Rant isn't working. So, let's replace it with a "Fake Gameplay" board.

This is half-joking and half-serious. But since there are still many people who will incorrectly rant in Gameplay, it seems fitting that we create a Gameplay board where you can post all the lies about numbers that you want.

It'd be the place for drastic exaggerations that don't even come close to the real numbers, threads with evidence that totally contradicts the claim being made, and things of that nature.

'Cause as it stands, there is no "correct" board for spreading false information.

seems like u want to undermine the Rant section what people post in rant is not inherently WRONG

it just means it has a ranty nature and is less likely to get deleted by mods be thankful that we are blessed with two boards sections that are semi immune to mods irregular activities and deletions not make fun of it because you don't like some gameplay threads

I merely want the information people see to be factual.

what information? i didn't know boards was a book or a guideline thought it was a place for discussions and disagreements are common do u want everyone to agree on everything then the rest of them blindly upvote?

You misunderstand.

I'm not saying I want agreement across the boards. But you cannot have a discussion if you don't have your facts straight.

then some people will "straighten" these facts in comments or recongize they are wrong still don't see the problem

It's not a problem as long as the original poster fixes it in the original post.

But far more often than not, they don't.

I specified in my own comment everwhere the poster was wrong, and they changed nothing.

There's also the problem of people who wait until after the post has 70+ upvotes to fix something that was mentioned early on.

these threads are kinda old

the thing is if someone doesn't want to change their initial statement that means they don't agree with you, you can't force them to change it cuz it's their post

for example the talon post, he complains about talon damage at lvl 2 being too high well that might or might not be true regardless of the fact that ryze was greedy and made multiple mistakes so the post gets upvoted

also zoe complaint thread will get upvoted regardless of its content

No, that's not the issue dude.

If someone is LYING about FACTS in their original post, it is not a matter of agreement.
