Why does Riot delete your posts for being in the wrong board?

When they don't give clear descriptions on what belongs in each board?

Try not to think about it in terms of right or wrong. Think "is this content relevant to a community?" If you're posting a Champion concept in Maps & Modes, you've probably added content that isn't relevant to that community, and to preserve the focus of that community, it then makes more sense for us to delete it than to let it ride.

Have to agree. So many things seem like they don't have a proper board for it and they are forced to go in miscellaneous which is full of everything.

I think the idea behind it is that Riot doesn't want to encourage people to post their content in the wrong section out of laziness or wanting to attract different traffic. There's also the reasoning that moving threads is significantly more work than deletion.

I just went to Team Recruitment boards and saw things regarding VUs and nothing to do with recruitment. These boards are so messy, I'd rather have true forums.

Hello, I have had an issue with this, but I know I need to put mine in a different board. Where would I put a post involving ideas for a nocturne update, after all of the classics get their well deserved tlc, it involves concepts for visual updates and backstory? It was taken off of the board feedback page, my bad for putting it there not realizing.

or before it is deleted, leave a message to the poster that post needs to go to board xxx and give you type to post it in the right board. But that would be too easy.
