Sometimes I hate having to live with parents, but since I can't pay rent (job searches keep failing because employers don't reply), it's either AFK games to do chores, or get tossed out onto the streets. Not to mention that I'm not given nearly enough advance warning on when they'll be back because they hate games and couldn't care less if I get punished by Leaverbuster.
Now I'm ineligible for loot. If that happens to be permanent... Fuck my life.
Deep Terror Nami3 votesIt's not permanent, and I don't think the ineligibility for Leaverbuster lasts very long at all.
KraZii Poet2 votesif an employer doesn't reply, be persistent. Check in with them, go in person.
darkdill1 votesThat can sometimes damage your prospects, as employers may see that as being annoying or nosy.
KVbqbFsC8e2 votesWhen did Leaverbuster start making you ineligible for loot?
Sukishoo3 votesSince always.
KVbqbFsC8e1 votesIt didn't as recently as a few months ago.
Sukishoo2 votesYeah it did. It's been like that since Loot was added. Leavebuster can take away those privileges just like anything else.
KVbqbFsC8e1 votesOdd. I have an account that was both leaverbuster'd and manually banned for two weeks for getting dropped from games, but it didn't affect my eligibility at all.
Sukishoo2 votesIt takes different things away for different reasons, not all at the same time or all the time.
I was afk in a few games quite a few months ago and had my loot stopped for a few hours.
KVbqbFsC8e1 votesWhat I had gathered from it is that the Instant Feedback system is what takes away eligibility, but not Leaverbuster.
KVbqbFsC8e1 votesWell, I just tested it out on an old account that was Leaverbuster'd and low priority qued, and just as I thought, I was eligible for loot. I got a chest.

You got a chest. You lost half your games for groceries. Amazing.
KVbqbFsC8e1 votesChest and a key fragment. On an account I never play even though it has the Riot K9 Nasus skin I like. Oh well.

/s
KVbqbFsC8e1 votesYeah, a 5 year/$125 million contract extension, while declining every year. Its finally over though.
warwiller1 votesBeg pardon?
KVbqbFsC8e1 votesWell I'll be honest, I don't really know what you're talking about.
warwiller1 votesMango
An oval which is colored by fire and contains a stone of unique qualities. It radiates warmth by nature but it's flesh is cool. It can produce two effects within the body, both initially caused by a strong heat given off in the stomach, which is then transformed either to hot or cold energy which turns into active or passive energy respectively once it enters the brain. Found in tropical areas on moderately short trees. In a rare occasion the core of the mango has been known to give birth to a golden bird which flew towards the sun. Nothing is known about this bird except the appearance. When a mango falls into seawater it reacts extremely with it causing an odd phenomenon of temperature to occur within the water around it while the mango increases in heat.
AgeOfTheMage2 votesYeah, that happens to me all the time, so i double check to make sure there's nothing going on
RookPusher1 votesBest advice I can give you for the job hunt is to use your network.
What industry are you looking into and what region of the country? (Northeast, Southwest, Florida)
Shadòw1 votesclap them lol
warwiller1 votesRiot should make a special pardon just for your situation.
Dispelle1 votesIf timing around random irl happenings of any sort is an issue, it's best to play late evenings. Do all chores that you're expected to pitch in for FIRST. Ask all in the house if they expect they'll need anything before you shower, etc. She'll likely not be going to Wal-Mart to shop at this point. When things settle down in the day is realistically the only time of day you ought to be trying to play a full game. If she leaves for groceries, don't queue up. Starting a queue can take 15 min or more when you combine, queue times, bans, picks, very possible dodges riiiiiight before loading screen, wash, rinse repeat. Then there's someone's toaster keeping you in loading screen. Then your game is 20 mins in and your mom comes back and wants help because she's somehow managed to buy half the freaking store and shove it in her trunk in the space of 40 mins.
So yeah.... Just don't do it during the day. Do an Aram or something.
As for the jobs, mayyyybe give them a couple days and call them. Have an intelligent question or two ready about the job they're offering (to show them you at least know enough to know what questions to ask). Start googling stuff on making yourself stand out in a good way during job hunts.
Also, if your mom is chillaxing during a favorite couple of episodes of HER favorite show, ask her if she expects to need help during it. It would be a good time to let her know you'll play a game during HER entertainment time. That might let her see that chill time is chill time, no matter what form it takes (hopefully she's self-aware enough to feel like a hypocrite if she allows it for herself but pitches a fit about others). If she has too much of a double standard.... maybe start vacuuming the living room during her show. :P
LordGeovanni1 votesI feel you but that aint riots business tell your parents they need to respect that what you are doing is akain to takeing a quatter back out of a foot ball game. As parents they may not have any respect for you because parents but they should feel something about the strangers you have to que with tell. another example is they in the middle of getting their hair done and some one walk in shut down the salon or barber shop while your hair half done.
vampirekid131 votesits not permanent but in a situation where you keep getting punished by leaverbuster it might seem permanent.
now if you improve your behavior and stop leaving games randomly all the time eventually you will get rewards again, but if you keep up the current pace you will most definitely not come back to earning rewards.
the thing with parents is that since you are in their house, you kinda gotta listen to them about it. instead of making a war zone where they keep interrupting you, talk to them about what your responsibilities are in the house, and be proactive so they cant complain about it.
plus since you are young you are likely spending way more than your healthy dose of time gaming. and while im sure its fun, its also a gigantic waste of time in general. 2 hours a day every 2 days isnt bad. 2 hours a day daily is.
