Hold up- Leaver buster though

Can we all just take a moment to go back to the overly harsh leaverbuster system? As far as i can tell, riot has gotten overwhelmingly negative feedback for the leaverbuster system implemented late last year from people like me with a bad computer/connection and people seeing flaws and extremely overly harsh aspects of the leaverbuster system. I love how they said they would only ban you for leaving multiple games in a row, and then give you low priority when you leave one game and another game two freaking weeks later. Why the hell hasn't riot done something about this or taken it down after the up roar about it?

There is no way to please the masses. The same people that rage about getting a low priority queue because their internet crashed are the same people that cry about somebody going "g2g. dinner ready" There is no way to tell the difference between the two, and in all honest opinion - the best way is to punish both. Yes it's shitty. But I think a majority of the community will agree that it's better to stop the raging afk's and the "oh I g2g" than to let them continue just to cater to people with shitty computers and poor internet. I say this, but yes. It's happened to me before. I ended up with a several day ban because my internet kicked me out of 2 ranked games, a day apart from each other.

because every time you disconnect from a game due to your bad computer/connection you waste at least 20 minutes of 9 peoples time and make them all happy leaverbuster exists.

The name Leaverbuster, imo, is misleading. It is just as much to stop people with bad connections/computers not just rage quitters.

The fact that you even refer to your leaves on the scale of weeks suggests you are having way to many problems. You need to fix them before queuing again not just hoping that you don't DC from your next game.
