LeaveBuster Akward situation

Formotis··2 votes·1,322 views

I just got LeaveBuster out of completing a normal AI match There are times when I'm forced to leave matches mid-game, due to health issues, but they are almost always normal games with friends, who are already aware of this, or AI games But right now, after the match that occored at 05 December, by 15:17, suffering a LeaveBuster ? I stood quiet in the nexus for about less than 5 minutes, arguing with a Jinx who had come to my Top lane even tough she said she would go bot on Lobby, after the useless arguing I went to the jungler and no suprise, she backed off her lane to kill the jungler monsters as well I was already steaming by that time, threating her that I would report her, be it a AI game or not, since bot game or not, there has to be respect between players I went to bot lane, where Riven actually allowed me, and then Jinx TELEPORTED THERE as well, to keep stealing both minions and enemies Game was finished, I reported her, and to my suprise, I'M THE ONE who gets LeaveBuster ?

All this was stated as a Request to Riot Games Support, their answer being "Due to a recent left game or AFK on your account, LeaverBuster has placed you into a low-priority queue" This leads me to think eitheir this was a automated message, or something doesnt make sense to me, since i got in this situation after sucessfully ending a normal match ? It looks like i got AFK punishment for NOT being AFK

Furthering my statement with another reply to their answer about me goign AFK due to technical issues

And personally, there is no technical issue, there is a health issue How does this affect my gameplay ? 1 hour limit, and as such, the moment im noticed bypassing that limit, Im forced to leave, be it during a match or not, even if our team is currently attacking the enemy nexus Thats why i prefer the old method, i would prefer to be unabble to play during a timeline, instead of this current system, and why ? Very simple: a match never goes beyond 1 hour, at least from what i know, BUT can easily surpass the 40 minutes ( and thats because 20 minutes have already been spent duo to LeaveBuster ), then again leading to a eventually forced AFK situation

Thats why i usully limit myself to AI matches, since even if a player disconnect, so does the bot itself, and it becomes 4vs4, besides, player are fighting against bots, loosing is nearly impossible, so i dont understand why that necessity to prejudice AFK player on a BOT game

On PvP i understand it, thats why i only play actual pvp with party members and friends, players who are aware of my condition and dont mind me going AFK because even if they lose due to that, they can always do another match ( something I kinda envy on them, their gameplay time is not limited by their health )

Sounds like LoL is not for you. Try another game.

The leaver buster system is independent from the report system. Leaver buster does still apply to AI games. It is an unfortunate situation, and I really feel bad for you, but honestly there's not much that you can do.

Formotis1 votes

Then something doesnt make sense, if LeaveBuster is independent from Report System, how did i end up with it, on this very situation ? I didnt went AFK, i didnt even got the message alert that being too much time quiet would disconnect me, i finished the match from beginning t othe end, so HOW did i end up with LeaveBuster, i ask again ?

Zombiemaster3 votes

Leaverbuster doesn't only pick up on people who actually disconnect/leave the game. It also picks up on behaviors such as remaining idle for an extended duration without disconnecting or just running around the base doing nothing. This is so that people are caught even if they try to game the system. You admitted to just standing at the nexus arguing with a teammate, so that's likely what Leaverbuster flagged you for in this game. Now, you may have been doing this for only a few minutes, but in this game a few minutes can completely change the game around, which is why Leaverbuster still flags you for it.

Also, even if you're playing PvP with a full team of friends, Leaverbuster will still flag you if you go afk/disconnect, because, as said before, it's not tied to the report system. It will flag you automatically, regardless of reports.

Now, an argument could be made that leaving in a Co-op vs. AI game shouldn't count against you, because if someone leaves, a bot will also disconnect to keep the number of players on each side balanced. However, that's an issue that you should either make another thread for or send in a ticket for, just know that Riot will likely not make this change, so try not to get your hopes too high if you decide to try and make a petition for it.

Formotis1 votes

So wait, apart from PvP situation, which I understand, and the AI LeaveBuster situation, which if futile to actually exist ( and I will pick your idea of posting a petition, as soon as I found out how exactly )

But now, on this very situation, the one player who has been disrespect is the one to be punished ? I'm sorry to say, but that doesn't look good on League of Legends, Riot Games, or whoever authority identity is behind the game I didn't stand still because I wanted too, I was DRIVEN OUT of my own lane, from the jungle and even from a lane where another teammate actually allowed me to be there If I have to endure the LeaveBuster punishment from just being iddle for a quote of minutes, then that Jinx must suffer the same punishment or even a worse one Otherwise, it will look like respect between players is not necessarily at all, that being said, I surely don't understand the report option of Intentional Feeding, Harassment, Grieving, etc...

