so, there is no coverage currently and you are scared that this absence will be ruined? TL getting a team would be a huge chance for this subforum.
also, its not that the lol staff got very much support from this subcommunity either. there used to be great articles with like, 3 or 4 comments under them and no discussion.
e: what do you mean with forcing the community to break up? the lol subforum is very isolated from the rest of the main games

Frontpage coverage of LoL would lead to an influx of new reddit-scum/Official LoL GD users that would result in a general decline in posting quality akin to that on LH/LD.
Of course, that wouldn't really be much of a change by now given how the posting quality of this subforum sort of declined over time to begin with (RIP Roffles).

You are getting way to ahead of yourself here.

Also TL getting a team does not mean it will get coverage, just look at smash

It's actually grammatically correct, which is becoming rare with this expression these days.
And I'm more concerned with the opportunity to prove how much lower the posting standard could become should TL officially support LoL beyond simply picking up a team. People forgot what happened to the forums with SC2 it seems. And we've gone to shit for sure, but you can always do worse.

More likely everything would go completely to shit, then they'd dedicate a bunch of extra mods and have a purge, ketara would be banned to make an example to new users, and we'd all have to stop shitposting

We had this. Liquid staff just didn't support it until everyone gave up on writing them anymore. If liquid wants to get a lol team then so be it but they must leave the forums alone after all the shit they have done. Don't want them ruining what works. yeah, great articles about ogn will ruin the sophisticated tl lol general discussion. Sigh. Getting a team(Which is 100% rumours atm) won't suddenly make coverage appeara. People, volunteers are the ones that produce the content and guess what, they USED to have fantastic OGN coverage and LCS coverage. TL admin just didn't support it at the time so most of the guys either lost passion or moved on to write at other places. Look at TL HS or Dota, both are primarily volunteer based even though TL has a team. Hell I think HS only really gets active content because Monk is a huge beast. I think Fionn still does stuff every now and then but doubt guys will just come back because TL says "our bad guys we totally love you and respect your content now". Anyway again I don't really care about them picking up a team, just don't really want them to pull a TLDota where they forced the community to break up.
I think the big difference here is TLDota and TLHS got extra sites in part BECAUSE they had tons of users making lots of great content. The sites were a result of users putting out tons of content, and just gave them a better platform. TL LoL had people putting out content, and if TLLOL had become a site then, it likely would have continued, but now that they've gone to other places/stopped writing, throwing a new url at empty space won't make another writing team appear.

But then Cheep would come back and set everything right, right?

How about, to protect the fragile ecosystem which we inhabit, we get to vet new users.
Every time new tl account registered gets one post to prove their worth, then the OT thread gets 24 hours to judge their value as a human being, and vote on whether they should be allowed to join us.

Dangerous. They could be sleeper agents that seem good at first, but then suddenly their programming kicks in and, against their will, they pull out a gun in middle of OT and shoot Commander Adama Neo.
THERE ARE TWELVE MODELS
THERE ARE MANY COPIES!!!!
