PLEASE @Riot , just disable the servers until they're fixed...

Ever since the Preseason, and even before that, connectivity issues have been absolutely dreadful. Increasing amounts of ping spikes and complete DC's, increasingly frequent server crashes. I for one have been getting ping spikes up to 1300 all day despite having no issues with my internet, and that's on top of the already dreadful connection to East Coast users such as myself.

I promise you Riot, if you announce that you are shutting down the servers for a day or two, or even a week, in order to solve these awful issues that have been occurring, noone will be very upset. We just want consistent, working servers, and tbh I've never seen servers that have as many issues as the LoL servers.

I completely agree with this. At least we would not lose/win LP for games where we can't even control our champion. At least disable ranked queue for a couple days while they sort this out...

I feel the same way in the sense of urgency that would cause for Riot (and the important message it sends to the community saying this is 100% top priority) if they disabled the servers, like they would have to have all hands on deck. And I would like to see them do something, even if they just want to talk networking and servers here on the forums, it would help a lot. Umm they probably should not have ranked enabled at all. Keeping the servers up kinda means people are gonna be way more toxic than normal and friends are gonna lose friends as one lags the other doesn't, it just gets amplified. But I imagine they need the servers up to continue to get data and to be able to work on a solution. While they may not have the answer now, they should share the steps, they should follow part 2 of the summoner code, they are summoners too.

I won a game in ranked and they literally disregarded it. After 40 mins to, lol. I wouldn't mind a some free RP for being kicked from games and DCD randomly over something i had nothing to with nor my internet or equipment's fault. This has been since preseason now.. i've had enough of ruining my mmr and LP from this.

As an east coast player I actually am having no ping spikes at all. But regardless of that I understand that players getting pings spikes are frustrated and want them fixed but all the players that are not having issues will just complain and ask for free stuff because they are not having issues.

To be honest with you, I kinda would. That's just my opinion, but as an avid league player, I'd be rather nerve wracked at the fact that I wouldn't know when the servers would be up. What do you guys think?
