Can we get some kind of sticky topic for really frequent things?

I don't know about you guys but it seems to me that half the PBM frontpage on any given day is about these little perception issues that will be asked again in a few days by another dozen people. Players come along and answer them in good faith, but honestly if someone called me out for a source of most of my answers I'd just have to shrug. There's a lot of little 'things you just know', except going by the forums a lot of people don't know them.

I think a lot of that trouble could hopefully be saved by having a red/blue sticky at the top with some official comment on common topics like:

  • 9 reports in 1 game means more than 1 report in 1 game.
  • HALP! I got some kind of poorly worded warning about being reported but I didn't do anything. What gives?
  • OMG I got permabanned first time I hate you all!
  • Someone spite reported me because I reported them and now I'm gonna get banned I hate you all! (Side note, how do people even know that?)
  • Things that Riot considers to be valid for reports but people don't seem to expect. e.g. "gg ez", calling for others to be reported

I'm sure there are others I don't have at the top of my head.

Stop trying to decrease the amount of popcorn threads.

This is definitely something we can look into! Thank you for bringing it up!

I agree. I'm getting sick of this section being unproductive. Isn't that what GD is for anyway?

I won 7 of my 10 placements and placed X. WHY!?!!!?

please make a youtube video explaining this, Riot. The whole ELO/MMR part, and why a win/loss ratio around 50% is intended.

Something we can copy-paste into those threads, maybe?

Even if they did people wouldn't listen to it. Just look when ever they do events (last years winter and summer event in particular) they always have that post about not going to other sites not affiliated with Riot games/league of legends as those are scams. And yet low and behold people still fall for it. Hell I remember seeing one post of someone who thought riot should compensate us for "lying" despite is being a clearly fake site.

It still happens and it's just really irritating, but people will always fall for it!
