i feel like the remake timer for afk's should be more flexible

as you all know right now we are only allowed to remake for teammates that go afk REALLY early in the game.... but i think the timer should be a little more flexible like for example if someone is afk for 5 mins at any point during the game then we should be allowed to remake. given i think the rule that if we dont within a certain time then we have to keep going is fine. but i would like to see this change because (call it a low elo problem) i see it a lot in my games.

in another similar post i commented this suggestion...

If remaking past the 3 minutes is too much to ask how about refunding a % of lost LP equal to the % of total game length someone was afk. So say you lost 20 LP and the game lasted 20 minutes and someone was disconnected for 5 minutes that's 1/4th of the game... 1/4th of 20 lp is 5. You'd get refunded 5 lp.

There is a very easy way to fix this.

No one should gain or lose LP period when someone afks or dc's.
If you have more then 3 AFKS or dc's without return in 5 min in ranked your banned from playing ranked for the rest of the season.

If you did this you would never have anyone AFK or dc again.

If they did they would be banned form ranked and very shortly only people who want to actually play would be left.

And before anyone says but what if your computer dies or the internet quits or i have an emergency.

If this happens more then 3 times you should not be playing ranked anyway.

YOU,

Dont have a computer that meets the minimum requirements.
Dont have good enough internet.
Have way to chaotic of a life to commit to 40 min.

Riot gives to much leway and to many chances in my opinion on a lot of things.

This might make the game a bit unbalanced but perhaps we should be able to remake at anytime of the game when someone afks(for a long time and not coming back).

Basically when we remake, we don't gain or lose lp apart from the player that afks, whom will lose the normal amount of LP of a lost game and the team that didn't remake will count that game as a win. Will this work?
