Changing the name of this board again

Tamat··6 votes·3,915 views

Hey friends,

We've been watching activity in this board since we changed the name a few weeks ago, and are thinking about changing it to one of the following:

  1. Gameplay & Balance
  2. Balance & Gameplay

Which would you prefer?

While we're at it, can we change Skin & Champion Concepts to Skins & Champion Concepts? There has been a lot of confusion over that missing s.

Tamat2 votes

What's the confusion?

Daen9 votes

Skin & Champion Concepts includes the following:

  • Concept skins
  • Concept champions

Skins & Champion Concepts includes the following:

  • All things related to skins
  • Concept skins
  • Current skins
  • Requests for future skins
  • Concept champions

You make some good points. I'll change this as well. ;)

You would be closing "Skins" as its own subject, rather than stating how "Concepts" also applies to the "Skin." Skin Concepts, Champion Concepts = Skin & Champion Concepts. The grammar seems on-point.

This is a great place to give feedback about existing or upcoming skins, or show off your favorite GIFs of your battle-tested skins-of-choice, or anything related to skins in League of Legends.

  • Etiquette from the Skin & Champion Concepts board

Skin & Champion Concepts is intended to include skins as a general concept, it would seem, but the grammar does not.

Hmm...so maybe the guidelines could use work?

Imo the real question here is... why? Why isn't it "skins & champions" then? Why are current skins grouped with skin/Champion concepts? Imo fanfiction has a more solid claim to that forum than current skins do...

Make it so.

Balance covers both champions and items, and since there isn't a good spot to talk about items it should be a good change.

It always did confuse me how there was an apparent board dedicated for champion gameplay, but not one specifically about items (or runes, or masteries, so on).

Gameplay & Balance would be a well welcomed changed.

When in doubt, always go with reverse alphabetical order.

Well, Gameplay and balance makes more sense to have 'gameplay' be first, since it seems like that seems to be more 'encompassing' description.

Will this affect the URL of the Board? (Will people with old but still useful posts need to adjust links?)

Tamat2 votes

Yes, the URL will change, but given how long this board has been a thing, I doubt that'll have a huge impact.

Sir ArmaMalum1 votes

Yeah it's not a huge deal to adjust the links, but I'll keep an eye out now :)

Balance & Gameplay. Going through the alphabet in order tends to sound better.

Wow, the vote suggests the same name twice and then "other". Color me thoroughly unimpressed.

I'm gonna be a rebel and say it should be called, "Balance, Feedback & Gampeplay"

Will "Champions and Skins" board come back?

Whenever I post about an official skin I feel a bit iffy having to post it in the 'Concepts' board

I agree with having separate boards for Skins and Skin Concepts

Champions, gameplay, and balance

either or. both are much better than the current naming

Balance and Gameplay. It's a no-brainer, Balance starts with a B, and Gameplay starts with a G. Why would Gameplay and Balance be any better than Balance and Gameplay?

I'm a little annoyed now, because I created a discussion about what champ to buy next on the misc board, and it was told to post it here instead. I did, but this post makes me see that is also inappropriate here. If it was a bot that deleted my discussion, it might need a little work, if it was a Rioter, you guys apparently need to clarify internally what each board is.

Sounds like a negative experience. Sorry about that! It's hard to say what's what without seeing the thread, but I'll dig into it some more if you can provide the thread in question. I'll also see if we need to define our current process for how we handle stuff being posted in Misc, but again without the specific thread, it's hard to know for sure.

I admit now my original comment here was more of a rage post than anything. As for the thread, there's a repost of it on this board, and I will post the original thread if I can in a bit (I'm on my phone, it's difficult to link stuff).

EDIT: original thread: http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/miscellaneous/wWbz3iEE-help-me-choose-a-champ And looking at it, I was definitely overreacting. The thread did belong this board, where people discuss champions (duh). However, if you were to change the title of this board to just Balance & Gameplay, it would appear as though there's no proper place for a discussion like mine. Perhaps the name of this board should be threefold? Champions, Balance & Gameplay?
