Firedize··1 votes·2,474 views

I just recently got a leaver buster LPQ and it wasnt my fault. In no way was i tilted i was actually doing quite well in the beginning of the game. Then my ping spiked to 60000 and we lost. I did the Lag report and it literally said i had a score of 0. If a riot employee wants to see proof of my 0 connection score lmk

it still had the same affect on your team, which is why intentional and unintentional afks are treated the same

riot will not remove a leaverbuster under any circumstances

okay, so you can maybe explain that one "emergency" time. What about all the other multiples afks before that one to even trigger LPQ?

Leavebuster has some leeway built in before it starts hitting you with LPQ. If you're having enough unintentional leaves/afks to trigger the LPQ without ever intentionally leaving it's still a problem you need to fix for the sake of your team.

If you have this happen frequently enough to trigger leaverbuster, you're still fucking over your teams, intentionally or not. It won't hit you with a penalty after one or two games, so it doesn't punish you for something like a transformer on your street blowing out, or your internet cutting out one time, or a real-life emergency. But if you have a consistently inconsistent internet connection, you need to sort that out before queuing up.

Okay, there's that, but what about the people who can't sort it out? Say someone's internet access is cut off frequently (3-5 times a week?) by another person in the household, and they were never warned. The first person goes to talk to them about their situation, but the second shrugs it off and says, "maybe you shouldn't have been playing that dumb game in the first place." That would trigger most people, I know, but they just want to play the game in peace.

it is still not okay to make that person's personal problem becomes that of 9 other people problem.

To that, there's nothing to say to that person but "sucks to be you."

You can't allow someone who is consistently greatly harming 4 other people's chance to win because they keep queuing with connection problem they know they have to keep queuing into PvP games.
