Why can't we discuss politics in the miscellaneous section of the boards? Miscellaneous is meant to be about whatever doesnt fit the other categories so you cant say its off topic. Its not really inappropriate (meaning it doesnt really take someones innocence away if they see it) so theres that. Yeah it can create strong differences about people but if people dont want to engage in politics, dont read/post political subjects on the forums. And even then, there can be some great, healthy conversation about politics. it just doesnt make sense to me that we arent allowed to post about politics. it is miscellaneous after all.

No. it's a heated topic. Why not let people talk about Christianity vs Islam? Abortion vs not? Death penalty?

it's not the place to discuss that. Go elsewhere. I'm sure there are plenty of political forums.

You'll want to review the Universal Rules. They clearly state under Inappropriate Discussions that political posts are not OK in the Miscellaneous section.

Because it would cause tons of drama. Plus this is a gaming board (mostly).

riot employees are your typical butthurt political correctness folks. Anything you say against them will get u banned. Just wait for Donald Trump to get elected though. Make America Great Again 2016!

This is the internet, talking about politics is risky and heated. Plus the League community gets mad enough already, don't need more debating xD

I can tell you why. It's because players can't seem to be civil while playing the game. Imagine how cutthroat a political thread would be.
