Leaver Buster punishment should be less harsher for those who starts the game afk then remaked.

Sorry. I'm not a native English speaker so please tolerate my language.

Two days ago, i got punished by the leaver buster because of a client bug that refused to pop up the loading scree. So i contacted Riot support for the problem but i got it fixed by my own.

In the ticket, i noticed the rioter said "There is a point where you leave your team 4 vs 5", I'm not asking for my punishment to be removed as riot said that they will not under any circumstances. I'm asking that the punishment for remaking should be less harsh, since you didn't actually leave your team 4 v 5 for the game, it was remaked so they can play a fair another 5 v 5 game.

Bugs are gonna always exist anywhere on any game or program, so sometimes it's the not player's fault for loading up into the game. I don't even know if leaver buster still punishes for less than 20 min.

I disagree, remaking feels like a huge waste of time.

If this happened to a bug, then it probably won't happen enough times to get a real punishment

^ This. Using a bug is just an excuse. Leave buster only hit if you disconnect from games consistently. I'm at a 1 dc per 10-15 games due to my wifi and never got a leavebuster warning.

At that rate of DCing, you are in danger of a 14 day ban.

I believe that leaverbuster only procs if the DC/inactivity lasts for more than 3 minutes, so perhaps you reconnect more quickly than that. But, you're putting your teams at a very large disadvantage.

At 1/100 games, leaverbuster normally very quickly scales up to its max of 20 minute LPQ.

LeaverBuster hasn't used time bans in years. I suppose it's possible if a manual audit shows excessive leaving, but I haven't heard of anyone getting a 2-week LB ban since they instituted low priority queues.
