Yerp.

Top page history fact:
Today, May 6th in 1875 the SS Ben-my-Chree, a paddle-steamer boat was launched from a port in Douglas, Isle of Man. It would have an uneventful 31 year term of service before being broken down for scrap.

It's ridiculous you cant report even low level mods like them, someone like Plexa or Manlyfesto I can see not being able to report but writers and stuff? Should be able to report them because Cheep/Roffles have been shitposting in the league threads for a really long time


What was (still is) dumb about it is that Cheep and Roffles were doing the same shit (I'd argue Cheep was worse) but Roffles could be banned because he was former staff, while Cheep got away with it because he's active staff.

I'm hoping that Plexa post means no more Cheep cancer. Fingers crossed.


To be fair, much of their "toxicity" was aimed at other people making shitty posts or stupid points.

I don't necessarily support the way they went about it, but their intention wasn't entirely malicious. They actually care about the scene and don't want stupid ideas perpetuated, especially here on TL, where we're supposed to be a higher quality of forum. From the bits and pieces I've read of GD occasionally, that higher quality isn't necessarily there. Not saying it's always bad, but I've read more than my fair share of stupid things.

Shitposting begets shitposting. And the cycle continues.

Speaking of which I was just informed of the number of mod actions I have. Eek.

Their writing style is so similar I sometimes didn't even realize it was the other posting. Guess with the icon and writing style it's easy to get confused lol.

I think MMR resets are fun. It lets you feel like you're smurfing for a little bit without the 'harm'(subjective) of actually smurfing. Especially in games that use the system League made popular(lvl 1-30 to 'learn' the game before ranked becomes an option). Sure it creates some chaos to begin with because teams are a total crapshoot balance wise, but it works itself out.

Yeah, the chaos will be interesting, and more fun than normals probably. I'm sure there will be raging, but the tears will be delicious.

If less cancer is desired, then this sub forum needs to start chemo ASAP

'Tis is bad idea to venture out of the off topic thread into the other parts of TL LoL. I did that a few days ago and got a harsh reminder lol.

Essentially, favoritism for past staff has ended and there's little to no room for outright shitposting like what Roffles/Cheep have done over the past few months. Their premise was that there is often bad and inaccurate posts from other TL LoL users like Ketara, wei2coolman, etc that it somehow justified their ways of "toxic" posting to get their point across. I'll take the brunt of the blame with how the situation arose because I was simply too lenient with both parties. Like what Soniv mentioned, there are an alarming number of inaccurate posts in GD and that needs to end.

Feel free to report posts in GD about the game that don't make sense. The moderators obviously won't warn or ban a user for having an incorrect idea but it definitely should not be perpetuated further.

We should make a TL Smite subforum and make me and Soniv mods. I would be a kind, benevolent god mod.

Everyone should yell at Yango for saying we were going to do newbie/smurf stacks and then not doing them. What a jerk that guy is.

It's less about realizing how fun it is, and more about having to learn another MOBA.

I love dota, but I'm probably not going to start playing it much because I'd have to relearn everything. Smite wasn't too bad of a transition when I started on it because I jumped on in the first half of the beta, so there weren't too many gods and things to learn.
