More Severe Punishment For AFk's/No MMR Drop

Squeaker·Mar 19, 2017·1 votes·516 views

In my entire time playing League of Legends, which adds up to more than 2000 games, I've never once rage quit and maybe only had to AFK or leave out of two games. But it seems like every single day I have someone AFK on my team for one reason or another. I was just in a game up 5K gold around 20 minutes and TWO members of my team DC for no reason and we lose, there either need to be severe punishment for them or seriously reduced LP lose for me because that's just not fair to me. I could understand if you lose LP but can you at least not change my MMR based on games where someone on my team AFK's. I was on a 6 game win streak earning close to 25 LP per win and now my MMR is gonna drop quite a bit because I had an AFK. Simply not fair.

100 million accounts those users could just have their 1 or 2 afk games inside your game over their 2k games

tbf you signed up to play a game not to win a game whatever happens during that game is considered fair play Yes it sucks but riot can't force a user to not randomly dc or keep their isp from dropping them

IN the long run an afk is not is what is keeping you from climbing as you both suffer and benefit from afk/troll/feeders as everyone else does

Yes, it could be their 1 or 2 afk games inside his game but it could also be their 100th afk game. If you are going to address one point then you need to address the other point. Don't make excuses for these idiots who frequently AFK (for w/e reason) and ruin games. LPQ is a slap on the wrist and doesn't fix the real problem. If RIOT took a stronger stance on this BS then people would take more responsibility for this action and we would see less of it.

1st trip to LPQ = 10 game bot ban 2nd trip to LPQ =20 game bot ban 3rd trip to LPQ = 14 day suspension 4th trip to LPQ = account banned

That is more than enough to make people responsible. It's too much to be honest because some people are just stupid and will try and push boundaries as far as they can and don't care who they hurt.

The fact sometimes its outta peoples control as to why they dc, is why LPQ exists instead of a perma ban I think you're over punishing personally But we'll leave it to riot

Huge difference between frequent and seldom. LPQ only works for frequent. Your post is moot. Frequent AFK's/DC's need to eventually be banned after several trips to LPQ because people are too stupid or lazy to fix the problems they are having.

Don't quote me on this but I do think you can be punished past LPQ after awhile

Yeah never heard or seen anyone say that except right now. Would love to see proof of that actually happening. Highly doubt there is any.
