THERE NEEDS TO BE *(manual from menu)* DC PENALTIES!!!!!!!!!

Have you played LOL before? Me too, it sucks. But they do one thing that I like, penalize people who bail on the squad! 4 games in a row yesterday, and so far 2 games today where people left the s...

    @SugondeeezBalls  Here's the thing, EVEN if they made it that leaving (without being fully dead) via ingame menu would give a "time penalty" to said player, players would then do exactly like in Dark Souls. In that game you are punished for leaving via the ingame menu, well guess what happened then? Leavers quickly learned new ways to leave without being punished and those ways cannot be caught (unplugging ethernet cable/closing wifi, ALT+F4, etc.) by the game. It's only a tiny itsy bitsy useless bandaid. It's a lost of time for the devs for something that will only work for maybe a day or two.

@TSF_VindictiV  @GrimyHR  I do know enough, but my friends in the tech world know all of it, I know enough from what they taught me over the years. Again, I really only care if people DC from the game menu.
The game menu lol

-Not power outage

-Not Alt+F4
-Not all the rest of your reasons

Having that alone shouldn't be too difficult to add in. 
It does not have to be after 1,2 or even 3 game exits, if someone were to bail on their team over and over and over again, I think EVENTUALLY there should be a penalty, no?
It's cool if you don't think so, I just want to clarify I only want code for 1 pathway. Not the list of things you provided cause I wouldn't care if someone lost power, * happens. I only give a * if someones just being an * and leaves his team behind mid game.
If someone wants to leave bad enough that they pull up task manager and force close, then they're done with the game anyway likely for the time lol But I'd wager that not everyone will think to do that if they wanna bounce.

    @TSF_VindictiV  Maybe you're right. 
    Idk, I'm trying to be open minded about it and solution oriented. In a perfect world I guess....

      @SugondeeezBalls  I can understand your frustration, I'v had it happen to me but it's still possible to win if you're only 2 squad members. 2 friends and myself played together this morning. One of my said 2 friends has a garbage internet and he completely lost connection during the ship dropping phase so we were stuck as a 2men squad only for the whole game. Well guess what? We actually managed to win! It was my only win of the day at that, but it was the most fun/exciting one of all my wins! I even took a screenshot cuz I couldn't believe that of all my games today, it was the one we won even though we were only 2!

        @TSF_VindictiV  You got that Shroud level skill eh? haha
        Yea it's possible for sure, just makes it a whole lots harder with randoms I find cause if 1 leaves then the other tends to bail (which I understand). I try to go solo from time to time, but I never get far.
