Reasons I can't stand to support Riot games anymore.

  1. E-$ports. I don't watch them, care to watch them, don't even care who wins. Riot is trying too hard to force the e-sport scene down our throats. I could only imagine how much faster the new summoners rift and dunkmaster darius would have come to us had Riot of allocated the funds from running an e-sports outfit towards these other projects instead.

  2. Auto banning, specifically for leaving games early. 20:00: "its 1 to 45, can we please please please not drag this out? They are just toying with us. Let's just ff" 3y/2n 40:00: "omfg its 1 to 120, please for the love of fking god can we ff" 3y/2n 40:01: summoner has quit! Enjoy your ban

3)Smurfs and elo boosting. Just lovely.

  1. I keep hearing about all these summoners that have had their ways amended because of the all-mighty auto ban and tribunal systems. Too bad I never get to play with any of these reformed souls.

  2. $$$$$ Are you fking kidding me? This game is too god damn expensive. I could buy a relatively new used game for the price of Spirit Guard Udyr.

  3. Just fk you Riot. Goodbye

  1. Leaving broken-OP champions that way for a couple of years of complaints from users before finally fixing them (see Nidalee, Kassadin, etc.)

  1. Mounds of game-breaking bugs that take years for them to fix, if they ever do

  2. A horrible, rage-inducing, badly designed ranked system

  3. Super inconsistent matchmaking

  4. Very questionable forum moderation

  5. Generally not listening to most reasonable feedback from players

... I bet we can make it to a good 25 totally reasonable reasons, not kidding at all.

  1. East coast servers
  2. Outages almost weekly
  3. Flat out lies such as "All roles are loved equally"

  1. This forum shitting itself on mobile devices. It's 2014 riot, get with the times.

  2. Utterly shite reworks destroying champs left and right.

  3. Removing details from skins people paid for.

  4. East coast servers.

  5. Constant pr double talk from every riot employee, no more honesty, no more transparency.

  6. The fact that I numbered these goddamn points 12 13 14 15 16 and 17, but these boards are just so stupid that is defaulted to this and I'm on my phone so like hell I'm gonna play surgeon simulator to change that shit. Maybe not a valid point, but it is dumb.

hue ;)

upon reflecting on this thread two months later, i believe it's safe to say I feel the same way.

I just lower my expectations though, so Riot can surpass them.

I feel like this thread could use a bump.
