Is there any point in posting?

Darkinlegend··5 votes·933 views

I have seen Riot respond ONE time to posts that Aatrox mains have over the last year, and it was to post of mine (different account).

Why do we post? If Riot does indeed read them and consider what the player say then god damn respond and acknowledge it so we know you are actually reading the posts.

Dont mistake old Riot for new Riot. Old (smaller) Riot cared about the player base opinions...new mega cash mongering Riot cares about nothing other than $$. Literally.

They make it painfully obvious. 1.3 billion revenue...up from 200 million only several years ago...and yet, much remains the same.

You know they are because they post all over the boards. First off, you think every post deserves a response? We'll start with I doubt they go onto any thread titled any form of "Fuck you rito QQ" because it's just some hateful thread. They don't tend to respond tons on the same topic, and therefore repeating themselves over and over. I highly doubt that their only job is to sit on these threads too man. I rarely see them post on volatile threads. "then god damn respond and acknowledge it" like that. See? You say things like that, but want them to talk to you? Shit, I'd ignore you too if I were them. People seem to think that just because Riot owns League that their employees answer to the players. Wrong. Their employees answer to the people who sign their checks. How bout I walk into your job out of nowhere and start telling you you're doing everything wrong and how you had better do it instead, and if you don't I'm going to loudly bitch about it until it drives you crazy? I doubt you'd like that. Also, there's a red tracker link. Just click it because half the time they don't respond because they've already answered those questions, and aren't wasting their time saying the same shit over and over. Riot is not obligated to talk to anyone ever. They do it to be nice, and because they care. People just forget that they are outnumbered thousands to one. Anyways, I expect you to post some form of reply on every single thread in every single forum for the next three days (I'll be watching for you), if you don't, you are a hypocrite, plain and simple.

I would be a hypocrite for not responding to every post? I don't own this game or the company. That is one of the stupidest things I've ever heard anyone say.

Furthermore, on my other account I had a post about Aatrox that had around 6k views....should THAT on get a response? With a couple hundred comments? At what point does a post warrant their precious time? It wasn't hostile in nature, it was well thought out and methodical and polite.

Riot is not obligated to respond? Sure, if they want to be a douche company that want to communicated with their customers. But in reality, they kinda are obligated--they sales and player base would fast dwindle if players felt like they were a faceless, no communicating company.

Look pal, you said really stupid things in your reply, and you should think about how wrong you are. You walking into my job, out of nowhere is not the same as a customer writing on a company provided forum. How can you even compare the two? They are nothing alike---your stupidity is mind boggling. Go get some life experience because only someone who doesn't could perceive reality in such a warped manner. Also, don't ever respond to any of my future posts. Ever.

First off, I'm not your pal. I only keep intelligent friends. Riot doesn't care if you think they are a douche any more than I care that you think my reply was stupid. I knew you'd think that when I said it. People who talk the way you talk have a habit of thinking only from their singular viewpoint. To address your question about the 6K views. Views have nothing to do about it. What was the content? Did it contain a bunch of riot hate? That will get you upvotes, but it sure as hell won't get Riot on your thread. You talk as though you have impunity. Well, I'm not the one confused am I? You are, that's the whole point of this post. You don't get it, and you want someone to explain it. Well, that's why. If you can't listen, then don't ask questions. Bottom line. I'm guessing you get in trouble for being toxic a lot and wonder why don't you.

Darkinlegend1 votes

I clearly implied it didn't include riot hate in the content.

How about you read before you respond? And you suggest I have a singular view point? You are a joke.

Riot hate gets upvotes? Um no, they always get downvoted to oblivion. Remember that thing I mentioned about you having a skewed view of reality?

Good job on another response that has nothing to do with anything I've said.

Everything you just said was incorrect. You're letting your anger get the best of you, and it's obvious. Maybe this game isn't good for you. Some people can't handle it. Like how an angry drunk shouldn't drink even if they like drinking. Well, you're an angry gamer (maybe just League specifically) so perhaps you should consider finding a new hobby that makes you happy. This one obviously doesn't since almost every post you make (I checked) is hateful and not very well thought out. Of course, you aren't going to listen, and it's obvious that you refuse to let me bring you up to my level. However, I'm not going to stay down here on your level anymore if it's obvious that you won't follow me back up. Our interactions are over, I truly hope you find happiness one day because this version of you is not happy. Somewhere deep down you know that's true. Hell, it's probably not even that deep down considering that it's blatantly obvious to me off of this little bit of interaction. For the record, don't feel too bad about it, most people who play this game shouldn't because it makes them unhappy, but just like with drugs, they convince themselves that this is what they want. I wish you nothing but the best in this struggle you are having.

