We need Rune Icons https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/f/f2/Lethal_Tempo_rune.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/64?cb=20171126182145 https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/f/f2/Lethal_Tempo_rune.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/64?cb=20171126182145 https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/4/46/Fleet_Footwork_rune.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/64?cb=20171126182047 https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/2/20/Conqueror_rune.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/64?cb=20180314225947

and the lesser runes https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/6/69/Overheal_rune.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/64?cb=20170926021504 ... I'm not going to go through all of them, ... (it's a pain in the ass to add these)

It would also be really nice if moving my mouse over the icon in a post would give me the same pop-up description of the item as it does when I'm creating a post.

For the most part, I can identify items by the icon alone, but not everyone can, and some things are hard to identify.

For example item 3003 Archangle's Staff item 3007 Archangel's Staff (Quick Charge) Sure, the little brackets in the corners would let me know, but those can be pretty easily overlooked.

These Boards are not actively developed, and virtually unmoderated to boot.

Also, replacing actual words with those little icons is bad.

Rune icons are probably part of a Runes Database somewhere in Riot's LoL API. They have already attached their champs, items, summoner spells, and stickers? they'd just need to take it a step further by adding Runes. Though easy to speak of may not be as easy in execution so give the devs some slack.

As far as icons for (quick charge) effectslike Archangel's Staff, Rod of Ages, etc. Those have been in League since Dominion came out, to let summoners know that in Dominion, games tend to be about 15-20 mins long, therefore required certain items like Rod of Ages (which maxed out in 10 minutes) to max out faster.

I would like to see updated icons though. I'm still miffed that Sapphire Crystal wasn't updated but Ruby Crystal was..
