About Leaver Buster

Okay, I know their have been a lot of games where Players get a Leaver Buster for Disconnecting or being AFK, but why do they get a leaver buster if their computer freezes the game, and I for one, feel that this "Leaver Buster" is a good and Bad thing, the good thing is it makes sure that people pay the price for leaving a game, but the bad thing is it is pissing (Excuse my saying) people off b/c they can't help that their PC freezes and crashes the game. That should be no reason the Leaver Buster should have been given. If you think its a good idea to Leaver Buster then that's fine by you guys but I am kind of Disappointed in that.

Leaver Buster doesn't need to be "fixed" per se, they just need to have a better flag system for the tribunal for delayed punishment.

EDIT: I had connection issues because my ISP has been terrible most of the day, and got a 5 minute queue delay for something I could not control. I was irritated because of the disconnection (and the subsequent loss), but I lost it when I got punished for it. I'm normally a calm player, but this imprecise system of punishment could make a good community member (like me) venomous.

CORRECTION: I received 5 games of 5 minutes of low-priority queue, for a total of 25 extra, undeserved minutes of waiting to join games.

I think leaver buster should also account for your non-active time on league. Like say you havent logged on in 2 months and you only get to log on every so often to squeeze a match in. I dont think its fair in that case to have 5 low priority ques stacked on your account wasting so much time you never actually get to play.

its not fair that you get punished for something you can't control. i think the leaver buster time should be reduced from 20 minutes to something reasonable like 10 cuz how can i wait 20 whole fucking minutes just to play one match and it happens 5 times not even one. its just not fair.
