Leaverbuster

LoL a game which i enjoy playing for fun. But one thing i hate is this stupid leaverbuster.

What happend? My mum felt of the stairs. And just like a normal son i disconneted the game and helped my mum. So why the fuck decides RiTo to give a leaverbuster if you leave 1 game? There are more important things than playing a game of LoL, a shame that i have to wait 10 MINUTES 5 TIMES for helping my mum. So if i see ritos point here is that i just have to leave my mum hurted on the ground or what?

Tell me what does rito want from us and there leavebuster

you know when you leave one time nothing is going to happen.

and the first penalty is 5mins for 5 games. so it seems your mum falls down the stairs a lot? better fix those stairs

You don't get leaverbuster punishments for leaving 1 game. You get them for leaving games at an unacceptable rate. You said you got a 10-minute low priority queue. That means it should be your second punishment and should have followed a warning. So it is at a minimum 3 leaves, but realistically probably at least 4.

Riot is never going to be able to know why you left, this is why there is leniency built in. You have just used it up already.

I get disconnected from League every once in a while, without the ability to reconnect to the game. I'll sit there spamming [Reconnect] and get that popup saying it couldn't connect. And I've never received a leaverbuster penalty for that.

You should install handrailings or other safety features if your mom falls off the stairs with such a frequency that you've earned a low-priority queue.

So apparently, Riot or the game automatically knows that something happened to your mom and pauses the game or what?? What did you expect? I know it's not your fault for leaving because of course you needed to help but that's no reason to blame it on riot :|

Leaverbuster doesn't automatically trigger on first offense, it happens after multiple times within a short period of time.

That's complete bs. I got leaverbustered for being in the washroom when my game started. 3 mins i was afk, the team remade, and I lost IP AND got a 20 min leaverbuster, Like wtf? Is Riot kidding me? 20 mins wait because ppl are too impatient.

If you got a 20 minute wait time then it means that you have a history of frequently leaving/afking. The system has built-in leniency for unexpected situations but frequent leaving/afking will use that leniency up. To get it back you have to not leave/afk in games and take care of everything that you need to do before you queue up for a game. From the Leaverbuster FAQ:

HOW LONG WILL I REMAIN IN THE LOW PRIORITY QUEUE? You will be placed in the low priority queue for 5 games. If you continuously leave, the low priority queue timers increase from 5 minutes per game to 20 minutes per game.

IT'S NOT MY FAULT. MY INTERNET/YOUR SERVERS DISCONNECTED ME. I HAD A REAL-LIFE EMERGENCY. I HAD TO GET OFF THE COMPUTER. THE GAME CRASHED. UNBAN ME! We understand that players may be forced to leave from time to time so the system has been designed to keep these situations in mind. After leaving a few games, you will be placed into a low priority queue; as long as you can complete 5 matchmade games without leaving, you will be returned to the normal queue. However, if you continue to leave games, you will remain in the low priority queue.

What pisses me off is that after waiting 20 minutes, if you are not sitting AT YOUR COMPUTER when that 20 mintues is over, you simply miss your queue and need to START ALL OVER AGAIN! Like WTF Rito, you expect me to site staring at your goddamn queue timer for 20 mintues to ensure I don't miss the goddamn "accept" button? Really? WTF. If I wait 20 goddamn minutes for a game I should be able to get INTO A GAME, not wait another fucking 20 minutes for nothing,
