Boards as a whole have very little activity

The amount of comments / views on pretty much any discussion, even riot-created ones, is SIGNIFICANTLY lower than anything pre-boards. What can be done to change this? Is everyone still so unhappy with the way these new boards operate?

I for one am incredibly tired if checking the forums maybe twice or three times in the same day to sadly see the same topics that have been there literally all day with almost nothing new added to them. This has nothing to do with those who are active on the forums, but I remember a time when GD could keep someone entertained for hours on end.

What is the hits per hour on the new boards? I'd legitimately be surprised if it were even 15-20% the amount of old GD alone. I guess the whole point of this thread is, what exactly was to be gained with the forum change? Were these changes worth the tremendous loss in activity? I don't know if I would say so.

Because everyone hates the new boards. Everyone told Riot not to change them like this. But what did Riot do? They did it anyways, sat around for the next few hours giving each other congratulatory hand jobs and haven't looked back since.

If you change the sorting to "new" (chronological by posting date) or "recent" (GD style) instead of "hot," you'll get a much wider variety of posts.

Everyone has moved to other forums. If you want the same type of community or discussion I highly suggest you do the same.
