Would like bigger AFK penalties in Ranked games

It's scary how many people are AFK in Ranked matches. OK, so a game is a big time committment, and Real Life Happens. But when you play Ranked, you should be more certain you can actually play the game.

I am writing this because there were 4 games with AFKs (at least) in my 10 provisional games for Season 5. I'd really like to see stiffer penalties for being AFK in ranked games. Being too punishing in Normals makes no sense, in my opinion. But the reason I play Ranked is because, you know, I'd like to compete for a Rank. But when so many of my Ranked games come down to which team has an AFK, I wonder why I bother.

I feel really guilty when I have to afk. I've only afk'd twice in my entire time i played league. This is what was happening

Mom did you and dad schedule any events today? No we didnt.

Ok time to jump into a league game (20 minutes later) C'mon lets go have lunch with my co worker.