Just so we're clear before we leave, I am a drug addiction counselor with a major in Psychology. It's literally my job to identify these traits in people. You really should listen to the things I just said. You'll have to address it eventually, they always do. The sooner you address it, the easier it is for you.

No, based off a few sentences that were typed I can't make that kind of analysis. However, I can make that kind of analysis after having read all of your posts dating back as far down as my screen would allow me to see them. That much typing? Yes, I can do it with that much typing. Check this out, I can also figure this out about you. You're last 3 or so messages to me weren't you arguing with me, they were you trying to convince yourself that I am wrong by attempting to discredit me. That's why you repeat yourself over and over. Repetition is usually ones attempt to either remember something or convince someone (even themselves at times) to believe a falsified version of reality. I had no intentions of coming back. However, I picked my career because I care, and you seem like someone who needs to be cared about. My career does teach me that you can only help one who wants help. Once it's obvious that they don't want help then all you can do is tell them that you'll be there for them when they're ready, and that while you won't abandon them, there isn't anything that can be done until they're ready other than support them and be there when they are in need. Getting there hopes up that they can be helped before it's realistic does way more damage than anything can since it can rip the hope out of them. Kind of a dark truth, but a truth nonetheless. While I do care, and would be there for you if you weren't someone over the internet, there is nothing I can do to help you because you are not ready for help. Rest assured, you do need to actively do something about this. Vent to a friend. Find a new hobby. Hell, when it comes to anger, you'd be surprised how often it's a result of having too much energy contained (that's the biggest reason so many people that play this game have anger issues btw, because they sit at their computer never using their stored up energy so they become frustrated) so maybe you should take up a physical activity. Anyways, I did want you to know that I'm not leaving frustrated, bothered, or annoyed. You don't have that kind of power. Until you can learn to control yourself you will not have that kind of power. All the power that you think you have is only in your head. Honestly, when people realize that is when they are ready to heal. You need to find some time to meditate on this man. It would do you a world of good. Or....post a bunch of hateful shit, and remain angry. Beyond this point, you will remain in your anger alone. Being upset only affects you. You are the only one not having a good time because of it. You are literally punishing yourself for nothing. I wish you nothing but the absolute best, and that you get everything you want in life.

P.S. I apologize if you took offense to anything I said. My goal is not to offend you, but to help you. I've never been one to sugar coat, and honestly, in my line of work, people know when you're lying or taking it easy on them and they either lose trust for you (trust being extremely important) or they try to walk all over you (which is also bad since they'll see it as a false sense of power which perpetuates the addiction). Not everything I say makes everyone smile, but everything I say is truthful. All you have to do is listen. I intentionally made this long so that you understand that I care enough to put this much time into it. However, until you are ready for help, you will just continue to be angry. While you can overcome these things yourself, I do advise letting someone know about it as a support system. "Hey man, I'm trying to play less video games (or league, or whatever other vices you might have) because they make me upset. While I'm not cutting them out of my life, I would like it if we could find a non-video game activity to take up. I think it would help me be a happier person in general, and we'd have fun". Something that simple. If you ever truly want to discuss these things (I won't accept hateful conversation, only positive forms of speech, that's always the rule) then I will honestly be willing to help you out. I do recommend someone you either know or can physically see in person because there's not much one can do about things like this from online, but nonetheless, I'm willing to offer my assistance to you. I know you won't take me up on it, but sometimes just knowing you have the option is what gets the ball rolling. I wish you the best, and have a wonderful day. :)

So you don't want to skype? Your offer was BS?

Darius Bøt1 votes

Not only that, but since it's a business I can imagine they have written agreements of nondisclosure/non-interaction with the player base that makes the game look bad in its current form.

just saw this, are you posting related to the new hacking stuff that's been going on? or something different?
