Ban for afk farming?

I'm wondering if I could report someone for just afk farming all game in midlane. Like I get if they are behind, they should stay in lane but been playing games where people watch our inhib get taken for free solely on the basis of farming. The thing is these champs aren't even stackers like Nasus and Veigar etc. It's become a game of 4v5 as even my island top laners roam more and help in teamfights more than my midlaners. Can this be like an option for a ban or maybe something like not cooperating or helping your team?

Depends. Simply AFK farming itself isn't punishable, it requires context.

Are they farming to the exclusion of all else, including your base being taken and a fight going on right next to them? If so, yes. If they're just AFK farming but there's not some total and absolute reason they should stop doing that that instant and do something else (i.e. your nexus turrets are being taken), then no.

Nope. They removed the "lack of skill" report a long time ago. And even when it was around there was no punishment for it.

I'd rather have an afk farmer on my team than a feeder or anything else.

You can work around an "afk farmer." Not a feeder
