On Leaverbuster

Alright, so I'm already pretty displeased at the current leaver system as a whole, but I don't see any direct way to resolve it. Here are some current questions I have, however. First, I just want to ask, how does the leaver system accomplish its goal? For example, why does Riot think that making those who intentionally leave(which is who this system targets, I assume) wait twenty minutes will in any way help the problem? Second, really, who here has actually known people who intentionally leave? I know that I personally have only intentionally left once before, while the rest of the time I lag the fuck out. Why are we making people wait twenty minutes for no reason, which clearly doesn't solve any problem of wifi or trolls?

I don't see a solution to these problems however, so I have a proposal that solves some. Can we make it so that if there have been many observed games with no leave, you can improve your leaver system to only give you like 15 minutes instead of twenty next time? This would lessen the severity of the unreasonable punishment for undeserving people. I'm not sure if this is in system right now, but I have not experienced it.

Tl;DR: Leaver system sucks dick, so can we lessen the severity of it for some people who have observed improvement?

The leaver system already does lessen the severity of people who show improvement.

Leave #1 = 5 minutes Leave #2 = 15 minutes Leave #3 = 3 separate 20 minutes.

But if you Leave #1 .... then you don't leave for like 10+ games .... you don't move to #2 ... you stay at #1. And if you haven't left a game is a really high # of games - you get no leaver buster whatsoever. I have left several games and never gotten a leaver buster. But ... Prior to leaving that game I hadn't legt a game in like 50+ games.
