So me and a buddy were playing and got a rioter and jhin smurf on our team, we were smashing the game then both of them AFK. We almost won the 3v5 with my darius main buddy but in the end it was pointless. I would really like an apology from the Riot ClakeyD :/ ( I dont want an apology i was just joking )

Thefrostyviking25 votes......I could not help but notice that Yasuo was flaming in the chat.
Of course it was the Yasuo 😑
Bright Claws2 votesnods
sleepysithlord2 votesThe ultra rare positive KDA and flaming Yasuo
Thefrostyviking2 votesI have never, not even once, seen a positive Yasuo who didn't feed his ass off.
And the ones who got fed either remained quiet, died repetedly to endless greed or at some point, opened up and a torrent of insults and pings sprung forth and drowned the chat like a genesis flood.
Then again, Vayne players often do the same x)
SiIver Tempest2 votesHonestly Vayne and Yasuo players are the worst. Anyone who plays them is almost always an asshole. God forbid someone main both of them. That person would probably be the worst human being alive.
Thefrostyviking1 votesIts not that bad i think, there are several that do keep quiet and don't chat either which is fine.
But for some reason the memorable cases when someone just floods the chat with torrents of insults are often Yasuo or Vayne players tilting off the earth.
Maybe it's because it gives you this feeling of watching a stereotype become real infront of your eyes?
SiIver Tempest2 votesI was meming because I main Vayne and Yasuo lol.
Chembaron Yamada1 votesYou monster...
Chembaron Yamada1 votesToday I played a game with a Yasuo. He did pretty well, got fed like hell. Then in one situation, both of us died up there in top lane and Yasuos comment to that was "Sorry, mb, I misplayed that."
I was like [slayer-pantheon-rainbows] A unicorn!!

Even if you set loose a elephant in a glassware shop nothing will go bad xD
RallerenP18 votesWhy? You aren't really entitled to that?
You don't get an apology from normal players for AFK'ing, and as such you shouldn't expect it from a Rioter. For all you know they DC'ed due to technical problems (which is more likely, as not behaving nicely in games (this includes intentionally AFK'ing) is grounds for being fired),
It would be ridiculous if everyone wrote on here everytime their teammates AFK'ed expecting apologies, and circumstances aren't different just because they're a Rioter.
Altiverse49 votesI don't think he's really serious about the apology. It's just funny how a Rioter AFKed in a game (though I'm sure it wasn't intentional) :P.
SaladSavior21520 votesBecause they are an example, they enforce rules that go against these things and if they turn around and break these rules they are hypocrites and should not be looked at in the same way.
AeroWaffle20 votesUnless the Riot'er was afk'ing intentionally there really wasn't a rule broken.
Leavebuster allows players the the occasional rare dc/afk because sometimes a person's internet connection goes out or something happens IRL that demands their attention immediately. You can't reasonably expect every player to never leave a game.
What Is Smite2 votesExcept if their connection did go out, the game wouldn't have finished because their LA server uses the same line for their office computers. If their connection did go out the game wouldn't have finished because Riot's made deals with ISP's to take their game traffic on their own servers to reduce latency for players.
Player3Th0mas17 votesYeah well. Rioters have lives. Families. Their own houses! They aren't in office 24/7
Chermorg20 votesThey don't have an LA server. The NA servers are based in Chicago. And to play on the same internet connection as the servers would require hard wiring into them.
Oxyrotten2 votesThey don't have an LA server. The NA servers are based in Chicago. And to play on the same internet connection as the servers would require hard wiring into them.
This is a bit misleading. "Hard wiring into them" is as simple as plugging in an ethernet cord. And there's no reason at all someone at the server location couldn't do that (with permissions).
Chermorg6 votesRiot’s servers are very controlled. Not everyone and their mother can access them.
Oxyrotten2 votesRiot’s servers are very controlled. Not everyone and their mother can access them.
That's fine and all to say, but doesn't change anything. If you have the proper permissions it's still as simple as plugging in a cord. And we aren't talking about the servers, we are talking about the network. You wouldn't plug into the servers to play, you would plug into the network.
Average Gerg5 votesStill, he's probably not in Chicago. Plus, he was probably at home, since this game was played at 2 am.
And since this was his last game of the night, I'd guess his internet went out.
Telephone Booth1 votesBecause they are an example, they enforce rules that go against these things and if they turn around and break these rules they are hypocrites and should not be looked at in the same way.
And yet their rules allow an afk every once and a while so idk your point.
SaladSavior2151 votesmaybe you cant read but i just explained it, no offense to you if you find it offensive
Telephone Booth1 votesmaybe you cant read but i just explained it, no offense to you if you find it offensive
The rules ALLOW an afk every once and a while though. So they did what is allowed, so what rule was broken? They AFKed one game. I've never been punished for afk, unless I do it consistently in a short amount of time... So how are they hypocrites when I can do the same thing they did and not get punished for it? That was my point.
By the way, if I couldn't read, don't you think I wouldn't be able to write coherent sentences either? What a silly idea.

How much you wanna bet they got caught playing during work?
Cowseed5 votesBut is it really 'playing' if it's the game he works on?
AlienPrimate1 votesDo you really know that (s)he works on the game though? S(he) could be an accountant, artist, janitor, HR rep, security, technician/IT, or whatever else it takes to keep a big company running.

2AM....
Cronofuge9 votesI understand your frustration but you really shouldn't name and shame. For all you know it was a DC. There's a massive difference between AFK'ing and DC'ing.
StarGuardianWeeb4 votesi like that the winning team was raging in chat. #ClassicLeague
charliebitme284 votesPeople are saying that it was because of a DC that the rioter left. But what happened to his duo? They both left according to the OP. I dunno about you but unless the two of them were on the same internet that crashed, that doesn’t look like an accident to me.
Jo0o4 votesThat's not uncommon. I duo with folks in the same room all the time. You bet if the power goes out, we're both gonna vanish.

FioraWillCarry1 votesHow do you know he works for Riot? Because he has the word "Riot" in his handle? That could be anybody.
Who Fed Ru18 votesonly Rioters can take that in their name
YerroFever1 votesIt's not guaranteed that that player is a Rioter. They didn't have name restrictions for a long time so anyone could put Riot in their name when they created their account.
I know they restrict it now, but does anyone know if they forced name changes on everyone who already had Riot in their names before their policy change?
Myozthirirn5 votesThey forced everyone with riot on their name to change it.

You can't put 'Riot' in your name at all, it won't allow you when you're creating a name
YerroFever2 votesYou can't put 'Riot' in your name at all, it won't allow you when you're creating a name
Previously, you COULD have but they instituted a policy change, as demonstrated
https://support.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/articles/201752814-Summoner-Name-FAQ#h1q4
They mandated the name change after their policy change
Otherwise, they wouldn't have put in
If a name is found to contain this info, it may be subject to change by Riot.

If it was anyone else you (or anyone else) would have a different reaction on AFK-ing
StainlessTweedle1 votesHow so? I know that riot employees can also have problems that can force them to leave a game in progress just like any one of us
