Riot response and communication

Riot's take one the Boards is that they don't respond, because they either can't handle it mentally or they feel threatened by us.

Except there are plenty of issues the boards point out that everyone is pointing out. Zoe is about to be what Camille was at the start of Summer Split, 99% banrate and picked in any role if possible. Bramble Vest and Thornmail are still allowing tanks to beat bruisers in 1v1s. Grasp and Aftershock are so overpowered that they deal more damage than damage keystones. Jayce, Xayah, and Kalista were near 100% pick or banned at worlds (Kalista being 100% banned) and have gone completely untouched. These are things high elo, not just the boards, are complaining about and Riot has done nothing to fix the issue. We know that data shows people complaining are right. OP.gg, League of Graphs, Champion.gg, or whatever your preferred source is can prove this. Pro play and Master+ Tier opinions; pro play statistics. The only person saying this isn't an issue is Riot DESPITE ALL EVIDENCE. I remember a rumor floating about Meddler having made up data about Sona being overpowered (heard about a month back, the occurrence was years ago). You think anyone should trust Live Design about their decisions and their acclaimed data when Kayle gets triple nerfed despite no proof of being overpowered by all 3 standards I gave and Riven being buffed despite being fine by all 3 standards I gave?

I literally gave a solid argument for why Riot is unprofessional. Now, rather than counter it, you want to call us unprofessional. We, the people, are not in a position to require to be professional. Even when we are we do not get a response. I ask three times why Kayle is getting double nerfed despite no proof under any standard of her being overpowered. No response and she gets an extra nerf. No one cared that Kayle was getting nerfed because Kayle isn't a popular champion, rather the opposite. That would be Riot bullying unpopular champions because they can get away with it. Who cares if Cactopus might have been right (I didn't pay attention to it), every other Rioter explanation is wrong. Sterak's is overpriced because it's as good as Black Cleaver. No! Kayle is nerfed for being overpowered. No! Fiora needs to be buffed because Bramble Vest is overpowered. No, nerf Bramble Vest! Ekko is good, so he needs to be better. No! Getting 1 correct answer out of 100 doesn't negate all of your wrong answers. You still failed the test badly.

Except for the boards never cared about Likkirit nor EULCS. That was Reddit thing. Riot never responded to nor acted upon those poor actions nor attempted to fix them. Now Likkirit is a martyr that died for a lost cause and EULCS is going to tank again.

I've made it fairly clear that they only strike down criticism when it gets to them. You didn't refute my argument, you just effectively said, "No. You're wrong." Meddler complaining about downvotes was just unprofessional and petty. No one can deny that. You also act like players don't know the data. They do. I've made that clear that players know data and how. Even if you agree with the statement that most players are an uneducated, stupid mass, you cannot deny that the 30+ people I can recall are perfectly able to use data and give a meaningful discussion. That's not even counting high elo like Wickd, Hashinshin, ICU, Tarzaned, Dekar. Thing is, Riot doesn't listen to any these people. They don't debate, discuss, or even converse at all. These high elo players play more League games in a day than the entire Live Design team plays in a week combined. They don't have the experience to make wise decisions and changes they make can be proved wrong with statistics. You're telling me I shouldn't prove Riot wrong when they are wrong? You're telling me it is my fault they don't talk to people because they're tired of being wrong? Don't be wrong in the first place and don't be mentally incapable of being wrong; don't suck in the first place, learn instead, or don't have the job if you are unwilling to learn.

Are you seriously telling me it is the Boards fault for this happening? Let me give you an example. The country of France is ruled by a king. The King makes more decisions and wastes tax money on multiple castles and an unnecessary war. When people protested the idea of wasting money and lives in both these cases, the king and his advisors ignored them. They protested again and were ignored again. Now the King wants to raise taxes because the government is short on money. People protest and are ignored. Bread prices skyrocket and people are starving. People protest, asking for assistance. The greedy King, as usual, ignored them. No response, no discussion, nothing. The loudest protestors have been silenced and sent to prison. So, people decided to band together and begin acting violently. They stormed the prison to free their friends and gather weapons. They took the King and his wife captive and executed them shortly later. Every issue the people complained about was a serious issue that was very obvious and could be proven. Who is at fault for the beginning of the French Revolution? The King is; he is the one who decided to ignore issues rather than solve them. That is Riot right now. There are issues they are refusing to respond to and refuse to fix. People before were protesting as usual, but now they're pissed. No more waiting for empty promises; people want action and will take it if they have to.

I've said it before, the only way Riot fixes the situation is them acting because it is their fault. Maybe instead of talking down to people, they talk with people like I said before.
