Punishing Trolls and AFKers

I don't know if anyone's had this idea before or not but I think Riot should consider deducting LP from trolls and AFK players only. Why should 4 other players get punished just because one person on the team lost their shit. LeaverBuster can catch players that go AFK. So why can't Riot implement a system where people who go AFK or feed lose LP whereas the other 4 don't lose any of it. This can improve the overall experience for players and stop a number of players from rage quitting and costing their team matches.

Yes, it has been thought of.

And suggested

And each time it has been explained to the person suggesting such a solution that this ultimately means a match unfortunate enough to have an AFK or a troll, would immediately become a open season. It would no longer matter if you even try to win because a loss means nothing.

oh well! I guess I'll just have to wait for the devs to come up with something better

Or figure a way to make your idea stronger? Its not that the idea itself is bad, just every time it's mentioned it never has a strong enough grasp on reality to be practical

how about if premades do this. The premades lose LP and if someone decides to "take one for the team" they should impliment a feature where the in-game chat log is checked and if a person is afking on purpose then they should come up with something better than just deducting his LP
