What I learned from having delayed queue time from LeaverBuster

I'm not gonna go through why I got punished in the first place, but I never left a game intentionally. That said, I'm gonna explain what I learned from having 20 minute delayed for 5 games.

I learned to manage time. While I was waiting for 20 minutes, I did some housework, took a shower, and made a call.
I learned that there was a tool on Facebook to make your profile picture rainbow-colored.
I watched /All Chat and learn about Gweedo.

That's it. Nothing to do with "I shouldn't leave games in the future," BECAUSE I ALREADY KNOW. LeaverBuster punishes actual bad players, sure, but a lot of people are innocent. Some new system needs to be implemented.

For example, don't automatically punish people if they tried to reconnect. Because it can be abused, give more weight to player reports than just seeing if they attempted to reconnect.

In the hundred of these I was innocent posts I see everyday, I've only ever seen rito overturn 1 or 2.

You left games, intentional or not you're ruining other peoples experience because of your actions. The system works just fine.

I'm pretty sure Riot said they don't overturn these. Besides, I did try and finish my 5 lower priority queue games. I'm not asking Riot to let me out. What I am saying is that the system doesn't help correct people's behaviors. Riot already said that they're planning to change LeaverBuster, and I'm giving feedback as to how it can be improved.

My response was aimed at your_ 'a lot of people are innocent'_ comment. When riots data and all evidence I've seen show that's not true. Very few people get falsely banned, and no one gets falsely banned for afking. You can't get falsely banned for leaving. You either left the game or you didn't. So how are a lot of people be innocent? What evidence do you have to suggest this.
