Stronger Bans for AFK

Can we please have some kind of stronger punishment system for people who have bad connections or leave the game.

I know the reason why we don't do this is because we don't want to hurt the "growth" of the community, however i just dropped a full rank due to players who are completely inactive during a game, or feed and leave.

Wasting not only hours of my game time, but causing severe frustration for having to gain back ground i shouldn't have lost because of imbalanced teams.

Losing LP due to bad gameplay is much more acceptable than a 5v4 fight.

what. what. what.

I'm sorry a FUCKING THUNDERSTORM cut out my electricity and internet, alright? I'm playing on my hotspot. see, things happen, Straight afk at the start of a game can be remade, and poor connection isn't Riots problem, their internet might be poor, but they still can do what they want.

How many times would you have to dc before Riot takes action?

What if something happens and you have no choice but to leave?

Why should someone be punished for having no choice but to leave a game?

Sure, if it's very clear the person inted and left, but sometimes people leave or don't connect because something came up/happened and they had no choice but to leave the game.

And honestly, the system does pretty well at getting people who constantly leave games.

The solution should be norms and ranked have different penalties.

Keep the soft penalties for norms, so people can play.

Add more strict penalties for ranked. Bad connection? just dont play ranked.
