More Intuative Gameplay

I've been playing LofL since Season 1. Have hated many changes and loved many changes over the years. The one thing I hate more than anything is not being able to find out WTF something means or how to earn it. If it is something available in game, then IN GAME there should be all the details on to do it. And it shouldn't be like the movie "National Treasure" where you have to find one clue to find another to find another to find something close to the damned answer. When Google can't find the EXACT answer in on the first page of returned results, you know your shit is broken. With that said, WTF do all the ribbons and colors mean? (I know what the center banners mean, even what the colors mean...I know what the upper left corner banners on the loading screen mean...at least until LVL 5. Google found LVL 6 and 7 but nothing on the colors or how the fuck to earn them.) Then I go back into the LofL client with this new found knowledge and find details in the Loot and Crafting Invitory...to which I've earned some things....but no fucking details on what it means or any comparison about my options to spend said loot. WTF?!!! Perhaps I'm just senile in my LofL mind, but I REALLY thought game designers made shit easy for the players to get answers within the client itself...for me, it no longer is easy.
