Rise of the AFK

I feel like it is becoming an issue again. I played 3 games when i got on. The first one was a loss, the second one: people kept queue dodging (better than getting in a match and then they go afk, but it happened 7-8 times). This match was a loss and our support gave the enemy bot lane a kill and then left the game and never reconnected. I think well whats the odds of it happening two games in a row well it happened again.. This time the ADC.

TL;DR: AFKs seem to be on a rise again and what is to stop them when they don't care. I know that sometimes there are just hardware failures or power outages or even service interruptions but it seems to happen to someone every match.

I only came to the forums to see if anyone else noticed the stupid amount of afks too lol. I mostly play ARAM, but I just lost 3 games in a row because of afks.

They really need to make the punishment tougher. I don't care what peoples excuses are, if you afk more than say 3 times a year your account should be permabanned. I've been playing this game for 5 years and have only been afk twice.

If they are continuously AFK the Leave Buster will continue to punish them. If you enter the queue you are saying "Yes im 100% committed to the game". Leave buster cannot tell whether they leave on purpose or if its accidental but I assure you Leave Buster does work as intended.
