is it that hard to just ignore? you have the power to distance yourself from ignorance and stupidity. It's also just not healthy to read everything and value every post equally. I just scroll down a page in GD skimming and then selectively read what I think is interesting.

I'm very happy with the state of this forum atm, it's a good community and we have great discussions. People coming in and posting ignorant/stupid stuff takes away from that and makes it hard to focus on discussion.

It's not so much the content but the arguing that kills it for me. Discussion is great, arguments just distract.

this then goes back to the discussion from weeks back about a "serious" discussion thread with only quality posts backed by numbers and replays. I don't know enough about internet forum community development to comment further.

This is especially true if they use some sort of dynamic pricing system.

hmm this is actually a really interesting idea. I wonder what algorithm airlines use to adjust ticket prices by demand and supply. an interesting startup idea would to be create a inventory/pricing service that you can license out to online retailers (inb4 this already exists).

It does for concert venues, which is a better parallel.

Like the near future as in 20k post future? The moment you descend from the heavens and begin to smite and cleanse the lol sub forum, wielding the majestic ban hammer in all its might. Causing us to forever remember the moment Neo "the chosen one" saved us and brought forth a brighter future for us all to enjoy.

Let it be known. TL LoL 2.0 is upon us!

All ye who enter this subforum, give up hope in thy LoL General Discussion. Take shelter from the raging storm with the calming breeze of the Off Topic GD. Praise be to Pokemon, Praise be to Bowflexing and getting swole. Praise be to Neo who grants us our daily thread.

Amen. Raise your Dongers.

At least riot doesn't have a store system where you can immediately sell the tickets you just bought for 6x their face value
Though riot probably won't have a gun that literally shoots skins into your account from your pass either
When in doubt, just believe in yourself and press buttons

The thing about people constantly giving bad advice and being respected, it kinda makes me want to not post anything. It's not just a masturbatory thing, where I would like to be appreciated for good advice, but giving advice just doesn't feel particularly helpful, because it oftentimes gets drowned in shit.

I don't feel like advice is particularly useful unless it's some direct, specific advice over the course of time that is monitored and adjusted with feedback.

I also think that the IHs have dramatically boosted this community. The more in-game experience, the better.

That's been my experience with most gaming scenes, it's always the ones that put in time playing the game and develop community with direct interaction that end up being the most successful. The ones that spend time arguing over internet forums and stuff never seem to go anywhere.

As far as shitposting goes, I feel that it contributes to a negative community that is always bitching and defending, and that is far more worse than whatever crappy strategy or advice it is. It also explains why I've been supportive of off-topic, because it gets people to be adopt a more friendly and helpful attitude.

Yeah, the NA TL IHs is the best thing that happened to TL LoL. It really does seem like a great way to get some serious premade experience and just get better thanks to the advice of better players.

I think you underestimate the amount of readers that will read something that a respected member of the forum posts, but not actually respond to - they'll just think "hmm, that is interesting, maybe i'll try it out," or whatever. Like anyone who has been on this fourm for awhile knows who the good posters are and follows what they say.

Your tips were really helpful yesterday! Would love to see you in the IHs, but I'm guessing lag from czech would be fucking horrible.

Takes at least 1-2 months to figure out who's the big dudes on the block are. Who gives good ideas, and who gives PX-tier ideas.
