This may have been discussed before, but regarding the Elo-boosting bans and warnings, I think it's a bit overblown.

Playing on someone else's account and ruining games of players who are worse than you is the same as smurfing, which is (and should be) completely acceptable.
Which means that if you aren't per chance getting money for doing it, it's fine. If you are, however, then Riot will make a huge deal out of it and ban you. I can somewhat understand this, as getting an account to level 30 is a hassle, which prevents some people from doing it, but I would say that ruining the game for sub-30 players is much worse than the rating of players who are already in this game for good (there is no escape).

More importantly, duo-queuing with someone and getting paid for it is not okay, but if I don't get any money and do it with my "friends", it's suddenly acceptable? The people suffer the same, again. Maybe I just happen to have a "lot" of low-level friends that want to play with me, how is Riot going to know if I'm making money from it or not?

I guess the point of this post is (and I realize many people already know this, but I've already written too much for me to delete this) that this was pretty much only for show and to prevent people who think about it from taking the next step and doing it.
I also think it's pretty funny how serious people on Reddit are taking this, with everyone apologizing and swearing that such unacceptable behavior will never happen again. The more I think about it, though, it's more sad than funny.

In my opinion biggest difference between people who are able to jungle, and jungle well is the anticipation, some kind of jungler sense. Guess thats required in these roaming supports aswell. Tho these supports are almost completly forgotten. I also wonder why people stopped playing support alistar.

We just got a new patch on the chinese server, and they reverted the accept/decline change from waaaay back back to the old system of "finish waht you're doing (30 secs)/accept now". Is this chinese server only or did they change it on the main servers too?

EDIT: we got the Quinn patch (I think?) yesterday, to be specific

This is what happens after an Elo job.

The guy is platinum V but his mm has dropped so low that he is getting paired with silvers III and the like. I have the misfortune of playing a game with him on my team and it was a disaster he was 0/5/0 before lvl 6 and he told us that his current streak was of 19 loses.

Looks like he's just been tilting+has an unlucky streak - it's not even like he has bad scores in all his games.

Also he has good KDA's with a varied amount of champs over a lot of games which is unheard of if he got Elo boosted.

If you're actually 1800+, its like impossible to drop to silver which is < 1300. When my friends are on massive losing streaks from 1800 down to maybe 1500 and duo with me they're still dominating lane and getting fed enough to 1v2 the enemy jungle when he ganks and pretty much single handedly carries our team.
