Low Priority Queue is a Failure

How can you, Riot team, feel empowered as though you've achieved some great service? How can you believe that what you've done is worthwhile? If you truly believe that punishing players by these standards—a faulty version of a republic dare it even be compared to that alone... To wait 20 minutes in Low Priority Queue based on 4 peoples opinion (you know how it go) then to miss the queue pop and have to wait another 20 minutes? Ridiculous! Riot Team, you are congruent to a Big Brother government that conspiracy theorists get so hot about. Using whatever tools you can to have as much control over people as you can. Shame on you.

To wait 20 minutes in Low Priority Queue based on 4 peoples opinion

What? How is this related to 4 peoples' opinions? You get LeaverBuster penalties from leaving or AFKing .. not from peoples' opinions.

You also have to leave A LOT of games to get a 20 minute penalty. First it is a warning, then you must show a history of leaving, then you get a 5 minute warning, then you have to leave some more for a 10 minute penalty, then you have to leave even more for a 20 minute penalty. I'm exhausted from typing how many times you have to have left.

then to miss the queue pop and have to wait another 20 minutes?

Well, yeah .. How would it be a penalty if you could just go watch tv for 20 minutes and then queue for a game? How would it be a penalty if you didn't feel it?

A lot of big words, not big on sense though. What is this?

You actually don't have to leave A LOT of games but nice try being dramatic generic Riot Employee. Got d/c'd out of a BOT GAME today of all things and boom 20 minute penalty. First AFK/DC in gee idk months? But somehow 20 minutes. It's hilarious that you geniuses think a 20 minute pre-queue is adequate but you STILL can't bring down champion prices. DOTA 2 ftw...hell even HoTS is catching up to this zZzzZzzZzzZzzZzzZzzZzz item 3151

Don't be rude to riot games they make rules for punishment for your leavebuster,if you have low priority queue don't duo until you have the last one.

I've been hit by leavebuster very unfairly a few times, mostly for leaving during champ select, and by leaving I mean having the 'ban' button greyed out so I couldn't do anything about it. I shouldn't have to waste 5 extra minutes of my life because of a broken client.

So here is the problem that I have with this system. My buddy and I haven't played in a while, and honestly we have afked a few times before. He Afked one time after a year of not playing and we played a few games before hand.

Our Afk before was connection issues and in no way was it something intentional, this time I don't know what happened to him haha.

Anyhow, we were waiting for 20 minutes so we could play this time after the him getting it the first afk within a year, and we hit the 20 minutes mark. I accidentally hit the back button, and we had to restart the whole process again.

So basically what I am saying is that, we are being punished for something that happened a while ago, very very few afks within the past two years and the "CODING" doesn't give a shit. So we are fucked and I barely ever have time to ever fucking play. Now I waited 40 fucking minutes to play a game that I haven't played in a long time.

Stupid ass coding, and I would love for you to explain that too me..

Now, I will say I have my fair share of going afk. With that said, 85% of my leaves are because I had a random internet failure or my pc decided to wack out on me, with that being said...RIOT please find a way around this, it's not everyone's fault, I've been in low priority que almost since I started league let along I've been banned for two weeks multiple times for in game comments that I didn't make but someone else did and reported me for it...your system is fucked, your workers seem to be fucked and the way things run are fucked...I still love your game & think it's one of the best competitive games in the world as of right now but if this isn't fixed I can promise my friends & me will not touch Riot Games.

If riot wasn't so fucking lazy and only concerned about making skins to soak up money from their dwindling player base they would implement a pause button into their game like almost every other competitive multiplayer game has. That and voice chat. Implement a pause button and you can get rid of 90% of people who make the excuse that they had a small thing break etc.
