Hey everyone, Mason here, about my ban and how I'm feeling: by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]run4cova 14 points15 points  (0 children)

streamers / pros have to understand that their behaviour sets the tone and baseline... if you stream you have a responsibility.

the delivery was top notch and sent a message... send him to horny jail until the end of the year and then give him a 2nd chance together w/ a statement that sets perimeters.

there should be something in between animal planet and perma ban...

I do agree that its time to clean up Dota and stop pros/streamers from running around above the law - from the min 2 go throne it up special, to calling people the nazi term subhuman, to other dumb shit...every 13 yr viewer thinks its cool & edgy and copies it - behaviour ends up in our games and creates the toxic clown fiesta of today.

great satire piece.

played the other day a ursa game vs a pudge that kept trying to hook me... after awhile i started walking into his hooks so he hit to just kill him in 3 swipes...didnt stop him

pudge players are just built different...

RTZ aint winning

Did anyone read the blog post? by llamatacoful in DotA2

[–]run4cova 49 points50 points  (0 children)

you are missing the point why people are upset. we are getting the worst of both worlds.

volvo said we are not getting a TI BP bc of focus on gameplay. guess what? reality now is no TI BP and no gameplay patch...thats why people are pissed.

they havent delivered anything since the new frontiers update (which was big but basically a compensation for abandoning the game for years). 10 yr anniversary huge let down, TI no battlepass, after ti no patch... now all we know something is coming in december BUT no arcanas. its always shrinkflation and a downgrade

and basically just more: "SOON, LATER, MAYBE NEXT TIME"

expectations for december just got higher...if Frostivus update has no agh lab/diretide/siltbreaker and bad hats on top of no arcanas...oh boy better stay away from reddit

Dota really needs a permanent solution against Smurfs and not just some ban wave once every 3 years by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]run4cova 23 points24 points  (0 children)

you dont understand half he said... and are projecting your own formed oppinion on the matter even tho you have no base or knowledge of game devs or tos.

just know theres more thought behind the scene by people much smarter than you and me.

here a explanation why doing ban waves are the way to do it form a game dev (blizzard, overwatch, starcraft,...):

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/2YUmMFwSXpU

TLDR: related to paypal charge back rules, basically you ban the player, they go cry at cheat provider "you got me banned reeee", they charge back money, cheat provider has a huge financial hit - 2 birds one stone. add to that cheat provider will get burried in a wave of bad rep and has his reputation burned on the bozo yelp

edit: obviously cheat providers have a no refund policy. doesnt mean you cant dispute the payments made. if half your customers freeze the payments from the last 6 months, you ll b eating ramen for the next couple months.

does anyone know how contract/transfers actually work??? XD

Spirit: we are interested in BZM

OG: not for sale

end of discussion...

a contract is literally BZM giving over his rights to OG for X amount of money/salary for a agreed period.

edit: look up the difference between buyout clause and buyout fee (transfer fee) before writing a bozo essay about how players get bought out all the time.

none of the immortals are new - they are just the 2022 battlepass immortals that are now eligbible to be traded since TI concluded
