afking in the pug server

[Chrispy]

ive noticed that over the last 2-3 months there has been more freezing during pug matches due to players going afk and its starting to become a nuisance. I cant say I haven't frozen during gameplay a couple of times but for myself but I be sure I am respectful to the other players and never am gone for more than a minute. going afk for 3mins+ (up to 5 mins give or take at times) during matches is unfair to other players. games take long enough to get going to begin with, the last thing i want are more pauses when the game finally does start. i left a pug today after the 4th afk player during the match and was banned for it. it was the start of the third qtr and we have already been playing for 30-40 minutes at that point in the game. pugs with no pauses generally take about 30 minutes. i embrace the fact the admins are cracking down on people abandoning pugs but i feel going afk for an unreasonable amount of time during pug matches is unacceptable as well and should be dealt with. It waste just as much of everyones time as people that completely abandon the pug and force us to stop and find a replacemnt
