Due to League rules If someone or couple people grief (int, troll, etc) you end up being their "prisoner". If you leave the game you can get banned and because of it you are stuck doing something you dont enjoy, and you cant dodge every other game because of the queue timer penalty. So if you plan to play just a couple games for fun well Good luck!

I would rather leave that game and go lvl up another account or play something else than be forced to walk around doing nothing. Looking at human psychology i dont believe its healthy to be stuck in an environment you dont like, the anger piles up and molds a person into another toxic player.

Im honestly considering leaving those type of games, I would like to keep myself calm and spend my time on something else. I join a game for 2 reasons, try my best to win and to learn something from my mistakes (dont mind losing games).

If there is a rioter reading this, what is your (Riots) stance on people being held as "prisoners" by griefers

Afaik, you can't be banned for just leaving the game. Riot understands that sometimes real life emergencies happens and the like. I'm pretty sure the worst that can happen if you leave a game is a low priority queue, and those are only handed out to people who afk/dc frequently.

You can't get banned for leaving the game no matter how many reports they send your way (assuming your chat is clean of course). AFK is handled by the LeaveBuster system and the highest level of punishment is 20 minutes LPQ (unless you afk so frequently you triggered a manual review). Being reported for leaving game does nothing because the IFS doesn't do afk and LB will hit you whether you are reported or not. All this assuming you have a clean chat for the IFS to scan....

Sounds like you need to put on some music, mute everyone on your team, and just farm jungle until the match ends. Not the worst thing in the world.
