Has anyone noticed that Riot practically ignores the creative side of the boards?

Nowadays at least, Look at the red tracker if you disagree. They rarely interact with player concept posts, even if not to just drop in a "hmmmm interesting."

It honestly feels like they pay more attention to the sub reddit than thier own boards. I'm not expecting any improvement, but mayb oneday they'll merge us with the reddit page so we can get some dev-player feedback.

Like I know that half of the creative community got killed off with the changes made to the client that make editing league replays helll (look up rossboomsocks the day league comedy died) but god damn it would be nice....

Riot interaction with Concepts & Creations and/or Streams & Videos is something that would be great to see more of, certainly, but it's not like they're ignoring that in favor of Reddit, because we don't see a lot of interaction from them on Reddit-based creative works either. To some extent I think it's simply that there's so much creative work out there compared to the number of Rioters, let alone the number of Rioters with free time to spend chatting with the community, and to some extent I think it's that Riot gets blamed for stealing ideas all the time (almost always by people who don't understand how long development takes, or how similar ideas created entirely separately can be when they deal with existing themes and/or concepts), and visible interactions on community content just increases that chance. So it's an awkward situation, sadly.

The subreddit is significantly more intelligent than the boards.

Note how the boards are more or less just all the mad kids that never found reddit.
