Improve Loading Screen & LeaverBuster

I was loading into a game and the loading screen said I was at 100%, and that one of the people from the other team wasn't connected. So, believing the loading screen, I thought the other person was causing us to wait for the game to load. I eventually got paranoid and restarted the client, and apparently it was me who hadn't loaded in for 10 minutes or so. I was in the game for the reminder of the time, even caught up and blah blah. We lost - probably because of our team comp and some throws - in the end. However, I still got a LeaverBuster warning despite the fact that it was the client that told me I was 100% loaded. I feel like a system should be implemented to excuse individuals experiencing connection issues, especially if the client suggests that there is no connection issue. Additionally, why does the LeaverBuster even punish people who reconnected for the remainder of the game anyway? The individual never "left", per se.

TLDR - Client said I was 100% connected while someone on the enemy team wasn't connected. Turns out I was the one who didn't connect, and still got a LeaverBuster warning despite getting back in the game.

just ctrl+alt+canc often if you think it's gonna happen,if you see a warning immediately restart the game. Having a premade may help you since he can tell you if the game started
