People who go afk in matches get a low priority que, which is a fit punishment....if they only have done it once or twice. But when you have people like Removed, who go afk in more than 50% of their games, they shouldn't get low priority anymore. There needs to be harsher punishments for these type of chronic players. They don't just make people waste time losing a norms, they make people lose hard earned LP. Thoughts everyone?
BetaDude401 votesName shaming much?
King Ziggs1 voteshe does anything to "attempt" to get me ban he even made up saying i had low priority ques 10 times i only had it twice and its been due to computer problems so let him continue his name shaming so he feels better bout himself
SpellWiz1 votesIt's not an "attempt" to get him banned, its an attempt to get EVERY chronic afker banned. It's stupid to give repeat offenders 20 minute que's, they aren't learning anything. They aren't going "let me stop before I get banned." Instead they go "only 4 more 20 minute ques left." Its unfair to the rest of the players who don't go afk in games, especially to those who get stuck with the afkers.
And for the record, he is counting only those 2 during his "computer problems", but he was just in another 20 minute que less than 1 week ago.
Samus721 votesYou mean they aren't eventually banned?
Remove the player name. You're not allowed to do that on the forums.
SpellWiz1 votesNo they really don't get banned. They get put in X amount of low priority ques, and that's the most they get punished. That's an understandable punishment, don't get me wrong, but when you do it chronically, you should start getting much more meaningful punishments.
Samus721 votesSomehow, I doubt that Riot allows you to AFK in a game and never does anything about it other than put you in a low priority queue. If you AFK enough, I'm sure they get banned just like anyone else. Even Blizzard bans AFKers eventually.

He needs to get a permanent ban , he afks at least every other game and riot doesn't do anything about it. You can doubt it all you want , you are doubting the truth (The player in particular I'm talking about is WDxHalid, please a moderator or admin or riot employee, look into his account and his recent games, you will see MULTIPLE afk offenses, please do something about it)
SpellWiz1 votesI know someone, who apparently can't be named, that has been put into low priority ques ATLEAST 10 times due to afking in games. The last time, it was still only 5 games of 20 minute ques.
BroLane1 votesObvious bait = obvious.
LegitMelonhead1 votesYou have to understand the mentality of some of these folks.
I read a post recently where someone said their computer frequently overheats, but since they're mostly playing bot games and it's only happened once of seven PvP games it's not a big deal.
It's a big deal to me, because I dislike having my time wasted. Doesn't matter if I'm playing League or reorganizing my sock drawer - the point is it's MY time, not yours. The penalties for AFK in game, within reason, cannot be set high enough.
Hell, make it simple math. Nine other players * twenty minutes = 180 minutes until you can queue again. Maybe, MAYBE give them one freebie a week to account for rare disconnects - because if disconnects are common for someone, they shouldn't be playing team games.
(Obvious rant is obvious, I know)
SpellWiz1 votesMy "friend" is legit on another low priority RIGHT NOW due to more afks. This is absolutely stupid to give someone the same punishment over and over, it's obviously not changing his behavior.
