The truth is that even when you are a saint board titles like:
#80% of the boards' people are salty and angry
don't seem like a breeding ground for discussion and seem more like a post to attract trolls.
I mean I don't fully disagree with you, the boards are filled with people that do nothing then talking down to other people(heck I am guilty of this even if I try to be better now). I have even seen post where the title was off and people posted without reading the text below.
example:
post 1:
Account banned
people that int feed should have their account banned.
Comment:
chat log or it didn't happen.(this comment has nothing to do with the post)
It doesn't really work that some of the writers(specially on pb&m) are often conspiracy nuts("riot banned my account because they want more money") or genuinely insane("why did I get banned for saying all <slur for people> should die"). After some time on the boards I often feel like posters are just here to complain.
Also when there is a circlejerk against things like champions and all post are around that for a while, people that disagree with these opinions are also treated like worse then dirt causing people to act like dicks in return.
so how do we go around fixing this
we can't fully fix it, if people disagree on the boards it generally causes flame storms and circlejerks.
As far as I see there is really only one way to truly change the balances around the salt. If you want the boards to be nicer, be the good example. Be the one that tries to remain civil. Be the one that never feeds the trolls that are only out for salt comments. It is generally true that the way to improve the world is to start with yourself, for you are the only thing that you can influence with some certainty.
oh and lastly some edit tips.
if you use a * before a summation and after 2 enters you get bullet points
so it looks like this in your post editor

in your final chat it looks like this:
