You can't explain that.

alternatively you could explain that as saying that you wasted 21 games x 9 players x 20 minutes = 3780 minutes = 63 manhours, at a rate of 10$ an hour = $630.
your punishment of 24 manhours is minor.


Personally I think the 3900 man hours that I've chosen to use to grace this game with my presence should outweight that number.

That you've played 1300 games doesn't make it "ok" to leave games.

LeaverBuster is designed such that a low rate of leaving is excusable as aspects out of your control do happen. Deliberate leaving is supposed to be punished, and the way it's implemented isn't to give people who play a lot freebies--but rather if there's enough leaving in a short time, it's clear that it's deliberate and not uncontrolled factors.

Deliberate leaving shouldn't necessarily be punished. I'd like to hear the justification from the person who said it's supposed to be punished.


Under what circumstances do you believe deliberately leaving a game shouldn't be punished?


Well on the other hand, there can be extenuating circumstances that can't be fairly evaluated... If my power goes out for the next 15 minutes, it looks the exact same as not planning for a full game or being a rage-quit. Not to say it should go unpunished, but it should be unevenly enforced.
Remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

I'm not entirely certain how accidental issues resulting in a leave is even remotely relevant in a discussion about deliberate, intentional leaves.

Your circumstance is already filtered out in the current system, which generally punishes players for "clusters" of leaves in their games (a higher density of leaves more probably indicates intentional leaving then accidental causes because it's unlikely a player will continue to try to play throughout persistent technical problems on their end).

Every single game I've left has been because of internet going out, power going out, or me legitimately needing to leave at that moment without warning. I think out of 2k games I've left like 5-10. zzzz
Even if I'm batshit raging cause I'm in a pissy mood and things are just going really bad, I more or less just go into afk solo q farm mode instead of actually leaving the game. Cause I think leaving is so stupid. :|
Now what's the excuse of people who have 50+ leaves out of under 1k games?

Probably like that for most people. I think I have 15~ leaves and I guarantee at least like 13 maybe all 15 were DC.

Whatever excuse you have for leaving a game, it punishes the other four people on your team and takes away at least 20 or more minutes of their life. If you have some sort of life commitment you should have planned for it, or if it's a one time thing you're not going to get punished for it. If you're leaving games because you want to spite your team or because they won't surrender, you're going against why there's a 4/1 vote for surrender.

Do you have a quote/link with the precise wording?

Under what circumstances do you believe deliberately leaving a game shouldn't be punished?

emergency, there's no victim, technical problems that significantly worsen the game (lag, bugs, etc) that the leaver isn't responsible for, evening the teams (opponent had leaver), victim of significant griefing

basically, when things out of your control ruin your game, you should have the right to leave it. and when your leaving doesn't fuck anyone over, you should have the right to leave. and then there's the extreme situations (emergency) when you should be able to leave because you have a really good reason

Leaves are typically not tracked when compensation mode is enabled to do serves fuckin' up. It's true that the client sometimes craps out, but I've never (in like 1700 games) had a game where I couldn't get back in because of Riot's client.

Sometimes you lose internet or power or have a family emergency, but these are all rare events. If it happens enough that you're appearing in tribunal / getting suspensions, then you should be re-evaluating when you're choosing to play the game.

That said, leaving to "even teams" is still griefing your own team. You're actively making a decision that hurts your team's chance to win. If you leave a game you're griefed, you can't report them. You should just screw around until it's over and then put in the report so they'll end up banned. Otherwise, they win.

I watch all streams. Some of the streamers get butthurt over everything (HotShot and Dyrus) while some are really chill for a MOBA player (Dan and Westrice) but in almost every single game, there is always at least one, usually more who bitches and whines like a little kid at the store who cannot get his Captain Crunch.
And all the QQ sometimes makes me wonder if many Liquidites have fun.

High Elo is a lot more fun than lower Elos. High Elo has a lot less players so you know almost everyone. Makes it a lot more fun~
