@RIOT HARSHER PUNISHMENT FOR AFK AND GRIEFERS IN RANKED

Vanjie··5 votes·1,496 views

I can understand someone having technical difficulties and dcing. It's usually not a problem if they come back. When the player screams they cannot JG and then asks our JG to trade with her so she can ADC, then that players leaves . . . . the game on purpose . . . . yeah. It is ridiculous the amount of players that DC, leave the game because they did not get their way, don't know how to play and then blame others. If a player goes AFK or leaves the game and doens't return after a few minuets, they need to have an automatic ban from ranked for three days. If it repeats then it should be seven days. If it happens again then they need to be banned from ranked games for a said amount of time . . . maybe a month or something. I and most players can have sympathy for people that have internet or computer issues, but they need to understand . . . that they are playing a ranked game. 90% of them already know they have computer or internet problems and que up for ranked games anyways. I had a guy last month dc 15 times and then just give up.

There needs to be harsher punishment for players that DC or leave in a RANKED game. I don't believe they should be banned from the game . . . just ranked games. If they have three or seven days maybe they can take that time to fix what is wrong with their internet or computer. Most of the time though it is because someone is not getting their way.

I am not playing ranked anymore until 2016. All of the little college and high school kids are playing right now. The drama and afks are ridiculous. I climbed from Bronze IV to Bronze II and now I am back down to Bronze IV. I usually have the LEAST amount of deaths and most of the time most kills. What happens? I or someone else has to go to their lane to pick up their slack.

I just had a Tryn that decided to go to a convenience store before he qued for ranked. He came back ten minuets later and the damage was already done. He fed three times and then proceeded to blame me.

As a person who started from Bronze 5 and now in mid-Silver, I applaud your effort and wish you good luck on climbing the climb. [slayer-pantheon-thumbs] I know the struggle >_>

It's ok. There are more important things in life than this to be upset about. :D

You are still in the struggle my friend, gotta get through gold before you can even start to hope for something better.

You're right on that, lol. Better than Bronze at least. My side-goal for this season is to get to gold at least, I guess.

You can still win 4 on 5.

Typically the entire team goes negative and we lose. Everyone blames each other and instead of fighting the enemy they spend their entire time arguing. If the problem didn't happen to begin with then their wouldn't be a problem. Most players, bronze at least, know they have internet issues or other responsibilities. Don't que in a RANKED game if you know there is a problem.

Never heard of bugsplat or any of the many problem with riot servers?

Yeah. That is why I said that sometimes it is not their fault. A player shouldn't be banned for leaving a game or getting kicked out one or two times. After three or four times then it is an issue. The majority of the time from what I have experienced, it is people who admit they are having problems with their computer or internet or just leave because they have other obligations. I mean if you could see the ridiculous things I have read in game . . . . "I went to go make a pizza." or "I decided to got to the store before the game popped up."

"I can understand someone having technical difficulties and dcing. It's usually not a problem if they come back. But if we lose you can bet your ass I'm gonna blame the whole thing on them and report them for AFK anyway."

I was just reading between the lines.

I believe that Lyte said they are working on a system where the player who goes AFK gets punished more and the players who staying lose less LP. I can try and find it if you want.

Lol, they already get permabanned I'm not sure how much harsher Riot can be. Are you wanting them to send someone to go rough them up IRL mobster styel?

Vanjie1 votes

Honestly I don't think permabanning their account is right. They should be banned from ranked ques. If it is a problem that persists and they do nothing about it, then yes they should be banned from the game.

@Riot

I am just SO SICK OF IT. EVERY GAME SOMEONE DC AND THEY DON'T COME BACK OR THEY DO COME BACK. They expect people to drop everything in their lanes, after they have to pick up their slack, and help them. I am sorry. I can deal with it once and a while but EVERY GAME TODAY ONE OR TWO PEOPLE HAVE LEFT AND NOT RETURNED OR RETURNED AND BLAMED US.

The Gragas had the nerve to say he saved the game for us when he went afk for seven mins and their JG was ganking by then or putting pressure on us. Like seriously so many games where players leave, create drama, you call them out on it and they get offended, or they know they have internet or computer issues and QUE in a ranked game. Like seriously? Now I am on board with a perma ban.

Vanjie1 votes

So since today and yesterday I have had 12 people AFK and leave the game. Please implement something that gives harsher punishment plz.
