@ Lyte, Leaverbuster

I was put into a 5 game lower priority queue that has lasted for 7+ games now, while the system said that my lower priority queue was over 2 games ago.

Now, I would also like to express my concerns with the new Leaverbuster where people like me who have bad internet sometimes know that they cannot play competitively till they upgrade their internet. Due to this reason many people only play for their win of the day in beginner bots.

So my question is, why do I have to suffer even though I know that I cannot play competitively and thus only play beginner bots where the only time I AFK is when I take time to load up the game on the loading screen. Do I really have to waste 5 minutes for every game to start up for taking measures, on my own, to avoid a competitive setting? I cannot play for my win of the day, with bots, in peace without this new Leaverbuster nonsense?

This makes no sense at all. I don't know if Lyte honeslty thinks these overly harsh punishments will actually help the game or if he has just gotten drunk with power.

Could someone please clarify these concerns of mine?

I've been saying all along that Leaverbuster needs to ignore bot games. Bot games already accommodate for people who disconnect by having bots afk... so what's the harm? That's where people SHOULD be playing if their connections are unstable or if they're uncertain of their computer, etc...

@Eleshakai Its quite tough to navigate through the"Boards" so I have not been in touch with the discussions here, but I hope your view is being given attention as it seems quite obvious to me as well. Punishing people for loading late in bot games seems so dumb to me, especially if people do it just for First win of the day.

I hope I can get a little more attention to this thread and for someone from Riot to fix my 5 minute waiting period issue.
