[Official] DotA Gameplay Expectations & Rule Enforcement Guide

[Cards2016]

Read the expectations a few times, good post, intent on helping the team is paramount, as well as using constructive feedback

Bravo to you, MikeJones, iFuck, and everyone else for your constructive feedback. I simply quit because of the toxic players. I play Dota for fun, but when it becomes toxic game after game, the fun disappears.

I'm afraid this is a futile effort at this point... To small of a player base to actually be able to enforce bans that would make players adjust their game play. Everyone is locked into their shitty ways, its like beating a dead horse at this point. I appreciate the effort though...

We can either try to make a change or do nothing and leave everything as it is. This won't happen overnight—it will need to be a gradual process. Whether it improves things or not, I believe it’s time we take some action for the sake of those who still enjoy the game as it was meant to be played.

I 100% agree. Thank you for fighting the good fight. Godspeed.

Going to be tough to encourage bums on here to play a role.

They're only interested in pleasing themselves.

Players like Titanium will watch you die instead of voodoo/stun and then conveniently, uses finger of death for the kill right after.

Tons of bums who play on a good team expecting to get carried and pick some random shit against a team that goes silencer/omni/bara and then wonders why you can't carry them as you're getting piled on by everyone 1v5.

Players like FromCali who will never buy wards. Doesn't matter when, where, why, how, and what. He just won't buy them. You can tell him to buy it and he will say, "no gold", as if waiting 1 minute for free gold that drops into his shitty Argentinian bank is so difficult to do.

Then you have other bums like hexar, papi, superballer, etc., who you have to beg to get any type of assistance from. you have to threaten them with a ban just for them to read your message. and even then, it works maybe 25% of the time. But because people know what to expect from them every game, it's kinda like a cost of admission to play a game with them knowing if you ban even five of these rejects, the games will never start.

These players are quite obviously dumb in real life, not very much productive value in terms of intellect, and most likely their parent had a complication whilst giving birth to them. Otherwise, you can't explain the mental deficiencies going on in their head to join and play a 50 minute game to essentially miss every last hit on creeps, wander around the map, feed every game, and would only use teleport to teleport away from their teammates in a fight. Think about it; you have to beg them to help in a team game that they signed up to play and they still ignore you. Imagine having a discussion with them in real life about anything worthwhile. They are too stupid to understand anything.

These are basically rules for competitive gameplay. 90% of the players on here don't understand competition. They play DotA because it's the only thing their cheap ass computer can afford to play and the low barrier-to-entry. IMO, ENT should start charging these players to play. Why should this service be paid for and offered to these kinds of ungrateful bums? Make them pay a $5 per month fee and watch these roaches go back to playing solitaire or some shit.

I find that the higher level players in this game don't really serve a role anymore. Every game is universally the same. It's who can carry the game in spite of their bad teammates and whether or not you can farm for your items quicker than your team can go 5-40 or some shit. There is no 'team' aspect of the game. The game turned from "5v5 DotA" to "Can you carry these retards?"

Hi, Astros.

It is Bobby Turkalino here.

I have one question for you.

BUT FIRST, LET ME ASSURE ALL THE COMMUNITY: I DONT PLAY DOTA ANYMORE
(i detoxed from the game, but i search the forums, from time to time, trying to find if people are STILL crying about me, and... YEP! )

The question for you, @Astros, is: if you think that 90% of the ENT community are made of "retards", or "mental deficient roaches", why are you still here? Why do you care so much?

Hope you detox also.

ANOTHER HAPPY LANDING!
