I don't deserve to get punished for leaving a game because i was fucking losing connection. I rejoin and finish the game and still get penalized... what kind of horse SHIT is this? fix your shit riot and maybe you won't have this many pissed off players like me.

Doesn't really matter if you came back, you are still putting your teams at a huge disadvantage.

It's rarely an issue on Riot's end. If you can't figure out what's causing a connection issue and fix it, please post on the Help & Support board and they will assist you. Even if it isn't on your end, you should do this to bring the problem to their attention so it can be fixed.

Doesn't matter if you lost connection or not, you still left the game. Your teammates will still be angry, and you'll still be set at a disadvantage. Dont expect riot to have mercy on you for losing connection. Honestly, the punishment for leaving the game should be even worse. You're still ruining the experience for the other 4 players on your team. This applies especially in ranked, where everyone is tryharding. The shit that will set them on tilt is if someone leaves the game for any reason.

Yes you do and the penalty should be greater for leaving.

Leaver buster is just to make people not want to quit so they can play ur game more. what if something truly bad happens in real life then u cant quit, what do you do? In this case u continue on playing a fucking video game, fuck ur leaver buster system

Lol @ everyone saying i deserve it... DID you NOT read my post? I am very flustered by the fact i still got a 20 MIN penalty even AFTER i REJOINED the game. if they can code this game, they should be able to code a function that understands when i rejoin the game within 2 minutes and FINISH the game.

If you have something new to add to this discussion, then you can post here again. That being said, this post is over a year old. If you're going to complain about the leaver-buster system again in a similar fashion, it's best to just make a new discussion. As such, I am locking this thread.
