Well, this instance wasn't your fault, but were all of your other AFKs similar client issues? Because it takes several leaverbuster penalties to reach a 20-minute restriction.

Can you take me out of low priority queue?

No. We will not take your account out of low priority queue under any circumstances.

You say it's garbage client, but uh I hate to break this to you, but you may wanna look at your garbage equipment first.

I have only experienced a super small amount of bugsplats, (like literally I can count them on a single hand,) over the course of 8 years and I know better than to use WiFi over a hardwired connection. My PC isn't top of the line anymore either, nor was it when I built it.

Unless you've got a super good company that doesn't throttle your connection or offers high enough speeds that can handle tons of devices connected at the same time, I'd recommend that you drop the WiFi and learn to hardwire yourself in.
