Anyone else getting tired of reading their large and detailed posts there? I just found out via surrender@20 that via Reddit Phreak gave detailed feedback regarding some nerfs. Not saying he has to copy paste, but you'd think that their own forums would be top priority. As a lore fan, maybe I'd have better luck talking to the narrative team over there.
Daen10 votesFun tidbit, Tryndamere did an AMA about communication on reddit. There were no references at all on the Boards until someone called him out on it. Even then, the AMA was never brought to the Boards platform officially.
An AMA on communication was not communicated on the official communication platform. Because logic.
While I understand Riot's desire to allow Rioters to post where they please and direct their comments to those that initially initiated the conversation, it makes zero sense to me that so much happens elsewhere without any references to the Boards. Seeing as it's, y'know, the official communication platform.
It's very questionable that Surrender @ 20 has significantly better Red Tracker functionality than Riot. It pulls from multiple sites and amalgamates important information, whereas the Boards Red Tracker is only a tiny slice of what matters.

To be fair, he hosted that AMA because someone on Reddit asked him to host it. If someone on Boards had asked him have the AMA, he's probably have done it here. I think it's fine that he did it there.
I don't think it's fine that it wasn't also mirrored or red-tracked here, like Sweet has since done with some of Lyte's reddit posts.

This and This.

This is absolutely the case, but it does not change the fact it was not (and still hasn't been) included on the Boards.

Funny you should mention that, because following the thread I linked earlier a thread popped up with significant support asking Tryndamere to do a similar AMA on the Boards. No response.
I'm not bitter about this, but it's like Riot isn't even considering the Boards to be a valid medium despite all the work they have put into it. I'm a little concerned.

Agreed, that's the main point that thread was going for.

I may be remembering wrong, but I thought Trynd replied to those comments and was basically like "Yo, ask away right here," and proceeded to answer several questions on that thread.
Daen1 votesMajorPain93 votesSorry to feel your frustration dude, but they have responded to this before with a "we realize this but" post on one of mine addressing this topic. Same spheel about "ways to integrate information" "soon" "are you actually buying this?" crap. I hate to say this but its falling on deaf ears. Don't take a riots word they will address it.

I dunno, I think they have a pretty good record of addressing things.
What they don't have a good record of is getting around to them in a timely manner.
