Honor system killed Alpha Client

So First off, I'd like to say that I am over frustrated of how the new Alpha Client removed everything we actually own. Let me explain you,

Since the new client looked pretty much based on only ranked stats border (Flex 3s/Flex 5s/Solo Q borders), a lot of players (including me) started playing Flex3s/Flex5s to match their solo q border so then their profile looks good. I was Platinum III in every queue ( Flex 3s, Flex 5s and Solo Q ) since Riot said that these new queues would have an impact at the end of season.

They first removed ARAM/Normal stats ( Wins,Turrets,Cs ) to I guess make the client less packed. ( I was and still actually tilted of them removing this ) They said they would do something about it when they released the Alpha Client wich never happened.

When I heard about the new Honor system I was pretty excited since I had over 940 teamwork Ribbons, 450 Honorable opponent, 350 Friendly and 90 Helpful. Threw my 3 seasons of League, i've had a lot of honors given by players because I've always kept calm and be nice/professional with everyone I played with ( ofc i had some downs ). Players looking at my ribbons were always surprised on how much I try harded to get these ribbons. I was wondering if Riot would recognize my hard work with new system...

No

I just logged into my client. So... All my ribbons are gone. My Flex 3s/Flex 5s borders are gone. Now all I see is a Solo Q border and on the left the Honor Badge. Really??!!

So by doing that they just gave to anybody the opportunity of creating a lot of smurfs. Why? Simply because creating a fresh new account right now, can get you to the same kind of profile of someone who played for over 4 years. Basically what I'm trying to say is that all the effort I've put into that game are gone. Nothing left. At the moment, my smurf looks exactly like my main account. I opened it up and it is actually the same kind of profile. I'd like you guys to think on a way of giving the ancient ones the respect they deserve and the hard work they have made to play your game over all those years.

I hope this get's somewhere because this is getting out of Hand. Jérémi, best regards

The client isn't "alpha" anymore, or "beta" for that matter. It is LIVE and has been for over two months.

Riot screwed the people that had honor ribbons before, we know that. Just like the new runes system will provide no compensation to those that spent IP (or RP back in season 1) on Runes/Rune pages.

That's just the way it is, get used to it.
