Player should not be punished for current AFK system

When a team member is AFK, other players on the team should not be punished for not wanting to play a one-sided game. The team that's missing a player(or more) should have the option of forfeiting instead of being forced to abide to Riot's current broken and unfair AFK system.

Why should we be punished for Riot's lack of AFK fixes? This problem has been existing for YEARS and there's still not a fix in sight in the near future. Instead, they prioritize on useless cosmetic features such as (unneeded)graphical overhauls such which only contributes to the stability of the game.

You DO know that there is no "prioritize" between graphics and server issues right? They are ENTIRELY unrelated. The people who work on graphics, champions, etc, are not the people who also work in the server room abd other parts of their network. They are SEPARATE JOBS.

Does that makes sense? Do you get it? You have no complaint in your second paragraph other than they haven't done it yet.

Uhm, they actually recently put in an attempt to fix it. Either you are ignorant on the topic you are discussing, or you are trolling. Either way, downvote and move on.

You are level 20. Nuff said.

I went AFK because there was someone on my team that was AFK to begin with, hence this post. You really need to learn to read and comprehend because you don't seem to be very good at it @SexyTaylorSwift.

There's a difference between AFKing and DCing from server issues. AFK is a choice, and entails either standing idle in base or doing absolutely nothing for your team, while DCing is either due to your internet connection along with your computer, or Rito's servers. People should be punished for AFK, DC's are a whole other topic.
