Another 0/3 afk 10 min mid, while team is winning. PLEASE FIX THIS RIOT.

I'm so, so, so, so, so tired of this happening in my games. Doing well top or bot or jungle, team is winning in CS and KDA, up a drag. Mid is struggling, goes afk and we lose. Why is the losing team punished? This isn't fucking fair. These players aren't banned, even when reported, because it keeps happening. It should be such a harsh punishment. 14 day ban, then perma. AFKing is honestly the worst thing that can happen in a winnable game.

Go ahead and troll me by saying "that's too harsh, maybe the wasn't actually winnable, how about that?" In silver elo, every game is winnable.

"These players aren't banned, even when reported, because it keeps happening"

Are you playing with the same "these players" and noticing they aren't getting banned, or are you upset and relying on hyperbole to vent? Because if Midlaner A has played 100 games, and AFK's in 3 of them, that's still 97% of games he hasn't AFK'd in. I'm not saying that justifies their behavior, but it is an indicator of what the system looks for.

NGL, I usually quit a game every 6 months if I need to. And I've never been punished. Life happens, BRUH.

I'm fairly sure the player base has figured out that you can just quit and, beyond having a que timer, won't be punished.

I've even reported via support ticket and nothing comes of it. It just isn't currently a punishable offense.

Instant ban (14 days then Pema) for those who stays afk or trolling and going to die every time he respawn, end of story. Dont queue up if ur gonna stay afk and dont have will to win game.

from my perspective. there just too few players now. Dominion and Twisted Tree line got removed. I got a feeling they can't afford to ban new players. i have played lol during s1 and quit for years.
