So she can wear ear plugs and lip piercings at work, but Graves can't have a cigar?

Riot's internal dress policy is not the same as some countries that have rules about the use of tobacco in games, magazines, or other media.

RISE Shlack1236 votes

It's not that hard to have the cigar-less Graves on the servers that frown upon tobacco. They still have region-specific splash arts out there, so this wouldn't be hard. And they forget Gragas, Esq. He still smokes and nothing was done to change it.

It's a hypocritical policy.

Sona Ping3 votes

It's not hypocritical at all! That's not what the word means! Riot has only done what they were obligated to and NOT removing Gragas Esq.'s smokes because they don't currently have to. It's just dumb that they refuse to have region-specific changes but knowing your preferences on this matter,

you should be thanking them for keeping Gragas Esq. untouched.

Riot did nothing but roll over to appease laws that they should have stood up against. Their decision to remove Graves' cigar against their fans protest is a failure to maintain their own right to artistic license and they have instead decided to let "regional laws" tell them how they can and can't draw their characters.

Pardon, but I have to burst your bubble:

That's not how the real world works. Laws don't function like they do in bad made-for-tv movies; Laws actually mean something.

I've never been involved in anything League aside from PBE. I usually don't write or post anything because I find no real reason for it, aside from repeating what other people have said. I log in and I notice that alot of comments seem to make fun of Sarah. The first thing I see is someone comparing Sarah to Skrillex. Yeah, I get it, similar haircuts or whatever. The thing I ask myself is, why say that in the first place? It seems to me that its a way to make fun of her, but why? All the other comments talk about her position or what it means. It just seems demeaning to me.

The way I see it is, "Cool! We get to talk to someone involved with Riot." When I see her title, all I can think of is that she's probably involved with the creative process on either Champ creation or Item creation. Simple. Yet people use it or her appearance from ONE picture to define her. Which i find absolutely trivial. I just don't get it.

I do understand that people like to joke around. I like the fact that the community can be very chill and laidback, but sometimes the things people say sound so... backwards. I feel that sometimes people say the things they say to get a laugh and that's understandable, but at the same time we have to realize that we are making fun of someone, just for a measly upvote.

Is it really worth it?

I don't think so. I've been made fun of and let me tell you, it kind of makes you feel unimportant. I don't know if you've ever been bullied, but its usually because of the way you look, sound, or act. We are all trying to find our place in this world and judging a book by its cover just seems "prehistoric."

I just want to say that I'm not trying to damn any of you. I want you to think about the severity of the things you say. Every action we take has consequences. So, please be wary of the things you say. Sometimes the weight of your words can be quite heavy.

Thank you for listening and good luck on the rift. fyi ZYRA RULES!!!!Zyra

just a sugestion, when were talking to a rioter whos responsibilities aren't as obvious as "map designer", maybe give a brief description of their job.

RiotZwill7 votes

Hey There ExoNautic!

We usually let folks explain what it is they do in their intro once the thread is live. Either way though, thank you for the feedback!

Sneak Dog5 votes

Might want to do that ahead of time so people can think of relevant questions ahead of time.

Or you don't because you've too many questions anyway.

Why didn't riot let her have her own jinx skin. Shes beautiful!

Godaren4 votes

AQA4734 votes

I have a rule when it comes to buying skins: I only buy one if I'm going to use it and I'm only going to use it if it's better than the classic skin. Now, that means most skins are open to me buying them, then it just becomes an issue of which skin to get. But, there are two champions that challenged that rule and those are (were?) Vi and Jinx. My favorite style is the punk/alternative/goth style and seeing it represented in games is very exciting. The classic skins for both Vi and Jinx were extremely compelling and appealing, so I avoided all of their skins until...

Vi got the Debonair skin and I cannot turn down a dapper-looking Vi in a suit. She keeps the punk aesthetic while also looking very cultured and falling into a very nice looking skin series.

Jinx had the flapper and Firecracker skins which are both good but don't beat out that punk girl in her original design. They keep the attitude, not the outfit, which is what a skin is (we're literally buying costumes). Then they released Slayer Jinx. It's a zombie punk skin. It totally fits her aesthetic, her craziness, features new SFX, a propane tank with dynamite strapped to it for an ultimate, and other like-personalized effects.

I, too, main Jinx (one of the three champs I have at level 5 mastery) and I adore the skin. It's very fun, sexy, colorful, and all those delightful things we enjoy about Jinx. I honestly don't know why it's generating so much distaste.

Damn, all the compliments about her looks but not her work, tough crowd.

McRib is Back BB17 votes

There are a lot of people asking what "creator support specialist" entails. Can't compliment someone on their work if you don't know what it is.

"Hey, good job specializing in creator support" sounds kind of forced. "I love your hair" is at least based on something you know.
