People need to learn how to express their frustration constructively.

You know that prick that you get in your matches? You know the one, the one that tries to tell you how to play your lane but at the same time berates you every time you make a mistake. You know who I am talking about. They guy that wants to win and thinks the best way to go about it is to tell you how shitty you are at your lane and just piss you off by talking shit and complaining all game? Yeah... you are that person when you bitch at Riot.

"Whoever made Kalista needs to be fired." "Riot is r%%%%%ed for nerfing jungle again. They clearly never jungle and just hate anyone that isn't lee sin." insert 'fuck you' image here because that helps "Veigar is good if you play bots farm IP and then buy a real champ instead" There is a thread that literally tells Riot to go fuck them selves and it is on the front page...

I main jungle and I get pissed whenever they nerf (what most of us see as) the wrong thing but calling Riot r%%%%%ed and defaulting your argument to a Lee Sin hate thread and 'LC$ BIG PLAYS BRO' mock thread solves nothing. Instead of being an angry child, try to give them meaningful feedback. Riot might act on it. Riot might not. Who knows? But at least you aren't being an ass about it and it is being constructive. I get why people are pissed. They care. They are upset that a part of they game they enjoy is being changed or, as some of us believe, being treated unfairly. I am not asking you to be happy with the way things are being handled. Just be civil about it. Whether your feedback is accurate or not is irrelevant. Just stop being assholes about it. Below I will list what I hate about the jungle changes. My feedback might be completely wrong but anything is better than "Fuck you, Riot. You need to fire the jungle balance team because they clearly have no experience with the jungle."

Riot, I am not happy with the way the jungle is being handled. You nerfed Chilling smite several times because it is too good compared to the others. First nerf I could understand. Change flat movement speed reduction to movement steal. Made sense. Instead of chilling smite letting your entire team catch the target you have to catch them and stall them for your team to get them. Nerfing the range however does not make sense to me. Some champions NEEDED that range in order to be able to gank. All this nerf did was hurt those champions and mildly inconvenience the already strong junglers (Vi, J4, Lee) that can instantly get in melee range without the smite. You took away the cake from some jungles and the icing from others.

Want to make the other smites on par with Chilling? Rework Poacher's. I would even say just remove it. No one uses it because the risk is high because jungle camps are stronger than ever before and you have to sit in enemy territory in order to get a mediocre reward. Revert red smite to pre WW nerf state or make it reduce damage to all targets not just jungle. I expect Purple smite to be nerfed soon because it will now be the go-to smite and there will be no more smite diversity now than there was pre-chilling renerf.

You nerfed Warrior's enchant because "The Warrior enchant seems to be outperforming of its other enchantment counterparts". I would say that is because AP and tank jungles are dead weight this season. Top jungles are all AD bruisers. I honestly cannot name one good AP or tank jungle. Okay... maybe Nidalee as AP. Tanks take too long to clear camps and deal no damage so they suffer from less exp and gold than their camp clearing gank strong counter parts. AP jungles have no real form of sustain for their clears and mana nerfs didn't help that. If Elise and Diana got some decent buffs maybe we would see more Magus enchants. If Zac and Naut got some love maybe we would see more Juggernaut enchants. Simply put: I don't think the enchant is the problem here.

See guys? It is possible to list the stuff you are frustrated about without being a piece of shit about it and it be meaningful. I would have added my Kalista hate but this thread is long enough and will get passed over anyway.

Yet there are completely legitimate threads that don't agree with Riot that are both well constructed and ignored.

These threads are old, and I really wish you and your smurfs would stop spamming them.

you are under the impression riot will listen if you use constructive criticism. what gives you that idea? I get no such feeling. they ignore us no matter what we say or how eloquently we say it.
