So, about the board changes.

Saezio··2 votes·2,344 views

I don't want to be negative. I don't want to say if it's a good or a bad change.

But I guess this is a work in progress?

Can someone inform us (the users) what is going on?

WILL we get the notification button back?

Is there a place I can see this information? (if so I will delete this thread and make one directing people there)

I skimmed other threads regarding this for mod comments to understand what's going on, but mods seem to be at a loss as well?

Have rioters even made a single comment about this?

Please come forward with any (valid) information on the matter. If we are supposed to stop using the boards we might as well know it.

cheers and have a nice day

Edit: Here is what we have so far:

This came as a shock to the rest of us on the Moderation team too and like GreenKnight quoted from Djinn, this wasn't a decision made by our volunteer Board Devs. Please continue to bear with us for the time being. I am just as anxious as you to get answers and we'll communicate with you guys when we get more information.

  • And the following was poster by The Djinn in another thread

The Volunteer team's board developers don't control all Riot site-related decisions, and can only work within the framework given to us. This wasn't Wuk's call (or ours) to make, so please bear with us as we try to figure out what our options here are.

Thanks a lot for the reply. I thought maybe you could have made a thread saying these things so users don't have to create a million posts of the same thing.

I'll let the team know this feedback

According to The Djinn, even boards developers had no say in this.

And i doubt we will hear anything from anyone at Riot, so...

Thanks for the quote mate. I just wanted to know if there is a point to continue using these boards or if riot have decided they only need the subreddit.

I didn't even think the riot team looked at the boards. And i just assumed mods are there for toxic or unrelated post clean up.

You can still get your notifications, but you have to go find them directly.

I know we can get to it through there. But the thing is, most people will not bother as much. So, I think it makes conversing with the other users harder. Will there be the same amount of people engaging if the button isn't there? That's my concern.

One of the points of this post was also to get as much information as possible about the transition in the same place, with as little negativity as possible. (because there were many posts that were like "WTF is happening, this is bullshit" etc)

So, thanks for including this link here, I'll edit the OP to contain this as well as some other valuable input from others :)
