So, with the update on the website Riot removed the notification bar which tells you when someone posted a comment on your thread.

Riot changed years ago the Boards to make it more Reddit-like. Now the new website updated and removes this feature without a single word.

This place is supposed to have a (meaningful) discussion. Why remove the ability to see with the first glare if someone answered you or not?

To be honest, this update makes me so angry and sad. I spend so much time here and the removal of this feature takes all my interest away to write a thread because I have no idea to see if someone wants to discuss it or not in an easy way.

If I wasn't lazy I would have written a tampermonkey script to add this feature back

I agree that it's ridiculous that the update button was removed, but the page is still there.

I think the new nav bar was just mindlessly pushed to all Riot sites without any consideration for usability.

The thing that's really broken is mod notifications. If a mod deletes or edits a post, they have no way of letting you know it even happened, much less telling you any details.
