AFK or Leaving Games

Why isn't there a way to end games before 20 minutes, if you have more then one afk or people leaving games. For example I just had a game and 2 summoners didn't even connect to game. So basically it was 3v5 from the beginning, and after that another left. Making it 2v5. I think in cases like this there should be a way to surrender or leave game without a time penalty.

I still say they need to implement a gold income transfer system for every leaver... The gold income is 16 gold every 10 seconds, but if someone leaves then that character is sitting there STILL getting the 16 gold every 10 seconds. Sure they MIGHT come back but odds are they normally don't. And even if they did it wouldn't be but a couple of seconds they miss out on. I'd rather play it safe then lose out on an entire game worth of gold going to someone who isn't helping what so ever.

The solution? When a player leaves the game for any reason have their gold income split between the rest of the people still playing. 16 gold every 10 seconds from 1 leaver splits into +4 gold every 10 seconds for the remaining players. Should the "Leaver" return then the gold income is then returned to that player. At least with this people will stand stand a minor chance 4v5 or even 3v5.

In my opinion i think Riot should make it where, in ranked game situations, if you have an AFK, you should not be penalized for the lost. The winning team will get their IP and LP for the win but the losing team that had to suffer because of an AFK of another member for whatever reason should not be hurt because of it. And if the team with the AFK does win, it should be the same as usual, maybe more LP/IP for winning and struggling.

honestly i think that it should just simply end the game if there is more then one player no connected. end it with a loss prevented, for ranked or for normal just end it. if it's before the 20 minutes.and if it is after the team should get a vote-able question asking if they would like to surrender and have the game nulled during ranked play.
