Riot's changes and You. Time needs to occur, always.

So I've been reading some of the board's posts lately, good ol' raging about Kalista's passive, Lee sin haters, and etc etc etc. Well I feel I needed to make this post to address something, when a post is made and then 20+ more posts about the similar or exact same thing comes in like only a couple days, and then people get angry over the fact that riot may "ignore" these posts is fairly off. Riot's commenters may not always respond to each one but the thing is they atleast know about them. So now Kalista is getting tweaked because her mobility is way too much. But that's the thing all this takes time and people need to be patient. That mostly what I wanted to say with this post, with new changes or if something is wrong, RIot needs to take time to think about it all and so it alllllll takes time. Zilean

The problem, as you say, is people feel ignored. If there was some indicator to show that a post has even been viewed by a Riot member, people would feel less angry. Sure, they'd still complain, but they wouldn't feel outright ignored. This only gets worse when they release a patch with as little content as 5.3, when there's so much that needs to be worked on in the game.

Yea, not all posts are replied to as well, that'd be cool for some indicator of like whoever looks at the posts. But yea they have all these things they need to do but it's like some "fixes" for champions like Kalista wouldn't really work at all. So they need to constantly think about all this to come up with some way to make them better. Like with the "New" veigar, I kind of like the changes to where he can't just insta stun, and yet he will deal just as much or more dmg. Things like that are good but yea they take time. You may wanna try and get that sort of indicator or list of recent views to a post btw, it's a pretty cool idea. May calm some people down.Zilean Zilean

It's like in the patch notes when they say "We're aware that _____ is problematic." It lets you know that they know, you just have to be patient. It's different when I say something like "Moonflair Spellblade needs to build out of Negatron Cloak again. item 3104 should only grants 20% crit chance. If even a single person at Riot paid attention to maps aside from SR, these would've been fixed a month ago." Because those aren't in the majority of player's complaints, but they're extremely easy fixes that only haven't been done already because of sheer laziness. Don't make multiple maps if you don't support them all.

Yea the most popular is summoner's rift. They may not support all other maps as much but they still sorta tweak em once in a blue moon. and the different game modes are still nice. 3v3 is still supported a fair amount though because of ranked so you still see updates for it. As long as they know what's wrong, they can take their time for all I care lol.
