Boards Do Not Have Much Activity As Forums

Not only does it take a long time to receive a comment, but there aren't as many posts either. I am outraged at this fact, as it was interesting to see a variety of people online at one time, and be provided a variety of players to communicate with.

I am not sure how this can be fixed, but I'd prefer if Riot could make boards more active, or revert back to forums for the activity to come back.

Right so, here is the most basic communication concept on anything curated by Riot:

#Community Activity is Dictated by Riot Activity

Want to know how to fix it? It's not up to the community, it's up to Riot. The more Riot communicates meaningfully, the more community presence there will be on this platform.

There's your answer. :P

The entire format of this garbage feels terrible. Very reddit-like. Horrible color scheme and interface. There's nothing to do but go back to a traditional forum format. Other than that, nothing will help revive this graveyard.

Because they are reddit and the color scheme is awful.

I mus say i wish me the old forum back. Dont like the reddit style and well Riot is not that active since a year on the forum and this board... Iam from the EUW and must say in Season 1 and 2 there were more rioter online, now they are almost gone... ZenonTheStonic is in the creative team and left the community managment. no one followed into his steps.... I think something went wrong. Where are the Community Managers and the other rioters which we saw long time ago here? Also i think this board style makes it harder to find the right stuff. Dont know.... I want the old forum back.

One of the biggest things that can help would be for more people to actually change the sort every now and again. I fear too many people leave it on Best or Hot, and it basically just perpetuates the topics that already have a lot of attention. If more people would switch to New or Recent more often, then some new threads might have a chance at surviving a bit better.

This board is boring.

Dota 2 doesn't have a real forum either, so I guess Riot wanted to copy them? Idk.

This is a very real problem that needs to be addressed. Unfortunately there aren't enough board members to bump this thread into heaven fast enough. Reds where are you!!! There should be an ask for Red button.

I just want GD back. I miss my daily dose of general League QQ. Gee Dee is full of unrelated crap about computers, cafes, and non-league things. WHERE IS THE SECTION DEDICATED TO LEAGUE QQ?

Riot put all the junk threads no1 cares about like "look for x team" so 90% of the threads on the front page arn't troll or rage threads like old gd.

I miss gd :(
