Shoutout to @Riot Whist

You've been really active on the forums recently, and I think I speak for us all when I say, "Thank you!"

On behalf of only myself, I also really appreciate that you've spoken plainly and for yourself. And I -think- that the community is starting to realize that when you speak, you aren't neccessarily representing Riot. IMO, this is GREAT, and I wish that more Rioters had this relationship with the forums. It takes pressure off of you (Rioters) having to make sure that your posts are flawless, which in turn leads to more red posts - and more communication is always better :D.
Also, more Rioters on the forums -> better player-company relations (both in terms of PR, and simple connection to the community).

Cheers,
Hyrum Graff

Woah woah woah, what's the 'rundown' bit at the bottom of the linked post? I've never seen that before. Looks like it shows all red comments and anything immediately bridging them. Was that something you did or was it an automatic thing for having a certain threshold of Rioter comments? A bit off-topic sorry.

Rioters had this relationship a while back but with League rampant growth and steady decline of the average poster it created a very hostile atmosphere towards any Rioter participation in the community. Personally I hope the CB can be a nice 'reset' and we can get that going again! Cheers mate!

Which department is Whist anyways? I'm not able to find his department highlighted under his name for whatever reason. It's not loading up for whatever reason. His name is still red, but it's not showing his department (whereas I can clearly see Noyz is marketing.)
