remember when riot said we'd get solo queue back in a month?
well, they said that so you'd shut up and eventually forget about it. they banked on that.
lets prove them wrong, guys. i for one, dont have many friends who have a pc capable of even running league, let alone friends who were/are as devoted to it as i once was. there is no worse feeling than being a PUG(pick up group) forced against a premade, except maybe being the odd one out in your team that has a premade. I understand that you want people to bring their friends in to play, but this is NOT the way to do it. better RAF incentives/measures to counteract smurfing(Such as monitoring the IP address of raf accounts to ensure fraud isn't happening.) blizzard has an excellent system for monitoring IP addresses with WoW(they notice when a chinese IP logs into an account mostly played by a USA IP address.). league could very easily monitor false raf claims via smurf accounts through an automated system that looks at IP addresses if abuse is REALLY an issue.
_let's show riot why we're different from run of the mill sheep.. lets show them we're not drones who wont take this stupid dynamic queue lying down. we WANT solo queue back. we DON'T want to have to spend our precious time looking for people who have the same schedule and lifestyle as us that will group with us for dynamic queue.. we want a queue where the individual can still succeed. group play is nice, and i've played in full groups many times, but everyone has their own lives(or lack thereof in my case :P) to attend to. you can't expect to run a group every time for ranked. _
Riot has two options
A. stay on their current course, and lose a massive amount of active players
B. turn dynamic queue into the de facto team league queue, while incorporating the element of selecting your two preferred roles into it, thus bringing a lot of their lost players back, while keeping current players happy.
