We need to deal with AFKers

Hello everyone, I just wanted to say that I am not the best player at the least, I have been silver for as long as I remember but this is a problem that I think players in lower ELO face the most: and the problem is AFKers. In this low elo, people give up too ez. Every time I hit the upper end of 50 lp, League keeps sending me unranked people who won't care to afk if a bad play happens. There must be some system to implement as this been the bane of many players for as far as I remember, and if you search you will find hundreds of posts like this.

So riot I know you love to ignore your community, but don't you think its time to do something about this matchmaking. I don't care to wait 5 min in a queue, if I have to withstand another 15 min after someone afking.

You're right, Riot has this massive conspiracy to hold you and only you back.

I suggest you buy a few ultimate skins, that'll get you on their good side!

Riot needs them because they make up 75% of their player base that gives them funds. That is why the worst possible toxicity in online gaming is treated with a slap on the wrist.

We do, it's called "Leaver Buster". It's just so damn common. Report and shut up. Move on.