If someone is harrassing you, your best option us to mute (removes the temptation to argue/retaliate) and report them in the post game screen.

As far as the leaves go, the system treats all leaves, afk's, idling, etc. the same. It's the only way to fairly handle it. If you have health issues that may prevent you from completing games and have friends who are ok with it, your best option is to play with those friends in custom games. There is no LeaverBuster monitoring in that format.

AJS, i dont think you understood the actual situation here, that Jinx was not harrasing me by chat, she meddled into my own lane, killing all minions and Chjo'gath and Nunu bots alike As a Azir, what could I exactly do then, with absolute no chances to farm ? What I said above I repeat again, when I decided to go to jungle, so I would not actually be AFK, she came and killed all monsters ( give Jinx a few kills and some attack damage/speed item and forget it, no chance to counter her ) Riven on bot lane literally said me to join her, even tough she could swipe all minions apart with her blade skills, and guess what, Jinx TELEPORTED to bot lane as well

So, after all this, if I'm getting LeaveBuster for being quiet less then 5 minutes, on a AI game, then I presume that Jinx player is to be banned temporarily or permanently, am I right ? If not, I kinda miss the point of "Player Behaviour" then

If that is what jinx did then that is definitely considered punishable. Trolling is much more difficult to detect so she may or may not have actually gotten caught.

But this is about more than this one incident. You got the punishment you did because of what sounds like an extensive leaving history not because of this one game.

Formotis1 votes

You may not be wrong on your idea, after all I stated right above that I'm limited to 1 hour gameplay, and that beyond that I'm forced to leave, not because I want, but because I must And I sure have a FORCED leaving history, since I already got to the point of 20 minutes on LeaveBuster But now, this situation was simply a small trigger, a pure almost ridiculous coincidence ? Does that means that even if this had not happened, I would suffer the LeaveBuster in a eventual AFK game then ?

( Fine, if I'm guaranteed that the actual Jinx received his deserved punishment, I will grab a pillow and sufocate my yellings then, since now I'm on a problematic situation, eitheir ask for a friend to clean the LeaveBusters games himself or try by myself and risk going AFK again ) ( I don't have to remind the fact that all this is bounded to AI games, not actual PvP, I hope )

The reason for leaving doesn't matter. There is built in leniency before you receive your first punishment because it is expected that everyone will have occasional issues. You are essentially going to get 5 games of 20 min low priority queue every time you leave a game now. You can improve your status by completing games without leaving but it takes 100s.

You should also know that account sharing is a perma bannable offense. So you probably shouldn't have someone play out your punishment.

Formotis1 votes

Smoked, that sharing account is bannable I never heard of such thing, I'm even aware of players who share their account to other so they can play rankeds cuz the account owners have school to attend I even know they share because each wants to try a champion the other possess I really don't see why account sharing would be bannable at all, after all, I could share my account with the best player of LoL and he would still suffer a defeat, no ?

But the main part is, stated on my original post, is called RISK Facts:

  • 1 hour limit
  • 20 minutes wasted
  • 40 minutes remaining Possible outcomes:
  • we succed game in time, one less LeaveBuster mark
  • the match goes longer than 40 minutes, not only I bet my own health beyound that limit, but also if I'm noticed, I'm dragged out, leading to the eventual AFK situation ( and I can't even imagine what would happen going AFK on a LeaveBuster situation )

Account sharing isn't allowed for a bunch of reasons. It leads to a lot of account stealing. People don't value other peoples accounts so they don't care how they behave while playing them. It puts players in games they don't belong in so you have poorly matched games. etc.

You should forget about the jinx. This is about you not her. You didn't get this punishment for just that game. You got it for having an unacceptable rate of leaving games over the history of your account.

It seems like you make an effort to limit w/e condition you have effecting other people but it really sounds like you simply don't meet the time requirements to play league. If there is any risk that you have to leave a game then you should not be queuing.

Now you absolutely right, you cannot compare me to normal LoL player, who play matches in a row for 4, 5 hours ? That's why I limit myself, so I don't prejudice the other: 1- I never, NEVER play League, for this very limitation reason ( and because I consider it to be too much pressure, if you do a single mistake, oh God, your teammate going to behead you ) 2- Normal PvP matches I only play with personal friends, who don't mind if they lose due to me going AFK, because they can always play after it ( besides, playing with friends is the only think that holds me to LoL, having them on a Skype call, with the laughs, the cries and the yellings, this is what makes LoL fun to me ) 3- I usually only do 2 AI matches per day ( if there are no friends to play with ), one to acquire the daily win and the second one just for fun, maybe ? And yet, LeaveBuster still applies to AI games as well, which I consider ridiculous, as I said

I have mixed feelings about leaverbuster applying to bot games since I don't personally care about them, but that doesn't mean others don't. I also think it is dangerous to allow leaving in any way. While you may not venture out of bot games, others will. At the end of the day people are signing up to play a 5v5 game and someone leaving prevents that.

