How come EU players can post on the NA boards, but NA players can't post on EU boards?

Everybody can post on the NA boards since they're considered the main boards and best place to get into contact with influential Riot members. I have no idea why there are region restrictions everywhere else.
Didn't know NA players can't post on EU boards, to be honest... My guess would be they never wanted to have either of the two, but decided to accommodate people from older days. You have to know that initially Riot didn't maintain the EU server themselves. And since it was maintained pretty badly (sometimes 2-3 patches behind) a lot of people from Europe still had their main account on the NA server. So some people (like me) have kind of grown accustomed to it, even when Riot took over the EU server.
Initially wasn't a problem, as there was no way to transfer accounts at that time, so people just continued using their NA account for the forums. But after that, people who had spend years on the NA forums, suddenly had no account on NA anymore.
So the short version is: There are more EU players who have an active interest in posting on the NA boards than vice versa.
Because this is where there is the most Riot presence. As has been mentioned, the company is located in the US, most of the developers live and work here, and there's simply more engagement.
NA not being able to post on the EU Boards is the result of technical limitations, despite what others may have insinuated in this thread.
i mean..why would you like to post on euw/eune in the first place?._.
our boards are getting less updates and love than NA does and i think NA's activity on the boards might be higher than euw's eng-page anyway.
also: our few riotlers won't be able to give you "more" answers (if thats what you are aiming for) .
Because nobody would ever want to post in EU. As poorly run and toxic as the NA boards are, they are still a shining city on a hill next to the EU boards lol.
Probably because its more convenient for Riot to check NA boards being that theyre based in Los Angeles - no such need exists for us to post on EUW
