The Problem With Low Priority
I got sent to low priority because my computer did a force reset for an update. So after that one abandon I am in low priority for 5 games. And since I am in low priority for such a stupid reason, honestly I have no more ♥♥♥♥♥ to give. I have been being paired with people not in low priority and am trolling, feeding, and purposely losing because I don't want to be in low priority anymore. I have also been going afk fro 4 minutes, moving a little, afk, then moving again until the game ends, and honestly it isn't bad or a waste of time; I'm surfing the web as I do it. The problem with low priority, is low priority itself; it is stupid. I remember when low priority wasn't around, I was %100 fine with that, IMO the longer wait time is good, just add more to the wait each time someone abbandons, but the being forced to play low priority matches is stupid and gives normal priority people more losses. And I know someones going to post "you are in low priority because you troll", no I'm not, but I am now.

you don't get into low prio after 1 abandon.. it's after several abandons or getting reported for feeding..

I like how you think it's not your fault that your pc did force reset.. it's something you can turn off, just so you knew.. and something you'd know by now while using your pc for a period of time..

from the looks of this post, you deserve low prio more than anybody I have ever seen.. literally, hope you stay there :D

Oh...this thread again...

Please OP. Try searching.
We get literally hundreds of posts like these every month all complaining about the same thing for the same reasons, and they all end the same way.

As far as I know you don't go to LP for one abandon. And yes, you do sound like a troll. That said, I sort of agree that some part of LP needs a rework. I barely ever end up in LP, but I play it with friends who are every now and then. And the maddening thing is that people always leave LP games, then they don't count, and you have to play another one ughh. I reckon it should be games OR time, whichever comes first. Unless it already is this and I don't know what I'm talking about... very possible

I wasn't a troll, and i didn't do anything prior to the low priority other than do the hero challenge. You guys are idiots lol. This isn't a rant, I'm just saying the problem with low priority and how it could be better/actually work. And can you guys not read? I just said I do troll now, so of coarse I sound like a troll, idgaf, I'm in low priority, I'm trolling now. atleast understand the concept of this post. Idk why you are all butthurt that I'm giving feedback on low priority...

don't flatter yourself.. you were one from the beginning, the only difference now is that everybody can see it

w/e I'm out now, i just went 0:30:0 last game, and honestly it was fun, while in low priority, I dont mind ruining peoples scores, also you are too butthurt kid, feedback is feedback, I'm just saying why it sucks compared to what it was before, this isn't aimed at making me seem reliable or anything, just aiming to prove why it is dumb. And you are right, just because you said I was a troll before this, that automatically makes you correct. You have had sexual intercoarse with mice and deer your whole life (not in a creepy way, its just how you were brought up as a child). I said it so its true, nothing you say can take back the fact that you do that.

you didnt read it did you lol, It isn't a rage, I'm just trolling and its fun, it was better before where you had to wait longer, how it is now is just a fun way to ruin peoples win/loss scores that arent in "LP" (you could just type out the full word)

Low priority is for people like you who feel like they don't want to properly play the game. It is working as intended.

You know in low priority I can play with people in normal priority too right? Even if i couldnt it isn't a punishment like it is intended to be, the adding on to the time it takes to find a game was far more effecient because it kept the people from playing. I feel like you are trying to prove a point, but you arent proving anything, everyone just comments that the people deserve to be in low priority, ok? I didn't troll before low priority, but in low priority i do troll. I dont understand how i can explain this better. also your icon is very emo looking are you gothic or something?

All I see is that you rage, and don't want to play properly.. hence you in low prio.. the more you act the way you do, the longer you will be in low prio.. so same as Giggles stated, it's working as intended.. seperating players like you from players who actually want to have fun in the game

You got punished because you abandoned. But instead of dealing with it like an adult you rather just throw a fit and cry. You think that it's stupid to get punished for doing something wrong. You think that you should be free from from any punishment. You think that a time based punishment is a good idea.

The problem isn't low priority, it's you.
