I've been hit with the AFK/Leaver thing more times than I can count. Unfortunately I don't have any advice to assist in your decisions here, but I have a family I take care of, and when the dog gets sick or my child wakes up at night and I'm playing, my loyalties are to them. i come back, get the leaver thing, OK whatever. IMHO, the 5 games is a bit steep. I wouldn't mind 3. I recognize my actions are going to cause the other 4 human players on my team some stress and take away from the fun. Keep it at 5 if you want, I'm sure someone there had a good discussion about why 5 was the magic number, but I would like to see it lowered. You're missing the mark trying to target leavers, and hitting people that have a legitimate reason to get up from the game for a few minutes.

To be fair though, it is you who chooses to place yourself in game knowing that these things may happen. You might try searching on the boards for other players with similar issues like family and such who all have the agreement to not afk report each other and let the enemy team know that the other 4 are cool with it if said event occurs.
