i feel that the ban is a little to harsh i was trying to explain something to a team ate about a meta and missed my pick timed out and got a 15 min ban probably the second time in 5 or 6 months this has happened and got a 15 min ban for it so my buddy i was playing with had to wait as well its a simple mistake that has a ridiculous punishment it should be maybe if you do it once a month or even once every 2 months doing it so that it is always a ban is way to far there needs to be some kind of understanding for simple mistakes. i do not see how riot can justify this case in any way shape or form.

It's not a ban on your account; it prevents you from queuing again for 15 minutes. It was implemented to stop players from queuing, dodging, and requeuing repeatedly without an issue until they were officially punished and to discourage dodgers in general.

The vote is for your title or your content? Its a bit confusing. "ban on timeout in character select" Or "i feel that the ban is a little to harsh i was trying to explain something......"

I think a 15min delay to queue up is ok. I get that penalty, too when I want to dodge things like a shaco top or something completely weird. I wouldn't mind if it prevents people who would keep dodging to get the right match every time.
