Hello fellow summoners, I have been playing this game for some time now Although i really like the feel and looks of the game There is one thing that ROYALLY piss me off Guess what that is That's right, the LeaveBuster Although i find that it might be necessary I don't think punishing summoners for having to go afk with reasons like -Surprise dinner party at the mother in law -Bad internet connection -the famous Attempting to reconnect in game which stays there for five minutes and by that time you have already disconnected from the game to fix the problem because this attempting to reconnect label doesn't do nothing and ends up putting you AFK anyways -Lost of battery for thoses of you who play on laptops -etc

Ik it is necessary to keep people from rage quitting and going afk just to piss off the team i find their are way more annoying things in game than that such as Trollers, InstaLockers, Bad attitude, and that one guy who feeds all game only to start the surrender vote.

I would like to propose a suggestion, how about at the end of the game if someone goes afk the team decides wether or not they wanna report him as truely being afk, because if the guy has been friendly all game, great cooperation, and that in the middle of a fight goes afk, you usually know it wasn't on his own degree eh?.

And after that i also suggest that the leave buster queue restarts after 20 good games for example, because having to wait a 20 minute queue because the game wouldn't reconnect even though your internet was working (Youtube, Google, LoLKing, MobaFire) i find it outrageous or if that is not an option, could you please lower that queue, like make it always 5 minutes, that ways it punishes them who leave for bad reasons (ragequits, piss off team, what ever) and if you end up having those errors or accidents noted above (or more) you dont have to wait what could potentially be a full game in queue.

Well i'm done for now, hopefully i aint the only one who is having these issuses. Please Bump this post and give it some love if you are with me so that riot notices this and maybe do something about it Also, i dont have ideas about this subject but something that could help towards the banning process of thoses with negative attitudes and bashing on everyone. (The system in the most recent patch works well, just curious about other ideas that might help keep this community clean :)

Thanks for your time, hopefully this will change something

These are examples of things my friends and i could come up with feel free to add you own

Raven, Ryze

Although this might be necessary in Ranked games (since i am only lvl27 i do not know yet) but i do not find a 20 minute low priority queue necessary for regular games, especially if the case is out of my control (because the internet was still working) and must have been a bug in the game or something. this obviously not being the first time. i only afked once that i can qualify my fault, and that is when my mom told me i needed to go to a diner with family which had been planned earlier that day without my notification.

Leaverbuster doesn't dish out low priority queues or bans for a single offense. You must be going AFK or leaving rather often compared to the number of recent games played for it to happen. It will give out a warning first as well. The severity depends on your ratio of leaves to number of games and the time in between.

Any way you look at it, if you are leaving the game for however legitimate the reason, you are affecting 9 other players by your action. Of course, life happens, so that's understandable! However, if it's happening 3 out of 8 games.. maybe you should reconsider when you queue for a game - How likely are you to get interrupted? How stable has the internet been? (Perhaps try a test-game if you believe it's League's fault.)
