Why the lore isnt progressing

Guys I've figured it out, since the lore team said that they can not use any of fan-made content, what if the Lore isnt progressing because we post so many ideas here that coincidentally match what they had in mind, thus stopping them from using it. THINK about how much lore we are killing just by having discussions and prediction about it. Maybe Bards lore was originally an entire story, but they ahve to cut out any sentence that happens to resemble one of our mass guessing, leaving behind only FIVE SENTENCES. Stop guys. This boards needs to shut down so it can't interfere with Riot's creative freedom anymore TL:DR: Save a Lore, Stop Posting

Edit: Man you guys don't know what sarcasm is don't you?

TL;DR - Riot hates community interaction.

So what you're saying is we should explicitly suggest all the things except the old Lore and make sure it's shoved so much in their faces they can't use it?!

SWEET!

The lore team workroom has been refitted into an executive money bath a long time ago. Even though they have "rebooted" the lore, the "team" is actually just 3 hobos leeching wifi from a starbucks, hence the delay, they often get found and must relocate to another unsuspecting starbucks,

That or they just aren't writing anything.

But your idea is good too man!

They can't use any of our ideas and input due to legal reasons.

But you have to remember that they have THE worst lore team in video games currently. With as little lore they're putting out, I'm surprised they weren't all fired long ago. Telling the community that the stories they first fell in love with were now meaningless. Telling us to shut up and go buy some skins.

Bullshit, they just dont have anything good to show us so they are making up false reassurances for us so that will continue playing their lore-less game. Lore is not their focus at all at the moment, they are focusing more on making their game the best e-sport MOBA out there.

If they are really hindered by the fact that fans make better lore than they do then hire some of those fans and give them full creative freedom to fix the lore.

Also:

{quoted}

Too Quote Picasso "Good artists copy, great artists steal." To put it in perceptive for great authors how much did their ideas come from some before them. Most Fansity is defined GREATLY by the works of J.R.R Tolken and he borrowed a LOT from historical myths and lore. So to put it perspective rito. STOP BEING PRICKS AND THINKING YOU CAN BE TRULY ORIGINAL. There is no such thing its how well you dress it up and make a new spin on things and combine different story concepts. That is why I hate this lore situation their excuse is BS and its prideful and not something good authors ever say. Authors talk all the time about what inspired them all the time for the next story and RIOT has whole a community willing and able to help them. Come on you got the legal ground work to clam anything posted on the forums so what is the problem?

Stop beating around the bloody bush you worked your selves into a corner and tried to recon out of it only to nuke everything and leave us nothing instead of brain storming may the Institute of War is shady and not quite the good peace loving organization that it says it is or something like that. Come on Riot your not even fan fic level of writers at this point just corp check the box descriptions that are not even good at that..

I beg to differ. Why does voli and zilean hate each other???--The community of course.

The Ruined King's story??? The community of course.

Come on Narrative, Stop Contradicting your selves

Or, they can ignore the boards. Seems counter-productive, but at this point, if it brings a good story in,

By any means necessary.

Yeah, I wonder what ever do they do if someone guesses right.

Kinda seems like the QA team has a similar policy... :(
