Ribbons

So today (1/25/15) i got my green ribbon but i already had my blue ribbon and i had this idea that Riot should make it so that not only 1 ribbon shows up in the loading screen. I mean there are 4 corners to your loading screen picture and there are 4 ribbons so why cant Riot designate 1 ribbon for each corner? Just a thought because it would be nice to show off all the ribbons you have instead of just 1

I did not see ribbion in ages.

Still, ribbon for each corner would not look much good. But I do agree without that all of them should be showed.

Therefore if ribbon wold just hang from the top you could easily fit four ribbons alongside each other.

Anyways, I just wish there was more incentive to get ribbons, ever since I got to silver I've stopped receiving any :C

you just gotta keep getting honor i play with ppl that are always giving honor and i do the same so play with ppl that will give u honor and you will get them in no time

It counts for far less if you are honored by the same person more than once. The best way to get honor is just to be a nice player. Compliment people on both teams for exceptional plays, and offer suggestions to your teammates from time to time. Be careful with criticisms, though, as there are many players that take anything like that as an insult.

i would like to stay on the topic of riot making it so multiple ribbons are shown in the loading screen thank you

Alright then. I believe I'm in roughly the same boat as you. Back when honor first came out, I quickly accumulated all 4 ribbons, then ended up on the teamwork (green) ribbon, which has not gone away since. But a few days ago, I apparently earned it again. ... Getting off topic again, aren't I? It'd be kinda cool to see ribbons on all 4 corners of your border at the loading screen. For one thing, it would be visible enough that perhaps a few more players would remember that the honor system exists, so it wouldn't feel so dead.

yeah im hoping riot will see this and give my idea some thought because for those ppl who do have like 3 of the ribbons its stupid that they only show 1

I once got a ribbon, then Riot took it away because I hadn't gotten many +1 Honors. Now, I just randomly get honored. I wish that one you got over 400 honors, friendlies, teamworks, or assists, you get the ribbon permanently and can chose to wear it or not. But still, congrats.

I would like to point out that being a nice player doesn't exactly do anything.

When the ribbons came out people were honoring like crazy, a month or two pass and people are honoring when it's deserved and now almost nobody does it for any reason.

I honor teams that don't surrender a 4v5 scenario, that's about my only reason anymore but i'm sure that's just a personal thing.

Being a nice player is awesome, though. Every game is a ton more fun if you can get everybody joking around in chat and calling out good plays by either team.

I like to honor opponents that keep the same positive attitude throughout the game. If they're getting completely stomped, yet still compliment us on exceptional plays, I think they deserve it.

Riot should make a 1k honor ribbon, that's an accomplishment too after all.

I agree !! And I'd go a step further, if you get 1,000 honors I think Riot should consider gifting a icon, or a special ward to go along with it... I think that would be very cool.

How many people would strive for that ??????

If I were to get honored in about 25 % of all my games ...should I have a Ribbon ??

Or how does it work ??

I've been getting honored an average of about once every other game, and I haven't been without a ribbon since I earned my first one a couple days after the honor system came out. It doesn't seem that quantity makes any particular difference in whether or not you earn a ribbon. Rather, it's consistency. Are you a nice player every game, regardless of whether you're winning or losing? But I can't be sure how it works; the actual formulas have never been posted, to my knowledge. In any case, the honor system is just about dead. At some point I expect Riot will be coming back to it, perhaps offering some sort of reward. Maybe it will be based on how often you are honored, or how often you honor others. I would expect a system that weights individual honor points based on how often that person gives it out. If they're honoring every player they meet, it would count for less. But if they don't do that, and instead only honor a few people, maybe 1 or 2 per game, then it might count for more.

actually gale that last part about it being worth more the less u honor is actually how it works right now so if you honor all 9 ppl u can then your honor will be about as useful as an ADCassiopeia

So the main thing is there needs to be some kind of incentive that's not just free stuff.

Tenebrais1 votes

yeah but for some people (like me) just having the ribbons is incentive enough cause i think they look awesome

I've always liked making games fun anyway. Getting both teams joking around keeps everything lighthearted.

Let me see, I've never been reported for anything that I know of...I don't do a lot of talking in games I will say nj or such things, and I will engage in talking or helping if advice is asked for ! I don't spam reports ( very seldom do I even report anyone it has to be very nasty event to make me hit the report button )

As far as giving out honors... I Never ask for one... I will give them for all categories...if anything I might give honors that I usually wouldn't If people were saying rude things and I'll give 1 or 2 out for the people who just ignored comments and or went over to help the rude people..so not sure that would be spamming honors :))

Mostly I was just curious about them and thanks for all answers and OP for the thread. I'd vote for showing all the ribbons I think they should be shown :)

i used to have all ribbons, but i lost them all. not because i was punished, i still have all the honors, i just don't get honored as often anymore. Maybe i became less nice...who knows!

The hardest to get is the honorable opponent, so i guess thats the best?? its really just personal preference
