You can AFK as many times as you want in ranked, but the minute you're negative, bye bye.

Because keeping players hostage, making them lose LP, making them miserable with no way to respond and wasting their time isn't no where near as bad as telling them to go fuck themselves, even when they can mute the player and move on!

Seriously though, what the fuck kind of logic is this? Oh no, I got 5 20 minute timers, it's not like I can't play another game on the side while waiting.

This thread adds nothing that you didn't say here.

What are you expecting from this thread that couldn't have been brought up in the previous thread?

Because players play to have fun, which isn't contingent on winning or losing, but is contingent on people not being jerks.

This topic was thoroughly explained to you in your last thread from earlier - making a new thread isn't going to change anything. You don't have to agree, but that doesn't make you right.

Hey, fam. This is still wrong. It didn't change at all from the previous version. Going AFK more than once will result in punishment tiers. :3

"You have been given a 14-day suspension because your dog knocked out your power cable" yeah that seems real fair, no-one could complain about that

Unfortunetly dude I don't think your going to keep this thread because it is considered as "spam" and might soon get deleted/locked by a moderator or adviser

Hey sayco123, you are touching on a fundamental design flaw in the game. N3AC3Y made a video about it. This is largely the source of "toxicity" in the playerbase. To quote: "You're powerless against people who want to waste your time."

I do agree with the AFK system it should act like DOTA 2, When a player disconnects for 5 minutes everyone is safe to leave the game and they take a peanlty if it happens too often (Banned from Ranked Play) for like 3 games to start with and increasing with each time if it's intentional obviously banned from the game after so many times of doing it.

Not talking about like afk due to Real Life Emergency, or Power Outage etc.
