/Remake

Just had a game where I D/Ced from Riot server while loading in. I immediately loaded in and the vote started like 5 seconds later. 2 votes for, 2 votes agianst (1 me obvi) and there goes game 1 of my series AND LB decided to give me a 20 minute Q time on top of it. For Riot's server screwing me over.

Honestly, something needs to be done here Riot. The Remake option is way over the top and not only waste people's time but unfairly punishes people that aren't really AFK. I was back before the 3 minute mark and I still get double punished for an AFK. Basically 2 people voting yes decides that I lose LP and I get in a 5 game AFK queue.

At the very minimum please make the vote require 3 votes if 5 people are connected. The time needs to be extended as well to 5 minutes to give people a reasonable amount of time to reconnect. Either that or don't start the game unless all 5 connect. This isn't rocket science and people shouldn't get screwed over because of issues with Riot's servers. It's unreasonable for someone to get punished for being AFK less than 3 minutes while normally you don't get an AFK unless you're gone for 5 minutes.

Thanks,

OneMustFall

I have noticed this where you can still remake once the disconnected player reconnects, it just needs to be fixed so that it stops once you reconnect and maybe have a longer time before you can start the vote.

nothing needs to be done,if you dont have the proper equipment to play ranked,a decent computer and a stable internet connection then dont play ranked i would have done the same if i was in lbs position,i cant risk having a teamate that disconnects and recconects the entire game.

Unless these connection issues are happening to literally everyone playing, or at the very least a large majority of players, the problem is more than likely on your end, not Riot's.

Now, if you received the 20 minute Low Priority Queue form Leaverbuster, that means you have been leaving/disconnecting from a lot of games as that is not given out as a first punishment. You had to have gone through at least 2 other LPQ punishments before hand. If a lot of these leaves/disconnects are due to connection issues, unless the problem is on Riot's end (which it most likely isn't), it's up to you to find a solution for it. You shouldn't just keep queuing up hoping you don't disconnect.

You can make a post in the Help and Support board, or you can check out some of the guides Riot has on their support page, such as this one or this one. Hopefully you can find solutions for this.
