AFK Protection

Tacs··5 votes·629 views

Hi there... Well, matchmaking is pissing me off as freakin usual... In 5 games, i had 3 afks and i was fed on all of those games... Yesterday i had 3 games straight with afks, this is freakin me out... Why da freakin hell dont you make a protection on the team with AFKS ? Ok, the rematch is cool, no doubt, but what happened to me was, they got dc after 5 or 10 mins and if the enemy plays in group, we just cant win 4v5... SO my suggestion is: if some1 goes afk for more than 5mins straight, the team can recall a rematch and the guy that was afk gets a defeat, losing the LP accordingly, the rest of team gets a loss forgiven and the enemy team gets a win... I play lol for very very long time, i may not be pro, but it sux my bad luck on matchmaking, i either get awesome team or a crappy team, or some1 gets fed and dcs or afks and u lose, this is FREAKIN unfair... This development is freakin easy to do... Just stop making new champions and focus on the stupid matchmaking problem and game consistency, AFKs protection, scripts protection and better matchmaking algorythm... Cheers and good afk games !

I propose a majority vote of 4-5 from the enemy team that would refund a losing side's LP in the event of a leaver. A system like that would not be so easily abused as the losing side would have no control over it and would not be able to bully a player out of the game as easily. Sportsmanship between teams would also be strongly encouraged just so teams recognize each other as fair and hard working players who deserve forgiveness in the event of an actual leaver. Drama and toxicity brought up between teams would almost certainly discourage players from voting in favor of the losing team.

The vote could also be automated. Come in the form of a pop up in a player's notification that grants players 5 minutes to respond after a match so that it is unobtrusive, but allows for a response even from players who opt to leave the lobby immediately. A player's failure to vote could default into a yes instead of a no just so players are not unfairly punished simply because of their enemies disregarding notifications.

This is actually a great idea, promotes sportsmanship and if you flame you might not get forgiven for a leaver
