I want to start off with:
A. I got a previous penalty (5 mins) cause I had to focus on business stuff real quick and got booted from a game because I AFK'd for 15 seconds. (Very harsh for a first time)

B. No, it did not give me a warning, nor was I doing anything to provoke getting a penalty. As the title says, I was simply waiting in the VS screen for the match to start.

C. I received a couple 'Error' messages during a couple games that booted me out of the match before and wonder if this may have contributed.

I looked away for about a minute while the game *SHOULD* have been loading the match. I thought it was weird with how long the game was taking to load, only for the screen to turn black and boot back to the war map with a 15 minute penalty. Can I not get penalized because there was an error??

Hi Chocolate_Latte,

Thank you for reporting this to us, we're sorry to hear that's occurred.

The Abandonment system is automatic, and so it does not take into account context around the reason for leaving or failing to join a game.
