Can we get an appeal button?

My area has been having some issues with the internet lately, this has caused me to disconnect a few times in the last couple weeks. However, I am usually able to reconnect and finish the game and only have 1 where I just couldn't connect at all. In my last game I couldn't get in for 9 minutes because I had to reset my router, but I did reconnect and finish the game with an ok score for a support 1/4/13. I apologized to the other players and noone seemed upset, my team even won but leave buster decided to punish me anyway. So now I have to wait 20 minutes to even que and that is fucking bullshit especially since its an automatic system that can't take into account some extenuating circumstances. I admit I have left games in the past and been put in the lower priority que before but I have mostly stopped that, I even got a message a couple months ago thanking me for my improved behavior. I think I have only left 1 game intentionally in the last month and that was because my entire team was feeding and being toxic with one another and wouldn't just surrender on top of that. I think an appeal button would help in cases like these. It would give players a chance for an actual person to look at their case and make a decision instead of just autopunish for dc's. Surely they can detect reconnection attempts so you can even have a system in place that counts those vs number of games dc'd from and auto dumps appeal request from people who aren't trying to reconnect. Honestly, it probably needs a more complicated formula than that to stop everyone from hitting the appeal button but at least give us an option riot.

You can appeal punishments with support tickets but this is the system working as intended. You know that your internet has been having problems but you queued anyone. I don't know how much of that 20 min low priority queue you racked up during this issue, but being at 20 min is indicative of a pretty serious leaving problem. You didn't get it for just that one game, but your history of leaving games at an unacceptable rate.
