What's the point of upvote farming?

Like half the posts on the Hot tab are people going like: Champion X is annoying , fuck that champion, and there are a bunch of comments saying like "trueeeee".Those posts don't offer anything other than just being there for people to get upvoted. What's even the point of that?

The thing is that the ppl here actually think they are right just bcs they are upvoting each others circlejerk posts and downvote everything else.

They actually think that just because they got 50 upvotes on their "nerf Riven" 1 line shitpost that it means that the whole community shares their opinion and think they are right, and that's the sad part of it. That they actually believe they speak for the community and are giving valid input for Riot on the champion balance.

The best part was when everyone here acted surprised and shocked when a Rioter finally said that these boards are fcking useless and they don't even bother looking here anymore. I wonder why..... And nothing has changed, because, you know, it's obviously Riots fault that they don't balance the game like the ppl here want, ergo buff all mages and tanks into oblivion and nerf all Assassins until they are unplayable.

Just be glad that Riot has officially said that they don't give a fuck about the gameplay boards here anyway, else the game would be even more unplayable than it already is.

There isn't a point. Upvote farming isn't a thing. /thread

Well if it helps, other random posts get downvotes and replies that just entice you to respond and get trapped in a toxic fight.

Not my fault I'm... Well, no, I'm not popular. I'm just a Jhin main that people find mildly entertaining.

What's the point of anything? It's all for entertainment. I post on here because I want to express myself. I honestly don't care if people upvote it or downvote it, makes no difference to me. People are much more likely to look at a post that has a lot of votes over one that has negative votes however.
