Boards Suggestion!

How do you guys feel about Individual sub-sections for Roles/Rank.

For example having a Boards Sub-Section for // top laners // mid laners // etc,

and also for Platinum Rank // Diamond Rank // etc,

Seems simple enough, and would help a lot IMO. ------------------------------ Reasoning ---------------------------------------

It would be useful for many reasons.

I hate posting in the 'Gameplay' section just because everybody that replies to my thread is usually silver or below..

I hardly get someone that is my Elo/knows what they are talking about replying to my threads..

the only people posting are people that have never experienced higher elo play and make comments based off their experiences/knowledge (which is not helpful for seasoned players)

So separating those boards, I believe would have a positive impact.

Also for Roles Sub-Section..

It would be useful to have a sub section for people that main a certain role.. Just so inexperienced players may seek help/advice from someone that mains the role instead of getting useless advice from people that have no idea what they are talking about.

I feel like the Boards Sub-Section Expansion would bring a bit more of the community to the boards. People will seek more help/advice from the boards instead of heading to reddit or youtube (which makes sense since this is the official boards of LoL) . I understand that higher tier subboards will have less activity, and I don't suggest making it rank-restricted for comments(only for topic making). Of course you'll get lower-elo players commenting still, but over-all you'll be creating various small communities where people of the same skill are interacting. This would be a good start in re-creating small communities in the vast LoL community(kinda like clubs, or chat rooms in old client). I mean I can see your worry about this falling apart, but over-all I think this will have a positive effect on the boards & community.

How do you think this segregation would help, especially with ranks? I don't see any benefit to splitting the Boards up based on rank, and people can just make advice threads in Gameplay for the different lanes.
