As far as I know this is the right place to ask questions like this.

The penalty you have received will be forgiven in 60 days, until then it will be shown. But I don't think it will stop any players from playing with you as everyone can have connection problems sometimes and you having left one game really shouldn't be a deal breaker to play with you.

It sure doesn't feel good to receive it for the first time, but it happens to (nearly) everybody sometimes, for one reason or another. So don't worry too much about it, it will be forgotten later on and it doesn't matter too much right now
