League down, again?!

PsychoticLamb··6 votes·1,229 views

I can understand the site being down every so often for updates/repairs. But constantly having issues with logging on and playing..? It's just getting ridiculous at this point. . Does League wanna lose players? Cause this is how they are gonna lose players. But keep up the work Rito, you are doing a fantastic job. [zombie-brand-clap]

I'm not sure you understand the amount of maintenance is included to keep League running smoothly. As of 2014 (Two years ago), 27 million people played League daily.

Let me just say that again.

27 million people.

League caters to a daily host of at least 27 million people every day. On top of that Riot is constantly releasing new stuff like Kled and the new SKT skins. Each of those come with their own set of problems as well. Don't get me wrong, I'm frustrated as well at the servers being down. But League is like a machine. The machine needs to be kept in good condition, well-oiled, and made with the finest quality of parts. And new parts that need to be integrated into the machine are coming in on a monthly basis.

Keep in mind that I'm no programmer, this is just common sense. Which most, if not all people possess some degree of.

If you think you can do a better job, by all means, send in your application. But until then you're stuck, like the rest of us, to take faith in Riot that the machine will be fixed soon.

I am fully aware of how much maintenance League needs to keep the servers running for everyone, but thank you for questioning my intelligence/common sense. ☺

Maybe League should focus more on fixing the game play, and fixing other issues players have; instead of constantly shoving new champs and skins down our throats.

The post was more aimed at, I barely have time to play League anymore. And it seems like every time I try to play, it's down for maintenance. Hence, my frustrations.

cry more? or since you obv a genius just hack their everything and fix the problem yourself, it should only take like 30 second since you know everything about how their servers and code works.

xD You mad? And I never claimed to know everything about servers and coding, I just know a bit. You just love assuming and putting your two cents where it doesn't belong, eh? ♥

Please, we all know there is no degree involved. They are temp-to-hire and anyone with a degree would know when you drop servers off the grid to release some sort of alert before it happens. ANY legit programmer and engineer knows this. I work with an accounting software myself (Intuit QuickBooks) and as a Technical Support Expert and our engineers ALWAYS release a home page alert letting users know "Maintenance will be scheduled @ :* pm/am. We are sorry for any inconvenience". If the programmers are so invested in fixing it, you would think common courtesy would be involved. I could enhance some of the game features if I cared enough to contact their feedback support. But come on, we all know thats obsolete.. It will get overlooked and thrown away before they consider implementing someones ideas that could clearly make the players' experience better. That is why I love my job, we are always working to make the CUSTOMERS experience BETTER than the last. Riot should take notes from Intuit. I will gladly send you some feedback from our engineering crew out of Tuscon, AZ.

Okay, lest not forget that Riot is a multi-billion dollar company. If they really gave a shit about their customers, they would hire people to fix bugs, or work on issues ahead of time to try and prevent this stuff from happening. But they don't cuz they only care about money. It absolutely retarded that they make this much money and cant afford to prevent these bugs.

Bugs and glitches can happened anytime of the day without any given time. If you can do a better job than them, be my guest and do it. If can't, then just wait in line like everyone else and let Riot handle the problems.

They are doing their best to bring everything up to normal speed as we speak. Unless you guys prefer playing a buggy and full of glitch and problems league games then be my guest. By then don't come back and start ranting at Riot. You guys need to take some chill pills.[zombie-brand-facepalm]
