There are hundreds of people using their time and creativity to give us a game that is enjoyable (despite the toxic fanbase). I always see "rito why" or "wtf riot" but never a genuine "thanks rRiot". I mean look at the new Irelia rework. Just the trailer is enough to motivate me to buy her. So I think we should take some time throughout our league careers and give Riot and their employees a thank you.
Negativity is always vastly more vocal than positivity. The boards are mostly a tiny fraction of very pissed-off players, and an even smaller number of ones with actual constructive discussion.
r/leagueoflegends and champion or mode specific subs have the more intelligent and constructive discussion.
Also explains something about voting statistics...
"Thanks for doing the job you're paid to do."

Which efforts? Because if we're talking story and art then they're doing GREAT!
Balance wise though I think a chimp in a suit could actually do better than the people on the current "team..."
When it comes to animations, lore, skins and music they are freaking amazing!
Then the balance team comes along and throws everything out of the window.
IT'S THEIR JOB AND THEY GET PAID LMFAO..... I am happy with the skins they have been releasing and some other changes but honestly.... as a veteran of 8 or so years I can't really say the game is better. Actually I extremely dislike the game right now. WHy should I praise them for ruining their ONLY GAME THEY HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT. Like.... lmfao you know how dumb that is? They have 1 GAME! 1 FUCKING GAME! and they still take years to implement the most basic shit and now that they finally have we're supposed to fall over dead for them in gratitude?
Thanks for being a good example, Nugget! We do need to show appreciation.
WE DO THANK THEM.
We have players playing their game, streamers, professionals.
We have multiple websites dedicated with guides made by other players, places filled with statistics.
A LOT of players spend A LOT of their money on amazing skins which supports Riot Games.
We've all supported their Youtube Channel, subscribed to it, made amazing comments that bring a smile or a chuckle upon the reader and appreciated their music team VERY much.
Players make absolutely stunning montages on their favourite champions, we have players who produce ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE ART of champions & areas of runeterra.
Players have LOVED their merchandise and still want more.
Even their support ticket staff ARE GREAT PEOPLE.
They are successful in every category, we support them in every way, ironic you can't see that.
THEY KNOW IT AND THEY ARE GRATEFUL.
1: People show thanks with their money. Think about it
2: Because being angry at riot is easier than finding a reason to thank them.
And they are doing it for free... OH WAIT!
Their music team art team even the ticket staffs are great.
The only thing I really like from the balance team is when they brought in the new/reworked AP items but other than that it is pretty frustrating BUT they are fixing stuff that was supposed to be fixed last year but ATLEAST they are starting to work on stuff little by little.
Lmao, thank them for a shit game? No, my man. That's not how things work. I pay - they provide. When they don't provide - I stop paying.
Right now, the only thing I can thank them for is a new ADC for me to play.
Mastery Rune rework destroyed our ability to customize our champions to our playstyle.
The upcoming MF skin is lacking in a few key upgrades.
Balance team tends to play favorites (and they're about to overbuff Kai).
Lore department has been increasingly terrible.
I mean, all peeps should have a constant sense of gratitude for all they have that they definitely are not -entitled- to, LoL-related or not.
But look, Riot thanks us, really. Not the other way around, ESPECIALLY for it being F2P. F2P games go NOWHERE without their playerbase. Period, full stop. LoL is fun, but without it i go back to one of a dozen games.
Without us, where do they go? We give them money for skins, time for games, exposure via our community created content. The resources we spend on the game ARE the thanks we give, and then some.
I find it hard to want to thank a company who has for the last 3 years brought the gaming level and enjoyment of this game down each progressive year. They removed a huge part of League's customization by removing runes altogether and limiting people to just 11 mastery pages. So we went from a possible 400+ combination system to just 11. That alone should show where this game is heading. On top of that they've had this game for years working in a good direction but somehow managed to destroy what balance they had in the past without being able to fix or correct it. No, I won't be thanking them.
