Blocked

My son accidentally declined 3 games instead of accepting them. Now he is blocked for 15 min. The buttons are too close together and so he simply misclicked the wrong button. Why are they less than a quarter of an inch away? The entire screen is available, why shove them so close together? Then after the ban, he accepts the game, someone leaves, accepts the game again, someone leaves, accepts again....someone leaves...been in queue over 5 min...he goes to the bathroom and comes back to find out he is banned for 30 min now. What the heck? I get it you are a free game, but come on! The poor kid accepted the game 3 times only to get blocked again. Fix this stupid issue. Its 2018, embarrassing that this is a real thing.
And, since the community has begun quoting "My Son"... I used to play years ago as TheMitchellKing. Now he plays as TheMitchellKing2....help anyone? My account isn't even active anymore...

It depends on how often you leave or decline games. I barely leave or decline games so I usually get put on the low priority queue if I manage to dodge at least 3 times and it's usually only for about 5 minutes at least and if I dodge again, only then am I put on the 25 minute queue. "Your son" must be leaving a lot of games and/or lobbies to merit a 15 minute low prio queue after three declines.

Also, I'm surprised that "your son" has managed to accidentally click decline 3 consecutive times. The accept and decline buttons aren't too close, and the accept button is way bigger and clearer than the decline button. It's one of the main things they've changed since the client change to add more clarity to the game prompts.

So it's either your son is way too young to be playing League to have missed the accept button thrice, or you stop making excuses for dodging lmao.

But then again, that's based off of my experience, so I'm not quite sure how leaverbuster works.

Can your son read? It's not hard to click the correct thing. Can't blame the system for user error. He has 15 min timer to go piss, but decides to do so while in queue. Should teach him life management skills rather than playing a game w him if this is such a big issue

You going to cry about missing a skillshot because you clicked a quarter of an inch off too? How the fuck do you miss the accept button when you have 10 seconds to aim a mouse cursor at it

"My son"

but I agree on this. Sometimes I happen to have a low priority queue (yes we all got it once), and when a game starts, I'm not supposed to stay in front of the screen during the entire lobby. When someone dodges, I shouldn't have to wait 5/20/30minutes again. I shouldn't be punished because someone else did something

I saw him do it twice, he went to accept the game and accidentally clicked decline. There is no...NO...motivation for him to decline a game at this point. Its a simple misclick. There are no teams or whatever decided at this point. I really thought more of the community would understand this.

Most of the community's literate so... No offense, but you have to see how this shouldn't really be an issue if your son could just, I don't know, take time to read the accept button and hover the cursor over said button before clicking it? Again if your son is having a hard time discerning those buttons then I'm going to have to assume he's under the age of 13 and pretty much just not old enough to be playing league. If he can't aim the cursor to click accept then how do you expect him to even target his enemies?