1 hour windows are just not enough to guarantee that you can finish a game. Have you considered trying ARAM or dominion? Since they are generally much shorter.

Formotis1 votes

But you aware that on a AI game, every time a player disconnects so does the bot I even remember a game where I tried Phanteon on top lane, and one by one, all our teammates left the game, leaving only a actual Bard player online, and we ended up having fun actually, we didn't report any of those who left, we won, so why the effort of doing so ?

About Dominion, I have tried it quite some times, I had a lot of fun playing with a Zigs and Tahm Kench is perfect for that mode, and I also love the soundtrack But there are certain Champions who simply don't work on Dominion, one of them being Azir, and even tough I on!y bought him few days ago, even tough he is pretty weak compared to what he used too be, I sure have fun "ordering" my soldiers My moto is: why wasting my effort when other can do for me ? ( that why my other mage is none other than Karthus, to be able to score kill anywhere, anytime, is just perfect for me )

About ARAM, sorry, I don't even know what it is, I never ventured much out of the basics

I'm aware that a bot leaves if a player leaves, but people signed up for 5v5, not 4v4.

ARAM certainly isn't for everyone but its a fun low stress alternative. It stands for all random all mid. Originally was just a custom game on summoners rift where everyone would select random and go mid lane and just fight. You aren't allowed to go back to the store unless you die. Later riot made a new map for it and gave it its own official queue. Basically its 5v5 in a 1 lane map where you just fight with a random champion. Games usually don't go past 30 minuets and almost never go past 40.

Game was finished, I reported her, and to my suprise, I'M THE ONE who gets LeaveBuster ?

Yes, you are the one who gets LeaverBuster because you are the one who has been leaving/AFKing/idiling in matchmade games.

But now, on this very situation, the one player who has been disrespect is the one to be punished ?

Just like for Chat Restriction, like how it doesn't matter that you were "disrespected" by your "feeding teammate" and you would be punished for calling them "retarded, incompetent bucket of &%^*#$I", it doesn't matter what that player did.

They are responsible for them, and you are responsible for what you do.

Formotis1 votes

So let me see... I never went AFK, I didn't even shut down the game or got the warning message of disconnecting, I was quiet for less then 5 minutes, on a AI game, and then decided to go to the jungle, to the bot lane, i muself shattered the enemy nexus crystal, and guess what, I suffer LeaveBuster ?

About disrespect, I'm to endure the "trolling" of that Jinx and be quiet about it ? What have I DONE to that Jinx then ? The very reason I was on my Nexus was because I was trying to reason with her, to NO avail, since her replies were always "ajajajajajajaj", whatever that means Even situations like "Azir, where are you ?" and then show up again where I was to meddle with me

So after all, I ask you, what WAS I SUPOOSED TO DO THEN ? Kill minions ? I could not Kill BOTs ? I could not Kill monsters ? I could not Attack the towers ? Yes, and that what I ended up doing so, and still got LeaveBuster as a reward ? All this said, it proves my point that something is not right on all this

Being AFK is shutting down a actual game, ending in a disadvantage situation of 4vs5 Well this neither applies to AI games, or to what I did Following your idea, then being quiet in the Nexus for 1 minute, waiting for the remaining coins to get a certain item is being AFK then, am I right ? In PvP, the game begins with only 4, and then the player reconnects, even tough he was disconnected, let's say, by net or any other issue, he was AFK and is going to suffer LeaveBuster ?

If it happens often enough to get LeaverBuster, for that many games, then yes, because he shouldn't be screwing other people over by trying to play League on dial-up.

Formotis1 votes

Well, then answer me this, who did I screw up for being quiet for 2, 3 minutes on a AI match ? Who did I screw up for actually help the team to destroy the Nexus ? As I said, eitheir remove this LeaveBuster or severely punish that Jinx, who was to one who actually SCREW UP me Funny enough, you eitheir didn't read everything or you missing the important points on purpose

Sona Ping1 votes

Jinx may or may not be punished, likely will, but that is neither here nor there...

I wrote what I did because you are the one who is missing the important point in all of this: YOU are responsible for your own behaviour.

