    Can't tell if troll or if serious.

    I doubt they'll EVER do something as crazy as that.

    Obviously a troll. He's trying to emphasize the absurdity of minor design changes being requested when we're about to get a new client built from the ground up

    It's a joke, but it ain't trolling. Not worth explaining what I was going for.

    Edit: Screw that, I love explaining:

    Normally, when people ask for some change that someone perceives as too much, a canonical joke response is saying "Yeah, and why don't you just do [really enormous thing] too, while you're at it," because the sarcasm suggests that the proposed change would be so big that [really enormous thing] would be a simple addition. The joke here is that, in fact, the [really enormous thing] is already happening, thus apparently undermining the traditional purpose of the phrase. But, it is still somewhat applicable as a response because people were piling on tons of others suggestions. So, tonally, the response is supposed to mean "Alright guys, ease up and get this in perspective, but I still sort of agree"

    This is the worst part of explaining things.

    Ok ok, fine. I'll give you the response you deserve, but not the one you need (am I a dead man yet?).

    I thought it was funny, I know this to be true because I laughed.

    See I knew you'd naturally want to explain the joke to me, even tho I knew you we're trolling(sorta) and then brand you with the classic 'k' after you went full Kalasle on me.

    Perfectly executed I must say.

    Yeah, the "can't tell if" meme is often the call in search of a humorous clarify response, so I could tell what was going on. I just waffled about whether or not to actually go through the process. Legitimately though, the 'k' crap is awful.

    I actually miss the blue and purple names too. It gave something to play for in ranked. Now it's rewards but once you get to the top there is no higher reward.

    @Sokolov maybe we can bring these back with next patch?
