RIOT actually pays you to quit the company within 60 days if you don't feel like it is a good place to work.

What price dedication and loyalty?

Seems like a good idea to me. Pretty smart.

For those of you that still play it, Summoner's Rift is getting a looooooooooooooooooong overdue face lift. However, note that it's still months away.

Riot shuts down LoL public chat rooms because they're such a mess.

3rd time I saw a game with a tryndamir win... but their team had Twitch, Fiddle, and Brand.... 3 of the hardest hitters on ARAM. So they made up for trynd.

Played quite a few different games this weekend just to see if anything stirred my interest again.

MW:O: Desperatly needs community warfare, until then i've gotten bored with the game.

Planetside 2: saw an article on PC gamer that said this game has come along way so i decided to try it again. This game actually has community warfare with a huge map and 3 different warring factions. Was fun, but i was getting my ass handed to me so it kinda supressed the fun. Hard game

Torchlight 2: Fun game, i had a good time playing this in short stints. Very underrated game

Borderlands 2: i need to play co-op to enjoy this game anymore

LOL: funny how after 3 years i still enjoyed this game the most.

What is this Sins of a Solar Empire game? looks like a RTS, not sure if i wanna get into another RTS game.

That post should probably be in the Multiplayer discussion.

This is a new thing, at the end of a game you can hit "Share" and it gives you a webpage showing how awesome you are.

Riot gagged me.

I can't have a little status message any more. Mine used to say "RIOT get no more $ from me" or something like that. That message is gone, along with the field where it would be entered.

Or, maybe the moved it. But, so far, it looks like they gagged me.

This might be due to the fact that Riot is changing the public chat rooms or any public messages i'm assuming.

I was on Saturday night and didn't notice any changes to those status messages, but none of my friends were on

and i don't usually post any status. But i know it was working not so long ago and if its gone now i'd assume its all apart of the chat room changes they are making.

Post by **Cakedaddy** » Mon Jul 14, 2014 9:39 am

I see other people's status messages. Mine is gone. Or, it's moved from where it used to be.

Stranger · Post by **Stranger** » Mon Jul 14, 2014 9:41 am

oh really? well then i'd have to think you've been gagged.

Jungle timers have been added to the game!

•Jungle timers currently track the next spawn time of: enemy / team Elder Lizard, enemy / team Ancient Golem, Dragon, and Baron
•Timers will only start tracking a camp if you or a teammate directly witness a monster camp being fully cleared (similar to minimap icons)
•If you manage to snipe Baron or Dragon without vision, the timer will set itself off
•You can access jungle timers by pressing TAB (default key) through the scoreboard. They'll be at the top of the screen.
•We've also updated monster minimap icons! Check them out!

Pretty cool new feature to Summoners Rift, you get a timer to see when jungle monsters/dragon/Baron respawn but only if you saw that monster die.

I had a bad night last night. Lots of losses (for my team, not me personally), and had a couple of the worst trolls ever. In that game I was a squishy Cass and we had a Rammus on our team, and one time I grabbed the health icon a second before him. I was at 20% health, he was at 80% health. He starts going off on me. And the other team had a zilean... Rammus starts rushing them, getting Zilean's bomb over his head, and he would Q to get me me as fast as he could so he could blow up on me. Killed me twice that way. When I called him on it his duo buddy Amumu started in how they were reporting me for negative attitude. And that they were going to rape me.

But even the other team was calling him on his bullshit, so it is fine.

But it was the only game I ever just gave up and sat in spawn at minute 15 because it just wasn't fun.

Doom bots!! They have a new, temp, version of bot games. I just played level one, of three. They play like normal bots, but all of their abilities are super charged. As in, they do multiples. As in, when Viegar drops the dark matter, instead of one pillar/explosion, there are three. Ez can be at his base and when he launches his ult down the middle, two others shoot down the other two lanes. Zyra was dropping 3 plants at a time. So, any projectiles were tripled and some times quadrupled. Made starting VERY hard because they are super OP. But once you get items, armor, resist, they become much more manageable. By mid game, we were doing pretty well. By level 16, we were acing them easily. But, that was level one. You can't play level two until you unlock it. I unlocked it after winning one game. Not sure if you have to win. Level three, is actually level 5. That is still locked for me. Have to do level two still.

Interesting spin. I was expecting bots with fast cool downs, lots of mana and health, etc. But when I saw the abilities were all jacked up, it made it more interesting.

However, seems like a LOT of work for something that's only going to be around for 10 days or so.

Just did one.

1. Was very strange being on SR again. Has been a very long time for me.

2. We were up against a Blitz, Veigar, Morgana, and Malhazar. AP monsters, and when 2 or more were together their spells just melted you no matter how much armor and resist you had. My team wasn't very good playing bot strategy.... they would not backdoor when i told them to in order to take out their inhibitors and keep them from rushing our base.... they were always reacting instead of being proactive... so we ended up losing. I reported the entire enemy team for using hacks.

Launched another and got a message, "The queue is huge. We'll get you when we get you." I gave up at minute 6.
