Toxic players censoring out any criticism on the forums, the Upvote and Downvote system needs to go

These forums are full of players who want Riot to hear nothing but praise for everything they do, that there is nothing wrong with anything. I made two threads regarding player behavior, both have been censored out of view because they weren't praising Riot. This system of up and down votes need to be removed so these toxic players are not allowed control over the entire forum and serious problems can be fixed. This is just like reporting a player, Riot can't fix it if they can't hear it, and the people in control of sound don't want Riot to know something's wrong with the community.

All of the links you listed were people complaining about their punishments. They get downvoted because that's not even what the boards are for. If you want to figure out why you got punished, send in a support ticket and talk to a player support representative. The first is someone who is complaining about getting a chat restriction when they probably deserved it. People aren't going to upvote that. The second is someone who most likely plays stupid and gets caught then blames teammates for not following him to their death. And then there's you, if you want to be seen when you are doing nothing but complain, make a suggestion to riot that we have "controversial" board that the most downvoted posts are sorted into and people can look through those. If someone is going to complain, people on the boards want it to be constructive and legitimate. We don't want someone just rambling and swearing and saying how terrible Riot is and how they need to stop making champions and focus on player support or someone other less-than-intelligent complaint that they didn't think over.

Thank you all for proving me right, especially you sir. Not only was neither of them complaining about being punished, but additionally both are constructive and legitimate. Thank you again for proving to everyone who I show this to that this forum is full of the worst of the community.
