Riot, we need the New Player Forum back!

I spend a significant portion of my forum time in the New Player Forum, helping out players who are new to the game, new to PvP, new to ranked, or just struggling to understand the game or improve. Looking at the new categories for these boards, I do not see any category that jumps out as a place for new players to get help with basic game concepts. Champions & Skins might be a suitable place to ask "I've been doing good on Ashe, who should I get next?". Maps & Modes might be an okay place to ask how to get started jungling, or why having a jungler is better than having two top. Miscellaneous is the only one that looks even remotely suitable for saying "I've only done custom games so far, I'm scared to do a Beginner Co-op game because what if I do bad and make us lose?"

NPF has a really good group of folks who create a welcome atmosphere for new players, and provide answers that make sense for someone who hasn't been both playing games and watching LCS for years. It's a place where someone can post "I started ranked and I am losing so many games, I don't know what to do" and get 8 or 9 sincerely helpful answers before someone chimes in with "git gud nub"...rather than the other way around. If a new player comes to these boards, they're not going to find any section that is obviously for them. They risk asking a question and getting answers that are either completely unintelligible to them or incorrect for someone of their experience level e.g. "You shouldn't be playing Cho'Gath at all, he is trash tier".

The absence of a category for new players—or for Helping Players, which NPF basically boiled down to—is a large omission and I hope that someone from Riot sees this and can give an explanation for why NPF didn't survive the transition to these new boards. Thank you for reading.
