Yes and no - When you have a good working team, with a good environment, you will eventually find time/motivation for it (just like any other activity you do in real life): yes there are some cases that dont fit here, but most of them do ^^ long live the nights where ENT ajax chat was something you'd run from when certain persons were drunk online :lol:

@BeerLord take the break if you need! You are a super stable and valuable mod and it would be a big loss for ENT! Your DOTA BRs are always consistent and you actually look at circumstances and consider alternative strategies rather than just being quick to drop the ban hammer.

I know being a WC3 mod in the game with the most awesomely-toxic community is less than a thankless job, but I do appreciate the work you do (and the other mods too).

And for anyone riding the mods to work more, lay off... They do it for free and for their own "enjoyment". This is probably the best and most stable mod-team ENT has had and it is also great to see uakf.b poking around again (Arty was great too). Be careful what you wish for, since ENT had "highly dedicated" mods like nabo. and Agreements but they were power-tripping dickweeds and would steamroll all kinds of stupids changes and rules through.

Hah, that reminds me. Is anyone here ancient enough to remember Agreements?

His claim to fame is banning a guy for 1 year for flaming him ingame, and when the inevitable complaint came, deleted it :lol:

Without Beerlord, TrueChaos, and Quetra, there would be over 400 ban requests open from just the past two weeks. This isn't an opinion, it's math. No one is forcing anyone to do anything. My recommendation is simply an encouragement of the site to realize that many of their moderators are idle and obsolete. Their perspective is that "no one else is volunteering and it doesn't hurt that we have more moderators because they may come back after their two year hiatus." While I can see both sides, they are the ones who freely signed up to help and only a few are actually helping. Three mods shouldn't be completing an overwhelming 90% of the ban requests when there is a list of over 20 moderators regardless of how you want to paint the picture.

Putting up with this forum is tough, it's hard to get motivated to do it, and there's real life + having other shit you want to do. I don't fault anyone for activity levels. Though two-month old ban request is quite long to be honest.

Having a huge backlog in appeals is worse than in requests I think. I always did appeals first, which is why I have 1000+ posts there.



Edge, you were ruthless as a mod and slammed me with a 1 month frivolous ban for repeat offenses of:

All I did was
Rule player violated:
Time of incidents (Note in-game timer or replay timer): both players know each other (and they admited it, maybe friends) one of them on sentinel, another one on scourge. ezalor(pinheadlarry) sent his teammates on "hero tavern" and then his friend (meow_mix) tp there and was trying to get some kills. ezalor - intentional ruiner.
Any further thoughts: meow_mix admited all. and said that he doesn't care about ban. he plays on dotacash. hope he will get ban not only here.


We were merely enhancing the game of dota by creating cage-matches at the taverns. It was like Tekken and dota at the same time. I don't think I've ever seen a pair recreate our ezalor and wisp teammate-teleport cage matches. We only got banned because cage-match dota was too far ahead of its time in 2012. I can't see cage-match dota being a thing till at least 2040.

Eventually when dotacash died in 2013, we fell into a little bit of an awkward-situation when we realized we had to take ENT seriously and not as a toilet boil to make AMAZING game enhancements.
