Ummm, what?

I just got a notification saying a post I made in "Story and Art" was removed. The post was about how I loved the music. I said something along the lines of "I love the music, I hope there's more coming, TY Riot! :D" Last I heard, music is art, and it's not like I was disrespecting Riot, I was thanking them.

So, uh, why?

Hey there B1naryB0t! Just wanted to drop in since I happen to be reading the boards atm and saw your issue. If your content was removed by one of the moderators, chances are the comment belonged in the "Sound & Music" section. It's mostly an organizational thing :D

The team that handles what you say you complimented typically visit the section I mentioned above, and I'm sure they'd love the feedback! Sorry if it caused any confusion!

Thanks for clearing this up. IMO it should've been moved or just left alone, it's not like I was spamming or cluttering a board, I just posted something in a logical place. Stupid IMO.

Regardless, thank you again for clearing this up, have a good day.

The system in place here uses deletion as the lowest level of addressing content, unfortunately. You are of course welcome to repost in Sound & Music, but within the guidelines the music isn't technically considered Art.

Heads-up: this comes across as really dense and cryptic.

Err, it has too much specialized language for what the average person is looking for.

Fair point. To restate:

On the Boards, the only method moderators seem to have for making sure posts are in the right place/follow the rules is deletion. Music isn't considered to fit in the Story & Art board because it only refers to visual art rather than fine arts in general.

"lowest level of addressing content" is something a dev would say, not something your average joe would say.

didn't even know we had a sound and music section...

Each team at Riot seems to have their own space to talk to players in, doubt it is a philosophical statement that music isn't art :)

I remember this person commenting about the exact same thing before. "music is art, so why was my post removed in the art section, even though there's clearly a sound and music section". lol. Second time seeing this post.
