Jey i already see all the Downvotes coming but honestly stop spamming the whole Boards with your flaming. If you havn't recognized yet, it doesn't help anything and anybody. Stick to being constructive and helpful and be polite. Thank you very much. I originally came here to see the awesome and interesting creations of all of you, not all the day over and over the same whining. This is not the right place to flame.

Just do this pls [slayer-pantheon-thumbs] We would all be muuuch happier.

People need to understand LoL is a FREE TO PLAY game sure the community runs it by buying all the skins and playing the game but riot ABSOLUTELY has 100% freedom to do as they please i know alot of people are bummed out about Solo Q but thats life you don't always get what you want or deserve

Free to play is never free. You spend time, money on features, more time to get ingame currency, grinding.

Now if you don't value your time to be worth money then... I am speechless

If there is a lot of complaints is because riot is doing something wrong, instead of discouraging people to stand up for the game they love and how riot is destroying it you should either help in any other way or just stay out of it

Or it's just a vocal minority that complain. In the case of this board, it tends to be those that have punished who complain the loudest and most frequently here.

Riot knows what they are doing, I trust it full-heartedly. I get the vibe from them, that they know what they are doing. They take their time with each patch, instead of insta-hot-fix like every other game does when a playerbase gets mad. They take their time instead of 'bandaid bud' for the meta. They want you to have fun, not bitch and complain. This post is the type of player Riot wants you to be, not some flaming kid who gets mad when bot lane is 0/5/3 and getting KS'd like snap.

What can we possibly say at this point?

There is no "constructive, helpful and polite" criticism to be had about Dynamic Queue at this point for example.

Yes there is, give helpful suggestions about how to fix this new system instead of nerf change we want old way soloq. How about saying, "hey Riot, we think a viable solution to fixing this system would be to fix the fact that premades are stronger and have more communication than 5 solo queue players who don't know each other.". This game is yours and Riot. The ball can very well be in your court if you are helpful.

When you pick Dynamic Queue apart and start thinking "How it can be improved?" you get exactly that, "Solo Queue and Team Ranked".

Even Riot is starting to understand that. They nearly removed Dynamic Queue from Diamond+ after all.

I may not be diamond yet but that doesn't mean I'm a stupid player. I know what's happening on the rift all the time, I watch every single lane and try my hardest to win lane when the circumstances are right. It's really funny for me to see my teammates flame the hell out of me when I lock in as something off meta because they aren't used to it, that's why I'm going to play garen and other off meta picks 24/7 after I get out of bronze for the first time

On the contrary.

All the posts are having the intended effect, showing a massive disapproval of Riot's actions.

It's all the more meaningful because it's not coordinated. Individually, players are becoming fed up with what Riot keeps trying to force on everyone when it isn't merely an unhealthy move for the game, but is making the game unplayable for many people.

You really aren't wrong, these people get butt hurt so quickly it is insane. What Jonxx said above is correct, that's the mind set you should have if you want to have fun, don't pour $ to enjoy your time.

...especially when it's Tencent now.

Anyway, I'm all for a good discussion, but I find it really hard to be nice towards them when it apparently doesn't matter what or how you write something, when it seemingly is utterly ignored. And by utterly ignored, I mean the number of actual Red replies outside General Discussion, Jokes and Meme's and Technical Support.

Yes, when they do stick their neck out and try to informally chat in whatever section of the Board only to be peppered with cries about Dynamic Queue, Teemo, world terror (which is essentially the same thing) and whatever off-topic nonsense, that's sad and shouldn't be allowed, BUT when someone try to simply facilitate a simple, polite request and/or discussion only to be completely disregarded to the game makers...that's rude too.

If they care so much about their precious "Clarity™", then they should also suck it up, grow some thicker skin, and jump into it and provide more answers. Non-commitically, if that's what's required, of course.

But, you know, just to let us know they're still out there, reading and listening (in as much as listening is possible in a text-only place).
