TILT! Match Que AFKers

Lycanoon··1 votes·329 views

Personally...this is getting old. People put themselves in Que, then when a match is found...THEY DONT ANSWER THE QUE! Then you have those who WHINE when they don't get a champion they want, and cause the match to disband...thus resulting in them AFKing again in Ques.

Seriously RIOT, can you put a lil penalty on these people? If they dont answer their Que, they can't join matches for 10 minutes or something? This is getting extremely OLD and FAST...

They already have something like this, but just like everything else rito does, it only kicks in after like 5 dodged games in a row.

This is an interesting comment to me. Many of the systems do give some leeway because most thing can happen that aren't completely in a persons control. But dodging is not that way. Every dodge has a punishment(including your first) and they scale up the more you do it. I'm not positive but I think failing to accept a queue in ranked gives a -3 LP like doing and counts as a loss if you are in a series. I do think they should add a short dodge penalty for failing to accept a queue starting at like 1 min to prevent people from doing it over and over, but I'm not really sure that happens with any regularity.

failing to accept a queue is how they exploit matchmaker and get their feeder accounts on the other team

Yea I meant dodged queue.. I don't know if you lose any LP for not accepting a game though..

Both aspects of your statement are true. Then you also have friends that purposely whisper each other AND/OR the location of your team mates or theirs.

I've been getting targeted quite often when playing Twitch in PVP...i can go into hiding and TADA, someone from half way across the map appears IN MY FACE and there are no wards around...or minions...and I'm still on my teams half of the map at that.

Either im over-thinking...or this is becoming a problem.

Maybe they decided last minute they wanted to do something else or they had to take a wicked poo or something, what's the problem? They didn't AFK from the actual game. I'll take someone dodging cause they don't wanna play instead of a real AFK all day long.

I don't know exactly how it works. But from what I've seen, if you fail to select a champion, you eventually start being assigned timer delays before you can queue again. The first one is five minutes. I don't know after that. I can only guess that if you have so many in a time frame, they increase in size. If you do this in ranked, you lose LP.

I personally would like to know why, when people decline, they make you wait out the timer. Wouldn't it make more sense to just end the wait timer and continue the queue immediately when people decline?
