A Different LeaverBuster Punishment System

Hey, just to start, I'm not an angry twelve year old that got a 20 minute que time for "doing nothing wrong." I genuinely have an idea to improve this system.

I propose that LeaverBuster punishes players by the amount of time that they had been gone / afk. This could possibly improve the rate that leavers return to games, because at the moment, once you are gone for ~6 minutes, that game is already counted as left for you. I feel that the current mindset is "Well, I'm already going to be penalized for leaving, and we basically lost the game, so why should I come back?" With the proposed system, it would give early leavers an incentive to come back and finish games. Maybe some kind of "points" could be used to measure leaver intensity, and when say 50 points is reached, their penalty intensity level is increased.

When a player is gone for: 2 min < t < 5 min = +3 5 min < t < 10 min = +8 10 min < t < 20 min = 15 20 min < t < 30 min = +20 30 min < t = +28

Of course the numbers should be tweaked, but something along the lines of this.

TL;DR? Read it anyway, it's not that long.

Thanks for reading :]
