Riot, it's time to give GD the attention it needs.

Look at this quote from one of the LoL subreddit's mods:

http://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1y9chg/this_scumbag_community_doesnt_deserve_iron_stylus/cfipuxr

While we have 10,000s of moderator actions across our team every month, reports help us catch many posts as our community grows.

Riot, please give GD the actual god damn moderation it needs. A community this large does not deserve to have only 5 mods that don't even know the rules of these forums, and if you aren't willing to hire official forum moderators, give us the tools to report posts to people who will actually take care of it.

I'm sick and tired of this crap being widespread, that GD is inherently vile and cancerous and cannot be cured no matter what. All playerbases are full of raging twattycakes that will gladly bang everyone's mothers in front of each other. The only difference is that WELL-MODERATED playerbases are more polite and constructive while also preventing the aforementioned cancerous posts from happening, or from lasting forever as they do now because of the lack of moderation we have.

EDIT: fixed link. I'm bad at copy-pasting.

You can already tell there clearly is no good moderation in the GD if Ventose is still around but Pluto Nash got perma'd in 1 shot for a joke.

There's still the issue with the shitty, outdated format where it's very time consuming to follow an actual discussion across 10 or 20+ pages in a topic because different "sub-discussions" within the are spread all over the different pages. I know a lot of people don't like the nested comments on the beta community, but it's far easier to follow efficiently.

I completely agree with you that more and better moderation is necessary to mainatain a healthy forum, but wasn't part of the reason for making the new ones that they could develop better systems for doing just that in an efficient manner?

Please delete the GD and force everyone to use community beta.

Thanks for listening!

Yeah I agree give mods that aren't invisible like Evelynn

IonCannonKarthus2/19/2014, 1:59:53 AM2 votes

Yes, moderation that is actually visible and logical would be perfect.

I like how ALL the replies to that quote ask for ways to report cirkle-jerking.

And Riot wants to emulate THIS? and force it on a community that doesn't go there for the obvious reason?

I hope they don't expect sugar cookies...

Hell, even 4chan has brilliant moderation. Quite saddening.

+1 for "twattycakes."

But also because you're absolutely right.

Colonel J2/19/2014, 7:12:18 AM1 votes

I agree.
