@Riot, @Community, A list of things that I can't understand/think need help, in no particular order.

Soraka As the title says this is a list of things, I would love some conversation so by all means if you have an opinion start a thread.

  • Smurfing- How is this fun, regrinding all the things that took so long to get and ruining new players as a side effect.

  • Champion Reworks- When the majority of the champions fans are against an aspect of its rework, you should really talk to them about what they want, and then DO THOSE THINGS, at least in testing.

  • Toxicity and replying to it- If someone does something wrong explain kindly what they did wrong and what [in your opinion] they should have done, if they reply rudely [like an asshole] mute them, and if someone is toxic, MUTE THEM, its what it's there for.

  • Runes- Tiers 1 and 2 either need to be removed, runes unlock at 30, or make rune combiner cheaper/better, and runes in general could use a price decrease.

  • Off-Meta picks- If someone says they can go X champ in Y lane with Z summoners, with I suppose the exception of summoner 11less jungle, let them, trust it, and see how it works before you judge.

  • Troll picks- When you pick something you know is bad to spite your teammate for 'Taking' 'your' lane, or going an off-Meta pick please just save the other 9 people time and dodge.

  • Draft Normals- This is IMO the place you go to tryout/learn builds/champions if someone does something different or weird, please don't bash them, even if they are doing bad, and if they are then just look at what they are doing and try to either explain why what they are trying is bad, or try to help them make it work.

  • @Riot posts-At the very least look and read through these Riot lately a few of these have had some good, if Salty, points.

  • "It's just a game"- LoL is at the end of the day, a game made for enjoyment, if you really get so angry or hateful towards people for losing at a game, then you honestly need to just turn off the game, relax, and have some introspection as to why the fuck you care so much, [unless it's a Pro, then you should just relax and work on skill/strategy for the next game].

  • "Fuck you Riot for X"- Riot are people working hard in so many ways to please millions of people, get the fuck of whatever high-horse you're on and just appreciate all the good Riot has done and is trying to do, though I do disagree with a few of their choices I understand their reasons and can see the potential of them, also Lag is a mix of server distance, your own provider, and total usage your modem/provider is receiving, stop just blaming Riot all the time, unless it is undoubtedly their fault, if so be nice about it.

  • Lag- It happens you cant assume people are just lying about it, so before you get annoyed; if they say it's lag just accept it and move on you might still win.

Well here we go, a list of things that I feel need some honest legitimate debate about, please stay respectful though. Soraka

You realize there's not likely to be much respectful discussion on those points, right? The people who agree with you likely won't bother to post, whereas the ones who genuinely disagree or want to troll are likely the only ones who will be motivated enough to respond. For instance, I agree with most of your points, but I disagree on where people should go to learn new champs/builds/etc. I think they should start with customs, then blind, and move to draft last. Some champs are easy enough to pick up that one can do so in the course of a normal game, but others (Azir) are complex/difficult enough that someone trying to learn them only in draft is going to have an exceedingly hard time, potentially dissuading them from the champ and almost guaranteeing a loss for his/her team.
