@Heralds: When some1 attacks other ppl in public he/she/it is accountable for what he/she/it says

I've been called a criminal, a manchild and have been welcomed to suicide by ppl who official speak for Riot and have been even defended while they were attacking any1 trying to have a decent discussion with them.

This golden rule of yours is rubbish if you cna't keep it inside your company walls. We've been here with lots of decent discussion that went completely unanswered but we as players are still enduring it while Riot should have been the first going down and silence both parties.

I feel offended, put at shame and threatened by the escalating hate that is being thrown against me since I made this horrbile crime of being born with male genitals and feel comfortable with it and I even happen to like females.

I'm not even defending what it has been erased because I used a word too much, but for everything that is holy in this universe... any1 defending Froskurinn or DZK is defending a fascist behavior because they are sustaining ppl who promote the idea that straight males that defend themselves from sexist acts (because sexism against males EXISTS) is only worth to die in a airplane turbine.

I'd like to clarify our position here. Firstly (and importantly), we're not Riot. We're board moderators. As such, our concern is the boards, not what happens outside the boards.

##Things the moderation team is NOT doing

  • Supporting the actions or any single individual or company.
  • Condemning the actions of any single individual or company.
  • Censoring opinions on either side of the conversation (save where the manner those opinions are expressed violates the board rules).

##Things the moderation team IS doing

  • Enforcing our rules against insults/attacks (that occur on the boards -- we don't control anything BUT the boards).
  • Enforcing our rules against social/political discussion (save where immediately relevant to the current situation).

Daniel Klein didn't officially speak on behalf of Riot. He was just stupid and used his real name for his Twitter, which made it easy to identify him as a Riot employee. He's just spewing his idiotic, toxic personal opinions, and because we know he works for Riot, it reflects badly that Riot hasn't publicly punished him yet for behavior players would get banned for in game. If he was spewing these opinions under a pseudonym like almost everyone else online where we wouldn't know his affiliation to Riot games, this wouldn't even be a problem.
