Am I the only one that thinks this?

It seems that Riot rarely listens to suggestions on the boards, when they are all suggestions from people who more than likely play the game more than them. Or, they would only change things that aren't released.

I see FANTASTIC ideas on the board, but I think that Riot is afraid to go through with them because they are player suggested. This doesn't seem healthy to further/fix the game (depending on your point of view)

I do however understand them not looking at the threads titled "BLANK CHAMP IS BROKEN FIX RIOT" But some examples seem quite simple, like the vote on having more bans in ranked.

I hope this doesn't point fingers, but Riot, you've always been 100% focused on the happiness of your playerbase, When did that stop?

You think they are fantastic ideas, but most of those ideas have been suggested long time ago, and riot stated why they wont implement it. But people keep opening threads about them. For example people keep suggesting that they shouldnt lose LP when they have afker in team, even tho RIOT stated they will never implement it due to many ways to abuse it. Also they suggest to kick people in lobby, which also Riot stated can be abused easily, and wont be implemented. I havent seen any fresh ideas in a while.

So let's say I make a gameplay thread. Games are to snowbally, too short, and decided at first blood. It gets 400 upvotes, sits on the hot page for a couple days. Riot sees it, looks at there player data of 27,000,000 unique players each day and determines that my post although popular here data says games are 30 seconds longer, gold difference at 15-20 minutes is less than that of season 5, and that teams with first blood are winning 50.5% of games.

Should they patch the game based on my anecdotal evidence or there vast amount of data?