It doesn't matter what anyone else does, you got Leaverbuster because you leave and afk from matchmade games. You wouldn't get it from this one game, you got it from what you do.

Formotis1 votes

Crist sake, I'm having a déjà vu of arguing with that Jinx First, in what way am I responsible for having a disease that may kill me if I overdo my gameplay time Second, I got LeaveBuster FROM this very game, it had been weeks since I was forced to leave

If you saying you prefer a player to risk his own life only to not go AFK, than we have a seriously problem here

And I ask again, who do I screw up for going AFK on AI matches ? Read the other comments, will you ? There are other who agree with me, check the answer of Zombie master

Dude, that is quite literally what the word "responsible" means! You have a disease so you are responsible for taking care of that.

that may kill me if I overdo my gameplay time... player to risk his own life only to not go AFK

Then said player probably shouldn't be endangering his own life by playing a game, said toy is likely not worth it.

Leaverbuster doesn't only pick up on people who actually disconnect/leave the game. It also picks up on behaviors such as remaining idle for an extended duration without disconnecting or just running around the base doing nothing. This is so that people are caught even if they try to game the system. You admitted to just standing at the nexus arguing with a teammate, so that's likely what Leaverbuster flagged you for in this game. Now, you may have been doing this for only a few minutes, but in this game a few minutes can completely change the game around, which is why Leaverbuster still flags you for it.

I'm already getting tired, you keep avoiding mymtrue point, this is what he said that matter:

" Now, an argument could be made that leaving in a Co-op vs. AI game shouldn't count against you, because if someone leaves, a bot will also disconnect to keep the number of players on each side balanced. However, that's an issue that you should either make another thread for or send in a ticket for, just know that Riot will likely not make this change, so try not to get your hopes too high if you decide to try and make a petition for it.

I'm already aware. Not what I am talking nor an agreement with what you said. He said an argument could be made for a change in how Co-op vs AI works.

You said that "Jinx, jinx, jinx, etc... why do I get punished instead of her?!" We both answered "You got punished because you leave games". I'm not avoiding your point, I just pointed out it was irrelevant; you being punished has nothing to do with that player.

OK then, I end up with the LeaveBuster for being quiet for mere minutes Can you guarantee me Jinx has suffered a far worse punishment then ? Guarantee me that and I shall end up this

Incorrect and 'no', you're not right.

Letting teammates know you're waiting for 50 gold to buy an item (which usually results in a positive power spike for your champ) and returning to lane/group to assist in trying to win is in no way the same as you sitting in Fountain for ~5minutes for the sole purpose of bickering with teammates, typing a novel in team chat & having zero intention of returning to lane/group and trying to win the match.

You can continue to serve up as many lame excuses and deflections for your afk'ing in base as you want but as you can tell already by the responses, your actions are against Summoners Code, are reportable, were all choices you made, and the reason(s) why you made them are irrelevant.

That explains much about you, next time I will troll on other lanes, I will feed the enemy, etc... All this and I will not be pusnihed then ? After all, only going AFK leads to a LeaveBuster punishment then Reading your comment proves that you prefer player who troll and disrespect other to AFK players then ?

Try to read all the comments around here and answer me, on this very situation, what was I supposed to do ? How could I play if that Jinx just kept meddling into my own lane, the jungle and even the bot lane, where Riven allowed me to go there As I said, if I'm receiving LeaveBuster for being quiet while arguing with that teammate for less then 5 minutes, then I DEMAND that Jinx player to be banned, otherwise, what's the point of this Player Behaviour after all ?

Here's what you're supposed to do: mute the toxic player the first second they become toxic and return to playing the game. Once the game ends, send detailed player report, then move on with your life. Be sure to write this down for future reference.

Omg, you seriously don't understand what I mean with Jinx meddling with me, right ? I will give you a detailed explanation Show up on my top lane, uninvited, began killing all minion non-stop ( I would focus the back minions, she would shot them, I would focus the front minions, she would shot them ) I would try to fight the Nunu or Cho'gath, how could I ? They would even leave the tower due to Jinx continuously Gatling shot, and then one or two rockets to finish them, even using the ukt blank range when I would send my soldier to actually fight After the useless arguing on the base, I went to the jungle, AND SHE BACKED OFF from Top to kill all monsters in the jungle, even stealing the Blue buff I was currently doing, and kept following all around the jungle, even the enemy one Once again, I recalled to argue with her, to NO avail Riven on bot lane actually invited me to help her, even tough she could kill all minions and enemies with a swipe of her blade, but I at least could attack the back minion and hide myself in the brushes to knock the enemies to her All good, all fine no ? And surprise suprise, Jinx literally says "Azir, where are you?" And TELEPORT to the bot lane, killing everything in the way

Now I ask you, how was I supposed to have fun with the game ? How could I STOP that Jinx for shameless trolling ? All the way to the end, I'm the one punished with the LeaveBuster, and she goes off to another match ( maybe )

Do you dare to say that there was no problem after all, since it was a AI match, after your own answer "Sounds like an intelligent plan, enjoy your ban." ?

