Where there any ancient civilizations that did not practice slavery or if did, had a more humane approach to slavery than their contemporaries?

Slavery is pretty much jailtime for Southeast Asian nigs. Here in Pre-colonial Philippines societies, you enter slavery when you get convicted by council of:
>failure to pay a debt.
>Stole something from the family that caused them financial ruin.
>Fucked a daughter of the family out of marriage and she ended up pregnant.
And other crimes I couldnt remember. But the fact of the matter is: no slavery is permanent. You're let go once your dues are paid in full. Either determined by law or by the family. If the family a dick you can tell the chieftain.
Being taken in war is another matter entirely though. People can sell you to the Chinese/Muslims/Indians.

I would definitely have to agree with Roman slavery, but only for some parts, and it really depends what time period you're talking about. Slaves did have a lot of options coming out of slavery though, as they had the ability to vote and partially participate in politics (only men from what I've read.
Quite a few slaves, however, dealt with incredibly harsh punishments for disobeying their masters. For example, 6000 rebel slaves were crucified along the Appian Way.
Slave life became a lot easier when Emperor Claudius came into power, and declared that any slave abandoned by their master was to be free. It also became easier when Nero gave slaves the right to complain about their masters in court.
But, overall, slavery in ancient Rome could be considered excellent when compared to what American slavery was for a long time.
