The solution is to not disconnect at the start of games. Riot has no way to know if you disconnected intentionally or not.

If you click the leave game button they know it was intentional

But if you disconnect from the internet, they have no way of knowing if the internet went out in your area or if you unplugged the ethernet cable/turned off Wifi on your computer.

  1. I know I should't have disconnected but sorry shit happens
  2. I legit have not afked in like months
  3. I was afk for 2 min lol and I came back and still because my team remade I have a queue timer lolol. I have seen people litterally say "GG %%%gets enjoy the loss" and then they click leave game and they don't get banned, Riot logic too strong.

I also never AFK, but my power went out recently. It came back on a few minutes later, but, when I got back, the game had been remade and I also had a 5 min queue timer to wait through, since I had been disconnected and left the game.

I agree, stuff happens. A 5 min queue timer is not too bad. Just wait it out.

If you haven't AFK'd in months, the 5 minute queue is literally going to be all you get for it.

People who do that do get banned, Riot isn't personally responsible for telling you when that happens.

No, you do not automatically get a low priority queue punishment. If you were a "leaver" when a remake happens, then you simply get flagged by Leaverbuster. You got the punishment because you have been flagged by Leaverbuster too much. That's how it works.

Also, how do you know the people who say that then leave the game don't get punished? If they do it often enough, they will get punished by Leaverbuster, and there is no way to know if they have received a Leaverbuster punishment unless you manage to find them streaming. A Leaverbuster punishment is impossible to track through 3rd party websites, and even if you report them, you will not receive a notification that they were punished if it was given by Leaverbuster.
