@Lyte - Riot player experience from the inside out

Hello -

I saw this in the recent Devstream for Warframe. One of the designers has launched what he calls his "Undercover Boss" project where is has anonymously created an account and is playing the game from a player's actual perspective rather than in a test environment, etc.

Has Riot ever considered or even performed a test like this? I'm curious what some of the results of it was if you already have.
I think it could be a cool vLog series if you chose to as well.

I have a few Rioters on my friends list. I see them playing all the time. It's funny when people don't realize that they're Rioters.

Maybe I don't understand what you mean, but many (if not most) Rioters play under alts, and are no different from you or me. They aren't sitting back not actually playing the game or interacting with the community.

Almost every single employee at Riot plays the game as a player. They don't hire people that don't play the game. ._.

Logically, they never have, or they would fix their GODDAMN BROKEN BEHAVIOR SYSTEM! IT CRASHED, I DIDN'T AFK FFS!

Short answer is: yes. Read quite a few redposts on how a lot of Rioters have incognito accounts, that are just regular accounts without any special benefits.
