Can Riot please remove the downvoting feature on the boards?

I think we all know that groups of people abuse it to prevent discussion about what many consider genuine issues in the game. Its unfair that only the majority on the boards get heard while many numbers of players have their topics unfairly voted down by people who either do it to be spiteful or want to protect their OP champions/items/etc.

It is completely unfair to most people who do not have leagues of groupies who upvote everything that they say.

You should put some holes in your hat. It is summer and tin foil really doesn't circulate air so much.

If it has meaningful discussion value, people will upvote it, rather than downvote it.

People downvote when thread is stupid. When it has no arguments or valid points.

For example if you write "Nerf Diana she op i lost to her". Its getting downvotes. Because its not worth looking at.

i feel like they should remove downvotes for a different reason. it promotes dick measuring contests on the boards

I think it'd make more practical sense to show the amount of both upvote & downvote numbers; instead of showing the difference.
