Leaverbuster Really needs a rework

TheRealSqu1lliam··2 votes·447 views

So i have times when i rage at league of legends right? we all do sometimes. But there needs a better option to LEAVE the game before you break your 1000$ computer.. can the damn leaverbuster make is where its a period where you Cant hit the que button for a week so you can calm down?? instead of hitting the que button and waiting 30 minutes to get into another game i think its stupid like that. they should just have a couple hour bans or a day ban if so. i dont get why League has this leaverbuster Soo broken. if i rage at the game id rather try to Take breaks then to get sucked back in. and dont tell me to not rage at the game. its not easy at all to stay calm during a Stressful game... i bet alot of people have experienced this same situation.. im just tired of it i just wanna leave games and actually get punished for it. (only because i get mad and i need a break before i continue....) also another game THE GAME SHOULD NOT FORCE YOU TO STAY IN-GAME THATS DICTATING. anyways (((((THIS IS ALL OPINIONATED)))))

you need control your emotions and stop getting influenced by the media thinking smashing computers in rage is a cool thing to do.

TheRealSqu1lliam1 votes

controlling your emotions is harder then you think when your allready angry... Especiialy with anger issues.

Kei1432 votes

then that isn't riot's problem to solve.

You should go see a therapist instead.

No. We never do. Only a very tiny portion of players ever leave their games.

you would be surprised of how many games people actually rage but keep playing and ending up getting so angry they cant control themselves (me for example)

Yeah, there is this thing called self control. You should give it a try.

You are basically experiencing issues that make you want to leave the game. I hear you. But be aware that you leaving the game causes issues for everyone around you, especially if you're doing it across multiple games. You basically harm 4 people per game (and to be honest it's not fun for the enemy team either). I guess you feel like League of Legends should accommodate you for what you're experiencing, however, that request is a bit unreasonable. Leaving punishments exist to protect everyone's right to have a fair game without the unfair disadvantage of people leaving their game.

I recommend that you outsource this issue and seek help outside the game. Depending on what's available to you that may be a counselor, a psychologist or a psychiatrist (don't ever be ashamed about seeking professional help and opinion, even if you feel like the issues you're experiencing are very common).

Ok but heres the thing. im not saying to Get rid of the leaverbuster im saying it should ban you for 7 days or a month. not the 20 minute waiting for que BS. i understand i gatta take breaks. i understand i get angry at the game. I should take full responsiblity. but the fact remains that i have no control over my anger. and im aware that im going to get flamed for leaving. but would you rather have me break something or simply leave? ill have you figure it out youself. (keep in mind i do have fun. i dont get fustrated THAT much. but when i do id rather walk away then to stay in the game and rage my ass off while my mom has to hear the damn agony of me smashing my keyboard.) if you ever play CSGO you know how you leave a game it gives you a 30min/2hr/24hr/7d ban? id rather have that then to wait 20 minutes (Especially with friends) just to get into a game. 5 times... and honestly id rather wait the whole week to play again then to do that. you see what i mean?

Look, a game is a game, and we can discuss all day whether leaver buster punishments should be changed (overwhelming majority of people think they shouldn't, some demand harsher punishments), but the fact remains that this is not something that is not going to affect your other (arguably more important) areas of life. That's why I said reach out to a professional, if you're not old enough talk to your school counselor (or psychologist, or sociologist, or if you don't know who to reach out to and feel comfortable even your grade teacher).
