Last night I decided transfered from a bronze 3 eu account over the north america. i'd transfered awhile back to play with friends.

I won 5 games easily, because being in bronze 5 is kind of like being superman in a cage fight with someone with cerebral palsy.

I won games 1 - 5. I lost game 6 because I could not prevent the enemy team from killing the lesser members of my team and they snowballed as a result.

So I started to play league. Thus far, I am 5 - 1. I joined the pregame screen and the first thing I hear is, "We're feeding and there is nothing you're going to be able to do, ggwp sur at 20 brahs." The other duo member said the same thing. So I dodged, it didn't seem like a fun game. So I lost my series and went down to 71 LP and it gave me a 20 minute late.

By some terrible stroke of luck I joined a game today and 2 of the people in my lobby started to argue about which race was the master race (white or black), and they were cussing each other out. Soooo now with a 5-1 record I have 40 something lp, and I'm waiting 30 minutes to play....

I think there should be special rules from the lower bronze brackets for que dodging. A little leniency could go a long way.

Dodging is fine you still keep mmr so you will see increased lp if you win so it won't be that hard to make up lost lp.

Dodging is not something Riot want's to support. Instead you should be taking screenshots of these people and making support tickets to report them for their behavior.

In the end what would you rather want, lower penalties for dodging or fewer reasons to dodge? I think you can see why Riot takes the stance they do.
