ok, so i disconnect in loading during my last game and get in the game about 5 minutes late, this was my time d/c in loading in about 2-3 months, i then proceed to play the entire game without incident. Imagine my surprise when upon exiting the game, i will have to wait 20 minutes in a low priority que for my next 5 games. WTF i d/c for 5 mintues ONCE in over 50 games ( i have also NEVER afk'd in a game before), and i get put in a low priority que. Why is this even possible to happen.

It isn't a one time thing for 20 minutes because of a dodge. The time adds up. So you have done it before enough to get you to the 20 minute wait

First off, your thread title is not appropriate. You cannot edit that. But I'd advise you not to post like that. It is NOT cool.

Second, yes, you may have had loading issues. It happens. But sadly, the game cannot determine whether you're having lag or if you are doing something deliberately. That's not saying that you are! Just that the game has no one of knowing one way or the other. So, it defaults to putting you in the low queue. It would do the same thing to me or any other player with the same issue.

If it keeps happening, you can do two things: first, tell you ISP that you are having connection issues. It is your ISP's responsibility that you have a smooth internet connection. Second, send in a support ticket to Riot telling them about the issue. They might be able to help. But "drop the attitude" before you do either one because no one likes being yelled at by jerks.

Without knowing what the game's software considers "frequent disconnects," to me, once every fifty games is not enough to drop you in to a low queue.

Automated systems only do what they are programmed to do. They don't make judgments or observe that you were in the last 80% of the game. It saw that you were had very slow loading issues enough to put you there. Anything further will require a support ticket. No one on the forums can help.
