Boards suggestion

Riot should create a different boards only allowed for certain divisions like plat+. That way we'd have more discussions that actually makes sense. Also it would help people who really wants to get real competitive in the game. And we could also discuss new metas and stuff.

In the distant future, when they roll out user-created boards, this might be something you'll be able to do (create your own board, that has a rank restriction to post there).

I see very few scenarios where rank-specific boards would be a benefit. Just because someone is Bronze or even Gold doesn't mean they don't understand gameplay mechanics, and restricting them from conversations really doesn't change anything about how much sense a discussion makes.

Idk. But rank restricted boards should be a thing. I'm sure it'll be more productive and less toxic than what boards is right now.

Would you care to provide reasoning as to why they should be a thing? Just saying "this should happen because this should happen" is not sound logic.

What makes you so sure such a mechanic will be more productive and less toxic? More importantly, how should we be defining what is 'productive' communication?

I don't like repeating myself so read above.

I estimate 90% of the total population of league are gold and below, and probably 70% of that is toxic. And on the remaining 10% of the population there's probably just a few toxic players left. Less toxicity = more productivity.

More importantly, how should we be defining what is 'productive' communication?

I would say it's productive if we could actually discuss about the mechanics, meta, off meta, ideas and stuff. Also there would be less complaining about their ranks, games and trolls.

What I see, as far as your reasoning here, is as follows:

  • We'd have more discussions that actually makes sense
  • It would help people who really wants to get real competitive in the game
  • We could also discuss new metas

The bottom two already happen, and you have not provided supportive evidence for the top one. This is why I asked for clarification.

I estimate 90% of the total population of league are gold and below

From what data are you pulling this estimate?

probably 70% of that is toxic

Same question as above.

on the remaining 10% of the population there's probably just a few toxic players left

Same question as above.

there would be less complaining about their ranks

If I have a club where I only allow the top 10% of wealthiest people in the world to join, of course there will be less people complaining about their money. This is basically the same thing, and I don't see how that would be useful in having a better experience.

http://www.lolsummoners.com/stats/na Idk if it's updated or accurate but it can't be that far from the statistics. Well since you still keep asking. The main goal, to be honest, is for people who are more skilled to be able to discuss stuff without the less skilled opinions. You see, this boards is always flooded with nonsense stuff and obvious questions so I think this suggestion should be considered. Anyway, I'm done explaining. If you still don't get it, then you have a problem yourself and I don't wanna help you anymore.
