you should make a way to turn off auto fill. i hate playing jung and would rather wait longer then have to be auto filled and dodge.

Fill is fine. Hell I run Fill.

the op is talking about the autofill system currently in place, not the role fill

if you are unfamiliar with it the basis of autofill is that while you can choose 2 roles to play, you will always have a chance (unless you have autofill protection) to get slotted into a different role (usually jungle or support)

and to the op

riot has already spoken on this to some degree, please do a bit of research before making a post like this

here is a small part of the discussion in question "Autofill was introduced as a last resort way of ensuring people didn’t sit in queues for ridiculously long stretches."

that is the link to the article, the first question asks about this

tl;dr without autofill in place, queues would be at a bare minimum 3 times longer

Im fully aware of What Auto Fill is. Im saying that he could actually learn to play every role. And if you run Fill as your secondary you never have to worry about auto fill because you are already expecting to get filled.

Really the only people I ever hear complain about Auto Fill are Mid/ADC/Top Player. And of that group mostly just Mid/ADC. Maybe move out of your comfort zone and play other roles.

the issues though is that each role often requires a different mind set/play style and not everyone is suited for every role

I have tried to learn how to jungle and I understand how to; I just can't i'm beyond horrible at the role so I rarely run it (thankfully I rarely get it as well via autofill)

Is funny, China/Korea/EUW are probably the only places where autofill doesn't really suck, because they are the most played regions - I am from EUW and whenever i play on my main server i feel like everyone is giving 100%, when i check their profiles, they are all most of the times on their main role, so since EUW is 3rd most popular region after China & Korea (correct me if am wrong) i feel like the same will be going on these servers.

But when i play on NA/EUNE/Turkey/etc the smaller regions where the playerbase is notable smaller, i keep getting so many autofills is insane, and many games they get something like: My support mains ADC, my ADC mains support. SOOO many times, they just accept it, even tho they can just swap roles, they just give up, not even bring it up since it happens so often. Is indeed insane, and there should be an option to check before a game: disable auotfill for my entire team - this may cause games to be found more rarely.

EXAMPLE: The amount of times i got autofill in EUW was really close to 0, can't remember when i got auotiflled last time On the other hand: I remember 2 months ago, there was this thing going on in EUNE where i would get my main role 1 out of 3 games. 1 - main role, 2-secondary role, 3rd- unlucky, your autofill protection is only up for 2 games and promors.
