Won my first placement match yesterday second placement match today with Annie support, which was the correct choice, because there are too few support mains in Silver.
Got new runes on Kat and love them. Consistently winning on Kat with positive KDA's as well

did some hexakill, then a regular 5v5.
don't really get riot sometimes. They had that period where everything that gave sustain got nerfed because it was deemed too stale to play against and then they release aatrox with sustain and a revive like???????

So far, I've been learning to adapt towards the jungle since I decided to live in the lane I hate.
What are some tips that you fellow Southperrian junglers could advise towards newbies?

Mute everyone to stay focused. They will eat you alive.

[MENTION=8038]Nion[/MENTION]; I really improved my jungling by watching TheOddOne's stream. He offers pretty good advice and reasons for his choices plus he's entertaining.
I have three main recommendations:
1. Try out different tank vs damage builds and decide when to use them. For a few champs this is a no brainer, but Lizard Elder vs Spirit Golem is a crucial choice for others.
2. Ward. Ward a lot. You're the only truly roaming player on your team and vision is crucial for spotting your nemesis, the enemy jungler. Stealing their camps or ruining their ganks by turning the battle in lane.
3. Time all the buffs, dragon, and baron. These timers dictate your mid-late game grouping and require advance notice.

When would be a good time to counter jungle because I've noticed that my route usually makes me stay within my own jungle?
That and I realized I never went for the golem jungle for some odd reason.

It's very situational. Some champs like Lee are very mobile and can counter jungle pretty much as they please. Junglers with slow early clear times like Fiddle or Mao are good targets for counter jungling. Usually, you want to counter jungle when the two adjacent lanes are pushed by your allies so they can't collapse on you if you're spotted. Oh and always ward intersections in their jungles when you're staying there for long periods of time like stealing red/blue buffs. Having your summoners up while counter jungling is also very important. Out smiting the enemy or just catching them when there's is on cd can really put you ahead. Flash can save your life if someone catches you unexpectedly.
Most AP and some AD tank junglers will rush Golem. It's great for champs that aren't going to dish out a lot of damage early anyway so their ganks are mostly about them staying alive and getting some CC in like Sejuani and sometimes Vi.

After rage quitting mid and jungle (for now) i decided to main support for a little and wow it's actually a good role to carry from if i can dominate my lane hard enough (which i have been doing lmao) it renders two players on the team useless for long enough to push objectives and having utility spells is kinda fun..
kinda like having the power to decide my carries fate. hue hue.. haw hahahahahahahaha........ yep.

Very annoyed with how easily people surrender games. It's like they only want to win if it's handed to them on a silver platter, and if things look even slightly bleak, then it's surrender time.

Yeah, that's the state of mind of a lot of people. If we have even a sliver of hope of winning, and I see a 3/2 surrender vote, I will try to boost people's morale, otherwise them all ready giving up just seals the deal on our defeat. (looking at you, Coast, taking down TSM this weekend.)

Before you start ganking lanes, ask your teammates if you can kill the championa, because some people (especially the adcs) hate being ksed by junglers.

I'd like to quote Meteos.
"While you jungle, if your lanes are winning, go and fight the other jungler to stop him from helping his teammates"
This doesnt mean you have to run right into his jungle and fight the guy from 3mins in but if you ward up peoples lanes (.. yeah ward for others because they f ucking wont) you can pull off counterganks which from my experience are usually a lot more successful than actual ganks.
Also if you see the jungler bot/top without his blue/red (depending on the side of the map) check if it's there, ward his jungle and steal some pomegranate this will give you vision of him when he tries to gank your team.
When you feel a lot more confident then start trying to contest his blue and red buffs place a ward there then roam with your mid to steal it.
