@Riot, Why Do You Ignore Some Of The Best Rated Story Threads? What Was the Point Of The New Boards?

For some reason, Rioters are avoiding commenting on some of the highest rated threads in the story and art boards, especially threads that are against the retcon.

These threads are highly upvoted because players want to discuss these issues with Riot, yet most of them go ignored.

Riot what gives? Why ignore your playerbase?

You made boards would allow for player opinion to matter more, and you are squandering that potential. Why?

Walked in here expecting you to have cursed, since they were downvoting you. Found nothing but a perplexed young'un.

The most horrible thing about the 'real world' is how sensitive adults are about anyone insinuating they don't do a good job. Players making stories for them to read makes their income feel threatened. Without income, they don't have their own life as they know it, so they just walk by here, press downvote and move on... to be similarly passive aggressive with their co-workers the next day.

Stay a kid.

Hey Impetual, mind if I say something to you?

I do think your arguments are legit, and you have a good reason to keep on Riot with your questions, but I feel that you're repeating yourself, far more than you should.

A lot of your posts have the same tone, and to an extent ask the same questions, although worded differently. Because of this, I offer one alternative: Make one board, and post a good long rant.

I'll admit: I'm one of those guys who likes reading people's rants on the internet. I get bored sometimes. I've written long posts as well, and I think that if you make a good argument, it's one that the community will read. Will Riot read it? I'm no fortune teller; can't say for sure.

But I do think it's better than you posting a whole bunch of posts to neutral/negative responses. By the way, keep heart. I'm sure Riot looks at your posts more than they do mine. Just saying.

No red comments on a thread doesn't mean they aren't looking or reading the boards frequently. You cannot know what they're actually looking at, but insinuating they don't look at all and are just ignoring the whole board is pretty ignorant, considering they have actually came in here and spoken before. Was it in the threads you wanted them to talk in? Apparently not, but they came here and talked, and are probably still reading threads all the time.

The lore team consists of seven chimpanzees with typewriters... you can't expect them to post on the boards, do you? Having them write lore seems already too much for them...

It is simple: Riot realize that "best story" spam is actually spam, and like all spam it is ignored by all beside by other spam/lore fanboys.
