I don't leave games often(ever). I'm sure you have access to my records and you can pretty clearly see that I have almost no leaves on my history. In fact, every leave I do have was either due to your servers, bugs in your game, or my ISP shitting out on me.

I think your 'new aggressive leaverbuster' with 'low priority queue' is the least intelligent decision you guys as a company have ever made. Especially this line: "Basically, leaving in Ranked is considered "more severe" by the system and leaving even once in Ranked can result in penalties." Your servers are not efficient enough at detecting their own problems for this to be implemented. The next time your server goes down you're going to have 20 thousand people on low priority queue before you guys turn on loss forgiven. Every time you release a patch, you're going to have thousands on low priority queue due to bugsplats that don't get fixed during PTR.

This is a horrible idea.

And I'll be blunt. If I EVER get low priority queue due to something that isn't my fault I'm quitting your game, uninstalling it, and stopping watching LCS. If it's my computer, my router, etc... that's my problem - fine, I deserve the punishment to some extent. But if it's an ISP issue, a routing issue between us, your servers, a bugsplat, etc. that causes me to leave a game and I get low priority for it... then I'm done. You guys will have lost a customer who has literally paid hundreds into your game and continues to spend money, who pretty regularly watches the lcs, who has defended you guys as generally having the right ideas, and who has been playing for years.

This is not a threat, it's a promise. I'm not going to quit before then, I'm not going to quit just 'cause you implemented this incredibly stupid system... but if I ever get put on low priority for something that is outside of my control then you guys will lose a customer. Take that as you will.
