increase, which is a problem.

First of all I don't know what you mean by artificial LP Increase. Secondly, The current system works this way. Winners get their LP if the game lasts more than 4 minutes. Losers still lose the game and their LP whether or not there is an AFK on their team.

Now my idea is to simply make it so That in the event of an AFK, the losing team only loses a couple of LP and doesn't lose any MMR. Only the AFKer loses more LP and MMR. The winning team gets the same amount for winning. (Which happens anyway)

Now somebody said that this is abusable, they can simply duo with someone and afk purposefully. I said no. Riot can put a system in place where if someone duos with someone who afk'd....they BOTH lose the same amount of LP.

Understand now?

It's still going to make LP increase overall. Think of it like a finite resource, when someone loses someone gains. If the amount isn't somewhat similar, everyone is going to rise over time. There's going to be a lot more gained LP than lost LP.

Decaying is how they get the LP that isn't accounted for back. If I win 20, and they lose 15, where's that 5? If I win 20, and they lose 5 or whatever you want because someone AFKed, there's 15 that disappears somewhere. That's a HUGE difference. If it didn't work like this it'd be way easier to climb and people would be higher than their skill level should be (which plenty already are right now)

Did you lose? Then yes. There is no "fix" to be had.

God I swear this community is stupid. Never in support of any change. Then you guys cry and whine when Riot Slams changes you don't want. Fuck y'all.

So...you refuse to actually respond to our valid points (such as, you know, artificial LP gains being a bad thing, and the sheer risk for abuse of your suggestion), and instead choose to insult us?

Gee I wonder why people aren't in favor of your suggestion.

Why shouldn't I insult y'all. I just made a post expressing my opinions, then y'all flood me with thumbs downs for it.

That's how voting works... If we agree we upvote, if we disagree we downvote. None of us said you aren't allowed to have the opinion but we don't agree and that's why we downvoted. I see this complaint all the time but that's literally the point of the system, and why you can mouse over to see upvotes and downvotes separate.
