Internet went out and was unable to rejoin game, got a 6 hour penalty.

Is there anyway I can get that lowered? I'm sorry if this is too much to ask, I just want to not be penalized for my internet crashing mid game. Again sorry if this is the wrong place to put this, I'm very new to this forum and couldn't find any support.

Small thing, I was able to rejoin, but I had already received the penalty.

Well, if your internet connection crashes constantly, you kind of join the matches knowing you will leave your team at disadvantage, so I say the penalty is deserved. You wouldn't get a 6 hour ban if you didn't disconnect all the time. Most bans are minutes long.

Sort your issues if you want to play comp pvp mate, why should people who leave, regardless of the reason, have reduced penalties? I wouldn't want a guy in my team to leave mid game. It's only fair that you get banned if you knowingly throw people's games.

It doesn't constantly crash is the thing. I don't knowingly throw other peoples games, I try my best and my internet crashed mid game. I genuinely want to try my best and play the game but when the penalty for my internet crashing is 6 hours it really hurts ya know.

I understand but you have to consider that your team does not get a substitute player when you leave. You should try to sort your internet issue with your local internet provider. Call a hotline or something like that. I don't know your specific circumstances, I have no ill will, but please try to actually fix it if you can. Even if your cooldown gets reduced once or twice, if your internet crashes again, and again, there is no point in this entire affair is there? I used to have a problem with faceit in csgo couple years back, had to actually put an effort to fix it with the provider, and never had any issues again.

Good luck mate.
