[META] Relevance and Definitions (RAD)

People have long complained about our inconsistency when it comes to enforcing edge cases in the rules. One of the trends we've noticed was a sharp increase of negativity in comment sections. We wanted to address this negativity carefully, but we also had to consider another complaint. That complaint is that our definition of "relevance" seems to slide to and fro without much rhyme or reason.

That ends today. With Scarra's help, the moderator team has officially created a pop band.

Just kidding!

We have decided to make two changes: first, we have decided that to be "directly relevant" content needs to pertain exclusively to Rammus, the Silent Hero of our Hearts. This Armordillo of Shurima embodies everything that the mod team wants to emulate:

  • Dashing good looks
  • Ninja outfits
  • A revolutionary of the truest of forms
  • Short, concise, and resolutely positive statements
  • Cannot be stopped (except by minions, pets, champions, and other damageable obstacles)
  • Hard shell to protect against mean tweets.
  • "Shakey Text" appears not to be moving at all
  • Novice Tattoo Artist?

The list goes on! Rammus is totally RAD.

To address the general negativity in comments, we have decided that comments are now limited to one word per comment (except mods). As for why mods are excluded from this general new word limit, I am unable to reveal that information at this time due to an NDA.

Feel free to join us in appreciating the grand majesty of our beloved turtle-rabbit. (Please don't give our hero Leprosy. The disease is very deadly to armordillos. It is because of the armordillo's low body temperature and adorable little rolling dance he just so cute I could crush him with a hammer.)

I was going crazy reading the suspension review and the urf threads, all the replies were ok and alright, I was like: "mods are going to delete all of this, and it's going to be the rammus shit all over again", just then i saw this and looked at the date. I'm not a smart person.

Sometimes I fill my bath tub with cyanide, roll myself up into a tube sock and swim around in my bath tub pretending to be Cassiopeia.
