Make the No-Refund policy a sticky note already

Eternal Torment··1 votes·340 views

Its clearly defined in the ToS that there are no money refunds yet thats the very part skipped most.

I dont get tired of seeing people ask for their money back since it means i got something to laugh at, but the sheer number of people skipping it should be reason to motivate a more active way of informing. With the boards it'd be posts that were pinned.

Yes or no? Comment with your reasons why yes or why no.

Probably I mean I'm probably one of the few people that actually read the full tos. I spent money on this game so I can't afford to be toxic.

Exactly. Its just basic common sense to not be a dick if you're gonna spend money on something. If you harass people at a nightclub, on a cruise, or in a theater, you dont get refunds for those either. But when riot does it to toxic folk apparently is some kind of theft to them.

But you know the saying. "Common sense is a lot like deodorant- the people that need it most, never use it."

Aside from the fact that I just don't have any real desire to be a dick to people online, the amount of money I've spent on this game is the one reason that I always think twice before saying something back to someone who tries to start something. I'm not sure on the exact amount, since I've got 5 accounts now, but it's an amount that would take me years to try and replace. No way some twerp online is worth that much.

I imagine this would be the same as the few mega-posts on rules and information that have been tried in the past -- ultimately, the people who would benefit most from that information are not the people who read it, so it ends up not really serving its intended purpose of reducing the number of threads about the topic.

It's important to remember that many of the people posting on Player Behavior are angry or frustrated (sometimes very in-the-moment), often at what they perceive as an unfairness in Riot's systems or methods. That's not really a mindset where we can reasonably expect them to browse the boards and read up on available resources prior to posting, especially as many of them are posters who have never used the boards before, and likely wouldn't have seen said resource previously.

As always, you bring good points. Yeah...people do tend to skip those. But it shozld be worth a try. The psa scam post has been around for years in spite of being not given attention because it serves a means to help. It may be a futile attempt, but its an attempt nonethless. Or thats what i think

I should have clarified -- we have tried. Important posts about behavioral issues were pinned in the past, and had no visible effect on posting habits. I don't think it's something we're likely to do again unless we see a really important opportunity. Refund questions, while sometimes irritating, aren't prevalent enough for me to think that approach is worth the board space (remember, every post we pin is one less thread that's easily visible).

Gist gotten. In the future I'll request that you do remove the political lines though -- we have a board rule about pulling politics into conversation here, but I'll let you off with the friendly reminder to avoid it in the future this time. :)

I don't think this is necessary. Just let them keep posting.
