I am curious as to what happened... and what I can do.

From what I can tell, my net connect drop for about a full min or so while the loading screen was up this is where you see the 10players and wait for the 100% to load for each member. This brought up a dialog box something along the line of, but not a quote 'do you want try and reconnect? Cancel / Connect' I had something else to take care of so I click Cancel that took me right out of the game. I came back about 15min or 20min later and logged in then from what I recall I click PLAY which took me right in the middle of the game I was just drop from, I figured nothing of As I am I new player and learning but when the game was done there was a new screen called "Leaver buster" which it asked me to Type Agree to something because it figured I spent the game standing there??? Obviously one has no choice but to type agree but I don't think I really did anything wrong, as it wasn't my fault that for whatever reason it drop me into a game that i really had no idea I was even in. This happened Friday Feb 10 around 12:30pm and I am just approximating the time. I really didn't think much of it other then "wow what the hell" but It now its kinda bugging me. What should I have done, as I really can't help nor predict when my internet connection might drop.

Any insight as to what happened or what I should have done would be appreciated.

I am going to add this little part here as this is the 2nd time I have posted where I get the message that "First off, this is NOT a warning or punishment to your Boards account. Your discussion has been removed due to being posted in the wrong sub-section. We know you're passionate and we want to make sure that you have these conversations in the correct avenues!" Really.... I figured that I was asking for help & support in this posting, why someone feels it need to be in Miscellaneous I really don't know..... As I am new to this whole thing, I will say that there seems to be too many people I am guessing at Riot that need to spend more time helping people then moving posts around??? I really don't want to spend money on this if this is whats its like for help and support.... wow....
I have also done a little reading on this "level buster" thing, talk about potential issues. When ** OR IF** I do spend real money on this game and I get lockout because of this "level buster" thing and a connecting drop, I would be super pissed. I can see understand people getting mad at this for sure...

You should have hit reconnect, immediately, since you didn't you are considered afk, and are punished, which is normal and fair. The reason it does not belong in help and support is because this is a standard happening. I don't know what you're talking about with "lock out" been playing for 4 years and haven't experienced that, and what will happen, if you afk again, is you'll have to wait 5 minutes before being allowed to join a game, this will last 5 games, if it happens again, it will increase to 10 minutes, then 15 then 20.

thanks for the feedback DarkCastkiller. That makes sense.

If I google it, I would have found the link: https://support.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/articles/201752714-LeaverBuster-FAQ

I apologize.