You really need to let the jinx go. Everyone here plays this game. They may not know the exact thing jinx did but they understand the kinds of things people can and do do. It just isn't relevant. Nothing another player does or says changes what you are allowed to do or say.

There's nothing you can do to stop people like that. You just have to suck it up and play as best you can, report them after the match, and move on. Its just the cost of doing business.

Everyone understands that Jinx trolled you and followed you around the map - simple concept.

The concept you're failing to grasp is that there's nothing you can do to alter Jinx's choices in game. Nothing.

You choosing to AFK in base, retaliate with a war of words with Jinx, not assist your team for 5 minutes while you're typing - are all decisions you made in your control that are toxic and are equally reportable.

Here's what you're supposed to do: mute the toxic player the first second they become toxic and return to playing the game. Once the game ends, send detailed player report, then move on with your life. Be sure to write this down for future reference.

There is this minor detail "return to playing the game" I returned to the game, to the jungle and to bot lane When Jinx teleported there, I just gave up and used my soldiers to damage the tower and went straight up to destroy the Nexus So I never failed my team, I myself attacked the Nexus together with Riven, Jinx and Yasuo ( our Dr.Mundo was actually AFK, from 10 minutes game to the end ) I already accepted the stupidity of the LeaveBuster, even tough it was a AI game and worse, the fact I never actually went AFK, I assisted my team early game, half-mid game and late game But well, every game has its ups and down, and I finally find our a seriously down on League of Legends

Time to bury the hatch, I think The only thing that fills up my thirst is that according to all you guys, that Jinx player didn't passed unpunished Although I will follow one of the guys idea and find a way to finish off the LeaveBuster system on AI, its just futile to even exist there

Ah, but see, you stood still too long. Even though you were talking, you were inactive during that time. That's why the system flagged you. You can submit a ticket to protest and have it removed.

The secret is to participate. Attack something. Otherwise, the automated system assumes you are AFK and reacts accordingly.

I was not even stil actually, I was running around the Nexus, playing with my soldiers, after I gave up arguing with that Jinx I updated my boots to attack speed bots and went to the jungle And how exactly do I present a ticket ? Riot has all the right to punish me with LeaveBuster, ONCE I ACTUAL go AFK Standing on our base, walking from one side to another, for less then 5 minutes, and the going to the jungle, going to the bot lane, come on, I attack the enemy necus, I was NOT AFK After all, how could I fight and talk at the same time then ? Was I supposed to send Azir all away into the enemy Nexus so he would die to the towers while writing, now that would sound as Intentional Feeding

If you only have 1 hour to play, then SR might not be the right format for you. Granted, the recent changes seem to have sped up average times, but that doesn't include the time spend in queue or in champion select. Just so you know: running through ARAM's can work off the LB penalties, and are generally much shorter than SR games, so those might work better for you.

You said this happened in a Co-op vs AI game? Yeah, that Jinx might have acted like a jerk by interfering with your CS. But trying to argue just lets them know they've gotten under your skin and some people just think it's funny to get another player to retaliate.

If she followed you into the jungle, then why not use her to get Dragon? As Azir, you can stand back much further than Jinx can (meaning she'll tank the damage since your sand warriors are untargetable). If she happens to survive or get the kill? At least you'll still get the assist gold and the team bonus.

Unfortunately, there's an attitude that bot games are trollable; that no one really cares about them because of how easy they tend to be.

And you missed what we've been trying to tell you: Running around the nexus, dancing at the fountain, spending several minutes typing has no difference to your team as if you get up an walk away. You may be sitting at your computer doing just enough not to be auto dc'd, but you may as well be gone. Only two minutes? You have to have seen enough games to know that's more than enough time to lose a team fight, Dragon, and maybe a couple towers.

And again: If you only play with your friends in bot matches, you might find it less stressful in Customs. You can make it so there are only your friends in the game, and you won't get hit with another LB penalty. Sounds like a win to me.

He still hasn't grasped the concept that sitting his Fountain for 5 minutes typing is AFK'ing.
